The four quadrants

• Strengths. What your answers say is already working in your favor.
• Weaknesses. Where your answers show cases leaking out of your own process.
• Opportunities. Volume you could reach from where you stand, without new clinical capacity.
• Threats. Pressure from the market around you that your answers leave you exposed to.

Each quadrant shows between 3 and 6 lines. When the answers produce fewer than 3, the quadrant is completed with lines that hold true for essentially every full arch practice.

How the fixes are ranked

Speed to lead and coordinator close rate carry the most weight, because they are the two largest documented swings in the whole chain. Then financing lender count, then attribution, then listings consistency, then Local Services Ads, then reactivation. The three heaviest problems your answers reveal are shown, in that order.

1. 100Leads wait too long for a human to respond.
2. 95Nobody trained owns the fee conversation.
3. 90Phones go unanswered for most of the week.
4. 75Too few lenders, so declines end cases at the chair.
5. 70Implant leads are not qualified before booking.
6. 60Closed cases cannot be traced to the ad that produced them.
7. 50Practice details are not consistent everywhere online.
8. 40The top position on the results page is unclaimed.
9. 30Past consults who never started are left alone.

How the verdict is chosen

Not placing full arch selects the clinical verdict. Otherwise, strong clinical answers with intake under half its possible points select the marketing verdict; case closing under half selects the fee verdict; an overall score of seventy percent or more selects the coverage verdict; anything else selects the connection verdict.
