Ever wondered how you can start targeting patients who want implants? Well, in episode 11 Paola and I speak with Elijah who is co-owner of Driven Dental Marketing and he tells us exactly how his company makes it work!

Episode 10! Thank you for tuning in and listen because .. Paola Bukovcan had one of her first employees quit on the spot! Has this ever happened to you? Where an employee doesn't even give you a two week or even a weeks notice?! They just quit! Well it happen to Paola a week ago, see how she handled it.

We also discuss how much she is currently paying for rent and how much soft her whole practice is, just in case you are wondering how much rent would cost for a practice space like SLEEK.

Also, Paola is running a Facebook Ads campaign which has been going great! So we break down the process on how she set the whole thing up and why and what are the results (even though she set it up only about 12 hours before we recorded this episode).

And we talk about soccer (or Futbol for my European and South America friends... actually are Americans the only ones that call it "soccer"?!)

Episode 9 is here! When it comes to constructing YOUR perfect reception area... what do you have in mind? The way it looks? The way it feels? Do you provide the patient who may be waiting to see you with an exceptional service? Maybe give them a cappuccino and a place to charge their electronics? Or maybe you do more? How important is the reception area for you? Well ... we dive in deep into this topic! I am also curious to hear your answer and see your responses... what is the most exceptional thing you have seen or felt in a reception area at a doctors office?

We also discuss a risky topic about feminism... has it gone too far or not far enough? Listen to the experience Paola's son experienced this week and what would you have done?
