Epple Financial Advisors (EFA) has helped create an alliance of top professionals to assist Dentists with all aspects of their financial lives. The following list includes advisors that EFA can coordinate with to improve the quality of our business planning. We bring outside advisors into the planning process for our clients as needed. Because Epple Financial Advisors is compensated on a Fee-Only basis, we are able to act as a fiduciary for our clients (always in our client’s best interests). This setup allows EFA to recommend other advisors that can best meet the needs of our clients or we work with a Dentist’s existing advisors to make sure all aspects of their plan are covered and recommendations implemented.

In addition to providing general legal advice to the boards, Michael handled hundreds of professional disciplinary cases, involving such issues as incompetent care, record-keeping deficiencies, chemical dependency, mental illness, sexual misconduct, and fraudulent billing.

What I Do: Specific Dental Marketing
Being specific is powerful. Niche Dental gives dental practices and dentists the ability to standout by defining their brand and placing them squarely in the eye of the public and their patients.
When patients go to other dentists for services you offer or avoid your higher-level services, they are not seeing the forest through the trees. What is getting in the way? General services, lots of dental technology, and many advanced restorative and cosmetic techniques. These “things” are not you or your expertise. When you compete with something that is not YOU, getting lost in the shuffle, and patients losing sight of your primary goals, is inevitable.
With a niche strategy, you do not stop offering other services. A niche succinctly changes the communication dynamic. Consumers need to “see less about everything” so they can learn quickly why your expertise is valid and you are the dentist they should choose.
Let me help you create a better path by defining and refining your niche: Build value in your expertise. Attract more consumers who are ready to accept your recommendations. Achieve the oral health goals you have for your patients.
Specifically, start generating the revenues all your hard work, dental CE, and expertise should!
Who I am:
Dick Chwalek has been involved in dental marketing since 1996. In 2000, he started Niche Agency. Then in the fall of 2003 he changed his company name to Niche Dental. He made this transition to focus more on dental communication consulting because many dentists were looking for more than postcards and logos. They wanted a strategy to build the value of their expertise.
He has consulted with, and offered his brand expertise to, over 200 dental practices across the country:
· Crafting dental marketing plans, media plans, and internal communication strategies
· Writing dental advertisements, brochures, postcards, websites and press releases
· Guiding the concept development of dental logos, brochures, dental web sites, and postcard
· Developing dentist PR, Internet, advertising, and direct mail strategies
He offers personalized management of your brand and niche strategy development to create strategic, long-term value for your dental expertise.
