From Frustration to Innovation: The TeamCare Origin Story

In 2015, Sharon and Colin embarked on a journey that would not only transform their dental practice but also revolutionize performance management in the dental industry. The couple founded Noble Dentistry with a vision to maximize their staff's potential and deliver exceptional patient care.

The Challenge of Performance Management
From the outset, Sharon and Colin recognized the untapped potential within their team. Determined to motivate and engage their staff, they implemented performance incentive plans based on industry best practices. Colin, leveraging his spreadsheet expertise, meticulously crafted spreadsheets and bonus plans to track and reward employee performance.

However, their well-intentioned efforts soon hit roadblocks:
· Overwhelming Maintenance: The manual upkeep of spreadsheets became increasingly time-consuming.
· Low Adoption Rates: Staff members showed little enthusiasm for the new system.
· Lack of Visibility: Performance metrics remained obscure to both management and employees.
Minimal Improvement: Despite their efforts, there was little noticeable enhancement in overall performance.

The Birth of TeamCare
Faced with these challenges, Sharon and Colin realized the need for a more efficient, user-friendly, and effective system. This realization sparked the creation of TeamCare, a innovative solution designed to address the shortcomings of traditional performance management methods.

Driving Growth and Success
TeamCare proved to be a game-changer for Noble Dentistry. The implementation of this new system catalyzed remarkable growth:
Expanded Team: Noble Dentistry now employs 7 associate dentists and over 50 staff members.
Financial Success: The practice achieved an impressive annual revenue of $8 million.

The success story of TeamCare demonstrates how a challenge in one's own business can lead to the development of a solution that benefits an entire industry. Sharon and Colin's journey from dental practitioners to tech innovators showcases the power of identifying a need and creating a tailored solution to address it.
