on a more positive note..

A delightful conversation with a Scottish Practice Manager this morning, reviewing progress since my last practice visit on 9th February 2010:

  • all new patients now seen and triaged by the two principals
  • happy associate attending implant training course
  • whitening wednesdays has been a roaring success
    • all whitening appointments delivered by hygiene team under supervision
    • strong sales of power plus trays at £325 and trays at £150
  • book-keeper in and ploughing through Sage
  • monthly financial reports in place
    • profit & loss
    • key performance indicators
    • average daily production versus target
  • all prices up by 10%

This information shared by the PM whilst the owners are enjoying a long weekend.And to top it all…..

March was a record “best ever” sales month for this practice, which opened in 1987 and relocated in 2006.

I feel very proud to have been a catalyst in this process.

I’m due back on 9th June and looking forward to the next move forward.

We will be discussing how to “super-zone” the diary to improve profits without inconveniencing the patients.

Its a pleasure to be in the company of “winners”.

Clients who think that their dental business has a bigger future, who genuinely appreciate their patients, their team and their business coach.

Fresh air.
