"We gotta breakeven this September....! "

So... early this morning I was thinking, whats next for Mydentist, and then it struck me that were done with Mumbai. Its about the rest of India gets to know about dental services  that Mydentist provides. Its about time we go out of our comfort zone. Its about time we conquer Pune.

But, before that, Mydentist needs to be EBIDTA positive. So I call for a meeting. The Ops head, marketing manager, HR manager, Clinical Head and me, and tell them that I think we need to be profitable by September. I thought the reaction would be difficult. They may get pressurized  They may get upset.

But I was wrong. Each of them had ideas to make sure we increase revenue and decrease costs. These ideas did not seem ideas that just come immediately giving me a feeling that each one of them was thinking since a long time about this problem. 

The cool thing is they knew more about the profitability problem than me and they had better ideas and solutions than me.

I think we will be profitable by September.... God Speed....
