Many veterinarians say practice ownership is not for them because they want work-life balance, have too much student debt, or are unsure how to run a business. However, with advances in business processes, structuring, and technology, practice ownership is worthy of consideration and can bring empowerment and control.
In this episode, Jordan Kay and Bert Hockenberry from Provide financial services join the show to discuss why many people are choosing to become owners and the steps they take to do so – even as younger veterinarians.
Listen in as Bert and Jordan discuss how practice ownership can help pay off student debts quicker and may lead to long-term wealth. You’ll learn the importance of avoiding credit card debt if you’re thinking about ownership, why you might not have to be concerned about your clientele if you open up a practice, and why you may want to consider owning a practice as soon as possible.
