• Structure: Sub-director takes 25-30% of revenue in their region, you keep 20-25%
• Example: Sub-director brings in 30 providers generating $100K/month
  • GoTo Telemed: $50K (50%)

• ROI: Even though your percentage decreases, your absolute income increases due to volume

Geographic Expansion Strategy:

• Phase 1 Region: Primary focus (urban core + suburbs)
• Phase 2 Region: Adjacent areas (6-12 months later)

• ✓ Save 25-30% of net income for taxes
• ✓ Work with CPA to optimize withholding
• ✓ Track all income and expenses meticulously

Retirement Planning:
