This year marks the 10th anniversary of My Dental Agency, and, naturally, a significant milestone like this has prompted me to reflect on the changes I’ve witnessed since starting my company. Dental marketing has evolved over the last decade, but, for those of us who have been in the industry longer, we know it goes far beyond that.

Online reviews are a goldmine of free marketing, yet most dental practices take them for granted. Yes, having a 5-star rating on Google and Facebook is an excellent goal. You want to show your pool of potential patients that your practice is the best. However, as some of the most recent data show, that star rating may not be as important as another factor: responses. Businesses that respond to their customers’ reviews win on all fronts.
Build trust through authenticity. That’s not a slogan or a strategy. It’s something I practice every day in my company. Why is authenticity important? Consumers today are more informed and have the means to compare brands at their fingertips, anywhere, at any time, making them less loyal than ever.
It’s true that marketing is essential if you want to grow your dental practice. But here’s the rub: no matter how strong your marketing strategy is, your dental practice will never see sustained growth if your front desk game isn’t just as strong. Think of marketing as the spark that ignites interest, but your front desk is the engine that drives it home.
August marks ten years since Shaw Berg and I partnered to create My Dental Agency. When we started, I knew we had something special, but I didn’t realize just how special it was. I never doubted we would be successful, but I didn’t imagine we would blow all our goals out of the water. I had no idea how incredible our team would become, the caliber of clientele we would attract, or the impact we would have on the dental industry.
