   Your Marketing Gets the Call. Does Your Front Desk Book It? with Ryan Menacho

   More new-patient calls don’t help if they never become appointments. Jordon Comstock talks with Ryan Menacho, Director of Marketing at Firegang Dental Marketing, about four parts of a stronger marketing strategy: making your practice stand out, showing up where patients search, turning inquiries into appointments, and tracking what happens along the way. They discuss defining your ideal patient, why generic “we’re accepting new patients” ads fall short, how ChatGPT is changing patient search, and where missed calls and weak phone skills can waste marketing dollars. Ryan also shares how call coaching and online scheduling can help patients take the next step. Learn more about Firegang and the resources mentioned in this episode: https://www.firegang.com/

   Your Practice Is Full. So Why Isn’t It Growing? with Genevieve Poppe

   What if dental insurance isn’t just limiting your reimbursements—it’s limiting how your team thinks? Jordon Comstock welcomes dental practice consultant Genevieve Poppe for a candid conversation about the insurance mindset keeping practices busy, overwhelmed, and stuck at a revenue ceiling. They explore how an obsession with insurance estimates can distract teams from helping patients accept the care they need—and why a full schedule doesn’t always mean a productive practice. Genevieve explains how to shift treatment conversations from “if” patients will proceed to “how” they can move forward, stop making assumptions about patients’ budgets, and build confidence around financial conversations. They also discuss PPO transitions, membership plans, and how clear roles, scorecards, and accountability help practices turn effort into results.
