How do you grow from one pharmacy to 32...and still sleep at night?
That's a question unicorn pharmacy owners can answer and this week we're joined by one!
In this episode, Scotty Sykes, CPA, CFP®, Bonnie Bond, CPA, MBA and Austin Murray sit down with Bill Osborn, President at Osborn Drugs and pharmacy industry veteran, for an unscripted, insightful conversation that spans decades of wisdom, wit, and work ethic.
From navigating PBM reform and workforce shortages to embracing AI and technology, we jump into the "Pharmacy Time Machine" to discuss:
- The evolving role of AI and automation in pharmacy
- How Bill built a 32-store network rooted in local ownership
- Partnership structures, buy-sell agreements, and long-term sustainability
- And more!
