Hear all about the journey of Candace D’Agnolo, the CEO and Founder of Pet Boss Nation.  From failing to scaling, broke to naming her price and selling businesses, and from chained to her storefront to traveling the world. She has experienced firsthand the extreme struggles and successes of pet ownership since 2004 in starting and running three businesses. In this episode, you’ll hear about the early years, the hard years, and then the “She finally figured it out” years that happened before she even started Pet Boss Nation!

In this episode, you’ll hear all about the blood, sweat, and tears (along with the drama) that went with running a dog empire while managing multiple locations and types of businesses. Believe us when we say that she’s seen everything, from several recessions, employee theft, huge bank debt, to personal hardships; and a lot of these came from simply growing too fast in her businesses, among other things shared in this episode.

Halfway through her pet career Candace learned that she really loved small business and invested heavily in her professional and personal development. She welcomes you to learn from her experiences so you don’t make the same mistakes, and be inspired by her journey to go for your dreams! Whether it’s that you want to be out of debt, pay yourself, build the dream team, take time off, open another location, or retire, whatever it is, we are here to support your dream and help you achieve it.

Press play on this episode to get all the juicy details and inspiration you need in your pet business!
