In today's episode, I sit down with Doug Martin, founder of InD Eyewear, a private label frame line exclusive to PECAA members. Every day consumers purchase private label products and goods. Offering these types of products to your patients dramatically impacts your practices profitability while delivering a product your patients will love.
