Straight Up With Steph

Ep 76: Is Dental Marketing a Scam?


Listen Later

Send me a message, I’d love to hear from you!

In this episode of Straight Up With Steph, I sit down with Gary Bird, founder and CEO of SMC National, to talk all things marketing in dentistry

Gary shares eye-opening insights on where dental practices lose potential patients, how to track what’s actually working, and all about AI being used in marketing.

We cover:

  • The #1 marketing metric most practices ignore (and how it’s costing you new patients)
  • Why 35% of dental calls go unanswered — and what that means for your ROI
  • The real difference between good marketing and good operations
  • The truth about AI marketing, social media, and the future of practice growth

Gary’s candid takes will make you rethink how your front desk, systems, and social strategy all connect to practice profitability.
