Management Action Plan (MAP)

 

Your Management Action Plan is a custom-written document that is typically over 60 pages.  It will contain the best strategies available to take your practice to a new level of productivity and profitability in the shortest time possible.  Dr. Gailmard will provide you with proven techniques with the same real-world practicality that he’s become so well known for in his management articles and lectures.  These techniques have been developed by studying practice management for 25 years, testing the concepts in practice, observing other eye care practices, and through formal MBA training.  Many techniques will be trade secrets that are in use by Gailmard Eye Center, one of the most successful optometric practices in the nation.  As a client of Gailmard Consulting, you’ll have full access to the proprietary methods that are in use in a $3.5 million, single-location practice in a 10,000 square foot building with a staff of 26 employees.  Dr. Gailmard does far more than just provide you with a written document; he’ll coach you on how to implement your MAP strategies in a successful manner.

 

 

Teleconsulting

 

Gailmard Consulting uses the concept of teleconsulting as the basis for its services.  This unique approach saves the client thousands of dollars by not requiring time consuming and expensive travel for an on-site practice visit.  Yet, the Gailmard Success System is a customized, one-on-one service that is second to none.  By using our proprietary Practice Data Package, the client is guided through an easy process of supplying all the information needed to analyze the practice.  Gailmard Consulting then brings real world optometric experience and formal business training to the project like no other firm in existence today. 

 

 

Follow-up consulting

 

Dr. Gailmard will be with you every step of the way as you implement your new strategic plan.  Your questions will be answered as you brainstorm new ideas and put them into action.  Four months of unlimited phone and email consulting are included in your project, and additional ongoing assistance is available as needed.  Additional consulting fees will be quoted on a per case basis.

 

 

Confidentiality
