      I've helped many dental KOLs hone their writing chops

      and get published - I can help you too!

    • ALLOW ME TO INTRODUCE MYSELF

      My name is Michael Ventriello. I'm an award-winning marketing communications writer, former journalist, dental marketing strategist, and frequently published dental author.

       

      For more than a decade, I've helped many of today's most prominent dental industry KOLs and C-level executives launch and sustain their writing careers. I continue to work with established dental authors and industry executives to help them improve their writing skills and edit their articles, books, and presentations.

       

      I started The Dental Writers Academy with the sole purpose of coaching and mentoring the next generation of aspiring dental authors.

       

      But enough about me! Are you a dental professional yearning to share your insights, opinions and expertise via published articles, but don't know where to start? I can help you get on the fast track to establishing yourself as a published dental industry expert when you enroll in The Dental Writers Academy.

      3) BEAT WRITER'S BLOCK!

       

      Look familiar? It's the dreaded white screen of death. The one thing that strikes fear in the hearts of novice and veteran dental writers alike.

       

      There are ways to ensure that you can find a topic to write about and build a robust pipeline of articles.

       

      I'll share my thought-starter ideas so you too can defeat the white screen of death.

      Writing well is more than basic grammar. It's also matter of style.

       

      Style is what makes one thesaurus option better than another. It's also what makes writing more personal, conversational and engaging.

       

      You and I will discuss the elements of writing style as well as grammar and proper use of references throughout my 4-month mentoring program.

      5) WEEKLY VIRTUAL MENTORING

       

      Once you enroll in the Dental Writers Academy, you'll gain weekly video coaching access to yours truly.

       

      In between our weekly sessions, I am accessible via email or text messaging if you are at a sticking point or want to discuss an idea that just popped into your head!

      Should you hire me as your personal writing coach? Here's what

      Dental professionals and KOLs have to say:

      Margaret Scarlett, DMD

       

      Michael Ventriello knows writing, period. If you are thinking about improving your writing skills to add to your professional and personal success, call or email him right now!

       

      Because my training is in writing for scientific publications, I used to find it hard to write to other audiences. Utilizing skill, humor, and tact, he has guided me on the best way to target key messages, by tailoring them to different audiences. These audiences have been within and outside of the dental profession about my favorite topic-dentistry!

       

      I not only feel more confident, it has been so much fun that I didn't realize until I looked back on some of our past collaborations as to how much I have learned from him.

       

      If you are ready to add writing to your success goals this year, Mike is the person you want for a coach, mentor, and message creator.

       

       

      Julia Heinrichs, DDS

       

      Working with Michael has been a key point in my entire dental career. He masters writing, he knows almost everyone in the industry, and he’s a caring mentor as well.

       

      Michael’s ahead of curve by knowing the latest trends in dentistry, thus staying pertinent to new topics. He’s an incredible editor who doesn’t change your voice or point of view, he simply brings out the best in what you have to offer.

       

      It is rare to learn from someone of his caliber, so I highly recommend working with Michael if provided the opportunity!

      Debra Zafiropoulos, RDH

       

      What can I say about working with Michael Ventriello?

      NOT ENOUGH!

       

      Several years ago, Michael had compassion for this neophyte writer and speaker.

       

      Under his direction, gentle persuasion, and amazing foresight, I have become a published author, Key Opinion Leader, and well-respected resource in my profession.

       

      If you have the opportunity to work with Michael, my advice to you is to TAKE IT!

      Patti DiGangi, RDH, BS

      Working with Michael Ventriello is amazing! For many years, he's been my ‘go-to guy’ for all things regarding writing - including helping me come up with compelling article ideas.

       

      In 2017 alone, he helped me edit 32 articles and 2 books. Michael helps be the best writer I can possibly be!

      Lisa C. Wadsworth, RDH, BS

      Are you looking to learn how to put words together in a sensible, powerful way to get your point across and promote your personal brand?

       

      If so, Michael Ventriello is your man. His editorial sense for forward-thinking topics and his laser focus on honing your message is what separates him from other writing mentors and coaches.

       

      For me, his caring, pointed, and powerful attention to “my message” helped bring my articles to a higher level of acceptance in virtually all hygiene and dental journals.

       

      Do what I did. Let Mike guide you, mentor you, and above all, be open to the journey, it works!
