This solo episode is part 2 of a series about starting a new dog service business (or not!). I’ve been looking for a way to find excitement and motivation in my business after getting burned out over the last couple of years. I’ve taken steps to become certified as a Canine Enrichment Technician because I believe that knowledge would improve pets’ lives.
Since talking about this in Part 1 on Episode 204, I’ve spent time brainstorming with a pet industry friend, evaluating my goals and performing a SWOT analysis on this dog service business idea.
In this episode I share my latest thoughts on how I feel I can best impact the lives of pets through canine enrichment education.
How to Determine if a New Dog Business is a Good Idea
One of the best ways to work out if a new business idea, product or campaign is worth it for your pet business is to brainstorm with other women who get it. There’s no better place to get that community support than in Wear Wag Repeat Society!
If you want to become a part of WWR Society, the gates will be opening at the beginning of April. That’s just in time to participate in April’s monthly theme of Peer Website Audits. We’’ll match members up to evaluate each other’s websites or social profiles.
I’ll facilitate these peer audits with a list of guided questions like:
How easy is it to join their email list?
Can you easily find their about page?
Does the about page help establish their like-know-trust factor?
These are all elements that have been taught in previous monthly lessons in the member area. As a member you get access to the archives back to January 2021. Get on the waitlist now at wearwagrepeat.com/society
