In this episode… New patients are the lifeblood of a company; therefore, every dentist wants more of them. However, an inflow of new patients doesn’t necessarily mean greater profits. So what steps can you take to turn high growth into earnings and escape the low-profit trap?

Working long hours and trying to outrun your overhead won’t bring more patients through the door. According to Dr. Bill Blatchford, what will move the needle in your business comes down to your interaction with patients. It’s crucial to ask your patients questions about their needs and figure out what they want and why they want it. And yes — this includes budget discussions. You should cater to the emotional, right-brain aspects of a patient's needs and present a comprehensive plan. Above all, you and your team have to believe that your practice is the best area for people to invest in.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Bill Blatchford has a conversation with Ed O’Keefe, Co-founder of Unlimited Leads and Consulting For Equity, about the top strategies to turn high growth into a high profit margin. Dr. Blatchford shares his methods to escape the low-profit trap, tips for catering to your patients’ needs, and why it’s important to understand your unique ability.

Dr. Drew Addy, DDS, is the Owner of Carlsbad Beach Dental. He is known for providing high-quality, minimally invasive dentistry with a personalized approach and gentle touch. His practice offers cosmetic, pediatric, orthodontic, endodontic, surgical, and implant dentistry. Dr. Addy graduated from the University of Southern California School of Dentistry and received extensive post-doctoral training working for UCLA Health. He is a member of the Academy of General Dentistry, American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, American Dental Association, California Dental Association, International Congress of Oral Implantologists, and San Diego County Dental Society.

In this episode… When was the last time you had a vacation? Are you scraping the bottom of the barrel for profits by only offering the bare minimum treatments for your patients? Don’t you wish you had more time and money?

It turns out that you can start offering more profitable treatments — and your patients will be happy about it. Rather than telling patients what to do, let them tell you what to do. Encourage them to share their dental health goals and tell you exactly how they want to look and feel. All you have to do is offer them options to get there.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Christina Blatchford is joined by Dr. Drew Addy, the Owner of Carlsbad Beach Dental, to discuss how to increase profits and client satisfaction. Dr. Addy shares the moment he realized he needed to change his dental practice, how he found the courage to overhaul business operations, and the many ways it’s paid off.

There are new clients just a click away on social media. Developing an online presence can seem intimidating at first — especially if you’re camera shy.

Before becoming a consultant, Dr. Bill Blatchford practiced dentistry for 20 years in Corvallis, Oregon.

She practices family and general dentistry in Milwaukie, OR, and has taken a Maxicourse for Implants and Cerec training. Along with her father, Dr. Bill Blatchford, she coaches a maximum of 50 dentists each year and help them reach their goals.

In this episode… Most people think of dental treatments as optional. Yes they’re healthy, but will you die if you don’t get treated? Actually, in some cases, the answer might be yes.

Sleep apnea is an underestimated health problem. Nearly one in four adults have some form of obstructive sleep apnea, and it's a contributing factor to type two diabetes, debilitating strokes, and heart attacks. As a dentist, you can help offer treatments to your patients to treat this issue. Not only will it give them a healthier lifestyle, it will also provide some extra cash flow to your business.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Chris Salierno interviews Drs. Bill and Christina Blatchford, the Co-CEO of Blatchford Solutions, about how to build your business by offering sleep apnea treatments. Dr. Bill Blatchford explains why sleep apnea is a huge problem, how to bring your team members on board, and the process of internally marketing this service. Plus, you get an exclusive excerpt from Dr. Blatchford’s book, Bringing Your ‘A’ Game 2.0.

Dr. Bill Blatchford is the Co-CEO of Blatchford Solutions, a business consultancy for dentists.

He has written several books, including Dentist’s Mighty Guide Book, Playing Your ‘A’ Game, and Blatchford Blueprints.

In this episode… Most startup dentists are told to partner with as many insurance companies as possible. Sure, insurance companies can send you endless amounts of patients. But will this actually bring you the most profit?

Dr. Bill Blatchford, a dentistry business consultant, says that when he started his dental practice in 1970 — before dental insurance existed — most dentists brought home 55 cents on the dollar. Now decades later, that number has decreased to a mere 25 cents on the dollar, in large part due to insurance companies. While insurance companies may send you a ready list of clients, most of them will only accept treatment that the insurance covers. This typically results in your schedule being packed with low-paying patients. If this is sounding familiar, you may be wondering: is there any way out of the downward spiral?

In this podcast episode, Ed O’Keefe interviews Dr. Bill Blatchford, the Co-CEO of Blatchford Solutions, about how you can escape the dental insurance trap. Dr. Blatchford explains why partnering with insurance companies is the least profitable marketing plan for dentists, how to become a “non-restricted provider,” and why learning to communicate the value of dentistry is so essential.

Perry is also a Google Ads guru, and his Google AdWords book laid the foundation for the $100 billion pay-per-click (PPC) industry. Perry is endorsed in Forbes and Inc. Magazine and is one of the most expensive business consultants in the world. Clients in 300 industries have benefited from his capacity to integrate sales, technology, art, and psychology. He has a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering and currently lives with his family in Chicago.

In this episode… Business owners spend enormous amounts of time trying to please their most difficult customers. But is that actually where you’re making the most money?

Perry Marshall believes that 80% of your company’s profits come from 20% of your clients — and not the hard-to-please ones. Rather than trying to make every customer happy or spending hours recruiting new clients, Perry suggests that you instead redouble your efforts on the existing customers that are more likely to buy your services. When you hyper-focus on your smaller but more valuable opportunities, you can start making better use of your time, energy, and money. So, how do you figure out which customers to focus on?

In this podcast episode, Dr. Bill Blatchford and Dr. Christina Blatchford are joined by Perry Marshall, the author of 80/20 Sales and Marketing, to discuss how to make more with less. Perry talks about the core concepts from his book, the benefits of hiring a personal assistant, and his tips for optimizing your marketing the right way. Stay tuned.

When it comes to leadership and decision making it's important to have a clearly defined vision.

Your vision is going to guide you in the right direction. It's going to guide you to the best decision for your office.

One statement that we hear from dentists who are thinking about joining our coaching program is "I don't think my team will be on board."

As the doctor and the person signing the checks, it's essential that you build a team that is just as committed to the vision of the practice as you are. When you have a team dedicated to the vision it allows everyone to rally around the decisions that move your practice forward.

In this episode of the podcast, we talk more about the importance of leadership and coaching around team decisions. Tune in to learn more.

A main part of the Blatchford system is a focus on giving patients what they want. It's a focus on finding out what their smile means to them.

Surprisingly this is a radical concept for many in the dental profession, and it can be difficult to implement in a dental practice. On this episode of the podcast, we are excited to introduce you to our newest consultant hygienist Denise Enos.

Denise's first experience with Blatchford Solutions is similar to the first experience many team members of dental practices have... the team trying to prove to the doctor that the new systems won't work and they should just continue with their old habits.

But some of Denise's early patient experience under the Blatchford systems quickly opened her eyes to the transformations possible following these new concepts.

Learn more about Denise's experience and welcome her to the Blatchford team on this episode!

Vacations are vital to maintaining your effectiveness as a dentist.

But too many people think about vacations in the wrong way.

They think of a vacation as a reward for hard work instead of seeing them as a preparation for being more effective.

What you do on a daily basis is physically, emotionally, and mentally draining. That's why you need to spend time recharging and reenergizing.

We recommend that you take a week off every 6 to 8 weeks.

But to do that takes some forethought and preparation...

You need to make sure your office and finances are in order.

You need to make sure your team is prepared and they are able to take abundant vacations.

In this episode we will dive into a few more important points you need to consider when planning for vacations.

I was asked by Dr. John Kois, founder of the amazing Kois Center dental training facility in Seattle, to speak to his doctors about great systems. I’m talking about the very systems that allow my clients to make more, work less, and do more of the dentistry that they love.

In this episode, you’ll learn about more than just the secrets to transforming your practice. You’re going to gain insights that can help you transform your life!

My many decades of dental consulting have shown me that most dentists work way too much. Sure, they’re making a good living, but are they really living the kind of life they want? That’s what I help my clients do—and you can hear all about it in this episode. Listen in for advice that’s practical, powerful, and proven!

In this episode, you will . . .

  • Understand why “sales” is simply finding out what people want
  • Learn the “power questions” to ask patients—even before the exam
  • See why listening to your patients has the power to transform your practice
  • Find out why getting your patients to think long-term is so important
  • Hear about ways to significantly raise your net

Without question, this is the best time to be a dentist! I base this not only on my abundance mentality but also on my nearly 50 years in dentistry. Think about it: A healthier, longer-living public that cares more than ever about the health and appearance of their teeth—what could be better for us?

Tune in to this interview for specific insights that can help you no matter where you are in your dental career. In this episode, my friend and colleague Howard Farran, DDS, MBA, interviews me on the current state of dentistry. Along the way, we cover a wide range of topics for those thinking about becoming a dentist, for recent dental school graduates, and for those who may be well into a dental career but want to improve their practice—and their life.

In this episode, you will . . .

  • Understand why I think a new graduate’s best bet is to go and buy a practice
  • Learn what I mean by “presenting ideal treatment” and how that can transform your bottom line
  • Hear how I coach dentists and what I do to get real results
  • See how better business models actually allow you to work less and make more
  • Discover a new way to think about vacations
