When we have no specific departments and roles than we have less accountability (almost none) and that creates a ton of inefficiencies. You don’t just want to throw up anyone at the front and hope your other front office shares their duties. You want to specifically give them departments.

In this episode Sandy shares with us exactly which person should be in which department based on their personality. She also lets us know which departments should work closer together than others, when is it time to add another team member on your team, and how you should monitor each team member.

We also discuss what to do if you only have 1 person in the front doing everything and how these departments will fit in.

Not every single re-care appointment will show up exactly when they are supposed to. This sucks because it also leads you to try and market more for new patients. So step back a bit and build a system to improve your reactivation process.

In this episode Sandy Pardue gives us a proven system that will drastically improve your reactivation process.

Two things you want to do:

1. Look right now at your analytics/ software and see how many existing patients in your practice need a cleaning... today!

2. Listen to the podcast to hear what number 2 is (;

This is a proven system that will bring back 9-19% of existing patients who need a cleaning or more!
