In this episode, Dr. Blake Hamblin and Gary Bird break down the root causes of frustration between practice owners and marketing teams and how to fix it with clear data and communication.

🔍 What You’ll Learn:
📌 How to tell if slow growth is your marketing company’s fault or an internal operations issue
📌 The 7 KPIs every dentist must track to hold their marketing accountable and lower CAC
