  1. Signing long contracts

  2. Giving up ownership of domain/website

  3. Not having realistic conversation expectations

The bottom line: Marketing is a necessary part of a well-functioning business. Whether you’re comfortable or not in the topic, it’s time to face the music, and this episode is a great place to start. Visit http://www.TheDentalATeam.com to find other ways to launch your practice into success.
