Understand how to read your dental labs P&L, manage and dramatically improve your labs profitability. Listen to the whole thing, it will start to click. Plus I give two great ways to improve your profitability asap! Enjoy!

Can a lab just make more money if they get in more units? Well, not always. This week Elvis & Barbara welcome back to the podcast David Lesh from 8&9 Consulting. In the past, David talked about getting sales, but now David dives deep into the financials you need to understand to make a profit. Don’t worry if you don’t understand the business side, neither does Elvis and David takes the time to explain it to him like a 3rd grader. It’s an interesting look at how labs need to get smarter to make a profit and not just work harder.

I love getting these texts. This rep had zero sales experience before taking my sales training just a few months ago! Shoot me a DM if you’re ready to transform your company's sales.

Back by popular demand! This Monday Elvis & Barbara welcome back David Lesh from 8 & 9 Consulting. Last time, David talked about his journey and how dental labs can grow sales. But this time we learn that sales don’t always equal profit as David explains (to Elvis like a 3rd grader) how having income statements, understanding COGS, and gathering your average doctor value allows you to plan for your lemonade stand’s…. I mean lab’s growth.
Also, a fantastic tip on not accepting rushes to increase profit that you won’t want to miss. This episode isn’t just for lab owners, everyone should understand that more units don’t always equal profits.

First, check out David’s first episode:
