The ultimate goal of managing a practice is of course to expand it from one level to another higher level.
The New Patient or Promotion division is your Marketing. Marketing is creating “want” - new patients wanting your services
Without a brand presence that stands out above the competition and a system to actively get new patients on a continuous basis, you’re not going to replace the attrition that occurs each year in a practice. It’s estimated that any practice will lose about 20% of its active patient base in any given one year. So, in order to maintain growth, you have to have more new patients coming in than the active patients that are leaving.
Now we look over a lot of practices every year, and we’ve found a couple of things that are important to know. First off, gimmicks are not the answer to getting new patients and long-term growth. We find most practices aren’t getting enough new patients because they’re not performing the long-standing, standard marketing actions inside and outside their practice that they should be.
There are many ways to market and grow a prosperous practice. We’ll train you on how to establish an efficient marketing program.
The accomplishment of practice expansion is an ongoing multi-faceted activity. It encompasses all of the necessary elements that are used to manage a practice.
Practice expansion can be accomplished by the Practice Owner, Office Manager and the Staff themselves all working together in a well-organized fashion.
Expanding a practice depends on first building practice stability. This is done by incorporating a well-planned step-by-step process, each step leading to a targeted goal.
Practice stability can be recognized by specific statistical indicators along with the ease at which the practice can be managed.
Once a stable platform is built the practice goals can now be aimed directly at expanding the practice.
Once a new level of expansion is achieved the practice can now set its sights on a new higher level of expansion by using additional training in:
We can train you and show you how to do it.
The only real guarantee of your success, though, is your own personal competency in management.

Silkin Management Group has been extremely instrumental in helping to bring our practice back from the brink! We could not have survived Covid without their guidance and support. We have grown our production and business prowess with their training. Both our consultant Sarah and our experience in the seminars they offer virtually have been so beneficial. We have been able to build our executive team and learn how to handle the day-to-day business operations. There doesn't seem to be an end to what we can learn and implement with their help and guidance. They help create and maintain a flow state of existence within our practice and in training our staff. 10/10 Recommend
I was deep in debt and I hired Silkin to help me with business management. Within about 7 years, I was able to turn my practices into a profitable enterprise, & ultimately met my goal to retire by 65 with sufficient funds for a comfortable retirement. Their method of Mgmt by Statistics gave me clear guidance on what I needed to do even on a weekly basis to adjust and make necessary changes that delivered excellent client services that resulted in maximal profits. The drudgery of the business aspects became fun and ultimately very successful enabling not only my successful retirement, but also great employee and client outcomes. This enabled me to enjoy a bidding war to purchase my practices on time for my planned retirement. Silkin’s systems & people were extraordinary & I highly recommend their guaranteed services. You cannot lose!
I have been a client of Silkin Management Group for more than 10 years. Everyone I've worked with has been professional, helpful, and highly knowledgeable. They have been able to handle every business question and scenario I have presented to them. We have seen our business grow vibrantly, and I feel more and more confident running my orthodontic practice because of their coaching and training.
Silkin Management Group completely exceeded my expectations! I went with the owner of the vet hospital I work for and had originally thought I was in for a week of boring conferences. It was nothing like that. Everyday I was completely engaged and was actually having FUN - at a management workshop! They made everything very easy to understand, went in baby steps and made sure we understood everything before moving on. Since starting with Silkin, our production has increased by $8,000 in only 3 months!! Everyone there is so relaxed and makes you feel like family. You can tell they really care about you and your practice goals. The monthly follow up phone calls have been incredibly helpful, along with an outlined program on how to become more successful. Silkin has given me lifelong tools to use, no matter where I am. I never thought a seminar could be so much fun - totally worth it!
Silkin Management is a company that doesn't just swoop in, solve your problems and then go away. They teach you how to run your business efficiently and profitably. My relationship with them began eight years ago and is still going strong today. Originally I didn't think I had much to improve in my practice, but I saw 25% growth in the first year with Silkin. Their services are very flexible so as to address any specific area of management in your practice that needs attention. When I am asked why I'm still using them, I say that "There's always new things to learn". I also believe that consulting firms are like diets, they all work for a while. The best diets involve a life-style change and are permanent. Likewise, for it to have lasting impact on one's practice, the implementation of a great management technology needs to be a long-term commitment. Thanks to Silkin I am building a new office that I will own... fulfilling another dream!
We have been using Silkin Management Group for almost 2 years now and I can't say enough how much we appreciate them. Our advisor Richard S. has taken a truly personal interst in our veterinary practice. He has helped organize our office and has taught us the true value of statistics over assumptions. He has always made himself available to us when ever needed. I would strongly reccomend Silkin Management to any practice that wants to move up to the next level. MN
As the Office Manager of a veterinary practice in northern New England, I have had the opportunity to work directly with Silken Management Consulting for the past several years. The group and our personal consultant have guided me in the correct manner to handle the staff and overall management of the practice in order to achieve my owner’s vision. The methods I have been trained in have given me the opportunity to write and implement clear job descriptions, policies and standards of care for the practice. I have learned how to handle employees and that good communication is a vital key to a successful manager and to the business. The ability to utilize our consultant when I need help is a huge plus! I would recommend Silken Management to any practice that wants clear, honest direction based on your individual practice needs.
Silkin Management Group has been the biggest factor in my success as a practice manager and our practice. We have been Silkin clients for 9 of my 15 years as manager. I know where we started and how far we have come in those 9 years! We have remodeled and doubled staff in that time frame and the caliber of staff we have is amazing. Thanks to their hiring process. I would recommend Silkin to anyone looking for help IN ANY part of their business. They have the complete plan to solve ANY problem.
