A SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty Case Study
Avalon Biomed, founded by Carolyn Primus in 2010, needed help growing and managing its business while staying FDA-compliant on a limited budget. The company manufactures bioactive dental cements sold directly to dentists and through dental dealers worldwide, and Primus turned to SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty for guidance after already getting a product to market but needing to increase sales.
With help from SCORE Mentors Berks and Schuylkill Cty, Primus received monthly mentoring on financial and marketing strategy, dealer relationships, promotion, and performance tracking against budget, plus support when she decided to sell the business. The mentorship helped Avalon Biomed introduce new products, increase sales, achieve profitability, and ultimately attract another company to purchase the business.
