Affordable Virtual Dental Care - Side Effect Support

Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Jill Meyer-Lippert, Founder of Side Effect Support LLC., located in Manitowoc, WI, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

Side Effect Support (https://sideeffectsupport.com/) is an online resource for cancer patients, family caregivers, and healthcare providers to reduce harmful oral side effects of treatments, improving quality of life while reducing pain and infection risks and the long-term negative impact on physical, emotional, and financial wellbeing.

Tell us about yourself

I have worked in dentistry for 30 years, and very early in my career, I witnessed firsthand the painful oral side effects that my mom experienced from chemotherapy. I realized that this was an area of cancer care that was severely underserved, leaving many to suffer from the negative impact on their mouth not only during their treatment process but also throughout survivorship. I searched desperately for a resource to help my family and my patients. When I realized that one did not exist, I decided to create one!

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

My greatest accomplishment will always be the feedback that I receive from cancer patients and their families that Side Effect Support has helped to improve their quality of life and their treatment experience.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

Being a business owner can be lonely at times, especially when your business is a unique niche. It can be hard for others to understand sometimes.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

1. Ask for help! There are a lot of great (and sometimes FREE) resources to provide guidance from more experienced business owners.
2. Network, network, network! Your success will depend on the relationships that you make.
3. Don't forget to take care of yourself. It's very easy to focus so much on growing your business that your own health and family life take a back seat.
