Ep. 23 Maximizing Revenue with Limited Space: Creative Strategies for Pet Care Businesses

42 minutes

Do you want to offer more enrichment and exercise services but feel held back by your existing facility?

Are you struggling to maximize revenue with limited space, shortage of staff, and lack of resources?

Want to learn the secret to adding upsell services even when you have limited indoor and no outdoor space?

Then join us in this episode of the Pet Boarding and Daycare Podcast, where host Dom Hodgson chats with Tania Isenstein. Tania shares her journey from corporate law to transforming a struggling pet care facility into a top-tier business in Manhattan.

She discusses how she introduced creative services like art classes, Reiki sessions, and more to increase revenue and build a community.

Plus, Dom shares how you can use customer appreciation events and open days, to create deep connections with local dog owners. These events foster trust and demonstrate your commitment to their pets’ well-being, positioning your facility as the go-to pet care partner in the community.

In this episode, you’ll learn about:

Creative Add-Ons: How to implement unique services like bedtime stories, belly rubs, and park walks to boost revenue.

Community Building: Fostering a sense of belonging among clients by adding engaging innovative services.

Staff Empowerment: How to recognise and reward employees so they contribute ideas that enhance your service offerings.

Membership Models: How adding a membership fee can add consistent recurring revenue and boost client loyalty.

Creative Cat Care Strategies: How Tania added cat boarding which also paid the rent for much needed new office space

Big Bucks from Small Spaces: How to squeeze as much revenue as you can from your facility, no matter how small.

Comprehensive Client Communication: Enhance customer experience by ensuring every staff member can communicate about each pet’s welfare, every single day.

Why Doing Good is Good Business: How fostering rescue dogs can boost your business’s reputation and client base.

Event Marketing: How to use customer appreciation events to build long lasting connections for your clients, create a buzz about your business, and fuel word of mouth about your amazing service.

What Tania did with her facility is something I work on a lot with my consulting clients, namely how to maximise profits by making best use of your existing facilities and resources,
