    Connect Veterinary Consulting Launches Strategic Whiteboarding Session
    New Service Helps Veterinary and Pet Brands Align Strategy, Messaging, and Growth Plans

     

    Kansas City, Missouri (July 7, 2025). Connect Veterinary Consulting, a leading veterinary marketing strategy firm, announces the launch of a new service offering: a focused 2-hour virtual whiteboarding session designed to help pet, vet, and animal health brands clarify their marketing strategy and move forward with confidence.

    This service was created in response to growing demand from early-stage startups, growth-phase brands, and commercial leaders who are navigating a complex and evolving animal health landscape.

    “Many of the brands we work with are stuck in what I call ‘strategy limbo,’” said Dr. Meghan Burns, DVM, President of Connect Veterinary Consulting (Connect VC). “They have good ideas, great products—but they’re missing alignment between teams, or clarity on how to actually go to market. This session is a high-impact way to fix that quickly.”

    During the virtual session, participants work one-on-one with Dr. Burns to tackle key business challenges such as:

     

      • Build/refine a go-to-market strategy

     

      • Align product, marketing, and sales teams

     

      • Clarify brand messaging and positioning

     

      • Unlock stalled growth or market entry

     

    Unlike generic workshops or templated audits, each session is personalized to the client’s business needs and draws on Connect VC’s deep experience across companion animal, diagnostics, therapeutics, devices, and beyond.

  • Translating a Technical Message

    Translating a Technical Message

    When translating a technical message, Connect Veterinary Consulting President, Dr. Meghan Burns, DVM relies on her education and industry experience to hit the mark. Her mission is simple: connect her customers with their target audience, colleagues, and industry partners in a way that is clear, credible, and compelling.

    In veterinary medicine and animal health, the message matters. Products, services, and innovations often come with complex science, technical data, regulatory considerations, and clinical nuance. But if that information is not translated in a way the audience understands, it can fall flat.

    Dr. Burns states, “It comes down to what works best for your brand, what you are trying to convey, and your advertising and promotion budget.” No matter the audience it’s really all about finding that “magic in a product”.

    In a sense, it’s about interrogating products (as some may say in marketing) until they confess their strengths. From there, those strengths must be translated for different audiences, whether that is veterinarians, pet owners, sales teams, investors, distributors, or industry partners.

    That translation is where strategy meets science.

    A strong technical message should do more than explain what a product does. It should help the audience understand why it matters, how it fits into their world, and what makes it valuable. That requires both scientific credibility and marketing clarity.

    This is the central philosophy behind Connect Veterinary Consulting and what Dr. Burns is so passionate about: helping animal health companies communicate with confidence, relevance, and purpose.
