Orabrush was also recognised as one of the 10 most iconic ad moments on YouTube alongside billion dollar brands. DenTek Oral Care acquired the Orabrush brand in 2014. The “Molio Method” has been touted as a disruptive approach for building brands and has been recognised by AdAge, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, TechCrunch, ABC’s Nightline, MediaPost and Bloomberg TV. Jeff is a rare executive that has run global billion dollar businesses and has also successfully launched two startups with successful exits.

About Cynthia: Cynthia is a self proclaimed startup ninja. She knows how to dig into any idea and find the gold, the killer feature, the thing users absolutely cannot live without and she helps entrepreneurs turn their idea into a business that will make real money. She began coding at 8 years old, and over the past several decades has learned what great technology implementations look like from some of the smartest people in the industry. Her past experiences building startups have given her a unique lens which allow her to examine what would work for other business types in tech and how to apply those processes and methodologies for other people who have great tech ideas. She’s developed the curriculum for the Raika Technologies and GotAnAppIdea.com Startup Program based on what she did with her own companies and those of her clients, all for one guiding purpose: to help new app and tech entrepreneurs spend as little time and money as possible evaluating their idea, helping them get to a go-no-go decision quickly and efficiently. She’s even developed a process to help stakeholders, Project Managers, Product Managers and IT professionals at all size companies test new ideas without impacting their teams, road maps and corporate priorities. In short, she helps companies and entrepreneurs get things done!
