The tariff situation is changing rapidly, and it’s already affecting your pet business – whether you realize it or not! 📊

In this episode, Candace breaks her silence on this complex topic to give you the straight facts about what’s happening with tariffs, how they impact the pet industry specifically, and most importantly – what YOU can do about it right now.

You’ll learn: 

💼 What tariffs actually are and who REALLY pays them (hint: it’s not other countries!) 

💼 The current status of tariffs 

💼 How pet foods, accessories, toys, and even veterinary supplies are being affected 

💼 Why your supply chain is already being disrupted (40% emptier shipping containers!)

💼 Practical strategies to handle customer objections about rising prices 

💼 How to communicate effectively with both customers and employees about price changes

Don’t miss the powerful real-world example showing how a small business owner’s $40,000 budget potentially becomes a $145,800 invoice when hit with these tariffs.

This episode provides the clarity and action steps you need in these uncertain economic times.
