The PPP continues to evolve. I called Chris and asked him to give us an update and here is what he had to say. Thank you Chris for sharing your knowledge! 

Managing debt is key to financial success and freedom. However, if not monitored debt can get out of control. In this episode Chris discusses how we can better manage the debt in our practices and make some common sense recommendation we should all follow.

In this episode Chris talks about setting up 7-9 accounts to move your money and make it easy to track and manage.  As each of us tighten our belts during this time understanding cash flow is paramount for success.

I finally get to sit down with Dr. Cody Mast and talk about emerging business models pediatric dentists can consider to help meet the changes brought about by the emerging DSO market. Dentistry was changing before COVID, and the economic ramifications of a nationwide shutdown will continue to be felt for sometime. Join us as we talk about his story about building a group practice of over 15 offices with a TEAM of partners who all share the same goal. Cody is a passionate pediatric dentist who shares a number of amazing pearls that will help all of us to be successful! 

In this podcast I interview Dr. Max Sulla, a private practitioner from New Jersey. This is the first of a series of interviews from pediatric dentists across the country open to sharing their story. Max is passionate about organized dentistry and makes a strong case for why we need to be involved. Pediatric dentists are a special group and we need to stay connected more than even during this time. 

Bobby and Phil talk about how to have critical conversations with TEAM members, how to have corrective conversations, and how to manage these moments in a positive way that helps build up your TEAM. 

This is a fun episode about a topic we don't often talk about, dental equipment. I still down with Mr. Matt McLaughlin, Senior Territory Sales Manager for Midmark.

Julie and I discuss why and how you transition your practice to a PTO system (Paid Time Off). This is a common question and Julie offers some great insights about how this works in our office. 

In this episode I get to interview Dr. Gerry Samson for what I think is his first official podcast! Gerry is a lifelong learner, educator, and tribal elder.

Pediatric Dental Marketing can be overwhelming. How do we know the services we are paying for are working? What is SEO? What makes a great website work?
