Thanks Benjamin Franklin for the quote in the title. We discuss the FTC contact lens rule, the telenovela that is the VSP formulary change as well as our main topic this week; have an office expertise. Sprinkle in a reddit question and a sales tip and you got yourself a Specs Appeal episode. This one went kind of lengthy because we gabbed on about VSP too long.Thanks for listening!Email: specsappealpod@gmail.comInstagram: specsappealpodSpecial thanks to Torrey for the editing!
