Most practice owners think team struggles come from staffing shortages, difficult personalities, or lack of motivation, but Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen challenge that assumption head-on. Dr. Pete frames the conversation around identifying the primary constraint limiting growth, while Dr. Stephen focuses on accountability as the force that turns busyness into productivity. Together, they unpack the “four rights” of building a high-performing team: right people, right positions, right work, and right way.   Getting these “4 Rights” right starts with your hiring process.  Set Expectations and Agreements early in the relationship - and make sure that they understand that your business is a “High Accountability" environment.  Along the way, they reveal why A-Players thrive in accountable cultures, how unclear expectations quietly sabotage scalability, and why stronger leadership systems create greater focus, healthier culture, and sustainable growth. In This Episode You Will Learn: Why many teams stay busy all day while producing surprisingly little movement  The hidden reason accountability systems fail even when leaders think they're “clear”  A sharper framework for identifying whether the issue is the person, the seat, or the work itself  What happens when A players are surrounded by unclear expectations and weak ownership  The surprising connection between focus, productivity, profitability, and team alignment Episode Highlights 01:35 - A powerful vision emerges around identifying the single team constraint quietly limiting growth and scalability  02:43 - Counterintuitive insight reveals why most practice owners have a focus problem instead of an effort problem  04:21 - Accountability gets reframed as the force that transforms motion into measurable movement  05:44 - A deeper look at A players exposes why great team members actually demand accountability  07:07 - Positioning takes center stage as leaders confront the costly mistake of placing people outside their zone of genius  08:37 - Practical strategy separates roles, responsibilities, and outcomes into a framework teams can actually execute 10:56 - A sharp hiring distinction reveals why CEOs should stop selling candidates into the job  14:45 - A compelling leadership challenge emerges around creating measurable ownership instead of vague expectations  16:49 - Early hiring mistakes expose how fast-moving CEOs unintentionally sabotage team quality  21:00 - Vision for a world-class team comes alive through the metaphor of a band where every player owns their role  22:35 - The real financial cost of weak accountability surfaces through productivity, profitability, and team optimization metrics 27:58 - Stephanie Dove Blake from Success Partner Social Sparrow joins Dr. Pete to share her personal journey from witnessing the impact of chronic pain to helping chiropractors reach more patients through digital marketing.

Most practice owners do not have a revenue problem early on. They have an allocation problem. Dr. Lona and Dr. Eric DiMartino discuss why treating revenue as personal income too soon often slows practice growth, and why the real challenge is learning to deploy money strategically into marketing, coaching, systems, and team development. They explore the common tendency to spend emotionally, hoard cash out of fear, or delay key investments that create momentum. The conversation connects these decisions to everyday practice realities such as patient acquisition, retention, staffing, leadership development, and long-term vision. When doctors learn to view revenue as fuel rather than validation, they create stronger systems, make better decisions, and build a practice that produces both growth and freedom. Key Highlights 02:20 – Why some doctors struggle financially long before revenue becomes the real issue. 03:59 – The difference between survival, stability, and scale, and why confusing them creates costly decisions. 06:01 – A deeper look at the investment many practice owners stop making too soon. 08:15 – What happens when a growing practice treats marketing like an expense instead of a responsibility. 08:39 – The reality of relying solely on referrals when your vision requires something bigger. 11:49 – Why strong lead generation can still leave a practice feeling stuck. 12:19 – The lesson behind the "dumb taxes" that many owners pay on their way to growth. 14:20 – What many doctors overlook when balancing caution, confidence, and personal spending. 16:25 – The connection between freedom, systems, and the people you choose to invest in. 21:52 – Why the ability to delay rewards often shapes the opportunities available years later. 24:21 - Dan Anticich from Success Partner Twoconnect, joins Dr. Andrew to discuss how chiropractic practices can improve lead conversion, patient reactivation, and operational efficiency through dedicated offshore support. They explore how virtual team members help practices protect marketing investments, strengthen patient communication, reduce administrative workload, and create scalable systems that support sustainable growth.   Resources Mentioned For more information about Two Connect please visit: https://twoconnect.com.au To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Lona: https://go.oncehub.com/DrLonaBuildPodcast To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Bobby: https://go.oncehub.com/DrBobbyBuildPodcast Learn more about the Remarkable CEO Podcast:  https://theremarkablepractice.com/podcast

Why Retention Is The Real Growth Strategy  Most practices assume retention problems start when patients stop showing up, but the real breakdown happens much earlier. Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack why patient compliance is the hidden constraint limiting growth, referrals, scalability, and long-term impact. Through a practical framework built around strong starts, clear agreements, and patient understanding, they reveal how retention is not a motivation problem but a communication and systems problem. The conversation explores how practices create “wanting,” why compliance drives every major business metric, and how better patient stewardship creates stronger outcomes, deeper loyalty, and sustainable growth.   In This Episode You Will: Why many practices mistake new patient problems for the real operational leak quietly draining momentum and revenue  The hidden reason patient retention collapses long before someone officially drops out of care  A smarter way to think about compliance that transforms it from pressure into partnership What happens when patients fully understand the cause of their recurring health patterns  An important distinction between setting expectations and creating true agreements inside the patient journey Episode Highlights 02:01 - A compelling challenge emerges to stop chasing every problem and identify the one constraint capable of pulling the entire practice forward.  02:48 - Retention takes center stage as the overlooked driver behind better outcomes, stronger referrals, and sustainable revenue growth.  06:25 - An uncomfortable truth surfaces as retention is exposed as the area where even high-performing practices often struggle most.  08:03 - A deeper look at compliance reveals why patient follow-through is the leading indicator of long-term retention and retained revenue.  13:33 - The conversation introduces four critical agreements that determine whether a patient relationship begins with alignment or hidden friction.  15:50 - A sharp distinction reveals how weak retention is often the symptom of a weak start rather than a failure later in the patient journey.  19:18 - Dr. Stephen reframes conversion as a dialogue built around ownership, goals, and a clearly defined path forward.  21:12 - The hidden power of “wanting” emerges as the bridge between patient interest and long-term commitment to care.  23:23 - A practical metaphor illustrates how consistent momentum compounds when patients understand the value of staying in rhythm.  24:18 - The real breakthrough appears when patients connect recurring health challenges to the daily habits and stresses that keep recreating them.  29:53 - A deeper understanding of care becomes the turning point where compliance evolves into genuine belief and long-term retention.  31:19 - Scalability is redefined through retention as the conversation connects compliance, patient loyalty, and sustainable business growth. 34:06 - Dr. Lona sits down with Glen David from Success Partner Davlen Designs to explore how smarter clinic design can drive practice growth without adding square footage. Glen shares how strategic use of space, workflow optimization, and data-driven planning help practices improve efficiency, enhance patient experience, and create greater capacity to serve more people while scaling sustainably.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Davlen Design please visit: https://www.davlendesign.com/  Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

What do high school debate team, chemistry labs, law school burnout, and credit card points all have in common?Apparently… they can all lead to becoming a startup CEO.In this episode of The Inventive Journey, Devin Miller sits down with Travis Cormier to unpack one of the most unconventional entrepreneurial journeys we've featured on the show. Travis shares how his path evolved from “super nerd” debate competitor to aspiring astrophysicist, law school student, chemist, freelance writer, COO, and eventually CEO of a rapidly growing media company.Along the way, Travis reveals the pivotal moments that shaped his career — including the realization that prestige and fulfillment are not always the same thing.After initially pursuing law school with dreams of working in a major firm, Travis quickly discovered that the lifestyle attached to those prestigious careers didn't align with the life he actually wanted. Hearing attorneys proudly describe their ability to work until midnight from home while “only” working three weekends per month became a wake-up call that forced him to reconsider his future.That decision eventually led him back into chemistry, where he built a stable career while quietly exploring entrepreneurial opportunities on the side.Then came the Maldives honeymoon.When Travis and his wife began planning their honeymoon, he discovered just how expensive luxury travel could be. Instead of giving up, he became obsessed with learning how travel rewards and credit card points worked. That curiosity introduced him to the travel media world and ultimately opened the door to freelance writing opportunities.What started as side income soon evolved into something much larger.Travis climbed from freelance contributor to editor, then into operational leadership before becoming COO of the business. Over the next several years, the company experienced explosive growth — scaling roughly 1,400% while growing its team and expanding its audience through strategic community building.Today, Travis serves as CEO and is helping guide the company through its next phase of operational maturity and long-term sustainability.Throughout the conversation, Travis shares valuable lessons about:Career pivots and professional identityEscaping prestige trapsStartup growth and scalingCommunity-driven business modelsLeadership transitionsOperational strategyTesting business ideasKnowing when to kill products that no longer serve the businessBuilding sustainable entrepreneurial momentumOne of the biggest takeaways from this episode is the importance of finding the lane your business can truly own.While many brands chase every possible growth channel, Travis explains how their company focused heavily on community-building — particularly within Facebook groups — and turned that focus into a major competitive advantage.He also discusses one of the hardest entrepreneurial realities: sometimes founders become emotionally attached to products or ideas that customers simply do not want.That lesson became painfully clear after realizing one product they loved internally had only a handful of active users while still costing thousands of dollars per month to maintain.As Travis explains, passion matters — but market demand matters more.This episode is packed with honest insights for founders, entrepreneurs, career changers, and anyone trying to figure out how to align ambition with lifestyle design.If you've ever questioned your career path, wondered whether prestige is worth the tradeoffs, or tried to navigate the uncertainty of entrepreneurship, this conversation will resonate deeply.Because sometimes the journey to becoming a CEO doesn't begin with a startup accelerator…Sometimes it begins with trying to afford a honeymoon.To chat about this one-on-one, grab a free consult at strategymeeting.com

What if the biggest growth opportunity in a chiropractic business isn't more marketing, more hours, or more staff, but simply maximizing what already exists?

Step into Episode 214 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Jeremiah, Air Force veteran, mortgage broker, and multi-unit franchisee of Jeremiah's Italian Ice, for a candid conversation about building multiple businesses, staying grounded through discipline, and why family-focused frozen treats are a surprisingly powerful vehicle for entrepreneurship. From opening his first location next to Corona del Sol High School in Chandler to expanding with a drive-through near Cardinal Stadium in Glendale, Jeremiah brings real talk on what it takes to run two companies at once without letting either one fall apart.The conversation covers Jeremiah's remarkable origin story — born in Guyana, raised in Brooklyn, trained as an Air Force veteran, and pivoting from aviation to mortgages to franchising — and why he's never once thought about retiring. Delo and Jeremiah go deep on the parallels between brokering mortgages and brokering insurance, the importance of systems and high-trust relationships with your team, and why "autopilot culture" is the fastest route to a failing business.

What actually makes someone magnetic in their community for nearly 40 years in practice? In this conversation, Dr. Lona sits down with Dr. Mary Frye to unpack the mindset, conviction, and communication strategies that consistently attract new patients into chiropractic care. Dr. Mary shares how screenings, doctor reports, referral systems, and simple one-on-one conversations have allowed her to continually grow her practice without relying on expensive marketing. But underneath the tactics is a much deeper theme: when chiropractors stop making practice about themselves and fully commit to telling the truth about health and healing, people respond differently, referrals grow naturally, and practice becomes far more sustainable and joyful long term. Key Highlights 02:23 – Hear why someone 39 years into practice still wakes up passionate about chiropractic and how conviction around truth and healing continues to fuel the mission. 03:25 – Discover the story that shaped an entire philosophy on chiropractic after a father lived in a back brace for 20 years before chiropractic changed his life. 06:16 – Learn why screenings remain a favorite way to attract new patients and how one-on-one conversations create stronger trust and connection. 07:03 – Understand why most people still don't fully understand chiropractic even if they've seen a chiropractor before and how education changes patient commitment. 08:27 – Hear why staff are trained to “collect nos” during screenings and how removing fear of rejection improves confidence and conversions. 09:27 – Discover the types of community events preferred for screenings and why health-conscious environments like gyms create stronger opportunities for connection. 11:31 – Learn how faith, purpose, and detachment from outcomes reduce stress during patient conversations and help chiropractors communicate more authentically. 12:49 – Understand how turning one patient into an entire family under care creates exponential practice growth and why chiropractors must confidently invite families into care. 15:44 – Hear the “Four Card Friday” referral system and why planting seeds consistently creates long-term community impact. 18:48 – Discover the defining lesson learned in chiropractic school when a mentor taught that practice growth stops becoming difficult when chiropractors stop making it about themselves. 21:56 - Nadine Brunet from Success Partner Platinum Systems joins Dr. Chris to discuss the launch of Platinum Cloud, an AI-powered chiropractic software platform built to simplify workflows, reduce administrative tasks, and improve efficiency for practices. They explore agentic AI, integrated tools, seamless onboarding, and how Platinum Systems is helping chiropractors future-proof their clinics with smarter technology.

spent $135,000 to spend the day with Alex Hormozi.  Here's what he taught me about the conversion process and selling chiropractic care.  If patients are not saying yes to care, the problem may not be your passion, your systems, or even your recommendations - it's your offer.  Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen break down why so many chiropractors struggle to convert despite deeply believing in what they do. Drawing from Dr. Stephen's recent coaching experience with Alex Hormozi and the framework of the irresistible offer, this conversation unpacks the four factors that shape every conversion decision: dream outcome, perceived likelihood of achievement, time delay, and effort and sacrifice. From learning how to stop selling process and start selling transformation to creating a patient journey that feels clear, trustworthy, and achievable, this episode gives chiropractors a practical roadmap for increasing conversion, strengthening certainty, and helping more people commit to care with confidence. In This Episode You Will: Understand why conversion constraints often begin with an unclear offer.  Learn how to sell the transformation instead of the process.  Discover the four parts of an irresistible patient offer.  Clarify how trust, proof, and certainty increase patient belief.  See how a clear roadmap makes care feel easier to commit to. Episode Highlights 01:04 - Identify why the question is not whether conversion has a constraint, but where that restraint is showing up. 04:12 - Discover how an irresistible offer becomes the first lens for diagnosing a stalled conversion process. 05:55 - Clarify why patients do not buy services, systems, or procedures before they believe in the transformation. 09:36 - Recognize how selling the outcome changes the emotional weight of the entire conversion conversation. 13:10 - Explore the four-part value equation that shapes whether a patient says yes or hesitates. 18:26 - Understand why conversion becomes a skill when the dream outcome is made specific, emotional, and compelling. 23:32 - Reveal how proof, testimonials, and certainty increase a patient's belief that care can work for them. 27:05 - Examine how time delay becomes a conversion restraint when patients cannot see a faster path to results. 29:19 - Differentiate between a hard process and a supported process that makes commitment feel possible. 34:42 - Recognize how the right offer combines accountability, support, and clarity into a decision patients can trust. 36:15 - As a Success Partner, Chiro-Ads Academy brings a powerful, in-house approach to digital marketing that helps practices take control of new patient acquisition. As Dr. Eric sits down with Dr. Travis Stewart, the conversation reveals how early struggles with inconsistent agency results led to a proven system that lowers lead costs, improves conversion, and drives predictable growth through trust-based advertising and data-driven decision-making. If you are ready to create consistent, scalable growth you will want to explore how this system can transform your practice.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Chiro Ads please visit: www.makingmuvs.com/TRP Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

What if success meant living authentically rather than chasing the next milestone? Anna Lundberg sits down with Nick Whitnell - coach, writer, and host of nature-based gatherings - to explore how he re-engineered his work and life around values, self-compassion, and real human connection, all while still paying the bills and putting the bins out. Key Takeaways Success as authenticity, not achievement: Nick shares how he moved from measuring success by salary and status to defining it as living truthfully and treating himself and others with compassion. Re-engineering income and lifestyle: Instead of scaling up to match a growing salary, Nick worked backwards - asking what he actually needed to live well, and building his work around that. The fringe business model: Coaching, nature-based gatherings, monthly events at Patch in Bournemouth, and a weekly newsletter - Nick refuses to fit into a neat marketing box, and explains why that's a deliberate choice. Building trust through depth, not performance: Why consistency, credibility, and showing up as yourself beats algorithm-chasing every time, even if growth is slower. Working with the parts of you that hold you back: Drawing on Internal Family Systems, Nick explains how procrastination and people-pleasing often have good intentions - and what happens when you stop shaming those parts. If this conversation has you rethinking how your business is set up, let's talk.

What actually allows chiropractors to stay excited about practice 20 years in instead of burning out?  In this conversation, Dr. Lona sits down with Dr. Carla LeClerc to unpack the realities of long-term practice growth, leadership, mentorship, and building a chiropractic business that keeps evolving. Dr. Carla shares stories from opening practice, surviving major setbacks like flood damage and 2020 shutdown pressures, building a strong team, and eventually growing into a teaching clinic with associate doctors and students. The conversation repeatedly comes back to one central idea: practices continue growing when chiropractors stay playful, stay mission-driven, and continue pouring into people instead of building everything around themselves. Key Highlights 02:49 – Hear why Dr. Carla says practice becomes more fun over time and how strong team culture, shared values, and staying connected to chiropractic keep long-term practice sustainable. 04:12 – Discover how one screening conversation at CVS turned into a 20-year patient relationship and why chiropractors can never underestimate the impact of one conversation. 05:59 – Learn why Dr. Carla teaches her team to always think about “the one person” during screenings and how purpose-driven outreach creates more authentic communication. 07:21 – Understand why staying playful in practice matters more than waiting for future success milestones and how joy and energy directly affect long-term growth. 09:50 – Hear why Dr. Carla wishes she hired an associate doctor earlier and how associate growth creates more leverage, support, and durability inside a practice. 11:30 – Learn why building a practice around personality instead of systems eventually limits growth and why leadership requires building a mission bigger than yourself. 12:43 – Discover the leadership lesson Dr. Carla learned from keeping the wrong team member too long and how tolerance eventually impacts culture and momentum. 14:59 – Hear Dr. Carla share her vision for the next 20 years of practice including building a stronger teaching clinic and mentoring more chiropractors. 16:12 – Understand why chiropractic needs more students, more mentors, and more successful business owners to expand the profession and create greater community impact. 19:23 – Learn why business mentorship after chiropractic school is critical and how learning entrepreneurship inside a functioning clinic shortens the learning curve for young doctors. 22:23 - Dr. Eric sits down with Jeff Van Kampen from Success Partner Clinic Growth Accelerator to explore how chiropractic practices are using Meta ads, data tracking, and lead qualification systems to create more predictable patient growth.

Your practice is stuck because you don't have enough Qualified Leads to take you to the next level.  In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the first and often most common bottleneck in practice growth: the inability to consistently attract the right people with the right message at the right time. Through the lens of the Theory of Constraints, they reveal why marketing struggles are rarely solved by simply “doing more marketing” and instead require deeper clarity around purpose, messaging, ideal patient profiles, and measurable systems. From refining the market message that cuts through the noise to understanding Marketing Spend, CAC (Cost to Acquire a Customer) and “Buyer Readiness”, this episode provides a strategic framework for chiropractors who want to stop spraying and praying and start building predictable attraction systems that scale influence, income, and patient impact. In This Episode You Will: Understand why attraction constraints are often the hidden bottleneck in practice growth. Discover how purpose, mission, and vision shape effective marketing systems.  Learn how to create messaging that cuts through marketplace noise and increases readiness.  Clarify the difference between random marketing activity and measurable lead generation.  See how metrics like CAC and LTV create confidence, scale, and strategic decision-making.   Episode Highlights 01:44 - Identify how one primary constraint can quietly suppress growth across an otherwise healthy practice. 03:54 - Discover why true transformation begins when education unlocks awareness rather than simply delivering information. 05:28 - Recognize how unresolved attraction constraints keep practices stuck even when effort and intention remain high. 08:16 - Explore why great coaching often reveals hidden solutions that were already within reach. 11:12 - Clarify why the problem behind the problem must be solved before marketing tactics can produce meaningful growth. 14:23 - Uncover how defining an ideal client profile changes the precision and effectiveness of attraction strategies. 16:36 - Examine the three-part messaging equation required to cut through marketplace noise and create urgency. 18:06 - Reveal how trust-building systems increase patient readiness long before a conversion conversation begins. 20:38 - Differentiate between inconsistent marketing activity and the disciplined repetition required to create momentum. 27:31 - Understand why data-driven marketing eliminates stress and creates confidence in scaling patient acquisition. 28:43 - Dr. Rachel is joined by Dr. Kendall Price of Success Partner Elevate Marketing to unpack what it really takes to turn marketing into a true growth system for modern practices. They explore how Elevate moves beyond generic campaigns by blending brand identity with proven strategies, building trust through every step of the patient journey, and optimizing for real outcomes like patient show rates, not just leads. When marketing becomes intentional, relational, and data-driven, growth shifts from unpredictable to scalable and sustainable.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Elevate Marketing please visit: https://goelevatemarketing.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

What does it take to build a serious Torah legacy while running a thriving dental practice in Manhattan? Reuven Mohl has spent the last decade doing exactly that — and the results are five published books, a growing body of scholarship, and a model for what it looks like to take your Torah life seriously without stepping away from the working world.In this episode, Reuven walks us through his upbringing in Manhattan Beach, Brooklyn, where his father Rabbi Oscar Mohl — a philosophy professor, Holocaust survivor, and talmid of the Baba Vredi — set the tone for a home where Torah and ideas were always on the table. From Yeshiva Flatbush to Yeshiva HaKotel to YU, Reuven shares how his years of learning shaped both his character and his career path into dentistry.We talk about the discipline behind building a successful practice, how he carved out time for serious learning between patients, and what led him to compile commentaries on the Haggadah, Megillas Rus, and Tehillim using the writings of Rabbi Eliezer Berkovitz and Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik.And in honor of Shavuos, we learn together. Reuven shares a beautiful lesson from Megillas Rus on the difference between din and lifnim mishurat hadin — and what Boaz's generosity in the field teaches us about how to show up at work, at home, and in life.Topics covered:Growing up with a philosophy professor father and a Holocaust survivor in the homeThe work-life balance reality of a dental careerHow to pursue serious Torah scholarship while running a businessBuilding commentaries using the Rav and Rabbi BerkovitzMegillas Rus and the obligation to do more than the minimumThe story of calling before Shabbos

What actually allows a chiropractic practice to keep growing without the owner doctor becoming the bottleneck? In this episode, Dr. Lona and Dr. Rachel break down the real mechanics behind building a successful broken white line practice and why more chiropractors are moving toward shared care models. They unpack the mindset shifts required to move from “my patients” to “our patients,” how to communicate associate transitions without losing trust, and why practices centered too heavily around one doctor's personality eventually limit growth. The conversation stays practical around onboarding, patient communication, doctor flow, scheduling, and team systems, while reinforcing the bigger reality: when chiropractic becomes the center of the relationship instead of the individual doctor, practices become more scalable, adaptable, and sustainable long term. Key Highlights 01:08 – Hear why broken white line practices create more freedom for chiropractors and how vacations feel completely different when patient care continues seamlessly without the owner doctor present. 02:21 – Learn why preparing for a multi-doctor practice starts long before hiring an associate through systems, communication, and patient expectation setting. 04:08 – Discover the moment Dr. Lona realized the power of a broken white line model when the practice continued serving people successfully without her physically in the office. 05:16 – Understand why the shift from “my patients” to “our patients” is the defining mindset change required for a successful shared-care practice. 06:27 – Learn how to position associate doctors as an advantage to patients instead of a disruption by emphasizing collaboration, multiple perspectives, and continuity of care. 09:55 – See why slow onboarding creates stronger patient trust and how introducing associates gradually helps practices avoid resistance and confusion. 12:33 – Hear practical language new associates can use to enter established patient relationships gracefully while still building confidence and authority. 15:25 – Discover how broken white line practices become significantly more efficient operationally when doctors separate adjusting, reports, and patient management responsibilities. 19:17 – Understand why practices built around one doctor's personality struggle to scale and how shifting the focus back to chiropractic creates healthier growth. 21:30 – Learn why communication systems become non-negotiable in multi-doctor clinics and how meetings, alerts, and doctor collaboration improve patient trust and retention.

You don't have an effort problem - you have a FOCUS problem.  Most practices aren't stuck because of a lack of effort, they're stuck because they're solving the wrong problems in the wrong order. In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete introduce the concept of the primary constraint and challenge the idea of “priorities” by reframing success around singular focus. Through the lens of the accountability grid and the five domains of business, they lay the foundation for a new way of thinking about growth: identifying, sequencing, and solving the one constraint that matters most right now. This episode sets the strategic framework for eliminating overwhelm, creating clarity, and unlocking the next level of performance. The payoff is a shift from reactive problem-solving to intentional, CEO-level decision making that drives real momentum. In This Episode You Will: Understand why solving multiple problems keeps you stuck Learn the difference between constraints and symptoms Discover how to identify your single primary constraint See why sequencing problems is the key to growth Clarify how to think like a CEO instead of an operator Episode Highlights 01:55 - Recognize that every business faces multiple challenges, yet one primary constraint ultimately determines growth trajectory 03:55 - Understand the distinction between having many problems and identifying the single priority that creates leverage 08:40 - Discover that most growth plateaus are caused by a lack of focus rather than a lack of effort 09:05 - Explore the CEO's role as the “human magnifying glass” directing energy and resources toward one outcome 11:10 - Examine how concentrated focus ignites momentum instead of spreading effort across multiple weak initiatives 16:03 - Identify the importance of sequencing constraints rather than attempting to solve everything simultaneously 17:31 - Differentiate between symptoms and true constraints when moving to the next level of growth 18:21 - Clarify how the five domains of business align with the patient journey and operational structure 22:12 - Reveal the hidden cost of ignoring constraints in both impact and income 25:21 - Uncover the most common primary constraints across attraction, conversion, retention, team, and money 27:48 - Dr. Eric DiMartino is joined by Mark Murdock of Aspen Live Well to explore how light therapy expands chiropractic impact and revenue. They discuss class IV laser, full-body photobiomodulation, and scalable business models that generate recurring income without requiring doctor time. Light therapy accelerates healing, attracts new patients, and creates a profitable business within a practice.   Resources Mentioned Download your copy of the Accountability Grid here:  https://go.theremarkablepractice.com/remceo-ep357-acctgrid   To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Aspen Live Well please visit: https://aspenlivewell.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

What actually creates long-term impact in chiropractic: better systems or deeper conviction? In this conversation, Dr. Lona and Dr. Jack Bourla unpack why Sherman College continues to attract students who carry a strong sense of purpose into practice, and why culture inside a chiropractic school matters as much as curriculum. They discuss preserving chiropractic principles while expanding into areas like upper cervical, sports, family, and animal chiropractic, along with the responsibility chiropractors have to create demand through certainty, enthusiasm, and service. The conversation ultimately points back to one reality: when chiropractors fully understand what they do and why they do it, practices grow differently, communities respond differently, and the profession moves forward with more momentum. Key Highlights 00:57 – Hear why Dr. Jack Bourla says culture matters more than curriculum and how the feeling students experience on campus shapes the kind of chiropractor they become in practice. 03:15 – Understand the “reverence for chiropractic” Dr. Lona noticed at Sherman and why younger doctors with clarity and certainty communicate differently with patients. 04:57 – Learn how chiropractic schools create referrals through vision, not marketing when students deeply understand their role and communicate hope with conviction. 06:57 – Discover why Dr. Bourla watches the student parking lot every morning and how leadership inside a school can shape future practice leaders and community impact. 09:13 – See how Sherman is building focused specialties inside chiropractic through upper cervical, sports, family, and animal chiropractic while maintaining principled foundations. 11:24 – What happens when chiropractic care is framed as family care instead of pediatrics and how that shift changes generational retention inside practices. 15:32 – Learn why Dr. Bourla believes enthusiasm is the profession's greatest growth strategy and how contagious certainty influences patient trust and practice growth. 18:24 – Hear Dr. Lona explain why the public may be more ready for principled chiropractic than the profession itself and why chiropractors must stop playing defense. 19:13 – Understand the difference between creating ripples versus tidal waves in practice growth and why demand for chiropractic must outpace supply for the profession to expand. 21:38 – Discover why Sherman prioritizes campus visits so heavily and how environment, culture, and alignment influence the future trajectory of a student's career. 23:48 - Dr. Lona sits down with Dr. Brian Capra from Success Partner ClinicMind to explore how chiropractic practices are evolving beyond traditional EHR systems into fully integrated growth platforms. They discuss how AI, automation, patient communication, and practice management are transforming attraction, retention, and scalability for modern clinics. Dr. Brian also shares how ClinicMind is helping practices simplify operations, improve patient experiences, and prepare for the future of chiropractic growth through one connected platform.

From Motivation to Incentivization: How PPFG Changes Everything Most practice owners try to motivate their teams, but motivation is unreliable and short-lived. Incentivization, on the other hand, is structural and drives consistent behavior. When incentives are unclear or misaligned, teams default to average effort instead of tapping into discretionary energy.   Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen break down how to intentionally connect outcomes, behaviors, and rewards so that performance becomes predictable and scalable. By aligning incentives with what truly matters and using the PPFG (Personal, Professional, Financial Goals) framework to uncover what drives each team member, leaders can create an environment where people are fully engaged, retention improves, and growth becomes inevitable. In This Episode You Will: Understand why incentivization drives performance more than motivation.  Learn how to connect behaviors to outcomes through clear KPIs.  Discover how discretionary energy separates good teams from great ones.  Clarify how alignment unlocks higher performance and fulfillment.  See how personal, professional, and financial goals fuel retention and growth. Episode Highlights 02:23 - Explore how alignment between purpose, performance, and profitability unlocks sustained energy and engagement. 03:43 - Discover how discretionary energy represents the hidden performance multiplier inside every team member. 04:50 - Examine the structured process of linking outcomes to behaviors as the foundation for effective incentivization. 06:26 - Differentiate alignment as the true driver of success beyond effort or activity alone. 09:02 - Uncover how removing judgment allows leaders to better understand what truly motivates individual team members. 11:05 - Identify the importance of creating mechanisms that ensure consistent and meaningful incentivization conversations. 14:15 - Reveal how lack of clarity around personal, professional, and financial goals leads to disengagement and eventual turnover. 17:26 - Clarify how a humble, relationship-first approach strengthens trust and opens the door for deeper alignment. 21:31 - Understand that helping people achieve their goals becomes the strongest driver of long-term retention. 22:41 - Recognize that failure to grow is the most expensive outcome, reinforcing the necessity of aligned incentives and performance systems. 25:06 - Dr. Chris is joined by Success Partner, Dr. David Fletcher of CLA to explore how neurocentric scanning technology transforms chiropractic communication and practice growth. They discuss using objective nervous system data to improve retention, scale with team leverage, increase PVA, and strengthen certainty in care planning. CLA's technology enhances attraction, conversion, collections, and long-term scalability.   Resources Mentioned Download your copy of the PPFG Worksheet here:  https://go.theremarkablepractice.com/remceo-ep355-ppfg  To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about CLA please visit: https://insightcla.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

What if the biggest risk when launching a practice isn't failure, but building something unstable from the start? Dr. Lona and Dr. Chris Grier break down what actually determines success early on, especially for chiropractors stepping into ownership for the first time. The conversation moves through vision, systems, and financial awareness, highlighting how easy it is to grow quickly without a solid foundation underneath. They also address the reality of the early season of practice, where effort is high and structure is often missing, and show how the right guidance and planning can shorten the path to stability and long-term success. Key Highlights 01:39 – Hear why getting help early can significantly change the trajectory of a new practice 03:11 – See how early success can happen quickly, and what needs to be in place to sustain it 04:15 – Understand why clinical skill alone is not enough, and where business understanding becomes critical 05:20 – See how growth without systems creates instability, even when things look successful on the surface 07:25 – Understand why the idea of an “easy” launch is misleading, and what the reality actually requires 09:35 – Discover how vision should guide every major decision, especially in the early stages 12:40 – Hear how different launch strategies create different pressures, depending on how they are structured 16:40 – Learn why understanding your numbers is essential, and how it impacts every financial decision in the practice 19:58 – Understand how financial structure determines whether the practice can actually sustain the mission long term 22:39 - Dr. Lona sits down with Glen David of Success Partner, Davlen Designs to reveal how practice growth is often hiding in plain sight within the walls of an existing office. Together, they unpack how strategic clinic design is less about aesthetics and more about function, flow, and efficiency that directly impact performance. Glen shares how small, data-driven adjustments across space utilization and team execution can compound into significant growth without expanding or relocating. When practices align their environment with their systems, they unlock the ability to serve more people and scale with intention.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training How can you build an agency that outlasts your involvement in it? And what happens to your identity when you finally make that shift? Over the course of 22 years, today's featured guest grew a one-person freelance operation into a full-service digital agency doing eight figures and then sold it. In this conversation, he'll unpack the real lessons from that journey: the painful transitions between operator, manager, and architect, the hiring decision that finally unlocked his ability to step back from the work he loved, and why the question isn't just who you need on your team — it's who you need to become. Dave Benton is the founder and former CEO of Metajive, a full-service digital agency specializing in complex digital products and platforms. With over two decades of experience, Dave built his agency from freelance beginnings into an eight-figure business, eventually leading to a successful exit. Today, Dave is focused on innovation, particularly in AI, and how agencies must evolve structurally to remain competitive in a rapidly shifting landscape. In this episode, we'll discuss: Operator to owner evolution Recurring revenue as a growth lever AI as an operational requirement, not a competitive advantage Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

When Freelancing Becomes a Business Building an agency wasn't a single decision for Dave. It was an evolution that happened only after making several key decisions. It took him nearly eight years before the business truly felt like a company, not just a collection of projects and contractors. This delay wasn't due to lack of opportunity, but rather the absence of structural clarity. Like many founders, he initially relied on freelancers and partnerships to extend capacity. It wasn't until he introduced stability, through a small team and operational support, that the business began to compound. His experience reinforces a critical principle: agencies don't become scalable when revenue increases, but when structure stabilizes. The key mistake many founders make at this stage is avoiding the discomfort of responsibility. Hiring a team introduces fixed obligations in a variable revenue model, which forces a shift in thinking. The Founder Evolution Problem (Operator → Architect) Dave candidly describes this transition as "slow and painful," largely because he attempted to skip stages, trying to build a leadership team before the business could support it. This misalignment is common. Founders hear advice like "hire great people" or "get the right people on the bus," but apply it prematurely. Without the revenue, clarity, or systems to support those hires, it leads to inefficiency and frustration. The business must earn the right to complexity. Dave also dealt with the challenge of redefining his identity within the agency. He deeply identified as a creative director, which made delegation difficult because of his personal attachment to the work. This is the hidden bottleneck in most agencies: the founder's self-concept. The breakthrough came when he hired an exceptional executive creative director, someone good enough to replace him at a level he respected. This evolution required letting go of control, redefining his role, and shifting focus from output to system design. That transition, from doing the work to building the machine, is where real scale begins. Recurring Revenue and Stability as a Growth Multiplier Another critical unlock Dave shares is the role of recurring revenue in accelerating growth. His agency's trajectory changed significantly when they secured a long-term relationship with a major enterprise client, embedding a dedicated team within that organization. This shift introduced predictability, which is often underestimated in agency growth. Project-based revenue creates constant volatility, forcing founders to stay involved in sales and delivery. Recurring revenue, on the other hand, creates operational breathing room, allowing leadership to focus on systems, talent, and long-term strategy. Stability reduces decision fatigue, smooths cash flow, and enables more strategic hiring. Without it, agencies remain reactive. With it, they can become intentional. AI Is the New Baseline Both Jason and Dave challenge the common narrative that AI is a competitive edge. Instead, they position it as a requirement, similar to the shift from traditional to digital agencies years ago. Dave shares several striking data points: a growing percentage of B2B buying journeys now begin with AI-driven platforms, and a majority of deals are effectively decided before human interaction even begins. This changes the game entirely. If your agency isn't visible or credible within these AI ecosystems, you're excluded before the sales process starts. Internally, AI adoption requires structural integration and must go beyond tools. Dave's agency is experimenting with agents across functions, from development to QA to leadership coaching. The goal isn't efficiency alone, but capability expansion: turning team members into orchestrators rather than executors. However, this transition introduces a leadership challenge. Founders must balance urgency with stability, pushing teams to adopt AI without creating fear around job security. The agencies that succeed will be those that reframe AI as an amplifier of talent, not a replacement for it. Building an AI-Enabled Organization (Not Just Using AI) Many founders are using AI to enhance their own performance, but failing to distribute that capability across the organization. This creates a bottleneck, where the founder becomes even more central, not less. Dave is actively working to avoid this by equipping every department with tailored AI tools and training. Developers, designers, and producers each have different use cases, and the goal is to elevate the entire system, not just individual output. This aligns with a broader shift in agency structure: from teams of executors to teams of orchestrators. The future agency isn't defined by how many people it employs, but by how effectively those people leverage systems and automation to produce outcomes. The long-term implication is that agencies that fail to operationalize AI will face margin compression and reduced competitiveness. Those that integrate it deeply will unlock new levels of scale without proportional increases in headcount. Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

What if the thing your practice is missing isn't more effort but structure? Dr. Lona brings Dr. Rachel Hovey back into the conversation to challenge the quiet chaos many teams are operating in, where busyness replaces clarity and ideas never translate into execution. As they unpack the role of quarterly meetings, the dialogue reveals a deeper tension between avoidance and leadership, where the outcomes most owners want are often sitting on the other side of the structure they resist. Together, they ground the conversation in real practice application, showing how vision, accountability, and team involvement, when done consistently, can shift a practice from reactive to intentional growth. Key Highlights 01:14 – Learn why presence as a leader applies to your team just as much as it does to patients, and what that looks like day to day 02:15 – Hear why most quarterly meetings feel unproductive and struggle to get real team buy-in, especially when structure is missing 02:32 – See how meetings turn into problem-solving sessions instead of building repeatable systems that actually move the practice forward 03:14 – Understand how leadership avoidance shows up when structure is missing, and how that impacts team performance 04:52 – Learn how scoring different areas of the practice creates clarity on what actually needs attention instead of guessing 05:52 – See how vision becomes the filter for what gets prioritized during planning conversations, so teams stay aligned 07:32 – Hear what a structured quarterly meeting looks like when it is run effectively, and how it creates better accountability 08:49 – Understand why good ideas don't get implemented without clear ownership and follow-through, even with a strong team 10:58 – See how systems can break down during a busy clinic flow, and what that reveals about how they were built 14:09 – Learn why scheduling these meetings in advance is the difference between consistency and drift in your practice 15:50 - As a Success Partner, Chiro-Ads Academy brings a powerful, in-house approach to digital marketing that helps practices take control of new patient acquisition.

What if the biggest gap in the profession right now isn't knowledge, but participation? Dr. Lona and Dr. Gilles Lamarche talk through what it means to contribute at a higher level, both inside your own practice and across the profession. The conversation starts with leadership and advocacy, then shifts into a personal story that brings the message into focus. Through that experience, a different standard emerges around consistency, personal responsibility, and living the same care that is recommended to patients. The result is a clear challenge—growth in the profession starts with alignment between what is said, what is done, and how consistently it is lived out.

They break down how a proven workshop system fills rooms with high-intent patients, builds trust before the first visit, and positions doctors as specialists in solving complex, meaningful health challenges. When marketing aligns with purpose and communication builds certainty, practices don't just grow, they attract the patients they were meant to serve.

How can leaders build stronger relationships that lead to greater trust, influence, and results? In this episode, Kevin talks with Ravi Rajani about the idea of "relationship currency" and why success in leadership and business ultimately comes down to how effectively we communicate and connect with others. Ravi explains that relationship currency is created when two people engage in a meaningful value exchange focused on helping the other person achieve their goals without self-interest. Their discussion explores the importance of shaping our internal story, recognizing how the labels and identities we give ourselves influence our behavior and conversations. Ravi also reframes charisma as a natural ability we all possess: the capacity to make others feel significant in our presence. He shares practical tools such as giving authentic, specific compliments and asking story-worthy questions that deepen connection. They also examine the role of influence as a positive force for change and the three C's of trust—connection, character, and competence. Ravi's Story: Ravi Rajani is the author of Relationship Currency: Five Communication Habits for Limitless Influence and Business Success. He is an international keynote speaker, communication expert, and LinkedIn Learning instructor, with over 65,000 people having taken his courses on Conscious and Charismatic Communication. Recognized as one of the world's leading thought leaders in storytelling and communication, Ravi has worked with mission-driven leaders, teams, and organizations such as Oracle NetSuite, T-Mobile, and Sherwin-Williams. Over the years, Ravi has helped companies and people like this become masterful communicators, tell compelling stories, listen with intention and build meaningful relationships that amplify revenue growth and cultivate a culture of trust. Off stage or camera, Ravi lives just outside of London, UK, with his wife, son, daughter and furry little West Highland Terrier. http://www.theravirajani.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/theravirajani https://www.youtube.com/@theravirajani https://www.tiktok.com/@theravirajani https://www.instagram.com/theravirajani/ Looking to Develop Stronger Leaders?

What if the fastest way to grow your income wasn't adding more patients, more hours, or more complexity but simply uncovering what's already there? Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen reveal that profit is not automatic in a growing practice, and in fact, it often erodes unless it's intentionally protected. They walk through seven hidden profit levers already inside most businesses, from undercharging and outdated pricing to inefficient financial models and underutilized capacity. The framework is simple but powerful: reclaim value, optimize what already exists, and align your business model with both purpose and profitability. The payoff is immediate and practical, giving CEOs the ability to find, capture, and multiply profit without starting from scratch. In This Episode You Will: Understand why profit is not a natural outcome of growth Learn how to identify hidden profit already inside your business See how pricing, financial plans, and volume directly impact profitability Discover how to optimize your current practice before expanding Clarify how to add value centers without creating confusion or dilution   Episode Highlights 02:09 - Discover the provocative idea that significant profit may already exist inside the business, waiting to be uncovered rather than created. 02:32 - Understand the distinction that growth is natural for a practice, but profit requires intentional protection and vigilance. 02:56 - Recognize that profitability is not passive and must be actively managed as complexity and expenses increase. 05:06 - Identify how failing to charge for services already being delivered creates immediate and unnecessary profit leakage. 05:42 - Examine how uncharged value quietly accumulates across systems, representing pure profit that is never captured. 10:15 - Explore how stagnant pricing in a rising-cost environment gradually erodes margins and weakens financial sustainability. 12:14 - Uncover how small pricing adjustments can disproportionately increase profit margins without changing delivery. 14:57 - Differentiate between care plans and financial plans, revealing how structure and payment design influence commitment and revenue. 18:13 - Reveal how monthly recurring revenue models dramatically increase both retention and lifetime value. 22:48 - Clarify that increasing volume through efficiency and effectiveness can unlock significant profit without adding overhead. 34:28 - Examine the critical distinction between owning a job and building a business, especially as teams and complexity grow. 40:00 - Dr. Kevin connects with Margaret Rosloniec from Success Partner Fortis to reveal how the right financial infrastructure fuels scalable, sustainable growth for modern practices. They break down how Fortis automates recurring revenue, stabilizes cash flow, and removes front-desk friction so teams stay focused on mission over money. When payments become seamless and reliable, growth stops being limited by systems and starts being driven by vision.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Fortis please visit: https://fortispay.com/chiropractic/ To book a meeting with Fortis, please visit:  https://hubs.ly/Q03FRwtC0    Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

What if the reason patients do not stay has nothing to do with your systems and everything to do with your presence? Dr. Lona sits down with David Norrie to explore the tension between efficiency and human connection in practice, showing how presence is what actually builds trust and retention. Through stories about sales, parenting, and clinical flow, David highlights the risk of operating on autopilot and the impact of intentional pauses, eye contact, and tone in creating real connection. The conversation points to a simple but demanding opportunity. In a fast moving environment, staying fully engaged with each person is what ultimately keeps people choosing you. Key Highlights 03:09 – The moment where “sales” quietly shifts into something much more relational 04:07 – A subtle distinction that changes what people actually walk away remembering 04:47 – The underlying force that shapes who people choose and why they return 06:55 – A contrast between moving through the day and being fully switched on inside it 07:48 – That realization when documenting life starts replacing actually experiencing it 11:52 – Where responsibility lands when no one else is setting the tone for you 14:55 – What's happening beneath the surface in the first few seconds of any interaction 17:48 – The shift that happens when space is created instead of filled 21:53 – How repetition quietly turns small actions into something automatic 26:54 – Dr. Chris Grier sites down with  Dr. Ray Foxworth, Success Partner, to highlight how ChiroHealthUSA helps practices operate with greater compliance and financial clarity.

Growth does not stall because the vision is wrong. It stalls because the systems built for one level of business are being forced to carry the weight of the next.   This conversation unpacks the operational breakpoints that every growing practice faces, showing how pressure moves predictably through marketing, sales, delivery, team, and finances as revenue rises. Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen introduce a practical framework for recognizing where systems are about to fail, why breakdown is a normal feature of growth, and how CEOs can anticipate stress before it turns into chaos. The payoff is a more mature way to lead a scaling practice: with foresight, better decisions, and the confidence to grow through pressure instead of reacting to it. In This Episode You Will: Discover the Operational Breakpoints That Stall Practice Growth and Cost You Money Understand why operational breakdown is a predictable part of business growth   Learn how stress moves through marketing, conversion, delivery, team, and finances   See why every $500,000 revenue jump demands a new level of operationalization   Discover how CEOs can anticipate breakpoints instead of being blindsided by them   Clarify what it means to lead through growth with conviction rather than frustration Episode Highlights 02:07 - Recognize the sobering premise that many practice owners inherited a broken business model, creating the need for a different path to growth. 03:00 - Clarify that business correction happens in layers, and that each new level of growth exposes a deeper operational issue beneath the surface. 06:12 - Understand the reframing that constant frustration is not evidence of failure, but evidence of being in business and actively growing. 07:46 - Discover why the CEO's responsibility is not just to cast vision for opportunity, but to anticipate the real challenges coming next. 12:00 - Examine the idea that systems tend to break at roughly every half-million dollars in annual revenue, forcing a new iteration of operations. 13:21 - Uncover how improving marketing can quietly expose weakness in the conversion process, revealing that growth often breaks the next link in the chain. 14:10 - Differentiate the moment when stronger conversion no longer feels like progress because delivery and retention start to deteriorate under the load. 15:10 - Explore how pressure moves linearly through the business like a shockwave, eventually reaching team capacity and financial strain. 21:34 - Identify the shift from spinning plates to coordinated gears, where data and preparation replace drama as the business scales. 26:37 - Reveal the deeper CEO mindset that growth is not about avoiding breakpoints, but about expecting them and leading through them on purpose. 27:38 - Dr. Chris Grier sites down with Dr. Ray Foxworth to highlight how Success Partner, ChiroHealthUSA helps practices operate with greater compliance and financial clarity. Built on a proven DMPO model, it enables smarter fee setting, reduces risk, improves profitability, and keeps care accessible, empowering doctors to grow confidently while serving more families.

There has never been a more pivotal moment for chiropractors to step forward with clarity, confidence, and conviction. In this conversation, Dr. Lona and Dr. Peter Kevorkian explore what it will take for the profession to fully rise into that opportunity, drawing from decades of clinical experience, leadership, and education. Together, they unpack the gaps between philosophy, communication, and business, while challenging chiropractors to shift their language, expand their capacity to serve, and anchor their work in long-term vitality rather than symptom-based care. The result is a grounded, forward-looking perspective on how chiropractors can lead in a changing healthcare landscape by staying aligned, adaptable, and deeply committed to the people they serve. Key Highlights 03:17 – A defining belief reframes the current moment as a unique opportunity for chiropractic 04:55 – Public awareness and shifting healthcare perceptions begin to reshape the profession's positioning 05:53 – The conversation surfaces misalignment in how chiropractors are trained across key competencies 07:30 – Business mindset emerges as a missing layer beneath technique, philosophy, and communication 09:18 – Financial awareness and responsibility are reframed as part of personal and professional alignment 11:51 – Coaching conversations reveal how lack of metrics creates blind spots in practice performance 13:24 – Long-term retention and trust come into focus through reflections on decades of consistent care 15:27 – Capacity, volume, and efficiency challenge common assumptions about quality and connection 18:08 – The conversation culminates in redefining chiropractic through vitality, adaptability, and distinct language 22:58 - Dr. Eric DiMartino is joined by Mark Murdock of Aspen LiveWell to explore how light therapy expands chiropractic impact and revenue.

In a profession filled with passion for care but confusion around business, the real breakthrough comes from mastering the systems that drive retention and revenue.  Dr. Pete is joined by Dr. Miles Bodzin and Holly Jensen of Cash Practice to confront a hard truth facing many practices: strong clinical skills alone cannot overcome a broken business model. Together, they unpack how flawed financial structures and inconsistent systems quietly erode patient trust, retention, and long-term growth. By reframing care plans, separating financial agreements, and implementing predictable, system-driven payment models, they reveal a clear path to transforming unstable revenue into scalable, recurring income. The result is a practice that delivers better outcomes, creates financial certainty, and gives doctors the freedom to lead with confidence instead of constant pressure. In This Episode You Will: Understand why retention is the primary driver of both clinical outcomes and financial success Learn how recurring revenue models create stability and scalability in your practice Discover the critical difference between care plans and financial plans See how poor money systems silently destroy trust and patient relationships Clarify how systems create predictable growth across every stage of your career Episode Highlights 0:05:11 - Recognize that clinical excellence alone cannot drive outcomes if the business infrastructure fails to support patient follow-through.  00:10:31 - Clarify why systems, not effort or personality, determine whether patients stay, complete care, and transition into long-term wellness.  00:11:33 - Reveal how a recurring revenue model transforms financial stability and creates freedom to lead, grow, and plan the future with certainty.  00:16:14 - Identify how mishandling financial conversations becomes the fastest way to erode trust and destabilize the doctor-patient relationship.  00:18:34 - Explore how payment structure directly influences patient behavior, retention, and long-term engagement in care.  00:20:40 - Examine how prepayment models can unintentionally sabotage retention by disrupting consistent behavioral patterns.  00:29:49 - Uncover how long-term growth and profitability are primarily driven by retained wellness patients, not new patient acquisition.  00:31:18 - Differentiate between education and behavior, revealing that understanding alone does not drive patient adherence or retention.  00:34:07 - Recognize that scalable systems create predictable outcomes, transforming inconsistent effort into sustained business performance. 42:26 - Dr. Eric DiMartino is joined by Mark Murdock of Aspen LiveWell to explore how light therapy expands chiropractic impact and revenue.

What if the biggest constraint on growth is not systems, strategy, or marketing, but identity? Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen unpack the shift required to move from owner operator to true CEO and confront the uncomfortable truth that building a world class business requires building a world class team. Drawing from years of experience leading high-volume practices and coaching hundreds of chiropractors, they explore the ascension from being the machine to building the machine. This conversation challenges outdated mindsets, reframes team building as a core CEO responsibility, and calls leaders to embrace the discipline, clarity, and standards required to create A-Player environments. When identity shifts, teams transform and breakthrough becomes possible. In This Episode You Will: Understand the identity shift required to become a true CEO Learn why team building is not optional but foundational Discover how clarity of vision accelerates team performance Clarify the difference between operating a practice and building a business See why A players are the gateway to sustainable growth Episode Highlights 02:34 - Identity is positioned as the starting point for growth long before strategy or systems are addressed. 03:22 - A familiar metaphor reframes leadership development as transformation rather than improvement. 04:22 - An uncomfortable leadership truth challenges the way hiring and team turnover are viewed. 06:02 - A subtle but profound shift in responsibility separates operators from true CEOs. 09:29 - A baseball analogy reveals why the most important moment in team success happens before the season begins. 10:15 - A clear fork in the road is presented between excellence and long-term frustration. 12:53 - Three distinct professional identities are exposed, each requiring different mastery. 16:29 - Breakthrough is reframed as something that requires internal change before external expansion. 20:58 - Extreme ownership surfaces as the non-negotiable foundation for culture and performance. 24:57 - Dr. Sebastian Bonnin sits down with Success Partner Justin Maxwell of Big Life Financial to explore how chiropractors can turn growing practice income into real wealth. They discuss why many doctors increase revenue yet remain financially stuck as spending rises alongside income. Justin shares how Big Life Financial helps implement financial operating systems that allow doctors to build wealth outside the practice while it grows, along with proactive tax strategies that help them legally keep more of what they earn.   Resources Mentioned Learn more about the TRP Remarkable Business Immersion on March 20 - 21, 2026 in Brisbane, AUS - https://theremarkablepractice.com/upcoming-events/  To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Big Life Financial please visit: https://biglifefinancial.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Designing A Practice That Actually Makes Money:  What if the reason your profit feels tight has nothing to do with your effort and everything to do with your model?  Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete challenge the inherited chiropractic business structure and expose why it works for the owner operator but collapses under scale. They unpack the critical difference between your practice model and your financial model and explain why adding associates or growing volume without understanding gross profit only magnifies the problem. This conversation walks you through the core financial mechanics that drive sustainable profitability and shows you how to reverse engineer your numbers, so you lead as an intentional CEO. When you understand the math behind your business, you stop reacting to leftovers and start designing predictable profit. In This Episode You Will: Understand why many inherited business structures fail under growth Learn the difference between your practice model and financial model Discover how gross profit and cost structure determine sustainability Clarify what scaling actually requires financially See how to reverse engineer revenue to create intentional profitability Episode Highlights 02:39 - A deeper motivation behind impact and scale is revealed, reframing business growth as a responsibility rather than a personal ambition. 06:25 - A bold claim challenges the inherited chiropractic business model and surfaces the hidden flaw that appears when complexity increases. 07:16 - The owner operator structure is examined, exposing why it feels stable at first but begins to fracture when additional providers are added. 12:46 - The illusion that effort and hustle can compensate for structural financial problems is dismantled with direct clarity. 13:45 - Scaling is redefined as preserving or increasing profitability, separating true growth from simply doing more. 16:23 - The concept of reverse engineering profit introduces a proactive approach to financial leadership instead of reacting to year end leftovers. 22:41 - Breakthrough is framed as impossible inside a broken model, emphasizing the necessity of repair before expansion. 27:50 - Accounting is positioned as the language of business, elevating financial literacy from optional to essential. 30:54 - Clear gross profit margin benchmarks are established, providing a measurable standard for financial health and scalability. 33:30  - Dr. Chris is joined by Success Partner, Dr. David Fletcher of CLA to explore how neurocentric scanning technology transforms chiropractic communication and practice growth.

How to Align Your Financial Model with Your Practice Philosophy:  Building Recurring Revenue Through Cultural Alignment  If you want to understand the true culture of a practice, follow the money.  Show me how the money works in a business and I will show you the culture of that business.  Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack a powerful truth: your financial model is a direct reflection of your philosophy, and any misalignment creates friction that limits growth, retention, and impact. They break down the three primary barriers to long-term patient success—time, convenience, and money—and reveal how mapping, efficiency, and recurring revenue models eliminate friction while reinforcing a wellness-based vision. When your payment structure aligns with your clinical recommendations and your belief about lifetime care, you create a culture where patients stay, teams are energized, and predictable revenue fuels sustainable growth. In This Episode You Will: Rethink how your financial structure quietly shapes the culture and retention inside your practice Break down the three hidden friction points that prevent patients from committing long term Explore how mapping, block scheduling, and operational efficiency protect lifetime care Examine the strategic difference between reoccurring revenue and true recurring revenue Walk away with a clearer blueprint for building a membership model that aligns with your philosophy   Episode Highlights 01:07 – A deeper look at why the way money moves through a practice quietly reveals what the business truly stands for. 03:25 – The moment retention shifts from a metric to a responsibility rooted in long-term patient outcomes. 05:31 – Where patient consistency really begins to break down and the subtle friction most practices overlook. 06:47 – The leadership habit that keeps vision alive inside the team instead of slowly fading into the background. 10:35 – What full congruency actually looks like when philosophy shows up in every corner of the practice. 11:35 – Why pre-mapping patient visits changes the entire retention conversation before problems start. 13:08 – The mindset shift that reframes what patients are truly paying for in modern chiropractic care. 14:17 – The quiet power of separating clinical commitment from financial commitment. 18:51 – What starts to break down operationally when friction builds inside long-term patient experiences. 20:56 – How the membership model begins to relieve pressure while creating more predictable growth. 24:44 - Dr. Rachel Hovey is joined by Dr. Naota Hashimoto to explore how Success Partner, TrackStat helps chiropractic practices operate smarter.

For 135 years Chiropractors have been lied to…They've been told that you are either in it for the patients - or in it for the money.   Nothing could be further from the truth.  Where you land on this issue can be the #1 determiner of your practice and business success - and the joy that you experience from both. Most chiropractors say they want to grow, but very few are truly fluent in the language of money. In this final installment of the five-part series on the two sides of the chiropractic coin, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the financial side of a Remarkable Business and why understanding revenue, margin, and profit is not optional for sustainable impact. They clarify the distinction between a healthy practice and a healthy business, introduce the five essential financial KPIs every CEO must master, and challenge the belief that working harder solves financial problems. When you understand how money works, you stop guessing, start leading, and build a business that funds your mission rather than drains it.  In This Episode You Will: Understand the difference between collections and revenue in business terms Learn the five essential financial KPIs every chiropractic CEO must track See how gross profit margin determines whether your business is truly scalable Discover why associate doctor models often break financially Clarify how stewardship, pricing, and overhead directly impact your net profit Episode Highlights 01:53 - Discover the critical distinction between the practice side and the business side of the chiropractic coin and why mastering both is essential for long-term success. 02:30 - Understand that greater impact and greater income are naturally connected when your business is structured properly. 04:40 - Recognize that a remarkable practice does not automatically equal a remarkable business and why both must be intentionally built. 11:40 - Reflect on the limiting belief that making money is enough, when true stewardship requires understanding how money actually works. 12:21 - See how avoiding accounting creates blind spots that prevent optimization and leave profit on the table. 16:09 - Learn why tracking collections consistently is foundational to operational and financial control. 16:39 - Clarify how Collection Visit Average reveals whether you are truly profitable per adjustment. 17:53 - Discover why Monthly Recurring Revenue creates stability, predictability, and long-term sustainability. 22:11 - Understand that gross profit margin determines whether scaling your practice is wise or financially dangerous. 26:28 - Recognize that net profit margin and absolute net profit are the ultimate indicators of financial health and CEO-level leadership. 27:34 - Dr. Kevin Day is joined by Success Partner, Dr. Jeff Langmaid of The Smart Chiropractor to discuss using consistent email communication to improve patient retention, reactivations, and overall profitability. They discuss key metrics like net momentum and lifetime value, emphasizing that keeping and reactivating patients is far more cost-effective than constantly acquiring new ones, leading to stronger, more sustainable practice growth.   Resources Mentioned To download your copy of the Practice and Business Metrics, please visit:  https://theremarkablepractice.com/podcast-ep346-metrics Learn more about the TRP Remarkable Business Immersion March 6 - 7, 2026 in Phoenix, AZ and March 20 - 21, 2026 in Brisbane, AUS - https://theremarkablepractice.com/upcoming-events/   To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about The Smart Chiropractor please visit: https://thesmartchiropractor.com/    Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Seth Bradley interviews Bronson Hill, sharing how Bronson transitioned from a high-paying medical sales career into full-time capital raising and built a business that has raised nearly $60 million. Bronson explains why capital raising is fundamentally a sales and relationship-driven process, how authenticity and transparency have helped him retain investor trust through a difficult market cycle, and why cash flow has become more important than appreciation for many investors. He also breaks down the evolution from co-GP structures to fund-of-funds models, the importance of compliance and professionalism, and how systems, partnerships, and investor experience play a critical role in scaling a sustainable capital aggregation business.
