Podcast Partnerships

Reach practice owners through conversations worth hearing.

The Foundation Dental Podcast works with selected dental companies through partner features, episode sponsorships, and founding partnerships that combine both.

Discuss a Podcast Partnership

The names practice owners already listen to.

What would you bring to the conversation?

Who this is for

For companies with something dentistry needs to understand.

The conversations here are about how practices get built, run, and eventually handed off, and what it takes to last in the work. Money, people, patients, exits. The guests above are a sample of that range.

That’s why it fits companies that take a minute to explain. If a practice owner needs to understand what you do before they’ll buy it, this is where that understanding happens.

If your category isn’t listed, we’d still like to hear how your business serves dentistry.

Two ways to be heard

Depth

Partner Feature

A dedicated conversation about your company and why it matters, with questions that get beyond a quick introduction. Published as a full episode, with finished clips you can share on your own channels.

Frequency

Episode Sponsorship

Your company’s message, read by Dr. Jim Arnold at the top of an episode. Choose a single episode, or build a recurring presence with a block of episodes.

Depth builds authority. Frequency builds recognition. The founding partnership does both.

Beyond the recording

The conversation is the starting point.

A guest conversation with Vin Cardillo, and everything it became.

How partner features work

We do the preparation.

Before we record

Every conversation starts with research. Your company, your category, and the questions a practice owner would actually ask. Recording happens remotely from wherever you are, runs an hour and sometimes two, and plays as a conversation rather than an interview.

Before we publish

The cut, the title, the thumbnail, and the clip selection are ours. That’s what keeps the episode worth appearing in. You review for factual accuracy, and corrections are welcome. When it publishes, you can share and repurpose your episode and clips across your marketing channels, including paid advertising.

Common questions

A few details before we talk.

Can we start with a single episode?
Yes. A Partner Feature is available on its own, and Episode Sponsorship is available individually or in blocks of four. The Founding Partnership is a twelve-month commitment.
Who should the guest be?
Choose someone who knows your company’s work firsthand and can explain it with specific examples. A founder, company leader, or clinical lead who can discuss the decisions behind the work is a strong fit.
Does a Partner Feature include email distribution?
Yes. Every Partner Feature includes a mention in a regular Alliance email to dentists. A dedicated email is available as an addition, and one dedicated send is included with each Founding Partnership.
Does a Partner Feature include a company profile and blog?
Yes. Every Partner Feature includes a researched executive and company profile and a Foundation Dental Blog article. The Founding Partnership includes both with each of its three podcast features.
Can we use the episode and clips in our own marketing?
Yes. You can share and repurpose the approved finished episode, clips, profile, and blog across your website, social channels, email, and paid advertising. You can also create additional clips from the approved episode. Raw footage isn’t included.
Where do sponsor messages run?
At the top of a regular episode, read by Dr. Jim Arnold, with one sponsor per episode. Placements run on the next eligible published episodes and never on an episode covering that sponsor’s own category. Sponsorships are counted in episodes rather than weeks.
Does a partnership include category exclusivity?
The Founding Partnership includes exclusivity among paid Foundation Dental Podcast partners in an agreed category for twelve months. A single Partner Feature or Episode Sponsorship doesn’t include that protection.
When does the episode publish?
Publication timing is confirmed after recording, based on the production calendar.
Does every company qualify?
We consider each partnership individually, based on the value your company brings to dentistry and the conversation we can create for practice owners. We decline partnerships that don’t meet that standard.
How do we choose the right option?
Tell us about your company, what you want dentists to understand, and the kind of presence you’re looking for. We’ll discuss fit, scope, and pricing on a short call. You can also explore the full archive on the Foundation Dental Podcast page.
