Transcript:
Justin: welcome to the Dental Marketing Guy Show, I’m Justin the dental marketing guy, and today we have a very important guest, you’re going to want to hear what Dr Ling has to say, he is starting this year, he has practice on fire, he’s started this in the past. If you haven’t heard of practice on fire yet, it’s very very useful, but don’t let me talk about it, let’s hear from Dr Ling, how’re you?
Dr Ling: great Justin, how’re you today?
Justin: I’m doing great, I’m doing great. It’s an honor to have you one and I’d love to hear more about practice on fire, I’ve heard nothing but great things about it. I’ve heard there’s a really all start speaker line-up. But before we get into the details, I was hoping you could kind of tell me about the history of how practice on fire came to be, and why you started it.
Dr Ling: Well practice on fire was actually started by Dr Graham Dersley, and it originally started as a mastermind group, and he’s thinking was that it would be great to get together a group of like-minded dentists, and he chose to bring members in who are entrepreneurial type dentist’s, and the idea was to get together online and have a free and safe area to talk about stuff that we are comfortable talking about with our peers that we know, and it’s not completely anonymous. And it turned out really great, we’ve shared a lot of amazing things, we’ve really helped each other and it really just shows the power of surrounding yourself with people who have similar mindsets as you, or surrounding yourself with people who maybe have accomplished the things that you’re trying to accomplish. And out of that grew the live events where Graham and I thought that this is so much fun to do virtually, or online, how much fun would it be to do in person? And that’s how the live events took place. The first one was last year at San Antonio – that was amazing, we had great feedback from everybody that was there, even though we had a lineup of pretty much rookie speakers; people that have never done this before, but people that shared a lot of passion for what they were doing. I think they did very very well, so we’re going for round 2 in May this year.
Justin: wow, I mean I would have never guessed, I hear so much buzz surrounding this, I would have never guessed this was just kind of amateur speakers, because what I heard was, the value that was offered at practice on fire last year, was un-paralleled.
Dr Ling: yeah, well, we hope to bring speakers that are really passionate about what they’re talking about, and have a lot of experience and success from what they’re talking about, and I think that even if you’re an amateur rookie speaker; if you’re talking about something that you know a lot about, and that you really love talking about, that makes it a lot easier, and I think that authenticity really comes out in our speakers.
Justin: well let’s see. Just off the cuff, I’m thinking you’ve got, at least last year, you had Andrew Turchin, I think this year you’ve got Stephan Kuzmak, Gina Dorfman, Dr Christopher Phelps, who am I missing?
Dr Ling: you know, most of the guys are names that you probably wouldn’t recognize, they’re guys that are regular dentists, they’re not superstars in their world, but they’ve found little areas of success, they’ve found some little secret that’s working really well for them, and that’s what they’re going to share.
The names that you would recognize are the ones that you mentioned, guys like; Cory Glenn – he’s going to be there, he’s our native Tennessee host that’s going to be showing us around Nashville, and showing us a good time as well, bet he is, at least to me, one of my mentors, a real hero in the clinical world for the things that he’s doing, and right now, I don’t think people realize the things that he’s working on. He’s going to change the world and how we approach guided implant surgery for implants, and he’s really lower the barrier for enter to doctors to do, he’s going to make it so much more accessible. Right now, and we as dentists understand the value in guided surgery but there’s so many barriers to getting in the game and Cory’s just destroying those barriers, he’s going to make it so easy to get in the game and really provide amazing service for patients.
So he’s a big name.
