Our Transformative Program & Exclusive Curriculum

Our Unique Methodology Propels Change That Sticks!

There are numerous sales methods and programs out there to choose from, so what makes our exclusive curriculum unique? First and foremost, our unparalleled expertise. Gain exclusive access to all of our knowledge – a combined 27 years of experience within the dental industry! We know WHAT sells and they know HOW to sell it – all without being “salesy”.

Our distinguished team has uncovered what is at the heart of every patient’s buying decision. Most courses don’t have a lasting impact because they do not understand the point of view of the patient and how to quickly uncover their truth.

Some of the tools you’ll learn:

The psychology of a CLOSER

Standardized sales process

The Art of Influence

Identifying and overcoming acceptance barriers

Marketing creative financing options

Follow-up strategies and tools

Getting unscheduled treatment back in the door!
