‘PAWS FOR THOUGHTS’

Has a nice ring to it doesnt it?

I am trying to start a business that I can grow from, but I don't know where to find the products so that I can turn a profit from selling the items. Anyone have ideas? Thanks in advance!

Well just google unique pet products and look at the manufacturers…then look under wholesale or call them and they will tell you the discount also the more you buy the cheaper they will sell them to you….

I want to do painting and photography, but i don't know where to start or how to market myself?

Cool! Make up business cards, develop a website with a portfolio of your work, advertise with flyers at local vets, pet stores, groomers, kennels, Curves, teacher's lounges etc. Good luck! That's awesome! I'd love to find out more about your services. I have a painting that I'd love to have made of one of my cat's that has passed.

Hope this helps.

If you have a dog and you had to leave town for about a month on a business trip and couldn't bring your dog what would you truthfully do? Would you call a pet-sitting business?

How can I get customers?

I have in the past. However, I prefer the pet-sitter to come to my home and feed my dog, take her for a walk, etc..

You really need to network. Talk to the people you know that have pets, offer the service. Talk to your vet — they probably get a lot of requests. Once you've been able to do this service for a few people, let them know you're always looking for new customers. If they are satisfied with your performance, they will recommend you to friends.
