Community
Your business doesn't have to grow alone.
Running a pet business often means being the owner, the marketer, the accountant and the person doing the actual work. It can be a lonely way to spend a career.
Referrals that go both ways
A groomer who knows a good trainer, and a trainer who knows a good groomer, both look better to their customers.
Knowledge worth sharing
Pricing, insurance, difficult clients, quiet months. The answers usually exist already — somebody has just been through it.
Local connections
Knowing the businesses around you turns competitors into colleagues, and makes the whole local industry stronger.
Genuine relationships
Not contacts collected at an event. People you would actually call.
Looking ahead
What we're working towards
None of this exists yet. It is where we would like to take things, and it will be shaped by the people who turn up.

Start with one evening.
The easiest way into a community is to come to something. Our first event is a Christmas social.
