Ba(y)thing Bathe Long a Ay

Can I please get ur work book

Ahhh thank you thank you I was just thinking and scared of my prices but I thought the same thing and seeing this video just validated my feeling so thank you 😊

Wow ....i have no paitence to just listen to talks

Could I have the workbook pls

I love playing with pets and make my career in pet grooming . From where should I start I am 19 years old

Potential to charge more is an understatement Mobile groomer charge double in my area

Also..the healing sessions i love tht idea! is there classes Reiki for animals??

I agree..i did 3 or 4 dogs and other girls 6+..I thought i was slow. But I now see how miserable the other girls were and made me miserable! I left ! Now about to go on my own! ❤

How do you prevent the back from getting wet when it’s a rainy day and your doors are open?

I am starting to gather all the infomations about becoming the groomer..i hope that i start at 35 is not too late.. love your vids

I know this video made in 2019, but $2400 is really low I made way more in 2019 as a W2 employee. I worked at places where I made $850/week after tax and made $2100/week after tax at another place. Also how moch we make is depends on the salon how much their base price is and if they allow the groomers to charge for extra work and add on services thats being said. At the same grooming place where I made $2100 /week after tax, sone co-workers made only $850/week only with even more years of experience than I had. The difference comes down whn you charge your worth and offer extra services or not. So I reccomend everyone to look around and only work at places where they give at least 50% commission on a W2 and you can charge for extra work such as de-matting, de-sheeding , pre shave or hand scissoring. and they also have different add on services. If they only have a low hourly price or you cant add extra services you can't make enough money and it wont be worth it

How can you manage the water amount? This is my biggest fear I will run out. Are you only shampoo them 1 time? Do you need to refill the tank?

Thank you for the helpful info.

So I opened my mobile business 3 months ago. I am priced $10 more than some of the other mobiles. I get a lot of inquiries but I probably get 1 out of 20 to actually book. People want the convenience of mobile but do not want to pay the price. What can I do to convince people to go with me. All my prices are inclusive as well. I'm so at a loss. I am averaging with just 3 days a week around 4000 a month but I'm seeing others saying they average 10000 a month. I feel like I'm not getting the business fast enough.

Could I please have one😊

Thank you. You helped me with my little shitzu with multi color toes

Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience

Good video 😊

Can you do a video on the financial side of Mobile Grooming? For example, a business budget for mobile. How did you learn to run your business? I would love to learn how to manage a 1 groomer-1 van business like yours.

Love this tip! Asking clients about their top priority for their pet’s grooming helps build trust and ensures happy, comfortable pets. Great advice for any pet care business!

Yes please could I get your workbook

Hey Friends!! Do any of you have tips on how to find out the exact length your clients want? Leave them down below if you do! Sending my love 💜Savana

First off I want to say that I’m very sorry for your loss of your beloved pet ❤ My dog has cancer in her toe/nail and I’m debating putting her through surgery to get it amputated. She’s almost 13 years old and a large breed. If you don’t mind me asking how old was Rufus when he went through surgery?

Hey friends! Do you have any tips for giving your clients the exact groom they want? Leave them here so we can help eachother out! 💜

My starting point is 110 for smalls. That is a tiny bit higher then the competition and i have had inquiries but not many bookings. Its all sounds good in theory but if youre not getting business, then youre not making money. Whatcdo you do?

Yeah my business is a flop after 6 years because my first year my average transaction was SIXTY DOLLARS!!!!!

What are your thoughts on groomers charging per hour?

Do you think it would work for house call as well. (Setting a higher price). I want to charge more but feel people would complain because I’m using their electric/water. Plus I’m trying to build a clientele so I tend to price low.

Agreed with not adopting the ‘competition’ mindset. I learned to stop giving large discounts. The same clients who watched me work 14+ hours in one day on their dogs and gave them a big discount later complained about my costs while having high maintenance dogs that they don’t brush or bathe for months. Dematting is a specialty that I offer where most groomers will shave that dog down because they don’t have the time to spend removing the mats. Their prices are low and so there is no way they can take the time needed for lengthy grooms. I definitely don’t have a standard price because every dog is different and the work is different as well. I have been considering it and started testing it out on one client… Your advice on not doing it will be taken though because it means dreading jobs that are more intense and being paid the same for less intense jobs. I do give cost guidelines. I advise that the final cost is dependent on the work completed and have posted a starting cost. I’ve also separated work. A bath and dry doesn’t cost the same as a cut bath and dry. Longer fur takes more time and so I add $3 or so as the fur goes up in length. I’ve never done the expenses advice. I think this end of the year will help me to do this. I have posted my pricing guidelines on WhatsApp along with service guidelines on what to expect and what not to expect. I add what is not tolerated either such as negligent pet owners. They tend to blame everyone but themselves for the issues their pets have. I avoid potentially bad clients. Once or twice I’ve given them the benefit of the doubt just to be burned badly soon after. I have much higher prices than everyone else on island. Sometimes there are doubts because I don’t have a high influx of clients. Today I have many more than 6 months ago. I go at my own pace and have learned that my price does not need to be justified. I work hard and do my best. The prices were set with intentionality over a period of 3 months. If it is too high then someone else is more affordable and I direct them there. Thanks for sharing these. I’ll definitely take some of the advice given. It is good. Thanks for this channel!

Hey friends! 👋 What are your top tips for setting your prices?? 🐾 Does this video make you want to change some things? 💜 Thank you for watching!!

Great video. I stopped grooming, right before the pandemic and been trying to get back to grooming again

How old is Gracy

Hey guys! Let me know how you are taking advantage of being a pet groomer below! 💜

Hello I'm interested in the Workbook

This video spoke to me on a deep level. Thank you Savana!

In OKC thinking of mobile pet grooming with my oldest daughter…. Free workbook?

I think part of grooming is building the relationship from day 1, so they remember how fun it was and eventually look forward to it. Walks and treats not abandoning them for hours

Great video! But you forgot to talk about the water tanks :(
