Are you thinking about opening another location because you believe it’s the next step in growing your practice? In this episode, we’re spilling the tea on what happened when we went from one location to three, and the lessons we learned when things didn’t go the way we expected. We talk about the challenges we underestimated around hiring, leadership, location selection, and managing multiple teams.
