Top Gun

Susan Dench is a seasoned marketing executive who has been cited by marketing guru, Seth Godin, for her outside-the-box business thinking. Her background includes sales and marketing stints at large (GE, HP), mid-sized (IDEXX) and venture funded (PinPoint) entities, working on product development and management, brand management, marketing communications, distribution, partnerships and market development with products ranging from light bulbs to cardiac monitors to high tech devices to animal diagnostics. She has started two companies, including The Muddy Dog®, which is breaking ground by creating a new product category and new distribution channels within an established and competitive arena, allowing her to combine her love of dogs with her passion for interior design.

In addition, Susan has pulled other Maine premium consumer products companies together to create a consortium for the shared purposes of brand enhancement and sharing of costs and best practices.
