Where the work comes from

Why introductions work for a dog groomer or dog walker

Your best referrals rarely come from online advertising. Instead, they come from people who already work with busy dog owners and new puppy owners. That’s why vets, pet shops and estate agents make natural referral partners for every dog groomer or dog walker.

Inside a Thursday meeting

Members meet every Thursday between 6:30am and 8:30am, so it’s done before the working day gets going. Each week you have 60 seconds or more to tell the room about your services. Outside the meeting, members book 1-2-1s to learn what each other is looking for.
