Grace Rizza, a marketing expert with 15 years of experience, shares her insights on business, marketing, and dentistry in a podcast interview with Shawn Zajas. She emphasizes the importance of getting the right people and processes in business, staying passionate about the product or solution, and learning to let go of those who do not align with the vision. Grace highlights the need for discernment, focus, and overcoming people-pleasing tendencies and the fear of judgment in order to succeed as an entrepreneur. 

She advises dentists to have realistic expectations when it comes to marketing and urges them to understand the value and purpose behind their marketing initiatives. Rather than focusing on short-term gains, Grace encourages dentists to invest in building brand recognition and implementing long-term marketing strategies. She emphasizes the need to put in consistent effort and view marketing as a journey, where every action is like making deposits into a bank account that will eventually yield returns. 

Grace discusses the relationship between time and money in business and the trade-offs involved. She explains that sacrificing money can save time, while investing more money can shorten the time needed for implementation and learning. However, she cautions against being overly focused on money and urges entrepreneurs to have a genuine passion for their work and a commitment to providing value to their customers. 

When it comes to working with dental practices, Grace believes that psychographics, rather than demographics, play a crucial role in determining successful partnerships. She values working with dentists who prioritize patient experience, quality, and authentic connections. She notes the growing divide in the dental industry between privately owned practices focusing on patient experience and volume-based practices that accept all insurances. Grace encourages dentists to choose their brand positioning and be intentional about the problem they solve and the reputation they build. 

Reflecting on her journey, Grace emphasizes the need to find a balance between business and personal life. She advises her past self to make time for life and enjoy the moments that cannot be regained. Grace encourages entrepreneurs to prioritize their relationships and create boundaries to avoid burnout. She also emphasizes the importance of celebrating people's strengths and being authentic in marketing efforts, rather than simply chasing reactions or clickbait. 

In conclusion, Grace Rizza offers valuable insights into marketing, business, and dentistry. She emphasizes the need for realistic expectations, authenticity, and a focus on long-term strategies. Grace encourages dentists to choose their brand positioning, prioritize patient experience, and build genuine connections. She also reminds entrepreneurs to find a balance between work and personal life, celebrating the journey and the moments that truly matter.
