When repeat FTR guest, Katlin Cauffman, founder of Diamond Accelerator, sits down with Dr. Tiphany Hall live at Aesthetic Next 7.0, the message is clear: if you think only injectors drive revenue, you’re missing the mark.

Katlin’s spent years turning aesthetic practices into profitable, well-oiled machines. In this episode, she shares exactly how high-performing teams hit their numbers—not by working harder, but by working smarter.

From Front Desk to Injector: Everyone’s in Sales

Katlin challenges one of the industry’s biggest misconceptions: that revenue starts and ends with injectors. In truth, every role contributes to the bottom line—from your MA to your front desk to your practice manager.

Her advice? Define measurable KPIs for each role and start tracking them. Something as simple as monitoring rebooking rates can increase performance by 10% overnight. When teams align behind shared goals, practices routinely hit 75–80% rebooking rates—often enough to meet revenue targets without adding new patients.

Revenue Per Hour: The New Success Metric

If there’s one number every practice should know, it’s revenue per hour. Katlin reveals that half of what affects this number has nothing to do with skill—it’s about systems, pricing, scheduling, and support. Sometimes, the path to higher profit isn’t more training—it’s better structure.

The MA Advantage

Adding a medical assistant can be the fastest way to double injector revenue. When used strategically—with clear SOPs and shared expectations—an MA allows the injector to stay focused on patient interaction while the assistant handles prep, education, and room flow. The result: better utilization, smoother visits, and higher hourly output.

But Katlin warns: “Hiring an MA isn’t magic—you have to give them a playbook.” Without structure, you just add cost. With it, you add capacity.

Talk About Money (Like It’s Your Job)

Too many providers shy away from financial discussions. Katlin calls that a missed opportunity.

If you spend 30 minutes building trust with a patient, you shouldn’t hand off the pricing conversation to the front desk. Instead, lead the financing talk confidently—“this could be as low as $89 a month”—and watch conversion rates climb.

Empowering providers to own the money conversation transforms consultations into closed treatment plans.

Recruitment & Culture: Build the Team You Want

Katlin and Tiphany also tackle recruiting and retention in a competitive market. Top injectors aren’t just chasing commission—they want culture, vision, and growth.

Katlin recommends having a “Why Work Here” deck ready year-round so you’re always recruiting intentionally, not reactively. When the right person walks in, you’ll already be ready to hire.

The Mindset That Changes Everything

At the heart of Katlin’s philosophy is ownership. Growth doesn’t happen by accident—it’s built through intentional leadership, transparent tracking, and a team aligned behind the same metrics.

Key Takeaways

• Growth starts with ownership and mindset.

• Every role drives revenue—define and track it.

• Rebooking is a team sport, not a front desk task.

• Hiring an MA can double revenue when structured properly.

• Providers must own the financing conversation.

• Revenue per hour is the clearest window into performance.

• Build recruiting systems that attract culture-fit talent year-round.
