Why Most Dental Practices Are Leaking Revenue (And Don’t Even Know It)
Imagine this: You’re running around like a caffeinated squirrel ️, hustling to get new patients in the door every month. Ads, promos, coupons—oh my! But despite your best efforts, you’re stuck on the “new patient treadmill,” constantly chasing volume instead of building wealth.
Here’s the ugly truth no one tells you (until now): Revenue per patient matters WAY more than the number of new patients.
Fun Fact: Studies show membership patients spend 2X to 4X more on dental services than non-members (source: BoomCloud™ data)!
And that’s just the beginning of the epiphany you’re about to have…
Story: The $97,000 Secret Buried in Membership Plans
Meet Dr. Sarah. Small-town dentist. Awesome clinician. Terrible at business (her words, not mine).
Every month, she stressed about meeting payroll. Every quarter, she begged patients to book hygiene appointments. Every year, she barely gave herself a raise.
Then one day, she stumbled upon BoomCloud™—a Membership Plan Platform that changed her practice forever.
➡️ She launched a simple, sexy membership program.
➡️ Offered cleanings, discounts, and perks.
➡️ Started stacking Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) like a boss.
Fast forward 12 months:
-
$97,000 in ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue)
-
Patients staying loyal 2x longer
-
Revenue per patient skyrocketing
-
Marketing costs cut in half (because loyalty beats ads!)
Boom. Epiphany.

Why You Need a Dental Membership Plan Yesterday
Let’s get brutally real for a second. If you don’t have a membership plan yet, you’re voluntarily giving away tens of thousands of dollars to your competitors.

You control your destiny.
Once you build your Membership Army™, you’re no longer running a “Dental Practice.”

Why Membership Patients Spend 2X to 4X More
Here’s some brain candy:
ADA Research: Membership patients spend 2x-4x more per year than uninsured patients.
Loyalty Stats: Retention rates for members are 60% higher than regular patients.
Subscription Economy Data: Businesses with subscription models grow 5X faster than ones without.
If you’re not using this model, you’re burning money. Literally.
️ MRR vs. ARR: Why It Matters for Your Practice Growth
MRR (Monthly Recurring Revenue): How much predictable income you make every month from memberships.
ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue): MRR multiplied by 12. Your yearly cash flow.
Quick Example:
-
300 members x $30/month = $9,000 MRR
-
$9,000 x 12 = $108,000 ARR
That’s like adding a whole extra associate…without actually hiring one!
