Key Quotes:
- “Power is value exchange per unit of time. So the more value you add and the less time you do it in, that’s how you increase power. So I think a lot of us as dentists were in denial of power because we’ve seen the misuse of power, which means power that’s uncoupled from integrity.”
- “Power coupled with integrity is really what you want in a business. It’s how you maximize value.”
- “There’s something I’ve talked about several times in this podcast that I’ve used very effectively as a clinician. And that’s called release tension, set intention.”
- “People respect you when they know you will say no to certain things. If you’re just this kind of floppy-noodle people-pleaser personality, they tend to respect you less and take you less seriously.”
- “When we are living consistently with our values, we’re just more powerful.”
- “We had different principles that kind of would pop up to solve different problems, but one consistent principle was ‘never let ’em see you sweat.'”

Key Quotes:
- “The economics are creating a significant headwind and the easiest way to win this game is to create your own economy.”
- “If dental teams have a system for small talk or at least some frameworks or guidance and embrace that, it is the on-ramp to trust, rapport, case acceptance, referrals, et cetera, and really good things happen.”
- “Research says 7% of communication is verbal. That means the rest is tonality and physical communication.”
- “We want to humanize ourselves, not to the level of unprofessionalism, but just to create a human-to-human connection.”
- “Stories are humanizing. They are trust-building if done tastefully and not inappropriately. So don’t be caught off guard, have stories worth sharing.”
- “Little tiny things create small talk and the small talk creates a big connection. And the big connection creates even bigger chances for reputation building, referrals, and all of the things that you really need in private practice.”

How do you level up your marketing strategies, especially in this digital age? You might be dancing on TikTok or pointing at things on IG reels. And I think that’s great, but word of mouth is still a compelling way to generate enthusiasm — mainly Evangelism Marketing.
Evangelism Marketing is an advanced form of word-of-mouth marketing. It’s a cost-effective way that keeps your clients loyal, your brand trustworthy, and your culture robust. Very far from blabbering and spewing nonsensical dental jargon that results in practically nothing.
Today’s podcast is about enthusing your clients. We’re going to be addressing the problem that many practices have become overly reliant on digital platforms. We’re going to infuse some enthusiasm into your routine. We’re going to create a surge of surprise and delight, and I’m going to throw out what I call the Evangelist challenge. Are you curious now? Stay tuned and find out.

Key Quotes:
- “Individuals, patients, in this case, want to make the world a better place. And evangelist customers or clients or patients spread their recommendations and recruit new customers for you, just out of belief in you and what you can do.”
- “If your administrators are maniacs about capturing where patients heard about you from, make sure that they are so good at that.”
- “If you have a practice of 2000, 1% is your super clients — this is your evangelist.”
- “There’s an unlimited opportunity on a practice to do this sort of thing, to pour into your patients, to make remarkable experiences and be extraordinarily extraordinary.”

How well do you know your customers? What do they love? What gets them excited? What are the things that they most value? These small details account for an exceptional experience that when patients leave your practice, they can’t help but talk about you.

Lastly, I’ll share a Ritz Carlton ritual that you can immediately implement in your practice and within the culture.
