Mastermind Groups - More Profit In Less Time

Guest Contributor: Chris Barrow
Chris' Posts - Chris' Blog


We are evaluating and creatively destroying our business at the moment - designing a 2008 business model that will allow us to create "more profit in less time" personally - instead of just for our clients!

As part of that process we have decided to considerably expand the number and scope of our Mastermind Groups next year.

By expand - I mean from one group of 18 clients - to 7 groups of 15 clients around the UK - now that's expand!

By scope - I mean that the existing one-day format will be increased to a day and half - feedback from the 2007 members is that they want more time and are prepared to pay for it.

So here is the sales copy we have developed for our 2008 Mastermind Groups - this will be going out to our database in the next few days. It is an extract from a much larger document that outlines all of our products and services, from team training days and practice visits, through Mastermind Groups, to individual tailor-made coaching.

Constructive feedback is welcome - and please also feel free to use any of our language and ideas with your own niche market - every market except UK dentists please!

Mastermind groups

Are you:

• Good at dentistry and pretty good at running a business - BUT feel as if you are at a plateau in your development?
• Enjoying the clinical work BUT slowly becoming overwhelmed with the demands and complexity of spinning all the business plates?
• Running out of time to get everything done? Has time become just a scarce quantity in your life as opposed to a valued quality?
• Looking for a realistic plan that will move you forward so that you can believe that your life is going to be better 10 years from now?
• Feeling professionally isolated, unable to share your ideas with like-minded principals and get their feedback and suggestions?
• Tired of having to continually develop tools, systems and processes all by yourself?
• Looking for strategies and tactics that will help you to develop a superb support team?

Would you like to:

• Work with the UK's top two dental business coaches on designing tailor-made solutions that will move your practice forward to the next level?
• Develop a crystal clear vision of the next 10 years and the steps towards your success?
