Where the work comes from

How introductions work for a dog groomer or dog walker

The warmest introductions don’t often come from online marketing. They come from businesses who already work with busy dog owners and new puppy owners – often right at a new puppy or a return to the office. That’s why vets, pet shops and estate agents make natural referral partners for any dog groomer or dog walker.

Inside a Thursday meeting

We meet every Thursday from 6:30am to 8:30am, so it’s done before the working day gets going. Every week you have 60 seconds or more to present your business – roughly double some larger networking groups allow. Outside the meeting, members arrange 1-2-1s to learn who makes a good referral, and there’s a genuine social side too.
