Initial Assessment

Dental coaching might seem like it’s not for you, but every practice can benefit from having a dental practice consultant on its side. AMP knows that it’s a huge step to take because you may not have a lot of extra money right now. This investment into your practice’s future is essential if you plan to grow your business and expand.

That’s ultimately what every dentist wants. You want to have plenty of patients, which means dentist marketing is essential. However, you also need to ensure that your employees are ready for the work ahead. The best dental practice training is necessary to achieve that.

Our goal is to help you with every aspect of the business. In a sense, this is an A to Z approach that starts with the back office and goes to the front end. Most dentists don’t realize just how important each part of the company is. This doesn’t just focus on retaining clients, gaining new ones, and having the best employees.

You also have to think about COVID precautions, billing, your online reputation, and so much more. With your dental coach from AMP, you can work on everything and improve in all areas.

The A to Z Approach

While you are probably focused on one area of your business, such as financials, there is more to it than that. You need someone beside you who focuses on all parts of the dental practice from A to Z. Often, that means different things for various professionals.

You may already have the right training methods in place. While you can improve in that area, you should focus more on your online reputation to get more new clients into the office.

The assessment is the time to pull the cloak from your eyes and take a hard look at your current situation. This is going to help you understand where improvements need to be made. From there, we can help you figure out what to do to see the results you want. Though it sounds scary and requires effort on your part, we’re there with you. With dental consulting from AMP, you get a full-service approach and can find out what you’re doing right and what should be changed. We’re there with you, so your accomplishments are also ours.

Office Procedures

Every dentist’s office has strict procedures in place. They tell you what to do, when to do it, and how to measure your success. For example, you know the process for filling a tooth or doing a root canal. There are also specific things you should do for HR, billing, and insurance claims.

When everything is laid out for you, it’s easier to do the task and move on. In some cases, most of it can be automated so that you’ve got time to see more patients and do other things.

Financials and Compensation

The financial aspect is where most dental practices flounder. You don’t want to see how much money goes out or figure out a budget. However, it’s crucial to know where you stand so that you can cut costs where possible.

That also means you can focus more on dental office marketing and dental practice training. These two options are going to help you retain employees and save money while promoting your practice and getting new clients. We also help you understand what services should cost so that you’re competitive while being fair while helping you streamline insurance processes.

You have to know what’s coming in so that you have plenty of cash flow and can pay bills. Otherwise, you’re going to dip into savings (if you have it) and never come out ahead.

Marketing

Dental office marketing is one of the most important aspects, and it’s something we highlight during the assessment. You may not realize it, but being online is crucial to your success. This means you’ve got to have a website, use social media, and create brand awareness for your office.

Along with that, your reputation is at stake. With the right marketing efforts, you can improve your reputation and make clients want to visit you instead of the competition. Though it takes time to figure all of this out, we’re right there with you so that you don’t go through it alone.

Dental Office Staff

Your employees are the backbone of everything you do. Without them, you couldn’t succeed. Therefore, it makes sense to focus on dental office training and define their job duties. When people know what’s expected of them, they’re more willing to put forth the effort to be more productive.

Most dentists hire people based on their experience. This is a good thing, but it isn’t enough. Each practice is different, so your receptionists and hygienists might have other methods they use. That might not be suitable for your practice.

You’ve got to have the right processes in place so that everyone knows what to do. This also means disciplinary action, COVID precautions, and much more. The assessment is our time to figure all this out so that you can boost morale, have motivated employees, and focus on the patients. As you can see, it all flows together, and your dental coach is right at the forefront of it all.

An In-depth Look at Your Business Fundamentals

Most dentists don’t know what business fundamentals are because they’re focused on service and not the business aspect. This is where AMP comes in. We offer an in-depth look at everything that makes you unique. From there, we can work on ways to improve everything so that you’re the best in the industry and in your area.

Business fundamentals include all aspects of the practice. People are the main concern, and this consists of employees and patients. However, that also ties in with finances, marketing, and the strategies you use for everything. From there, you need to focus on accounting (billing and insurance), paying your employees well, and daily operations.

It’s a lot to take in, and you don’t have to go through it alone. AMP is right by your side, and that assessment is the first step on your path to expansion. There are many ways we do this, and it’s all to benefit you.

Customize Your Package

The thing most dentists worry about is the package they receive. AMP knows that you want something that’s tailored to your specific needs. Our assessment is the beginning and one of many steps. Once we understand what you’re hoping for, we can customize a package to help. This varies based on many factors. However, it does include:
  • In-office visits
  • A focus on each area of the business
  • Improving profits
  • Reducing stress
  • Keeping your schedule full of patients
  • And much more
If you’re continuing to see improvements, you know we’re doing our job. However, we also offer reports and explanations along the way so that you feel confident in our abilities.

The DiSC Assessment

The DiSC assessment helps you understand yourself. Once you can do that, you also appreciate others more and can see how they’re beneficial in the full scheme of things. It’s a personal assessment tool that AMP uses to improve in various areas. These include productivity, communication, and teamwork.

What It Means

DiSC stands for:

  • Dominance
  • Influence
  • Steadiness
  • Conscientiousness
These are the four primary personality profiles out there. Those who have the “Dominant” personality are more confident and try to achieve bottom-line results all the time. If you have an “Influencer” personality, you focus more on relationships, persuading others to do what you need, and are open.

“Steady” personalities are often more dependable, and they use sincerity and cooperate more. Lastly, those with “Conscientious” personalities are more emphatic about experience, accuracy, and quality.

Learning what type of personality you are (and your employees) can help you figure out roles and duties for everyone.

What It Offers You

The DiSC assessment is used by many organizations throughout the world, including government agencies. However, many dental offices utilize it to help you build stronger working relationships with your patients and staff.

You’ve got to be self-aware and know what drives you first. From there, you can figure out what others have and how patients portray you. This means teamwork is improved, there’s less conflict, and you can give the clients what they need, even if they don’t know it themselves.

How AMP Is Different

Since your dental practice is different from the one down the street, you need a unique approach to your issues. AMP doesn’t treat you like all the other practices out there. We offer customization based on your specific challenges. The assessment is one part of it, and it helps us create a treatment plan that meets your needs.

You can display your goals and have your own vision, but you’re also overcoming challenges that get in the way. We offer various services or full-service dental coaching. It all comes down to what you want, how badly you wish to succeed, and what you’re willing to do to achieve success.
