In today's episode, I'll talk about that 10% defensive mechanism and the steps into productive paranoia that will help you create something that's not susceptible to market and economic shifts. I will discuss some essentials to ensure that you're a good steward of that cash flow and that you're preventing a downside. As you listen in and enjoy the podcast, I hope you put it into action, implement some ideas from today, take notes and get a little more prepared through productive paranoia.

Welcome to Podcasts of Dentistry #POD. This is session #3. Todays Session is with the podcaster Johnathan Van Horn, of Start your dental practice podcast. He is a writer, CPA, and intimately related to the world of dentistry. He discusses everything from podcasting, to his Garage Band. We talk about his podcast, his techniques, his confession about naming DentistMetrics, how he entered dentistry, and got his first client, his story about being a guitar player to his best purchase. We even delve into talking about self awareness and how to get it. I am just a novice in the whole game of self awareness but listening to him i feel I can do some of it. His morning rituals, his productive hacks and tricks, his favorite episodes from SYDP, his favorite books and everything in between.I hope you like this session as much as I do.
Hey Ambitious Dentists, Jonathan here. Apologies for it being so quiet on the podcasting front, as my team and I were heads down rebranding DentistMetrics into what is now Tooth and Coin. It was a ton of hard work, and I couldn’t be more happy with how things have turned out. Thanks to my amazing team and all the support from the SYDP community. Today I’m incredibly excited to get back into the swing of things by welcoming back a previous SYDP guest Alex Nottingham CEO and founder of All Star Dental Academy to the show. A while back he shared a ton of value on episode 93 of SYDP and I wanted to bring him back on to share his latest insights on what’s working in dentistry. Here are a few things you’ll learn in today’s episode: How Alex helped take his father’s dental practice from the verge of bankruptcy to becoming a thriving practice. The most effective way to increase your case acceptance rate without using hype or pressure. Why you don’t need to work crazy hours to build a successful practice. Some of the biggest myths dentists believe that are holding them back from dental practice growth. How Alex got into dentistry, and the main business lessons he’s learned about the industry. Why having a team first approach can make all the difference in your dental practice success. And much more.

Ambitious dentists, Today I am very excited to share with you episode 100 of the Start Your Dental Practice podcast. What an incredible journey it has been. When I started the SYDP podcast just a few years ago, I had no idea what to expect, and I couldn’t be more happy with the community we have built. I’m incredibly grateful for the support of the DentistMetrics team, my friends and family, the amazing guests, and all those who have tuned into SYDP. I’ve learned a lot over the last few years since launching SYDP, and for episode 100 I wanted to share my 7 biggest takeaways. Whether you’ve considered launching a podcast yourself, or are just looking to grow your dental practice, I hope these 7 lessons point you in the right direction and help you build the dental practice and business of your dreams. To celebrate episode 100, I've also put together the 7 Lessons I've Learned from 100+ Hours of Interviewing the World's Best Dental Practice Owners And Consultants Guide. The guide breaks down everything I've learned as well as highlights all past guest episodes for easy consumption. If you're looking to catch up on some missed episodes, you won't want to miss the guide.
Jonathan created DentistMetrics to solve the problem facing many dentists – they have a complicated business and their time is stretched way too thin. Most dentists spend 15,000 hours learning to be a dentist but ZERO hours learning how to be a business owner. DentistMetrics aims to completely automate and outsource the bookkeeping, financial reporting, and tax portion of the dentist's business so that they can focus on what really matters in their practice. By creating an automated workflow for the dentist and by focusing on showing dentists what numbers they need to be watching, DentistMetrics has allowed dental practices around the country to raise profits by hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. When not interviewing dentists on his podcast Start Your Dental Practice, coaching dentists on being a better business owner, or just nerding it up with business owners about ways to be more profitable Jonathan enjoys spending time going to the lake with his wife April, daughter Harper, and son Finn. He's also been known to play golf. (poorly) Weird facts about Jonathan – he was once ranked in the top ten in the nation at whiffleball, played bass guitar in a rock band for eight years, and spent his college years playing semi-professional poker.

As a dental practice owner trying to grow your business, you’re always on the lookout for new ways to get patients in the door. But let’s be honest, with so many options, it can be just a little bit overwhelming. I’ve even experienced this myself, with my business DentistMetrics. How many times have you heard the following from a friend or colleague. “You need to be on Facebook.” “You need to be running Google ads.” “You need to be on Instagram… Snapchat.. Or the latest marketing platform.” Of course, many of these tools and strategies are great for bringing in more business, but in always searching for the ‘next best thing’ we often neglect the simple path to what actually works. One of the things that just works but is often overlooked, is patient reviews. Which is why I’m excited to share today’s conversation with Dr. Shawn Van De Vyver who previously joined us on Episode 35 of the podcast. Dr. Shawn is the Founder of Great Lakes Dentistry and a super successful entrepreneur in the dental space. And he’s cracked the code on how to get patient reviews without spending hours of your time with the process. I think you’ll find our conversation eye opening when it comes to the power of patient reviews. [su_note note_color="#028000 " text_color="#ffffff " radius="5"] Want to get more reviews? You'll love today's bonus: 13 ways to get more patient reviews. Get the checklist here! [/su_note] Here are a few things you'll discover in today's episode Dr. Shawn’s favorite optimization tweaks for your dental practice marketing. The dreaded “dental tax” and why it hurts dentists. Why you should always be thinking of ways to automate your practice. The “low hanging fruit” effect of patient reviews. Why Shawn decided to build the dental software he needed himself. The myth of the “magic bullet” and how to stay focused. Free Episode Bonus A huge thanks to Dr. Shawn for coming back on the show and keeping us to date with how to automate and optimize your dental practice. As Dr. Shawn mentioned, while there’s no magic bullet in any business, there are some things you can do that will add considerable value overtime. Getting more patient reviews is one of them. As a bonus for today, Shawn has generously offered his 13 Ways To Get More Patient Reviews Checklist as well as a VERY special LIFETIME discount to his new dental software.

Quotes: “You shouldn’t have to pay more for the same tools.. Just because you’re a dentist.” - Dr Shawn Van De Vyver “It doesn’t have to be a formal thing.. You can plant the seed for patients to leave a review. It starts with the office culture.” -Dr Shawn Van De Vyver Resources: AutoFrontOffice Great Lakes Dentistry Support The Show: Without you, Ambitious Dentists, this should wouldn’t exist.
