Exact Dental Software Runs Your Ops… But Who’s Running Your Cash Flow?

Look, I’m not here to bash Exact Dental software.

It’s a solid platform. It handles scheduling, billing, clinical notes, and your daily madness like a digital ninja.
✅ Clean UI
✅ Decent automation
✅ Easy integrations

BUT…

If you’re like most dentists, your software is organizing your practice — not scaling your revenue.

So let me ask you this:

When was the last time your Exact Dental software added an extra $10K/month in predictable cash flow?

(If your answer was, “Never… but I’ve got really clean patient charts,” we’ve got work to do.)


STORY: Dr. Angela Upgraded to Exact Dental… And Still Felt Broke

Dr. Angela in San Diego runs a tight, high-performing dental studio.
She was using outdated software that made her feel like she was playing Tetris with patient charts every day.

So she upgraded to Exact Dental software.

It was a game-changer in terms of:

  • Workflow

  • Staff training

  • Clinical efficiency

But her cash flow?
Still erratic. Still dependent on PPOs. Still struggling to get patients to accept $2,000 treatment plans without a long pause and a phone call to their spouse.

That’s when she discovered BoomCloud™ and the membership model epiphany slapped her like a 2×2 intraoral film to the face.


Software Helps You Operate. Subscriptions Help You Thrive.

Dr. Angela realized this:

“Software helped my team work better. But I needed something to make my money work better.”

So she launched a dental membership plan using BoomCloud™ — a platform that turns your patients into monthly subscribers (think: Netflix for smiles).

She plugged BoomCloud™ into her workflow, layered it over her existing Exact Dental software, and that’s when things exploded — in the good way.


Want to Actually Monetize Your Practice? This Is the Way.

Imagine this…

  • $20–$50 monthly payments from your patients

  • Automated billing and renewals

  • Recurring revenue you can count on every month

  • Patients saying “yes” more often because they’re emotionally (and financially) committed

That’s what BoomCloud™ does.

And it works with your existing software (including Exact Dental), not against it.

Let’s look at how this stacks up.


CASE STUDY: From Charting to Cha-Ching — Dr. Angela’s $12K MRR Membership Win

Here’s how she made it happen:

Her Stack:

  • Exact Dental Software: Patient records, claims, treatment plans

  • BoomCloud™: Membership plan creation, automated billing, reporting

  • Stripe: Payment processing

  • WordPress: Branded landing page for sign-ups

Her Membership Plans:

  • Preventive Plan: $29/month

  • Perio Maintenance Plan: $49/month

  • ‍‍‍ Family Plan: $89/month

Her Results (9 months in):

  • 400 active members

  • $12,500/month in MRR

  • $150,000+ ARR

  • Treatment acceptance jumped 65%

  • Cut ties with 3 major PPOs

  • Reduced patient churn by 52%

That’s not hype. That’s what happens when you stop relying on insurance and start building your own revenue engine.


MEMBERSHIP PATIENTS SPEND MORE — A LOT MORE

We’re talkin’ 2X to 4X more per year.
Here’s why:

Behavior Non-Member Member
Visit Frequency 1.3x/year 2.8x/year
Treatment Spend $600–$800 $1,500–$2,500+
Loyalty Low High
Referral Rate Low High

Why? Because members:

  • Already pay monthly = less price resistance

  • Feel like VIPs = more trust

  • View treatment as a benefit = more yeses ✅

  • Have “skin in the game” = better follow-through


EXACT DENTAL + BOOMCLOUD™ = DREAM TEAM TECH STACK

If you want to replicate Dr. Angela’s success, here’s your stack:

Tool Purpose
Exact Dental Core clinical software
BoomCloud™ Membership engine + recurring revenue builder
Stripe Handles secure monthly billing
WordPress/Webflow Pages for sign-ups & marketing copy
Zapier Connect tools without code (if needed)
Klaviyo/Mailchimp Email follow-ups and nurture campaigns

No custom devs. No headaches. Just plug and play.


5 FUN WAYS TO PROMOTE YOUR PLAN INSIDE YOUR PRACTICE

✅ These tactics turn “cool idea” into actual conversions:

  1. QR Code Posters – Link to sign-up page in every op

  2. Staff Talking Points – “Would you like to join our membership and save 20% today?”

  3. New Patient Paperwork – Include plan info + benefits

  4. Social Media Reels – Show off how much members save

  5. Email Offers – “Join now and get a FREE whitening kit”

Remember: if you don’t promote it, it’s just another page on your site. Go loud. Go proud.


QUOTES FROM THE FIELD

“We love Exact Dental, but BoomCloud™ gave us the freedom to grow. We’re now 100% membership-based and way more profitable.”
– Dr. Angela

“Membership patients don’t ghost us. They stay. They refer. They accept treatment like clockwork.”
