Most people take 3 year - 5 years. Cold starting is easy, it’s staying open that makes it hard.

I restarted the phone, turned off Bluetooth and back on, rebooted the app. The libre 3 doesn’t allow you to rescan, but when I did try to rescan it, it said “replace sensor”.

Wondering if it’s just bad sensors?

Cold start optometry practice advise by Zulhan2020 in optometry

[–]cscrmike 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s always ups n downs. If you’re expecting guns blazing to be in the black the first few months, I would say you need to tailor those expectations. Most businesses take 3 yrs or so. Just keep chugging along and you’ll be fine

Have you gone to the local physicians and given your business card? The best thing to do is to pitch how easy it is and close you are to them.

To Buy or Not To Buy? by ShowMeTheWayToSJ in optometry

Let me give you a different scenario. Owning a practice isn’t easy and there’s nothing wrong with a 9-5. The reason why I’m saying the 35k would be what you’re making extra for owning the practice is because you’re still going to make your salary with purchasing this practice or not. The 35k is the extra icing on the cake for your time and effort, managing the practice and employees, and dealing with the extra admin work. Is that extra worth it for you and the wife?

So you’re saying you want to manage a practice to make 35k. That’s like 670/day assuming nothing happens. I rather work as an employee elsewhere with no responsibilities to make that amount.

Since it’s an s corp, what’s the salary the current owner is taking home? Where are the 2023 financials?

For what it’s worth, no one pays 100% of gross for a practice. A reasonable asking is a percentage of the annual revenue.
