In this episode, Jesse Green is joined by Rob Markey, co-creator of the world-renowned Net Promoter Score (NPS) and co-author of The Ultimate Question 2.0. Together, they explore how dental practices can harness the power of customer loyalty to drive sustainable growth.

With practical insights into staff engagement, pricing, patient experience, and reputation-building, this episode is packed with tools for turning your patients into passionate advocates.

  • [00:01] Why customer loyalty is more than repeat business, and why it matters
