Low Cost Franchise Opportunities

With the help of Splash and Dash and the low cost franchise opportunities, opening your own pet business is extremely easy. The planning all comes down to the startup and the kick off. As you plan the big GO (Grand Opening) and build the anticipation and clientele, check out these fun things to try as you get ready to open your business.

1. Big. Big. BIG.

Thanks to low cost pet franchise opportunities, it’s easier than ever to make the grand opening an event. Keep this in mind when you’re preparing to open your own store and turn it into something. Perhaps a block party if you have neighbor businesses or consider a freebie event to pull clientele in from day one.

2. Make it a Game

Consumers love competition and games. Take your low cost franchise opportunities to the next level by creating an app on their phone that could rank visits or purchases, or customer loyalty, but give it a fun name to keep them coming back if for nothing other than to buy more than their friends.

3. Simplicity is #1

Boost your low cost franchises opportunities by making the website simple to read. With a clean, but basic layout, it will be easy on the eyes and simple to navigate for current and future consumers.

4. Give Incentives for Sharing

Low cost franchises opportunities have an excellent resource in social media and prizes when it comes to referring others. Create some creative, yet inexpensive giveaway for people who come through referral such as a free bath, free bag of treats… anything you can think of that’s simple and easy to do.

5. Save the Best for Last

While you’re building up your business just before opening, remember that the tease is what’s important. Don’t give it all away before you have them stop in the shop. Some level of mystery keeps people coming back, assuming it’s something like, “What will they have next”.

4 Important Reasons Why You Need A Pet Grooming Franchise

/in /by

The pet industry is a growing one and owning a pet grooming franchise is probably one of the better franchises to start in 2015. Grooming is so much more than making a dog smell good and look clean and here’s why you should get in on it:

1.Play Dirty, Live Clean

pet grooming franchisingIs the motto. At Splash and Dash we believe that a dog’s only job is to live a fun and healthy life. As the owner of a pet grooming franchise it’s your privilege to give dogs that ability. Through grooming, a dog is transformed. They know when they’re carrying around extra layers of fur, when their nails are too long that it’s uncomfortable and when you groom a dog, you will see their personality and disposition change. It can turn an older dog into a puppy again, a dog that seems weighed down can become light on her feet. As a pet groomer, you become the channel that allows dogs to be their best selves.

2.Warn of Disease

Working in a pet grooming franchise actually gives you the chance to warn pet parents of possible skin problems like dry skin or even skin disease. Groomers see probably thousands of dogs a year, so they get used to seeing healthy skin and they understand what healthy and unhealthy looks like. As a pet grooming franchise owner, you give pet parents the opportunity to catch skin disease early by providing them with a groomer who knows what they’re doing. It’s likely that the pet will always see the groomer more often than a vet.

3.Grooming Isn’t Just Bathing

While many pet parents might get the idea that all their pup will need is a bath every now and then, but grooming is so much more than a bath. It includes nail trimming, teeth brushing, removal of undercoats, winter coats, and excess hair, and can also include breed-specific styling and hair dying. Many pet parents aren’t equipped to handle even bathing their dogs due to disposition or lack of equipment and where a dog plays, a dog will always need a cleaning.

4.Pet Grooming Franchise Allows for Recurring Revenue
There are only a few businesses out there that take advantage of recurring revenue and a pet grooming franchise is one of them. Gyms requiring memberships are another. Recurring revenue is income or cash-flow that comes in on a regular basis on usually a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis. Other businesses include real estate like renting, where there’s a contracted, expected payment on a certain day each month. Another could be credit card annual fees. By running a Splash and dash pet grooming franchise, you’re able to wield the same membership revenue power as any gym, promising a minimum income each month pending on subscriptions and that’s something that no other pet grooming franchise does.
