Artificial Intelligence (AI), Selling Big Cases and Challenging Economies

2023-05-23T12:00:24-04:00

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Selling Big Cases and Challenging Economies What have I learned from 30+ years of running dental businesses and having my hand in hundreds of advanced clinical practices spending tons of money on advertising in great (and not so great) economies? Well, the No. 1 business endeavor that made the most difference economically throughout these varying economies wasn’t the practices’ advertising; it was whether a practice possessed mastership level sales abilities in both sales process and sales leadership. In down economies, it meant more money from the business flow, be it from existing patients or from any and all [...]

Dentistry News and Harvard Business Review ….

2019-10-23T15:28:47-04:00

Dentistry News and Harvard Business Review …. In dentistry news it is important to keep an eye on reviews from experts in the business field. During the midst of the last recession Harvard Business Review published a review of the most important consumer trends being slowed and accelerated courtesy of the recession. A number of the accelerated trends have only sped up and become even more prominent since their report.  Ignoring this  data is bad for the business of your practice. Most dentists don't consider that the data should be considered dentistry news. It’s doubtful [...]

In Dentistry News-What’s important to know about John Kois

2019-10-23T16:27:53-04:00

In Dentistry News-What's important to know about John Kois Periodically, I make recommendations related to a variety of courses and consultants in dentistry news.  Some of these things are internal recommendations that give our member doctor’s marketplace advantages.  Others, out of an everyday concern to elevate the entire profession.  You’ll find Dr. John Kois’ presentations related to treatment planning and occlusion often mentioned in the latter.  He teaches those two from a very unique perspective—essentially how they are the grand unifiers impacting every long term decision about teeth, bone, soft tissue, and materials and how [...]

Independent Dentists worry-Are there too many dentists?

2019-10-23T16:31:03-04:00

Independent Dentists worry-Are there too many dentists? Independent dentists often ask at professional meetings "why are there too many" dentists? While the economy is in a very unfair state, Dentistry remains a great profession ESPECIALLY for those working to accumulate advantages in their local area.  This entire topic of how to create advantages that allow any dentists to win out over market unfairness is the subject matter of my latest book available at Amazon. Here are some signs of the times: *Dental school enrollment is UP.  Dentists’ kids and those in dentists’ circles of influence [...]

For the Independent Dentist -Tiny excuses = big practice sabotage given enough time.

2019-10-23T16:42:26-04:00

For the Independent Dentist -Tiny excuses = big practice sabotage given enough time. After interacting with hundreds of colleagues most as independent dentists, I've observed that the successful do and think a lot differently than those who either struggle or underachieve. This doesn't mean that the  successful independent dentists are necessarily better doctors ...but one thing is very common amongst them which is they don't buy into the excuses projected by the profession at large, things such as: "It's not as easy for me to succeed; I'm not an aggressive type of person." "I'm not [...]

Independent Dentist or Dependent?

2019-10-23T17:01:47-04:00

Dental Practice Time Management and Institutional Mindsets of Dentists Independent Dentist or Dependent ?? For US readers, the 4th of July is upon us.  It’s one of MY personal favorite holidays. This is hands-down my most lengthy communication of every year.  Probably the most important of the year as well from a “philosophical” standpoint with how one thinks and operates from a foundational understanding of what we’re born with and what we can choose to do with it. For those with the most excuses about why life is the way it is, how they have [...]

Dental Practice Advice-Amos Tversky, You, and Your Patients

2019-10-23T17:10:49-04:00

Dental Practice Advice-Amos Tversky, You, and Your Patients I bet you’ve never heard of Amos Tversky or his behavioral studies as I apply them to dental practice advice-even though just that kind of study of how your patients decide things is far more important right now to you than anything going on in dental research. During a recent podium presentation, I gave the audience an Amos Tversky survival and loss/benefit test.  The test uses a life and death health situation to point out how we are all hard wired to be influenced by how information [...]

Dental Practice Advice-The hidden unspoken agenda at major professional meetings is.... To continue on my dental practice advice regarding dental meetings and what goes on at them. Last week, we talked about how equipment makers and a supply houses via the courtesy of big marketing dollars have a virtual strong-hold on editorial content in the major journals. Now for the big professional meetings.  Why isn’t there more reality of the economics of practice being shared from the podiums? Well, next time you venture out to a major meeting, take my dental practice advice and look [...]

My dental practice advice-Visualize What You Want in Practice to Get What You Want.

2019-10-23T17:33:11-04:00

My dental practice advice-Visualize What You Want in Practice to Get What You Want. My dental practice advice to program members is .......Visualize what you want and watch it happen ! You probably visualized becoming a dentist but have you lost this valuable habit. "If you can dream it, you can achieve it." Most of us are very familiar with this 'heuristic' on the power of the human subconscious. Since Maxwell Maltz's early documentation of visualizing imagery and in numerous psych studies in today's world involving real time brain imaging, the saying is truer than [...]
