The AWP: The Sales Mindset Every Comprehensive Optometrist Needs
from EyeCode Media · host Christopher Wolfe, OD, FAAO, Dipl. ABO
After listening to Dr. Chris Wolfe’s discussion on the dangers of becoming a specialist at the expense of comprehensive care, Aaron explores a different challenge facing optometry: the reluctance to embrace sales. Drawing on Daniel Pink’s To Sell Is Human, he argues that ethical selling is simply helping patients trade time, money, effort, and trust for a better outcome. Through real-world examples, from contact lenses and IPL to restaurant servers and his own dentist, he explains why conviction, communication, and trust often matter more than clinical knowledge alone, and why becoming a better communicator may be one of the most valuable skills any healthcare professional can develop.
