5 Reasons Why You Need Professional Development in Your Pet Business

Have you been trying to go it alone in your pet business for far too long? 

Is Google only getting you so far? 

Our CEO, Candace D’Agnolo, was once up to her neck in business debt while running her pet businesses. She was stressed out, overworked, and got to a point where she had two options: 

✅ Make better business decisions, OR

❌Lose all your money and walk away.  

Then one day, she received a message from a friend that changed everything. 

The message was an invitation to attend a business conference, and with how things were going in her pet business, she knew she had to take a chance on something. 

And thank goodness she did… 

That conference was the beginning of her professional development journey. After that conference, Candace realized what the missing piece to her puzzle was: 

Investing in professional development on an ongoing basis and getting the support she needed to be a true Pet Boss. 

After beginning that professional development journey, Candace eventually hit a 7-figure year and, a few years later, sold all of her businesses for an amazing profit. 

See why we are always preaching about professional development?! Pet Boss Nation’s CEO experienced its power firsthand, and now we witness countless other pet professionals experience it too. 

So why do you need professional development in your pet business? Let us count the ways: 

1. Because, as we said, Google will only get you so far. 

The internet has a lot of information, but that can be a blessing and a curse. Combing through a Google search is like finding a needle in a haystack. You’re not going to get to the root of what your unique business needs are, and it’ll be information overload. Professional development is personalized to your needs as a business owner, and you can stay laser-focused rather than getting buried by too much information. 

2. To sharpen your business skills. 

Managing cash flow and daily operations in your pet business is no easy feat! Professional development not only gives you the confidence you need to run a business, but it teaches you the actual skills you need to run one successfully… and opens your eyes to where you might need to make some tweaks (that will make you more money). 

3. To keep up with marketing tactics. 

There are some tried and true marketing tactics that you can always come back to or put a new spin on, and then there are the ever-evolving marketing tactics (helloooo, social media). Rather than researching what’s working NOW all the time, invest in professional development to help you keep up and find what works best for your pet business in an ever-changing world. 

4. To strengthen your leadership skills. 

A great leader isn’t afraid to continue their education for the team’s good. By surrounding yourself with other pet business leaders, you’ll keep learning and growing, and your business will reap the benefits. Some of those benefits include a positive work culture and lower turnover rates, which you know you need more of in your life! 

5. For community support. 

There is just no beating a community of like-minded pet professionals who have your back! They have seen your struggles, share in your triumphs, and just “get it.” They root for you, help you grow, and give you hope when running a pet business feels extra tough. You share with each other– what’s working, what’s not, and what to do next. We are all better together, and we witness this truth every day in the Pet Boss Nation® community. 

To wrap up our intro story, one thing Candace noticed when she pursued her professional development was the gap between the pet industry and niche-focused professional development opportunities…
