27. Get top dollar for your practice when it's time to sell

With Thad Miller
For many practice owners, their business is their life's work – a true personal and professional investment.


So when the time comes to sell, it's crucial for owners to maximize the return on their investments – we’re talking decades of procedures, critical business decisions, and long days.


What many sellers don't realize is that the decisions they make in their final months as owners can have an enormous impact on the value they realize from the sale.

Meet our guest

In this episode, we're talking to Thad Miller, an industry leader with more than 25 years of business experience and the creator of ddsmatch.com, which helps more than 8,000 dentists across the country find a seller. The site has more than 1,200 sellers to choose from, with almost $250 million in assets under transition management.


Thad also manages dvmmatch.com, which offers the same services to veterinarians.
