Your headcount didn't grow overnight.

It grew one hire at a time.

Someone kept calling out, so you brought on backup.

A team member could only work mornings, so you hired someone to cover afternoons.

The front desk told you they were drowning, so you added help.

Nobody ever went back and checked whether production had grown to match.

None of those hires felt wrong in the moment. They felt necessary.

But here's what happened over time: Headcount kept climbing. Production didn't.

And now you're paying a team built for a bigger revenue tier than the one your practice is actually in.

That's the payroll trap. And it's not a people problem. It's a rightsizing problem.

Non-clinical labor should sit at 20% of revenue. Most practices run at 21% or higher without ever realizing it.

At the Q4 Profit Maximizing Boot Camp on September 25th, Tiffany Fleisch is walking through the exact process to find out if your team matches what your practice can actually afford...so every staffing decision is backed by your numbers, not a gut feeling.

Not a guess. A framework.

This week, DEO Coaches are in Las Vegas for our annual Coaches Retreat to help them grow as leaders๐Ÿ“

That means sharpening their executive skills and learning how to identify a DEO Member's real constraint, so they can help them move forward faster.

Being surrounded by that many coaches in one room has a way of raising everyone's game, and they walk away sharper for having been in it together๐Ÿ™Œ

And when our coaches level up, so do our membersโœจ

Dental school teaches you how to treat a patient.

But it didn't teach you how to read a P&L or plan your taxes.

So you end up guessing your way through the business side of dentistry.

You file taxes last minute.

You track your expenses in a spreadsheet you built yourself.

You can't tell if last month was actually profitable.

Nobody ever taught you this side of running a practice.

That's the exact gap Duckett Ladd was built to close.

๐Ÿ“Š They build your tax strategy, so April stops being a scramble.
โš™๏ธ They set up your systems, so you can actually see how the practice is doing.
๐Ÿ“ˆ They map your growth plan, so your next move is clear.
With that kind of support in place, you get to spend less time guessing and more time building the practice, and the life, you set out to create.

๐Ÿฅˆ That's why we're proud to recognize Duckett Ladd as a Silver Partner.

We're grateful for their partnership and the role they play in helping our members build practices that actually support the life they wanted in the first place.

"Before joining the DEO, this practice was doing $50,000 per month. We hit our 10th month after acquisition, we broke $200,000 in collections, and our overhead went from 82% down to 50%."

When Dr. Ted Cho acquired his practice, he knew the opportunity was there. What he didn't have was certainty.

He wanted to make big changes, including dropping Medicaid, but every major decision came with one question.

"Am I making the right move?"

He joined DEO looking for guidance from people who had already been where he wanted to go.

What he found was more than coaching. He found accountability, clarity, and a community that genuinely wanted to see him succeed.

Since joining DEO:
โœ”๏ธ Increased monthly collections from $50K to $200K
โœ”๏ธ Reduced overhead from 82% to 50%
โœ”๏ธ Added an associate and reduced his chair time
โœ”๏ธ Grew his team from 3 to 11 people
โœ”๏ธ Built a culture that continues to fuel growth

"Joining DEO gave me a lot of clarity on not just what I can do business-wise, but what I can do in my personal life as well."

08/25/2026

Opening a second location means financing several things at once.

New equipment. Construction or build-out. The working capital to cover payroll and overhead before that location turns a profit.๐Ÿ“Š

Most financing options aren't built to cover all of that together.

A practice owner ends up piecing together an equipment loan here, a line of credit there, and a real estate loan somewhere else, each with its own approval process and its own timeline.

That's a lot to coordinate on top of running the practice that's already open.

Bank of America Practice Solutions built their lending around that exact problem.

New office startups can qualify for up to 100% project financing, covering design, construction, equipment, and working capital in one package, with loans available up to $5 million.๐Ÿค

One approval. One lender who understands how dental practices actually operate. That's the difference between stitching financing together and having a clear path to opening day.๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿฅˆ We're proud to recognize Bank of America Practice Solutions as a Silver Partner.

We're grateful to have them in our community, supporting the growth of so many DEO members along the way.๐Ÿ™Œ
