Closers

Transforming Treatment Coordinators into Closers

TCI is about Empowering and Training the Team... 3 people selling in unison - Patient Advocate (leads), Doctor, and Treatment Coordinator (Closer)

High-performing practices have high-performing clinicians, but if the clinician is spending time and energy trying to close the case, they aren’t spending time and energy doing the cases. That’s why many run out of time! The treatment coordinator needs to be the quarterback of the consultation and the primary closer.

TCI will provide the process, scripting psychology, and know-how to immediately increase your closing %

Who Should I Bring?

The Annual Growth Conference is built for the people responsible for creating meaningful impact in your practice. Bring the doctors, leaders, treatment coordinators, patient advocates, and marketing or growth team members who are responsible for driving performance, improving the patient experience, increasing case acceptance, and turning plans into action.

AGC gives your team a shared approach to leadership, growth, marketing, high-value case acceptance, and building a stronger practice. The real value comes from having the right people in the room together, hearing the same message and learning the same systems.

Bring the people you’re counting on for what’s next. When your team returns aligned on the vision, the systems, and what needs to happen to create success, you can turn what you learned into action.
