Queen of Dental Hygiene
NOVEMBER 3, 2024

What does “rich” mean to you? When we think of being “rich,” our thoughts automatically go to a large bank account. However, there is much more than just that number to be truly rich in life. For example, is your current primary focus to get new patients in the door and keep your schedule full? If so, you are probably starting to feel tired of the daily grind, spending long hours behind the chair and dreaming of your next vacation—or retirement.

A turnaround is just what it sounds like: turning your practice from being flat or declining back to growth. Even if you don’t necessarily want to grow your practice, if you don’t at least grow at the level of inflation, your profit and income will deteriorate, and your practice will be at risk.
