However...
You likely were never taught how to attract clients, build systems & implement the right mix of strategies to generate a strong business.
Take heart! It doesn't have to be this way.
I can show you how to find the success you seek.
Here’s what I’ve discovered….
There is a 3-part strategy
for launching and growing a speaking & consulting business.
It all comes down to VISION, STRATEGY and TAKING ACTION.
Step 1: Create a business that supports and ALIGNS with your Life Vision; and develop a Strategic Plan that connects your Life Vision to your Business Vision.

How do I know this?
I was in your shoes not that long ago...
Over 20 years ago, I was hired to help a dental speaker/consultant grow her business by marketing her programs to planners and consulting clients as well as to develop and implement systems and strategies in her office.
I remember sitting with my head in my hands, wondering how on earth do I connect this wonderful expert with the dental professionals who are seeking her message and will pay to learn from her?
I was lost! I had no idea what to do. And so we participated with different organizations and worked with various coaches who shared their knowledge. We tried multiple strategies to see what would stick. Over time, we found greater and greater success.
Flash forward to today.
Over the past two decades I’ve supported 500+ dental speakers and consultants in growing their business.
As Founder of Dental Speaker Institute and The Dental Speaker, I am recognized as a business strategist and thought leader by clients, prospects, meetings professionals and peers.
I frequently mentor dental professionals in business development, marketing, event management and overall business strategy.
I’d like to offer you a valuable resource to help you take years off your learning curve.
