📅 Schedule Your Practice Growth Strategy Review ⚙️ Restart your practice in 7 days ⬇️⬇️⬇️ Catherine Maley, MBA talks about a much smarter way to think about growth in 2026 for your cosmetic practice. Indeed, welcome to "Beauty and the Biz," where we'll discuss the business and marketing side of plastic surgery. As always, I'm your host, Catherine Maley, author of "Your Aesthetic Practice – What Your Patients Are Saying." and consultant to plastic surgeons, helping them get more patients and more profits. A Smarter Way to Think About Growth in 2026 — A new year perspective on what to stop tolerating — and what to fix now. Happy New Year! Firstly, most surgeons start the year thinking about what they want more of in 2026: More consults More booked surgery More predictability Less chaos Secondly, that focus is normal. However, the latest "Beauty and the Biz" podcast takes a different approach. Moreover, it is inspired by Charlie Munger, Warren Buffett's longtime partner, and one of the most quietly effective thinkers of our time. Interestingly, most people don't realize Munger was the strategic mind behind the scenes. Consequently, his thinking profoundly influenced Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway's extraordinary success. For example, one of Munger's simple principles is: "Invert. Always invert." Instead, instead of asking, "What should I add?" ask this question: "What is quietly holding me back? How do I stop it?" Additionally, in this "Beauty and the Biz" episode, we explore how this approach applies directly to cosmetic practices. Specifically, it is relevant for lead conversion. Importantly, many practices don't fail because of talent, marketing, or effort. Rather, they struggle because they tolerate: First, accepting inconsistent revenues as normal Second, leads being "handled" but not converted Third, inconsistent follow-up processes Fourth, good staff drifting without feedback Furthermore, a common — and costly — example is the patient coordinator role. Notably, conversion is rarely intuitive. Also, it is rarely trained or managed properly. Consequently, left alone, even good coordinators drift. Instead, with structure, they thrive. In fact, in the podcast, you'll learn: First, why "being nice" isn't enough to convert cosmetic consults Second, how uncertainty — not price — kills decisions Third, what happens when coordinators are trained and held accountable Fourth, why fixing a few silent breakdowns often does more than adding new strategies Finally, if you're planning for a smoother, more predictable 2026, this "Beauty and the Biz" episode is a conversation worth listening to. Moreover, enrollment in the "Converting Academy" closes this week! Additionally, when you enroll by then, you receive three high-value bonuses. These include coordinator compensation plans, follow-up frameworks, and the hiring blueprint — all at no extra cost. Ultimately, if improving conversion consistency is on your "Fix '26" list, join the "Converting Academy" now.   Enjoy!

"The fastest way to success is to model other successful surgeons who have what you want, but you can only see their results, not the path they took to get there. So, you continue to jump from one thing to another, hoping to find something that will work for you too, but it rarely does. So, try this shortcut instead. It's guaranteed to move you forward. I compiled my intellectual property to grow cosmetic revenues, everything I've gleaned over the years into one playbook of the most successful practices and what they do to win.
