Buckle up, doc. You’re about to learn why chasing new patients like a sugar-high toddler is costing you buckets of money — and how focusing on your patient retention rate instead can make your practice recession-proof and stupidly profitable. ✨
No fluff. No corporate mumbo jumbo. Just straight truth bombs, jokes, and real tactics inspired by yours truly, Jordon Comstock — the membership plan whisperer — and copy legends Russell Brunson & Dan Kennedy.
Story
Meet Dr. Emily Tran from Sacramento. Solid dentist. Great Yelp reviews. Decent flow of new patients. Yet every month, her bank account looked like a Netflix series: Thrilling at first… then, sudden cliffhangers and disappearing characters.
Why?
She had a patient retention rate stuck at a miserable 45%. Translation: over half her patients ghosted after one cleaning and a well-meaning toothbrush lecture.
She needed predictable revenue. Enter BoomCloud™. She rolled out a slick membership program that turned casual one-and-done patients into loyal, high-value subscribers.
Twelve months later? Dr. Tran:
-
Locked in 800 members paying monthly
-
Grew her retention rate to an insane 92%
-
Increased revenue per patient by 3X
-
Sleeps well while competitors cry over PPO write-offs
The Ugly Truth About Retention
Let’s get real:
-
It costs 5X more to get a new patient than to keep an existing one.
-
The average practice loses over 50% of its patients every 2 years.
-
Practices with high churn hemorrhage money & sanity.
If you don’t obsess over your patient retention rate, you’re leaking profits like a cracked crown leaks infection.
Netflix, Spotify & Your Practice
Russell Brunson says every big idea needs an epiphany. Here’s yours.
People are addicted to subscriptions:
-
Netflix for shows
-
Spotify for music
-
Prime for free shipping
So why is your practice still stuck in the Dark Ages, relying on patients to “call when they need you”?
What if YOU became their Netflix for smiles?
That’s what a membership program does. BoomCloud™ makes it real.
