In this episode, I’m talking with Courtney Nichols-Gould of SmartyPaws. She’s on a mission to make your whole family healthier – even your dog! We talk about how to get started in the pet industry, from deciding if your product solves a real problem to how you can get more visibility in a competitive market. Courtney also talks about how important it is to consider the environment and pet parent lifestyles in your business decisions. Stick around to the end of the episode to hear how she met her two rescue dogs – Pig and Bandit.
