In this episode, Jayme will have a conversation with three of the country's leading startup demographics experts to share some startup demographics strategies and theories that have created some of the most successful startup practices. Just about everybody would agree that demographics have a significant role to play in the success of a startup. They can either positively or negatively affect a startup. But here's the problem. Most startup practices that struggle know how powerful demographics are, they know how to read the numbers on a demographics' information report, and most of them have even attempted to get a great demographics' ratio, but they still struggle.That's because they don't know what strategies they should focus on or the theories that actually work for startup practices. There have been a lot of misconceptions about demographics and Jayme admits, for example, that a lot of it has been based on the demographics ratio and how it can help a startup practice grow. In his book, “Choosing the Right Practice Location”, he talks about the safest ratio for a startup practice being 2000:1, but he will highlight that an associate dentist cannot rely solely on the math equation around that because it doesn't refer only to the population in an area. Jayme's guests will share the framework and guidance on what associate dentists should look for beyond the ratio including who is an area, who the competitors are, who the potential clients are, the kinds of patients one would actually enjoy to serve, and the kinds of procedures one likes to do. They're also going to talk about demographics studies versus reports because understanding the difference is very critical. There are plenty of associate dentists who go to expensive courses, get tons of information about startups, and buy expensive demographics reports thinking that they can open a start up practice based on the idea that the ratio will keep them safe, but a few months into the practice, they end up bankrupt. That's the kind of experience Jayme hopes to protect every associate dentist from going through, so take your time to ingest the resourceful information in this episode, and then go out and implement it for your success in startup practice ownership.Key Points Discussed:An entirely new perspective on how demographics actually work for startups (01:50)Misconceptions that have led associate dentists down a very dangerous path (05:23)Even doctors who get into good demographics ratios and areas have incredible financial struggles (10:30)Demographic reports versus studies, and their real impact (14:51)A great example why the demographics' ratio is not enough (21:00)Eliminating options by not eliminating opportunities and the pool table demographics (24:48)Looking beyond the ratios at who the competition is and what they're doing (31:46)The concept of the pajama dentist and what it all means (34:23)How false positives in demographics mislead a lot of associate dentists (38:32)Getting the decision right so you can be empowered for the next few decades (44:41)Additional Resources:www.IdealPractices.com/FreeThe StartUp Crew Facebook Group For Associate DentistsIdeal Practices Websitewww.IdealPractices.com/13www.StartupDentistPodcast.com
In this episode, Jayme will do an introduction to demographics for startup practices. Demographics is the study of people and as a dentist, you serve people. If you get demographics right, you'll enjoy serving your patients, your startup will grow faster and you'll become more profitable faster. That's how crucial demographics are and why you must get it right from the beginning. In this introduction to demographics, Jayme will talk about how demographics in dentistry involve lots of data points. There is so much information to consider. Unfortunately, this whole process is simplified to a ratio of the number of dental practices to the population in a given area. This ratio ignores the millions of other data points, that's why you shouldn't pay much attention to it.In this episode and the next two episodes, I share with you unique opportunities that demographics offer and show you how to look at the millions of data points to make crucial decisions. Tune in to this fascinating conversation and understand what demographics is all about.Key TakeawaysWhy it is crucial to get demographics right in the start-up process (01:01)What exactly does demographic mean to a startup dentist (03:50)Why you shouldn't pay much attention to the famous ratio of practices to population (06:38)Should you locate your startup in an area that is growing quickly (14:46)Demographics involve millions of data points and why you shouldn't reduce them to one calculation (18:36)Capturing the unique opportunities that demographics offer (19:24)Additional Resources18 Vital Questions for Startups Demographicswww.IdealPractices.com/FreeThe StartUp Crew Facebook Group For Associate DentistsIdeal Practices Websitewww.IdealPractices.com/13www.StartupDentistPodcast.comGet a free copy of Jayme's bestseller during this year's 1000 Book Giveaway!“Choosing the Right Practice Location”
