A Message<br />
from Sam<br />
For some of you it might feel like I have<br />
dropped off the face of the earth. And<br />
at times it has felt like that way for me<br />
too............. And I feel like I owe you an<br />
explanation to make sure everyone is clear.<br />
Just over 18 months ago, <strong>UVG</strong> went into<br />
partnership with National Veterinary Care<br />
(NVC) to make sure the business continued to<br />
go from strength to strength and it has done<br />
just that. We have never had more active<br />
members, enjoying a huge 183% increase in<br />
rebate payments last financial year, with more<br />
valuable industry partnerships and deals than<br />
ever before.<br />
We also have more clinics than ever<br />
participating in one of our leadership and<br />
training programs, be it either the Accelerated<br />
Mastermind Program or the Complete Vet<br />
System. In addition to this, many initiatives<br />
have been developed and implemented to<br />
ensure members have increased support<br />
and opportunities to communicate with <strong>UVG</strong><br />
support staff and each other.<br />
For the first time in nearly ten years, I had an<br />
extended break over the Christmas period<br />
to enjoy some quality time with my<br />
family and friends and now I’m back on<br />
deck and busily preparing for this year’s<br />
Veterinary Business Bootcamp. It’s looking<br />
to be the best event yet – you would be<br />
crazy to miss it! This year my focus is going<br />
to shift from the day to day operations to<br />
contributing to the strategic direction of the<br />
<strong>UVG</strong> business and to the development and<br />
delivery of the Accelerated Mastermind<br />
Program to help even more clinics have<br />
amazing teams, profits and lifestyles. I’ve<br />
recently handed over the day to day<br />
operations of the <strong>UVG</strong> business to<br />
Paula Sadler. Paula has been working in the<br />
veterinary industry for several years<br />
after a lengthy career working with many<br />
memberships focussed organisations.<br />
Paula will lead the operational team to make<br />
sure the United Vets Group continues to be<br />
the veterinary community that together,<br />
achieves more.<br />
I’m excited to see as many of you as<br />
possible at this year’s Bootcamp and if<br />
you think you would like to participate in a<br />
leadership or training program that is going<br />
to take your clinic to a whole new level, drop<br />
me a line at sam@unitedvetsgroup.com.au.<br />
I sincerely hope you had a wonderful and<br />
relaxing Christmas and New Year and during<br />
January you were able to re-set for the year<br />
ahead.<br />
Yours Sam
