		<description><![CDATA[One of the common questions my staff and I got asked frequently regarding appearing on top rankings in Google is this:  &#8220;How do I make myself visible through Google?&#8221; or &#8220;Why is my competitor&#8217;s site on the 1st page and mine is not?&#8221;
If you do not know the rules of the search engine game, you will always wonder why your site is not coming up on the 1st page of Google under ALL keywords and at the end, after spending lots of money and time on it with little returns, you might simply just tell yourself that there are NO patients/customers that you could get from the internet.
I just spoke with one of my newer clients, a dentist in Los Angeles, who has played the search engine game for about 10 years now ( even before he became our client).
He is getting 20 new patients from the internet every [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Note: Dentists, doctors, business owners etc have hired business and practice management consultants to help increase new patients and customers, to be more well-organized and to have improved customer service. However, there is one area of management which most often never get adequate attention:
When I worked as a waiter in Austria, my native country, I worked hard (90 hours a week, for about nine months in a row). An American tourist told me that I was working too hard to ever make money. I replied that I love my job and that I made good money. He smiled, patted me on the shoulder, and said, “I’m happy for you. But I mean real money, lots of money – you can’t make it while working so hard.” 25 years later, I understood what he meant.
Here is a little break-down on an organizational structure:

		<description><![CDATA[Though most of us love what we do in our profession, and many people do put in 60 to 70 hours a week working hard at our profession, most of us would also not mind enjoying the freedom to take off whenever we like to pursue other interests in life.
Small businesses stay small because the small business owner thinks that his or her presence is constantly needed to produce business income.
He or she is right to a high degree. After all, the business owner is usually also the more competent sales person, the producer, the smoother customer service person, the stricter quality control person, etc.
Well, ‘someone’ needs to do the dirty work of making money and so many business owners decide that they shall slave, &#8212; I mean, work &#8212;  hard for the business until they retire.
Below are two videos which I have made on why some people feel that they are overworked and underpaid.
Watch the videos if you also would like [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.  The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

		<description><![CDATA[Note: Figuring out a marketing plan for your medical or dental practice will help bring new patients. New Patient Marketing is an essential part of any medical or dental practice management routine.
First of all you really do need to decide THAT you want to succeed!!
I know it sounds crazy to have to tell someone that he must decide to succeed in order to succeed and some doctors might well be putting this issue aside right here with the comment, &#8220;Gee, another kind of philosophical garbage.&#8221;
But that is too bad, because the truth is that if you are not where you want to be or are not at least moving fairly well in the direction of where you want to be then you simply have not yet decided that you want to go there!
The mechanics of marketing, advertising, public relations and management are important to success but not even close to [...]]]></description>
