I'm the Founder and Strategic Dental Advisor behind Frankly Consulting — based in Denver, with roots in St. Louis, and five years spent living in Australia along the way.
As a market strategist, I've spent my career advising both sides of this industry: practice owners working through the ownership, leadership, and operational and revenue complexities of running a practice, and the dental companies — vendors, distributors, and manufacturers — navigating an increasingly complex market and the growth and sales stalls that come with it. That dual perspective, built on real experience inside both worlds, is exactly where The Dental Bridge came from.
The business behind the bridge.
Frankly Consulting is a consulting group for dental practices and vendors, advising experts in go-to-market strategy and working directly with dental vendors, manufacturers, and practice owners to grow smarter, not just bigger. On the vendor side, that means building integrated strategic partnerships for dental vendors — connecting them to the right practices, distributors, and networks so the ever changing landscape doesn't continue on without them.
The Dental Bridge draws on that same network and the relationships built through years of that consulting, strategy, and partnership work. It isn't a side project — it's an extension of what Frankly Consulting has always done, built into a platform the whole industry can be part of.
Four things this industry has never had in one place.
Education built for exactly where you sit, not a single feed trying to speak to every role at once. A community aligned around who you are in this industry, not just wherever you happen to find each other online. Strategic thinking that connects what's happening on the ground to where the industry is actually headed. And a real network — the kind that opens doors, not just adds another name to a list.
"Community layers, not lanes."
Education, alignment, strategy, and network — that's what The Dental Bridge is built on, brought together in one place instead of scattered across four different corners of the industry.
