Orthodontic Funnel Audit: Your 2026 Profit Plan Starts Here l 5MF

Описание: Most orthodontists think their biggest money leaks are in fees or overhead. But what if the real problem is sitting right at the top of your funnel—unchecked and unoptimized?

In this episode, I walk you through how to dissect your practice’s entire patient funnel heading into 2026. From lead generation to consult conversion to case acceptance, this is your chance to clean house, plug profit holes, and make this your most financially rewarding year yet. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just starting out, I break down the three types of orthodontists and where each gets stuck. My hope? That you’re the kind who actually takes action.

You’ll also get clarity on the three ways to increase profits, why "scaling" and "growing" are not the same thing, and how to finally leverage your fixed costs—like rent and team size—into higher margins without burning out. This is the practical, brass-tacks business strategy no one taught you in residency—but it's exactly what will make the difference in your next 12 months.
