Seminar: How to Take Your Practice to the Next Level

It's not just about attracting patients-it's about attracting the right patients and educating them about the benefits of modern dentistry. Focusing on communications issues, this entertaining and informative course provides attendees with user-friendly, practical advice that they can take back to their offices and implement immediately. Designed for both doctors and staff, this fast-moving course combines lecture and interactive sessions to address important issues such as developing the practice's niche, educating patients about the benefits of treatment, working smarter, not harder, and improving communications.

Attendees Will Learn:

--How to attract the "right" patients.
--How to develop a specific practice identity and communicate that identity consistently.
--Specific customer service strategies to create patient satisfaction and loyalty.
--How to grow the practice through outstanding internal communication skills.
--Exactly the right responses when patients ask difficult questions.

--How to incorporate more comprehensive cases into your practice.

“The best practice management seminar I have ever attended.”


Seminar: How to Train Your Team to Communicate Your Message

The message may be "excellence" or "comprehensive dentistry." It may be a message of "caring" or "compassion." But if the team does not appreciate the message or have the skills to convey fundamental information to patients, then the practice's core message is no more effective than a note stuffed in a bottle and thrown into the sea. The chances that the message will be received and acted upon in a timely manner are slim. This interactive, "hands-on" workshop gives attendees the verbal skills and other communications techniques to communicate with patients in an effective, systematic, and consistent manner. Using written exercises, group participation, and small group discussion, the facilitator will lead the group to a much clearer understanding of how the practice can effectively communicate with patients on a daily basis.

Attendees Will Learn:

--How to develop a core marketing message and communicate it effectively to patients.
--How to educate patients at every opportunity both verbally and in writing.
--How to institute a system for asking patients for referrals.
--How to run a successful staff meeting.
--How to maintain high morale and enthusiasm over time.
--How to systematize all aspects of practice marketing so that marketing becomes an integral part of every day activities.

What Others are Saying:

"Everyone was absolutely thrilled and energized by David and his message."

“Great speaker!”

"Outstanding marketing ideas-from simple pearls to more detailed plans."


Seminar: Case Presentation Choreography

This interactive course is designed to provide all members of the dental team with practical experience in all phases of case presentation, including explaining the benefits of treatment to patients, presenting financial options, tracking patients who are considering treatment, and working effectively with other doctors who may also be involved in treating a particular patient. Through the use of scripts and role playing, attendees will learn how to communicate effectively with patients and deal with common questions and objections. This participatory workshop is an interesting, fast-moving day that gives all members of the dental team useful skills that they can apply immediately in their offices to increase case acceptance.

Attendees Will Learn:

--How to communicate the benefits of treatment to patients.
--How to conduct a concise and effective case presentation.
