5 Reasons to Quit Your Job Now

/in /by

Most people accept that their life is working a 9 to 5 job and saving for their retirement. They think about all the things they will do when they retire and how life will be so great. However, many people this isn’t really how retirement works anymore. Instead of relying on an old cliche and finding out it’s not how things work, consider these 5 helpful reasons of why you should quit your job now and look at buying pet franchises.

 

1. Retirement Savings Plan Just Aren’t Enough

The old school of thought with retirement savings plans was to put money into a 401(k) or IRA. While these are still great options for your retirement plan, they simply are not enough to help you get through retirement. Rather you need a system that allows you to put large amounts of cash into your savings, such as with pet franchises.

 

2. Your Job is Just a Job- Not a Passion

Life is short. No one wants to spend their life in a dead-end job with the fear of being fired looming over them all the time. Now add in the fact that this is a job that they do not even like and it is the recipe for a depressing life. Considering that the typical person will spend more time at work than with their family, you owe it to yourself to make it something you love. If you are not in love with what you do, now is the time to change it. Animal lovers find that pet franchises are not only an excellent way to make the income they need but also do something they are passionate about.

 

3. There Are Too Many People Who Can Make in Your Life

Think about all the people who hold the power to make life-altering decisions in your life. Your supervisor is able to approve or deny the vacation you have been planning for two years. Your boss can fire you. The corporate office can shut down your branch and you are out of a job. When you go into business for yourself, you will be the only one making these serious life decisions. With pet franchises of your own, you’re calling all the shots.

 

4. You Will Never Get the Life You Want From Your Job

Do you dream of having a life of abundance where you can set your own schedule and truly enjoy life? You may think that if you get promoted at your job to a certain position that this will do it for you. The problem with this logic is that it often doesn’t happen. More than that you may find yourself less happy and not having the abundance you we’re hoping for. Owning pet franchises may give you the freedom you want to do what you want in ways that your current job cannot.

 

5. You Don’t Have to Jump Right into Pet Franchises

Cultivate Success in Your Pet Food Franchise

/in /by

You’ve taken a huge step on opening your own pet food franchise. Opening a store is a daunting task with a lot of hard work and perseverance put into it. Once it’s open, the hard work doesn’t cease, but it does shift. To heighten the chance of success, think about adding some of these things to your daily routine as you run your pet supply franchise.

1. Know Your Store and Customer

As you planned your pet food franchise, you should have created a business plan which included what you consider to be the core values of your pet store. Consider who your target customer is. Are you high end, luxury, organic, wet, dry, treat-based, or bakery? Having a clear vision of who you and your customers are will assist in giving you a vision and a direction for your pet supply store overall.

2. Set a Routine

Write a daily routine that you will stick with as you come into your pet food franchise every day. Make it tentative so if something comes up, you do have a bit of flexibility. Remember to write a special block of time aside to tackle the harder problems every week. You will want different routines for different jobs as you, the cashiers, and the groomers will all have different needs in your pet supply franchise.

3. Be the Boss

It sounds like a given, but as you run your pet food franchise, especially if it’s your first time in a management or leadership position, it can be hard to recognize that you are end-all boss. When problems or questions arise in your pet supply franchise, be as direct as you can. A Wishy-washy leader not only takes longer to make decisions, but can suck the confidence and respect out of their employees. Remain confident, think of what is best in the terms of everyone, but make a decision and stick to it.

4. Go Home and Stop

Once you open a pet food franchise, it can be really easy to get caught up in working. You might be obsessed with it for the first few months to the point that even on your ‘days off’ you’re thinking or working or even checking up on it. An important part of cultivating success is to remember to take a break. You have hired competent people. They will call you if there is a problem or your store is closed today all together. Just let it sit, put it in the back of your mind, and have a relaxing day with your friends, family, or self. If you stress about it all weekend, you will begin to dread it. Your pet supply franchise can last a day or two without you—especially if it’s closed, so take your time, recuperate, then come back feeling refreshed.
