Meet our mystery guest "Albert". A fantastic guy, Albert is an average practice owner. He knows all the right answers and even recites them on command. But knowing is not doing. Can Matt help him see things for how they really are; and bridge the gap between knowing and doing? Listen as Albert pulls his practice out of the 'average' rut.

Payton and George take on an interview with real-recent-graduate, fake name "Christian". Transitioning from the construction industry, he's familiar with managing teams. When George finds him comparing two wildly different practices, we start talking mission and vision. Is Christian gonna pursue the lower value practice that needs rehabbing to hit his goals, or the more expensive one with existing cashflow?

You'll hear Matt and George disagree on the highlights (and lowlights) of this particular interview. But first: Having discovered Sarah's vision and her startup's sheer growth potential, George now dives into a tactical approach; reconciling reality to her vision of a group model by adding three key staff.

Seven years out of dental school, our guest "Ron Swanson" now plans on owning a practice that has been in his family for years. Grateful to his father (and father's business partner) for mentoring him up to this point, he now turns to Tyler and George for help breaking through the expectations put on him by the generation before. When Ron owns the practice, will he own the vision?

At the end of the last episode, we brought the idea that growth *is* pain. When George explains the possible extent of the pain (especially in the beginning of our growth) we have to ask ourselves: Is it all worth it?

George appreciates Sarah's practice style so much that he says, in passing, "Startups are cool" (you heard it here first, folks). What makes him absolutely drool over doing this interview? First, she doesn't depend on her practice for her personal expenses, and second, she has lots of moving parts to manipulate to her favor. Listen as George analyzes her progress to ensure Sarah's practice stays awesome.

An anonymous guest "Virgil" joins us today. A new graduate, Virgil already has an abundant mindset, and a good mix of clinical ability. He sees no reason to stay with his diffident employer, and instead wants to buy a practice. One option is from a referadontist in his area. This one has plenty of headroom to add more codes instead of constantly referring them out. Plenty of headroom to add more codes = plenty of headroom to add more revenue!

Richard and George join forces to host the entirely of Season 6: Growth! Today, their two colossal personalities again reunite in a brotherly clash. This gives rise to newly developed, fundamental questions; helping us hone our vision, our practice style, and our growth.

Alex Sharp joins George and Matt today as we launch our Mastermind to the public! As the go-to example of someone who successfully acquired a practice after learning principles we share, Alex, our new Director of Mastermind, is happy to help roll out that success to all who would enjoy it. We're providing a formal place to incubate relationships with the brightest, growth-minded leaders in the industry. Welcome to Mastermind.

Grab a notepad for this one 📝. George and Clay join Tyler today. As you transition into practice ownership, it's so easy to hopelessly foul up everything about insurance. After one of Clay's predicaments is brought to light, George teaches insurance specifics: credentialing, letters of interest, questions to ask, first actions. This doesn't have to be a big, scary, complicated thing--but it does have to be done right.
