20/20 Money Episode #183-Raising the tide: creating a conversation for associates and owners to make more money (Live from Vision Expo East with Erich Mattei of Akrinos)

May 9, 2022

Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today’s show is Erich Mattei. Erich is the founder of Akrinos, a consulting firm that not only helps ODs thrive in today’s practice management landscape but takes it a step further by helping with the implementation and execution of identified strategies that will improve upon a practice’s success.

In this conversation, Erich joins me live at Vision Expo East in New York City to discuss the best way for Associate ODs to approach practice owners about compensation adjustments, and how to best set yourself up for success. 

As a reminder, you can get all the information discussed in today’s conversation by visiting our website at integratedpwm.com and clicking on the Learning Center. While there, be sure to subscribe to our newsletter and you can also set up a 20-30min Triage conversation to learn a little bit more about how we help ODs around the country reduce their tax bill, proactively manage cash flow, and make prudent investment decisions or check out any number of additional free resources like our eBooks, blog posts, and on-demand webinars.

And with that introduction, I hope you enjoy my conversation with Erich Mattei.
