In this episode Dr. Jesse Green explains how your business can become a referral powerhouse. Word of mouth referrals are a great source of patients because we know the patients that come in through word of mouth referrals are typically more 'sold' on the practice, more likely to accept treatment.

We're going back into the archives, rummaging through the vault, finding the best bits of the best episodes and we're taking those vignettes and those snippets and we're combining them together to form one single episode around a particular theme or topic. And the topic for this episode is creating great business systems. Every business on the planet needs great systems, and dental practices are no exception. But what does great systems mean? Well, most people have their systems documented sitting up in a folder somewhere on a bookshelf gathering dust and no one ever follows them. So for us, great systemisation involves not just documenting the systems, but having those systems followed by all your team. And when you get this right, what's going to happen is your patients are going to have the most amazing experience within your practice. They're going to have the best possible clinical care, they're going to receive the best possible customer service, and they're going to be raving fans about your practice. On top of this, when you have new team members, you're going to onboard them faster. In this episode of The Savvy Dentist Podcast you're going to hear from Verne Harnish, the author of scaling up. You're going to hear from Dr. Glenn Richards, who is the founder of greencross vets. One of the sharks on shark tank. You're going to hear from Dave Jennings who wrote the book systemology .

Welcome to the Savvy Dentist Podcast Summer Series. To ensure you are motivated and ready to hit 2025 running, the team have gone back through the archives and found snippets of different episodes of different shows and we are stitching them together around a particular theme. The theme for this particular episode is Smart Marketing for Dental Practices. Marketing is one of those areas that most dentists know they need to activate, but really never quite master. The thing about marketing is it is a bit like dentistry in the sense that there's certainly some art to it, but there's a lot of science to it as well. Many dentists feel that marketing is this dark black box. It's just like any skill that you can learn it, you can master it, and you can develop and implement it into your own practice with great success. We say here at Savvy Dentist that the best marketer always wins. So in this episode, we want to introduce you to some of the concepts to take your marketing to a new level with your business because marketing is that first domino that needs to fall. We need to have patient flow before we can ever have success. And patient flow is a function of marketing. In this episode our list of guest are specialists in marketing and they discuss marketing in terms of patient acquisition, patient retention, patient reactivation and what it means to have smart-marketing in your practice. From Google ads that work ... to how you can get comfortable with social media. Our goal with this Summer Series is to motivate you so that after your Summer break you can kick-start your 2025 marketing in a more strategic way and implement some of the tactics and strategies that we share with you in this particular episode.

We trust that you are enjoying our Savvy Dentist Podcast Summer Series. Our Savvy team have been sifting through the episode archives and have selected snippets from a variety of episodes, and we're combining them to form one episode around a particular theme. The theme for this episode is Developing a Winning Mindset. Mindset is critical as the inner game, the mental game is really where the game of business is won and lost. We can have all the external factors in our favor, but if our inner game, our mental game is not up to speed, things can fall in aheap! In this episode of The Savvy Dentist Podcast Dr. Jesse Green is joined by a bunch of absolute legends who share their insights and their experiences around developing winning mindsets. From the chief psychologist for the Australian Olympic team, to Dr. Jenny Brockis, to high performance author and coach Dr. John Demartini about living an inspired life. We're going to be talking about resilience with shark attack survivors and overcoming adversity with Robert Owens, who's a pararescueman, which is the equivalent of the Navy SEALs in the US Air Force. All of these guests share their insights and their experiences about how to become unstoppable. How to become anti-fragile, because the one thing that we know in life is that nothing is certain. There will always be setbacks, there will always be adversity. Very rarely does life go in a straight line. Very rarely is it always smooth sailing. So we've got to have a really sharp innergame to be able to cope with and to focus on the things that matter and to be able to deal with the things that crop up from time to time and to keep moving forward no matter what.

Rupert is a long term client of Savvy Dentist, and has a really great perspective, not just about business, but about life. Rupert is a deeply reflective human being and very courageous in the way he goes about life. Rupert shines a light on a pathway for dental practice owners that might be going through challenges to help them come out the other side. And of course, the pathway is not always beautifully laid out. Rupert has had to deal with his share of challenges along the way, as you'll hear in this podcast, and the way he's overcome them has been magnificent. Rupert qualified from Newcastle University (U.K) in 2006 and started working at the Lodge Dental Surgery in 2007. He bought the practice with his wife Alannah in 2011.

In dentistry, we are always working with precision and control over a patient's situation. Having acute attention-to-detail creates a perfectionist tendency in us all, and this trait is critical to achieving great clinical outcomes. Now, in a clinical setting this makes so much sense. But in a business and operational sense and a broader life perspective, it can be a real financial and cultural ‘handbrake’ . Your ability to grow and scale your practice is inversely proportional to YOUR desire for control. In other words, if you desire control too much, it slows you down in your business growth, and your ability to create time for yourself and to create the results you're seeking. In this episode of The Savvy Dentist Podcast we pose the question, on a scale of one to ten, how strong is your desire for control in your business and your life?

People achieve more than others for several reasons, with mindset and perseverance being key factors. Those with a "growth mindset," believe that talents and intelligence can be developed through effort and learning. This mindset encourages individuals to embrace challenges, persist in the face of setbacks, and continually strive for improvement. People with a fixed mindset, on the other hand, may avoid challenges or give up easily, thinking their abilities are limited. Additionally, high achievers often set clear goals and maintain a strong sense of purpose, which helps them stay focused and motivated. They’re willing to make sacrifices, learn from failure, and adjust their strategies to keep moving forward. Another important element is the support systems and opportunities available to them. Successful individuals often have access to resources such as mentors, education, and networks that help them develop their skills and open doors to new opportunities. However, it’s not just about what people are given—it's about how they leverage these opportunities. Time management, discipline, and the ability to delay gratification also play significant roles in achievement. Moreover, individuals who surround themselves with positive influences and foster resilience are better equipped to overcome challenges, further propelling them toward success. Ultimately, a combination of mindset, effort, opportunity, and resilience determines why some people achieve more than others. Welcome to The Savvy Dentist Podcast, the show where great dentistry meets savvy business! Join Dr. Jesse Green as we explore the strategies and insights that drive the most successful practices. Dr. Jesse Green has been coaching dentists for over a decade helping them grow and scale their business. The most commonly asked question is, “What is it that separates the people that achieve great results for their practice compared to those that achieve mediocre results” ?
