Episode Summary:

In this enlightening episode of "In Touch with Terri," host Terri Ross reunites with her business partner and friend, Izhak Musli, to explore the transformative power of patient retention in the aesthetics industry. With Musli's extensive background in SaaS and analytics, the duo sheds light on the often-overlooked area of patient retention as a pivotal profit center for aesthetic practices. They discuss why practices should pivot from the continuous hunt for new patients and instead leverage innovative platforms like Get Kudos to enhance patient experience, drive loyalty, and maximize profitability.

The conversation delves into the critical challenges that aesthetic practices face, such as the heavy reliance on new patient acquisition and the neglect of existing patient relationships. Musli explains how Get Kudos disrupts this norm by providing frictionless solutions to engage and retain patients. They discuss the elements that make the platform a game-changer: from its intelligent flow design that sidesteps typical app downloads to how it turns patient satisfaction metrics into actionable business growth strategies. The episode makes a compelling case for reshaping practice business models to prioritize customer satisfaction, continuous feedback, and a well-oiled retention strategy.

Key Takeaways:

  • Patient Retention as a Profit Center: Izhak Musli highlights how focusing on patient retention over constant patient acquisition can significantly enhance profitability within aesthetic practices.

  • The Importance of Net Promoter Score (NPS): Emphasizing the value of understanding patient satisfaction, the episode explains how using NPS can refine business operations and improve patient experiences.

  • Frictionless Experience: Get Kudos offers a seamless patient interaction process without the hassle of app downloads or complex logins, making patient engagement more effective and user-friendly.

  • Revolutionizing Patient Loyalty: The platform not only boosts patient retention but also provides mechanisms for acquiring new reviews and patient referrals, which are integral to practice growth.

  • Strategic Business Insights: Through data-driven strategies, practice owners can reduce costs and increase revenue by enhancing the experience and loyalty of their existing patient base.
