Deneen Dismore, the outgoing CEO and Founder of Dismore Consulting LLC, serves as a New Patient Acquisition Specialist for the dental community. While she offers services as a Fractional CMO, Mentor, and Marketing Strategist, she is known for teaching dentists how to attract and retain new patients to boost profits.

Born and raised in Long Island, New York, Deneen is familiar with working in fast-paced environments that prioritize business growth. Although she began her career in dentistry as the Marketing Director for two practices in Manhattan, she discovered her entrepreneurial calling after achieving two significant milestones. Deneen was thrilled when she nearly doubled the number of new patients in one practice. Additionally, she led the marketing initiatives of another practice that was featured on Inc. 5000’s list of America’s fastest-growing companies.

Her mission as a dental marketing strategist, specializing in new patient acquisition, is to provide immense value by effectively communicating your organization’s story to your target audience. Deneen also enjoys delving into the story behind the statistics in your dental software, as valuable insights and opportunities can be found within the data. By sharing your brand’s story and refining your marketing program based on metrics, proven processes, and insider industry knowledge, she maximizes your team’s potential for success.

Having achieved remarkable results in various industries beyond dentistry, Deneen has learned that the path to success remains consistent. Merely investing in marketing and advertising is insufficient to ensure prosperity for any organization. It is also inadequate for a few key leaders to possess knowledge and passion for the practice’s marketing plans. To optimize all marketing efforts, the entire team needs to be aware of upcoming initiatives, willingly embrace revised systems with enthusiasm, receive training to maximize growth opportunities, and consistently replicate these systems.
