I could say I’m pumped about this week’s episode of the Nifty Thrifty Dentists podcast, but, to be fair, I’m always pumped. However, this is a special edition. In fact, I’ve been talking about this week’s guest all the time in our Facebook group. Every single day in our groups and on our forums, people ask , “Where is the best place to get an emergency dental kit?” Time and time again, so many people say great things (and find their solution) with the Best Dental Kit.
Naturally, I thought it was worth getting the Best Dental Kit on the podcast. If you get in trouble and you don’t know what you need, let’s just say that it’s a bad day in the office—and that’s putting it lightly. That’s where these guys come into play. Best Dental Kit is one of the premier sponsors of the Nifty Thrifty community, offering peace of mind in emergency situations. Frank and his team offer fully-comprehensive emergency dental kits at an affordable price—and these kits are super easy to use.
You’re probably wondering, what compelled Frank and Leron to work with crazy dentists like us? Seven or eight years ago, a local dentist came to Frank. He was already a customer of Frank’s, and he brought in an expired dental kit. This dental kit belonged to a competitor of the local dentist who, at the time, was one of the “big guys” for selling products to dental offices. As this dentist showed the kit to Frank, he started listing off the problems with it. “This stuff is out of date, it’s too complicated, it’s too expensive.”
The long and short of it—this dentist wanted a better setup in his office. He gave Frank the recommendations of the American Dental Association (ADA), and asked Frank to put something together for him. Frank then threw some stuff together and had the dentist come back down to check it out. While it “looks nothing like what we have now” and they’ve “come a long way,” the dentist said something to Frank that stuck with him: he said, “You really need to market this to other dentists. A problem in our industry is that there’s only one or two options for an emergency dental kit. They’re expensive, they automatically send you stuff you don’t want, they bill you, and we’re a very frustrated group.”
Before that dentist spoke up, Frank had never realized this predicament existed. Thus, Frank started to study this situation and became very serious about understanding this market. As he dove into competitor research, he began to comprehend the proper definition of what a kit should be. Once Frank composed the ideal kit, he started putting together a sales letter. He bought a mailing list for his state—Pennsylvania—before sending stuff out.
Slowly but surely, Frank’s team started getting responses. 2014 was their first year of business as Best Dental Kit, and they only did about $5,000 worth of business. Frank saw that there was some potential, so he started buying mailing lists from other states as well as licenses to sell in those states. Now—just seven or eight years later—the Best Dental Kit is a $1,500,000 company. However, since day one, their MO has been the same: simple, affordable, and great service.
Most customers decide to order an emergency dental kit from the Best Dental Kit’s website, but that approach means digesting a good deal of information. That’s why Frank and his team are always willing to hop on a phone call to guide you through the process with more ease.
