24 COMMON MISTAKES DOCTORS MAKE THAT DESTROY THEIR BUSINESSES AND RETIREMENTS

Some mistakes in business offer an owner the chance for growth. Other, more critical mistakes can erase decades of careful planning and hard work. It’s these high-cost errors author and practice management expert, Jerry A. Jones, exposes in this book. There’s no question making mistakes in business is part of learning and growth, but by avoiding these specific business-crushing 24 mistakes, you’ll save yourself time, money and in the end, perhaps the nest egg you’ve built, too. Inside Jerry’s book, you’ll find 24 business-destroying mistakes – all of which he’s made and you’ll want to avoid. And, if you’ve already made a few of them, you’ll find out what to do next to fix them. Jerry’s easy-to-read and understand approach to finding and solving problems will make this book one of the most valuable you’ll read, especially if growing a large, profitable, problem-free business is your goal.

I’m impressed by how Jerry Jones managed to condense everything important about productivity and time management into a short and sweet manual you can read in a single sitting.

Time is the stuff of your life.

There is nothing more important than getting this right and you’ll find no better guide than this one.

The Business Anarchist’s Guide to Peak Productivity and Time Management: Getting More Done In Less Time Than You Ever Thought Possible

This IS a TIME DICTATORSHIP

Less than a couple of decades ago, there were limited ways for us to communicate: landline phone, mail and fax. Today, we communicate in myriad ways. In addition to “the old ways,” we now have the distraction of social media – a giant time suck for most – like Facebook, Twitter, Pintrest, and of course, cell phones, and text messages.

Call it “overwhelmed” or overloaded, regardless of how you choose to label that feeling affecting virtually every entrepreneur in business today – it’s a real issue. Unfortunately, most business owners give little practical thought to how better to control time to prevent overwhelm. And, instead of technology being a productivity solution, most entrepreneurs become hopelessly distracted, even entangled, in the never-ending parade of “newer and better answers.” These often needlessly steal your time instead of liberating it.

With these constant bombardments on our time, the successful entrepreneur must learn a new skill, and it’s not multi-tasking. We must aggressively choose what one thing to focus on, how best to strategically apply the limited number of hours each of us are afforded, and where and when to utilize said hours.

Inside this latest book by America’s Business Anarchist, you’ll find time-tested, proven and new solutions to age-old problems along with a frank discussion and clear steps on how to take back your time from the black hole technology has created.

This easy-to-read and understand approach to becoming the dictator of your time will make this one of the most valuable life management books you’ll ever read, especially if you must cure “overwhelm” and extract more productivity out of every minute in every day.

Dear Jerry, I have just completed a second reading of your book. You are SPOT ON in your observations and material. It is ironic, as what you are saying, was even true almost 20 years ago when I sold all of my dental offices. Just about the time you were born, I started here in Denver as a Dentist. Back then, as I acquired offices, they said I was “bastardizing dentistry.” Funny, how things seem to come around full circle…Keep up your great work in the profession, as you certainly are helping Dentists who are open minded enough to embrace your “gospel”, and take advantage of your services.

Want new patients? Get your hands on this book! Want real ideas you can use right away? You could fill pages of notes and ideas after reading this book. You won’t find rehashed theories here…you get concepts from a guy who built a dental office up from nothing to 4 doctors during a time when other practices have struggled to grow. How? Jerry has massive marketing and business smarts. Any chapter in this book is worth many times your investment in the price (even just the checklist for successful ads in chapter 5 is worth the investment…wow).

This book is packed with practical, useable ideas that have worked. Here are a couple other takeaways I liked: thoughts on traceable ad revenue. Examples of whats working in direct mail right now. Successful newsletters. There are a bunch of other experts who co-author chapters with great advice too – any one of which you could build your entire practice modeling and creating success.

I love books that give you access to real ideas from authors who have proven success. This is one of those.

Great book. If you want real ideas for new patients get this, read it and use the concepts!
