    Ep. 71: How to Keep More of What Your Dental Practice Earns — with Kingsley Ifedi, CPA

    Growing a successful dental practice isn't just about increasing production and attracting new patients—it's also about making smart financial decisions that allow you to keep more of what you earn. From tax planning and owner compensation to avoiding IRS red flags, understanding the financial side of practice ownership can have a major impact on your long-term growth. In this episode of the Healthcare Digital Marketing Podcast, Lamar Hull sits down with Kingsley Ifedi, CPA, to discuss the tax and financial strategies every dental practice owner should understand. While this podcast often focuses on marketing strategies that help healthcare practices grow, generating more revenue is only part of the equation. Practice owners also need to understand how to manage that revenue, minimize unnecessary tax liability, compensate themselves appropriately, and reinvest strategically in the business. Kingsley shares practical advice on tax strategies for dental practice owners, how to balance salary and distributions, and IRS red flags that could increase the likelihood of an audit. Lamar and Kingsley also discuss the connection between marketing and financial performance—including why practice owners should look beyond leads and website traffic and understand whether their marketing investment is actually producing new patients, revenue, and a measurable return on investment. If you're a dentist, practice owner, or healthcare entrepreneur looking to build a more profitable practice, reduce unnecessary tax exposure, and make smarter decisions with your money, this episode will help you better understand how financial planning, tax strategy, and marketing work together to create sustainable practice growth. 💡 In this episode, we discuss: • 3 tax strategies every dental practice owner should know • How much dental practice owners should pay themselves through salary and distributions • Common IRS red flags that could increase your chances of an audit • How strong marketing impacts the financial health of a dental practice🔗 Links:🎧 🌐 Med Rank Interactive: https://medrankinteractive.com💰 Kingsley Ifedi, CPA: https://kifedicpa.com/about/   🎙️ Listen & Subscribe: Apple Podcasts: https://rebrand.ly/apple-podcast-healthcare-marketing Spotify: https://rebrand.ly/spotify-podcast-healthcare-marketing 📺 Watch the full interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/5joySZ88EfQ Hashtags:#HealthcareDigitalMarketingPodcast #LamarHull #KingsleyIfedi #DentalMarketing #DentalCPA #DentalPractice #DentalPracticeOwner #DentalTaxes #TaxStrategy #DentalPracticeGrowth #PracticeManagement #HealthcareBusiness #HealthcareEntrepreneur #PracticeProfitability #MarketingROI #HealthcareMarketing

    Ep. 70: Avoid Costly Legal Mistakes When Buying or Selling a Dental Practice — with Erik Andrieux

    Growing a dental practice isn't just about attracting new patients—it's also about protecting the business you're building. Whether you're buying, selling, or expanding through acquisition, the legal decisions you make can have a lasting impact on your brand, patient relationships, and future growth. In this episode of the Healthcare Digital Marketing Podcast, Lamar Hull sits down with Erik Andrieux, founder of Andrieux Law, to discuss the legal side of practice acquisitions and transitions through the lens of healthcare business growth. While this podcast often focuses on marketing strategies that help practices grow, growth doesn't stop at generating leads. Acquiring another practice, preserving patient trust during a transition, and ensuring valuable marketing assets transfer correctly are all critical pieces of a successful growth strategy. Erik shares practical advice on avoiding costly legal mistakes, negotiating purchase agreements, maintaining compliance when transferring patient records, and ensuring important digital marketing assets—such as your website, domain, Google Business Profile, social media accounts, patient databases, and online reputation—remain protected throughout the transaction. If you're a dentist, physician, practice owner, or healthcare entrepreneur looking to grow through acquisition or preparing for a future exit, this episode will help you understand how legal planning and marketing strategy work together to maximize the value of your practice. 💡 In this episode, we discuss:• The biggest legal mistakes dentists make when buying or selling a practice • The purchase agreement clauses every buyer and seller should carefully review • How patient records can be legally transferred while maintaining compliance • Which marketing and digital assets should be included in every practice transition • Why protecting your brand and online presence is just as important as protecting the transaction itself 🔗 Links:🎧 🌐 Med Rank Interactive: https://medrankinteractive.com⚖️ Andrieux Law: https://andrieuxlaw.com 📺 Watch the full interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/w_XiqPGMbRs 🔖 Hashtags:#HealthcareDigitalMarketingPodcast #LamarHull #ErikAndrieux #HealthcareMarketing #DentalMarketing #PracticeGrowth #PracticeAcquisition #HealthcareBusiness #DentalPractice #HealthcareEntrepreneur #MedicalMarketing #PracticeTransition #HealthcareInnovation

    Ep. 69: The Google Ads Mistakes Costing Healthcare Practices Patients — with John Sanders

    In this episode, I sit down with John Sanders, founder of RevKey, a digital advertising agency built specifically to help therapists and mental health professionals grow their practices using Google Ads—ethically, transparently, and profitably. John founded RevKey in 2018 after seeing too many healthcare professionals waste money chasing clicks, impressions, and vanity metrics that never turned into real patients. What started as a solo operation has grown into a 10-person team focused on clarity, simplicity, and data-driven decision-making in highly regulated, HIPAA-sensitive environments. Throughout the conversation, John breaks down what ethical marketing actually means in healthcare today, why so many practices struggle with Google Ads, and how smaller practices can compete against large, well-funded organizations without matching their budgets. As AI continues to reshape Google Ads, John also shares where healthcare marketers should be paying attention—and where caution is required. This episode is especially valuable for therapists, dentists, and medical professionals who want measurable growth without compromising trust or compliance. What’s the biggest mistake healthcare professionals make when running their own Google Ads—and how can they fix it? What ethical, data-driven marketing really looks like in modern healthcare How small practices can compete with big-budget DSOs and healthcare groups How AI is changing Google Ads—and where healthcare marketers should focus right now The first three marketing actions practices should take to drive growth in the next 90 days 🌐 Med Rank Interactive: https://medrankinteractive.com 🧠 RevKey: https://www.revkey.com  Apple Podcast: https://rebrand.ly/apple-podcast-healthcare-marketing Spotify: https://rebrand.ly/spotify-podcast-healthcare-marketing 📺 Watch the full interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/GHzFhXcqbUU  #healthcaredigitalmarketingpodcast #johnsanders #revkey #lamarhull #googleads #healthcaremarketing #ethicalmarketing #mentalhealthmarketing #therapistmarketing #medicalmarketing #healthtech #healthcareinnovation #medicalpodcast

    Ep. 68: Scaling Smarter Healthcare: Tim Boyle on Virtual Assistants, Compliance, and the Future of Medical Staffing

    In this episode, we sit down with Tim Boyle, a healthcare operations and virtual staffing expert at REVA Global Medical, to explore how medical practices, hospitals, and healthcare organizations are transforming operations through highly trained medical virtual assistants. With nearly a decade of experience in healthcare, Tim has worked closely with private practices, laboratories, and hospital systems to improve patient experience while reducing administrative overload and operational inefficiencies. At REVA Global Medical, his mission centers on addressing two of healthcare’s biggest challenges today: rising labor costs and workforce shortages. Tim shares how virtual assistants can safely and effectively integrate into healthcare workflows—handling everything from scheduling and billing to patient follow-ups—while maintaining HIPAA compliance, confidentiality, and quality of care. Drawing from his background in healthcare leadership (and his earlier career as a professional hockey player), Tim brings a unique perspective on discipline, teamwork, and scalable systems in modern medicine. As AI and automation continue to reshape healthcare, this conversation also dives into what the next 3–5 years of virtual staffing will look like—and how forward-thinking practices can prepare now. 💡 We interviewed Tim on the following topics: For those unfamiliar with medical virtual assistants, what roles can they safely and effectively support—and how should providers identify the first tasks to delegate? How does REVA Global Medical ensure HIPAA compliance and patient confidentiality when integrating remote team members? What measurable outcomes have practices seen after implementing virtual assistants, including reduced overhead, improved patient experience, and faster billing cycles? With AI and automation advancing rapidly, how will virtual staffing evolve over the next 3–5 years? 🔗 Links: 🌐 Med Rank Interactive: https://medrankinteractive.com 🏥 REVA Global Medical: https://www.revaglobalmedical.com 🎙️ Listen & Subscribe: Apple Podcast: https://rebrand.ly/apple-podcast-healthcare-marketing Spotify: https://rebrand.ly/spotify-podcast-healthcare-marketing 📺 Watch the full interview on YouTube: https://youtu.be/aMPXwfltNes  🔖 Hashtags:#healthcaredigitalmarketingpodcast #timboyle #revaglobalmedical #lamarhull #medicalvirtualassistants #healthcarestaffing #healthcareoperations #hipaacompliance #medicalmarketing #healthtech #healthcareinnovation #medicalpodcast
