    Taylor Swift, The Super Bowl, and Your Dental Practice!

    What could the world's most successful musician and the "Big Game" have to do with your dental practice? Turns out, a lot! If you want to provide an amazing patient experience and overcome your barriers to practice growth, don't miss this episode of The Dental Practice Fixers podcast. Key Takeaways Embrace the power of experiences and adaptability to create a thriving dental practice. * Experiences Matter More Than Material Goods: Dr. Madow shares a personal story about attending the Super Bowl with his late father, emphasizing that meaningful experiences create lasting memories. Similarly, in a dental practice, the patient experience is more memorable than the dental work itself. * Taylor Swift’s Success Blueprint: Swift’s popularity stems from providing exceptional fan experiences and embracing change. She evolved from country to pop to folk-inspired music, seeking outside expertise to grow. Dental practices must similarly adapt and seek guidance to achieve lasting success. * Lessons for Dental Practices: Focus on creating memorable patient experiences. Be open to change and willing to seek outside help (e.g., consultants) to grow. * Secret Shopper Calls: Dr. Madow performs two “mystery shopper” calls posing as a patient needing a root canal. Both offices failed to effectively secure the patient, missing the opportunity to convert an inquiry into an appointment. Key mistakes: Scaring patients with clinical language. Failing to emphasize comfort and positive outcomes. Not inviting the patient in for a consultation. * Actionable Tips for Dental Teams: Always encourage patients to come in for an exam. Use positive, reassuring language. Be the "quarterback" for patient care—even when referring out. Mentions Patient Experience Seminar:  Available as a 4-hour online course: $297 for a limited time.
