In this episode Dr. Hunter Smith shares his methods of determining the range of values that you should consider for a practice acquisition. He also shares why demographics are just as important for an acquisition as they are for a startup and how location plays into that. We go through all the levels of profitability that can be used to determine the final value of a practice.

Guest Bio
Hunter Smith DDS is a 28-year-old general dentist in Jonesboro, Arkansas. He graduated from the University of Tennessee College of Dentistry in 2014. Soon after, Dr. Smith bought his first practice. After successful management and system changes increased that already successful first practice by 46% profitability in just 1 year, Dr. Smith grew to enjoy learning about the business of practice ownership and ways to improve clinical, business, staff, and patient relations. Building upon the early success, Dr. Smith joined up with a long-time best friend and fellow dental school graduate, Will Little, to form Southern Dental Group in October of 2015. Since forming SDG, Drs. Little and Smith have acquired an additional 5 locations in the last 18 months.
