Meet the Meatballs - Second Course - Alison Micheletti

At first glance, Alison’s humble demeanor might fool you, but Alison is not only an expert on dental marketing, she also has the pedigree to back it up. Alison brings an MBA to the party which she pairs with critical thinking skills akin to Leonardo da Vinci and the thoughtful ex*****on of Bob Ross.

Alison is originally from Northeast Pennsylvania and is currently an Account Executive at Golden Proportions Marketing. In her spare time, you can find her playing field hockey, tending to her honey bees, or losing at “Jeopardy!”. While she doesn’t particularly enjoy meatballs, Alison would eat gnocchi every day if she could, something her Nonna would be proud of.

Let's meet the Meatballs! Up first -- Christina Sarge.

Christina's vibrant and vivacious personality spreads to everyone she talks to, and trust us, she'll talk to anyone about anything. She’s always positive in nature (perhaps thanks to her Catholic guilt), rocks her 4-inch heels almost every day, and believes glitter can change the world.

Born and raised in a large Italian family in Central Pennsylvania, Christina spends her days as an Account Executive at Golden Proportions Marketing. Most of her free time is occupied by running her kids to practice or playdates and attending loud family dinners packed full of organized chaos and of course, plenty of meatballs.

Thanks for joining the Marketing Meatball Mafia! We’re here to provide a safe space for dentists, dental office team members, and industry leaders to share their knowledge, talk about this crazy business of dentistry, and help each other succeed. While our expertise lies in creating and executing strategic dental marketing, we understand that in order to successfully market a practice we must look beyond good advertising alone. That’s why we carefully curate our guests and topics across multiple disciplines.

Here’s what you can expect from our episodes:
- Real advice from real people
- Free resources
- Ideas for days
- Too many bad meatball jokes

We do ask that participants follow a few rules including:
- No spamming or self-promotion
- No negativity, bullying, or disrespect
- Be nice to each other, we’re all in this together

If these rules are violated, we will issue one warning. After that, you will be removed.
