The Dental Marketer

In episode 85 I have the wonderful privilege to interview my guest, Andre Shirdan, who has been in the dental field and helping dental offices strive for years (if not, decades)! Andre started off working at a record store company where he quickly learned how to exceed in that field. But he didn't lear on his own, the company would sendhim out to be trained by some of the top customer services oriented people in the world who work with companies like the Ritz Carlton, Disney, and Nordstrom. Then Andre started working for a high end retail boutique store where, they too, would send him to get trained to learn higher end customer service and sales techniques. Then finally, his brother in law (who is a dentist) brought him in to help him manage his dental practice .... and the rest is... well you just have to listen to find out the rest of his story!

In this episode we learn about how to be customer focused and what it means. We hear the customer is always right but Andre says��_ "you know what the customer is NOT always right BUT the customer is the customer"��_ what does that mean?

We also talk about the philosophy of your practice. A philosophy needs to be the size of a bumper sticker��_ it should be said in 6 words. Knowing the philosophy of your dental practice is crucial. It helps you to know what type of customers you want, how you need to implement your marketing, and how to hire the right employees. Andre gives us an example of how the philosophy should be and how the thought process should begin. We discuss these topics and many more so be sure to listen up and bookmark this episode to come back and listen to it over and over again!

Thank you for tuning into episode 84 of The Dental Marketer Podcast. In this episode we get straight down to business... seriously! I had the privilege of interviewing an amazing leader, Julia Yelevich. Now, when it comes to the clinical side, Julia is informed and very knowledgable... but when it comes to the business side of dentistry, Julia is a master! Not only does she know how to market and attract patients to your office but she knows how to speak to the patients, what to offer them, how to screen for the right patients, and of course how to grow your practice!

We talk about the importance of the end game, which is providing exceptional care to your patients and community BUT also making sure you create a profit. We also discuss what Julia's years in working for Wall Street has taught her that she utilizes today and shares with all of us, and we talk about how she is growing the practice she is working in and how we can utilize her tactics as well.

I am so excited for you to hear this episode with Julia Yelevich, please feel free to reach out to her in the links below!

Andy and Linda are looking to build their own dental office soon but along the road they have encountered many mistakes that have turned into lessons. Andy is the clinical side and Linda is the business side, so it's a match made in heaven!

In this episode we touch on a lot of topics such as, why people pleasing can do you more harm than good, how to be picky with your patients, realizing that dentistry isn't all clinical... especially if you own a dental practice, what to do with bad reviews, and knowing and understanding your strengths and accepting your weaknesses.

BUT I do end up sharing valuable information (as I always try to do) on how to bring in more referrals. YOU NEED A SYSTEM! So in this Monday morning marketing episode I tell you a system that I have used countless of times with my clients and it has worked wonders! I also answer a question from one of our wonderful listeners (who asked a question on Instagram).

Anyways today I answer a question I received from Facebook in the new amazing group called The Making of a Dental Start-Up. I advise everyone to join this group, it's filled with nothing but encouragement and inspiration, especially if you are looking to do a start-up or you are already in the process.

The question is: how do I do Ground Marketing? In this episode I explain how you can start doing ground marketing and I mainly let you (the listener) know that you can find all Ground Marketing information on my website.

So yeah... but if ANY of you beautiful listeners need more information please feel free to reach out to me and let me know!

You are listening to episode 82 of The Dental Marketer Podcast! Thank you for tuning in.... Let's just dive right into it!

In this episode I pick the brain of the creator of LIVESMILEAPP.COM. In case you don't know what this wonderful app does, it helps the patient see the importance of dentistry and their oral health! How you ask? Well, listen to the episode. Here we talk about what Dr. Hanks learned when he was a dental assistant and saw over 100 new patients daily! We also hear the wonderful advice he learned in Nicaragua as well. We talk about improving the new patient experience, being active on social media and which social media platform is working for him, what he saw wrong in most of the dental practice's he worked at, and the importance of parents knowing what is going on in their child's dental visit.

One thing I love, that Dr. Hanks stresses, is the importance of slowing down. Why are you rushing your work, your treatment planning, your time with the new and existing patients... slow down.... and we dive into this topic with much more detail..... so please feel free to bookmark this episode and listen to it with your team.
