Thanks to The Dental Trader! I advertised my dental practice for sale with a 1/4pg display ad beginning March ’23 and promptly sold it for the full asking price in May. The ad was worth every penny. Dr. Nav, DMD Bruce / Dental Trader has been one of our strongest resources to connect to the dental community and spread the word about our services and events. Response to marketing of our events in The Dental Trader keeps exceeding our expectations, and regrettably sometimes forcing us to turn away doctors that do not RSVP on time. Fazel Mostashari – Mostashari & Associates Hi Bruce, Please see the attached screenshot showing a response on our website. I appreciate the response that we get from the Dental Trader and the personal support that we receive from you! Thank you! Jason Owens ddsmatch I placed some reader ads late Monday night (to be printed in the October edition) and began getting response the next morning. Didn’t expect such immediate action. Apparently the Dental Trader’s Ad Board works. Jack Fogelson Jack Fogelson Practice Sales I sent a lot of text and images when I delegated production of my two page ad to The Dental Trader’s Graphics Staff. They transformed my ad copy into a beautiful ad spread and when I received my first proof, I struggled to find something to change so I could feel like I contributed to the layout but I was unable to. It was perfect. Best of all The Dental Trader provides these services free of charge. I am delighted with their art department! Periklis Proussaefs DDS, MS Calif. Institute of Dental Education Your Dental Trader publication works. It generates leads, and new clients. I tested an ad with your publication for four (4) insertions in So Cal and the first two insertions generated new clients. Based on this, I am now going to have another client participate in No Cal. Well worth the time and investment!! Hugh Duffy Build Your Firm The Dental Trader is a great company to work with. Bruce and his staff have helped me with my ads and he’s even helped me by changing the way the ad reads and it’s layout to help me with my conversion. What a great resource for Dentists in California. Dr. Derek Baron The Doctors Marketing Source I have known Bruce for well over twenty years, and recently started my own dental brokerage. I contacted Bruce to assist me in notifying the dental community, as I knew from experience that the Dental Trader is one of the most widely read publications in the dental industry here in California. Bruce not only assisted me in developing my ad, but helped me with the branding of my new company. Bruce and his entire team have been responsive to my needs, and the ads are bringing in more business than I anticipated. I highly recommend his company! Greg Beamer Dental Broker Xcel Seminars has been inserting our CE course registration forms in The Dental Trader steadily for almost ten years with wonderful results. Last year we decided to augment our fliers in The Dental Trader by mailing brochures (via USPS) to see if we could increase response. Now, a year later, after careful tracking we see the direct mail campaign did not increase our returns significantly and definitely did not justify the extra expense. We’re sticking with The Dental Trader, it works and is still the best value for our marketing dollar in Southern California. Erin Markewitz Senior Conference Manager Xcel Seminars Bruce, publisher of The Dental Trader expressed concerns about our initial display ad. In an effort to illustrate his ideas he and his team created an alternative ad for our consideration. I’m extremely particular with how the RepairMakers brand is presented so I wasn’t very receptive to his idea. However, after running our ad for 3 months we decided to give Bruce’s ad a try. It quickly became apparent that Bruce knows his readers. We received a greater response from Bruce’s ad over 1 month than we had received from our ad over 3 months combined. We now trust the The Dental Trader staff to create all of the ads we run in their publication (which they provide free of charge) and renewed for a year. Pate Savage RepairMakers The Dental Trader has been instrumental in helping us quickly get our brand introduced into the Northern California market. We achieved new business immediately after placing a full page ad. Thanks to Bruce and his awesome team, the response we have received as a result of The Dental Trader has been outstanding. Rod Johnston Omni Practice Group As a California Dental CPA and a Practice Broker it is important to reach a large audience and to stay relevant. The Dental Trader is reaches that audience and has proven to be a good source business for me. I have now known the owner, Bruce Carter, for 10 years. He is extremely knowledgeable of the dental world and has been instrumental to helping me grow my business. Ken Rubin Ken Rubin Practice Sales I have been advertising with the Dental Trader since 2004. I notice a significant increase in sales that I can trace directly to the Dental Trader. It’s the best bang for my advertising bucks. Lou Adiano Superior Dental Design Services Bruce and the Dental Trader has helped tremendously with the marketing and growth of my business as a practice consultant. Bruce’s knowledge and experience in the industry is an asset. The reality is…if you are involved in the dental industry anywhere in California, the Dental Trader is an undeniable force that should be included in your marketing repertoire. C. Kim Transitions Consultants Since advertising with the Dental Trader I have seen a significant increase in quality of new leads and calls. In fact, my very first month two such leads materialized into two clients. I am very happy that I am advertising in the Dental Trader and I highly recommend advertising in the Dental Trader to others who wish to grow their business. Amy L. Borden, Esq. A Professional Corporation The Dental Trader has been a great investment for Integrity Practice Sales. We receive solid leads each month and have been very pleased with the results. Bruce is always great to work with and I attribute part of our success to his good efforts. Thanks Bruce! I’m glad we’re working together. Bill Kimball, DDS Integrity Practice Sales The Dental Trader is a great asset for anyone wishing to advertise their business to the dental community in California. My law practice focuses exclusively on the legal needs of dentists and the Trader has allowed me to advertise directly to my potential clients and build name recognition. Given the lack of time dentists have to research products and services, this type of targeted advertisement is invaluable. Levi Barlavi Pacific Heath Law Group Two hours after placing my practice for sale ad on The Dental Trader website, I received my first inquiry. On the first day I had three interested buyers. If you want results, I recommend advertising in The Dental Trader. Dr. Seo Bruce! Keep up the good work you that do at The Dental Trader! Your publication is such a great tool for the dental community! Thank you so much from all of us! Ann Nguyen, DDS We altered all of our marketing materials after receiving recommendations from Bruce Carter, owner of The Dental Trader. His revisions to our ad message perfectly stated what we offer but had struggled to put into words. It is clear Bruce doesn’t just sell ad space, he goes above & beyond to ensure Dental Trader advertisers succeed. Ivan Lutin Nexus No dental publication has more ads from dentists than The Dental Trader. I have bought over a dozen items from doctors advertising in the Trader, attracted employees with my ads and even sold a few items to other dentists. The Dental Trader is the best! Ron P., DMD The response has been great with our initial advertisement. We will continue to advertise in The Dental Trader! Moe Essa Center Business Systems For 2 years I tried to sell my practice with different brokers, but I couldn’t. Then in 2007, I put an ad with the Dental Trader. Within one month, a different broker called me with a serious buyer, I sold it in 3 months. Call Bruce; The Dental Trader DOES WORK! Ehab Ismail, D.D.S. We exceeded our sales goal; so, we’re very happy with the turn out! We’ll be using Dental Trader again in the future. Let’s plan to do a northern CA insert before the CDA north! Thanks!!! Mindy Song SOTA IMAGING Just a note to say how happy I am with an ad I placed in the morning of April 10th that was answered in the afternoon of the same day. I am stunned that what I wanted to sell was sold only a few hours later. Very surprised and very happy with The Dental Trader! Dr. Reed I am a Dental Trader reader. I successfully located an associate dentist by advertising in The Dental Trader. Additionally, I found equipment and materials I needed being advertised at great prices. Recently I opened a second office in Rancho Santa Margarita with 10 treatment rooms and had space for sublease. The Dental Trader is helping me locate specialists to sublease the available treatment rooms too. I highly recommend advertising in The Dental Trader. Sincerely, Dr. Orly Taitz The American Academy of Facial Esthetics was skeptical about advertising in the Dental Trader at first but after we inserted our first CE course registration form, we became fans. Since then we have continued to place our brochures in the Dental Trader on an almost monthly basis and after two cycles we saw a 25% increase in our California registrations. The Dental Trader continues to be a reliable and affordable source of CE course registrants. Megan Savransky Director of Marketing American Academy of Facial Esthetics Thank you so much for listing my husband’s equipment and for all your help. We have been able to sell it all so there is no need to re-list them. We really appreciate your service to dentists. M. Landerman Bruce Carter is amazing. I talked to him today about placing an ad in the Dental Trader and he is a veritable source of information on all things dental. The advice I received from him in just 15 minutes of phone conversation was worth hours of legal expertise, and all for free! When placing an ad through him, I highly recommend first talking to Bruce, whether it’s to sell equipment, to sell or buy a practice, or just to be sure you’re on the correct road to future dental success. Ed Reifman, DDS I placed an ad selling some SCHICK CDR sensors I had for $4,000.00 in The Dental Trader. Before the ad was even published in the magazine the items were sold to doctors who saw em on the Dental Trader’s Online Ad Board. Response was fast and the ad was free . . . hard to beat that! Dr. Eric Prouty Costa Mesa, CA Bruce is a sensational man. The kind of honest and ethical professional, one would enjoy working with and having as part of one’s circle. Client after client of mine talks very highly of his business practices. It is not always business with him either. He enjoys the laughter in life, how he can make the experience of the customer, a pleasant one, and what he can do to maximize potential. If he can’t help an individual to accomplish the desired outcome, he makes sure he provides referral for the right avenues, a rare acumen for one in a competitive space. I am not sure if I admire that the most in him, or simply his persona and character. I am always impressed with the amount of knowledge he brings to the table, for every task that is put before him. He has the marketing angle figured out, and he knows how to reach the target viewer. I would highly recommend Bruce (and his services), which comes as a magnificent package, to my colleagues. Kianor Shah, DMD After much deliberation I finally decided to try advertising in The Dental Trader. My law firm received two calls on the first day the publication hit (October 1, 2012) from prospective clients. I can’t wait to see what the rest of the month holds! Chester Jeng-Law Office of Jeng & Associates I called The Dental Trader to place a display ad and Bruce (the owner) advised me not to do it. After discussing the matter for over an hour, he convinced me that placement of a display ad would be premature and unlikely to generate an acceptable profit due to the lack of visual aids needed to demonstrate how the product functions. He said he’d rather sacrifice my placement than publish an unsuccessful ad. That kind of honesty is rare and surprising. Kelvin Y Surgical Solutions USA My accounting firm has been advertising in The Dental Trader for many, many years and I recommend this publication to anyone wanting to reach dentists in California. The Dental Trader provides unsurpassed market coverage and produces exceptional results. Cuong Le Cuong Le, CPA, Inc. After decades doing business with Bruce, I can honestly say that The Dental Trader is the best way to brand a company in the California dental market. Everyone sees us in The Dental Trader and we have been in every issue. I would recommend The Dental Trader to anyone marketing to California’s dentist. Dennis Rosene Dennis Rosene Insurance Agency, Inc. Superior Upholstery has been advertising in The Dental Trader for many years. Every time our Dental Trader advertising hits the dental offices, our sales spike! Dental Trader readers are awesome!! Lou Adiano Superior Upholstery Response has been incredible! We have received numerous calls from dentists looking to volunteer in our clinic after seeing our ad in The Dental Trader. Very effective advertising! Sondra Contino San Gabriel Valley Foundation for Dental Health In November 2011 when it came time to list the sale of my seven digit dental practice, there were two publications reaching California dentists. . .The Dental Trader and the Dental Shopper. I carefully researched both magazines side-by-side and found 21.5 pages of advertising from brokers in The Dental Trader (along with several hundred ads placed by dentists). In the November Dental Shopper I only saw only 3 pages of advertising from practice brokers and about five dozen ads from doctors. I then realized that a serious buyer would be looking carefully at The Dental Trader. Now, one month later we have received dozens of calls from The Dental Trader ad, some firm offers and one great candidate whose paperwork is being processed by the bank. If you are a serious seller, make sure your practice is advertised in The Dental Trader. . .that is where the serious buyers are looking for dental practices. Sincerely, Dr. Ramtin Kheaf Los Angeles, CA We work with Bruce at The Dental Trader on a regular basis. We appreciate the professionalism and detail oriented service Bruce at The Dental Trader provides. Bruce goes out of his way to make sure his customer’s needs are met! Jill Mossor A. Lee Maddox, DDS, A Professional Law Corporation I have worked with Bruce Carter and the Dental Trader for 4 years now and I can truly say that they operate on the highest level of service and professionalism. Also, although our company pays to advertise in his publications, I don’t consider them a service provider, but instead they are an actual partner in our business. They not only provide a great avenue to get new clients but have also helped us with vendors, sponsors and other aspects of what we do. So although every business wants to use the cliche that they are a true partner to your business, do yourself a favor, use the Dental Trader and find out what that really means! Erin Markewitz Xcel Seminars I have had nothing but a wonderful experience with the staff at The Dental Trader! I have been working with Bruce there and he is on the ball with checking in to make sure we get what we need done in a timely manner. He brings a great and energetic attitude to his work and his clients. I highly recommend this company for anyone looking to work with a business that has a commitment to excellence and a wonderful work ethic. Kendall De Jong Northbay Networks I was delighted with The Dental Trader’s wonderful Graphics Staff. At the 11th hour they revised our ad and transformed it into a dynamic, visually compelling piece of art. They provide ad production services free of charge and completed revisions to our ad in the blink of an eye. This company is intensely service-oriented! Maxine Shapiro, Executive Director Association of Managed Care Dentists, AMCD I have been working with Bruce and the Dental Trader for years, his insight and professionalism have increased my knowledge in marketing and developing brand recognition. He is timely in his responses and critical when necessary to help his customers in receiving the best results for advertising in his trade journal. Highly recommend anyone looking for results in marketing a dental product throughout California to work with the Dental Trader. Harry Nelson Dansereau Health Products The Dental Trader has been invaluable as a advertising and marketing tool.

If you are in the Dental field then advertising with the Dental Trader is the best money you can spend towards advertising. Steve Caudill Caudill and Associates Practice Sales I’ve been using the Dental Trader for 7 years. It’s a great resource not only to find good deals but to also keep up with what’s going on in the dental community. The company leader, Bruce Carter, is a real gem and delight. Keep up the good work! Ken Rubin Ken Rubin & Company Dental Trader is honestly the best publication to advertise in. Not only are they honest but they are more than willing to go above and beyond their duties as a publication to assist their clients. The publication manager always offers great advice that will help you to make crucial decisions in the advertising world in general, not specifically with their publication. I recommend to anyone to use Dental Trader to advertise. Thanks Dental Trader for being so amazing!!! Elizabeth Salazar Ortho-Tech Global Bruce of the Dental Trader is the one to go to when you need to market your service or product. Over the years Bruce has helped me improve my marketing approach very successfully and I know that he will do the same for you. Don’t hesitate to give Bruce a call because he has your best interests in mind. George Fedyna Unique Interior Design In the first 10 days (when our first and only ad appeared on the Dental Trader website) we secured 85 dentists applicants and 16 vendor applications (brokers, attorneys, dental merchandise companies, etc). Once the edition arrived in print, our website visitations spiked. Our second ad is just hitting today and our Analytics Report shows we have generated 829 responses . . . all from The Dental Trader alone. Not bad for the first 6 weeks. Kianor Shah President Nexus Dentistry Dental Trader is both a professional and a relevant publication dedicated to the dental industry. We’ve found the people at Dental Trader a pleasure to work with. 5 stars all the way around. Great job Dental Trader. Keep up the good work.

Sue Peterson Practice Transition Partners LCF Financial has been doing business with Bruce since 1999 and during those years we have entrusted him with the task of preparing our display ads. Working together we have produced a successful ad campaign that not only generates sales leads but also distinguishes us from more traditional lenders. In a business where name recognition, branding and presenting a favorable company image are vital to securing new business, the Dental Trader staff has performed flawlessly. Loc Pham LCF Financial Services Bruce and his staff have been terrific. They took a real personal interest in my business and designed a great campaign to help us get our message out to the dental community. We are very pleased with the personal service we received as well as the true desire for our advertising to be successful for our business. Dr. Corey Gold President Advanced Continuing Education Systems The Dental Trader sales and graphics staff was instrumental in developing our ad campaign and provided highly detailed marketing recommendations to us. Immediately after our first ad broke, we signed enough new clients to more than pay for our entire ad campaign. We are deep in the black and very satisfied with the instant results of our Dental Trader advertising. Listen to Bruce, he knows his stuff. John Ross The Gold Measure The Dental Trader has been a godsend. By using the Dental Trader to distribute our 2 page insert, we saved about half off our original projections; which included buying a dental list and bulk mailing them. We saved money, time, and effort. The response rate we have seen from our initial launch surpassed our most optimistic estimates. We are pleased to say the least. John Chuang Owner Ararat Pharmacy Bruce has faithfully been providing my company with his services for around 8 years. We have continued preferring his advertising services due to the great results we achieve and also heavily on account of the excellence in which he runs his operations. Bruce and his staff are a pleasure to do business with and completely earn my endorsement. Shawn Zajas Dental Elite Premium Oral Care Products Bruce has solved the marketing concerns for myself and my organization, when we decided to advertise an event on his publication. Choosing Dental Trader was a simple job. Making sure the details were perfected in time, and with in-depth advice, was the difficult task, which Bruce had offered and completed. Great guy. Jin Kim Korean-American Dental Association I have worked with Bruce Carter non-stop since 1999, first as a marketing contractor with The Dental Shopper and now as the owner of The Dental Trader. He has always been enthusiastic and highly creative in teaching me about marketing, not just in general but for my highly specialized services. His office has developed “starter” ad layouts to spur my thinking, and has taken the time to discuss with me his reasoning and variations on proposed marketing themes. His suggestions and willingness to discuss different approaches have helped me differentiate myself from my competitors and to develop my own sense of marketing, both of which continue to serve me not only in his publication but in my internet and other marketing efforts. Thank you Bruce! Robert Olson Attorney at Law Our advertising in the Dental Trader has been instrumental in growing our business and Bruce literally makes it his business to help you advertise in a way that will optimize your company’s success.

In my dealings with Bruce I have found him helpful, honest and sincere. He says what he does and does what he says. A quality person with a quality business. Chris Golda California Dental Academy Our experience with the Dental Trader has been very successful for our dental society and myself personally. Bruce has been very accommodating to our schedule and our budget. The results have been fantastic in that we have been able to contact more dentists about dental society information than we had been able to prior to utilizing Bruce’s Dental Trader. Bruce has held to his word through our 4 year relationship and we are very pleased to the point of not even considering discontinuing our business relationship. I find it very easy and pleasurable to recommend Bruce and his Dental Trader to anyone wishing to advertise to the dental community. Dan Jenkins DDS., FICD, LVIF, CDE Certified Dental Editor – American Association of Dental Editors I hired Bruce to help us with an advertising package.

I have also found Bruce to be a great resource on what works and doesn’t work in advertising to California dentists. David Arnett Dentimax A great company to work with. When we started advertising in the Dental Industry, we approached many advertisers and this was the one that provided us the best response, most cost-effectively and most efficiently.

I appreciate that honesty and straightforward approach and that’s why I can’t recommend the Dental Trader highly enough.

At times we were simply unable to talk to every doctor, our sales staff was inundated with calls.

Bryan Corrigan DRP Dental Services – 562-902-0851 One of the many benefits of continuous advertising is that your name becomes so recognized, that you not only get calls from Dentists who need your services, but also referrals from Dentists that you have never worked with. When I follow-up with the referral source I am always amazed to hear that, “Yes Mr. Caudill, I have seen your advertising for years but have not needed your services to date, but a colleague of mine did, so I referred him to you.” The Dental Trader makes it happen, thanks Bruce!
