Bulletproof Dental Practice Episode 10
Host: Dr. Peter Boulden
Dr. Dick Reid spend most of his career focused on NOT growing a large practice. Nope, he knew that is wasn't how MUCH you collect, but rather how much you KEEP of that collections. Over his career, Dick was able to drive his overhead to around 43%- as general practicioner. This is pretty much unheard of, so when I did catch wind of this I wanted to find out his "secret sauce" so that maybe some listeners could gain insight on how to emulate that - to a certain degree. By keeping such a low overhead to his practice, Dick was able to retire early on his timeline.

Darren is literally the authority when it comes to LOCAL search. He's a frequent lecturer to others SEO's in the industry.
