## Resource

In Part 2 of this Practice Underwater episode, Dr. George Hariri continues his conversation with "Bob," a mega-group owner generating nearly $8 million in revenue. Despite scaling massive topline numbers, Bob faced severe burnout by failing to establish personal boundaries and neglecting his own dental practice profitability during acquisitions. By working clinically up to five days a week to cover gaps in a new location, he sacrificed his leverage as a CEO. Rapid growth can become a financial and emotional grind if you do not properly utilize your leadership team. George helps Bob construct a personal "bubble" to reclaim control of his time and guarantee his cash flow, ultimately securing true dental practice profitability. Here is your blueprint for protecting your sanity and maximizing dental practice profitability as you scale: Build Your Bubble: Restrict your clinical schedule to three days a week focused strictly on specialty procedures you enjoy, forcing your infrastructure to handle operational gaps. Take a Guaranteed Draw: Establish a non-negotiable monthly owner's draw to ensure you are consistently rewarded for your equity, eliminating personal financial stress. Trim Minor Expenses: Shaving just 1% to 2% off supply and administrative costs in an $8M group can fund your entire owner's draw and significantly boost dental practice profitability. Scale Into Your Infrastructure: Dilute your central management overhead by acquiring additional "ready to grow" practices before you reach the ceiling that requires overhauling your current operational systems.
