First Show Experience a Success for FindaDentist.com

Medford MA - October 10, 2004

FindADentist.com, a highly popular internet dental directory, made their first venture into the world of dental shows in Orlando this past week, despite the threat of hurricanes. While the 145th American Dental Association Annual Session experienced no natural disasters, attendance for the show was down due to the weather-scare. However, the show proved to be a great success for FindaDentist.com.

From Thursday to Sunday, FindaDentist joined over 700 exhibitors as they filled the halls of the Orange County Convention Center and promoted their products and services to over 30,000 dentists, hygienists, office managers and dental assistants.

Many dentists were interested in the company, as a reasonable and cost-effective alternative to a few of the other high profile dental directories. The trip for the Boston based company resulted in both business generation and potential networking relationships as well.

"I'm very happy to have our first experience at a dental show here in Orlando", say Brian Benko, CEO and Founder of FindaDentist.com. "Our sales staff was out there, pushing our product with energy and enthusiasm, and it gave me the opportunity to meet a lot of the major players in the dental industry."

Benko says the reason for beginning to market themselves at Dental Shows is because the medical industries are further behind other businesses when it comes to the web. "We have a long road ahead of us since so many dental offices are not yet on the internet. It feels like 1997 all over again when I was getting the major retailers to build sites to sell their services on the web. The medical industry as a whole is way behind the curve when it comes to leveraging the internet. Our goal is to play a part in getting the dental community up to speed by helping them capture a percentage of the 40 million users that search online for a dentist each year".

Because of the positive experience in Orlando, FindaDentist.com has registered for future shows, including the increasingly popular Chicago Dental Society show in February and the California Dental Society Show in Anaheim, CA in May.
