Episode 424: The Biggest Breakthroughs from the 2025 Doggy Daycare Business Bootcamp- Pricing Wins, Positioning & Profit Power Plays


Listen Later

Ever wondered what breakthroughs are possible when you step away from the business and into a room full of people who "get it"?

And what did a room full of those ambitious pet pros learn that helped them raise prices, specialise, and start leading their clients (instead of being led by them)?

Did you see we missed last week's episode and wonder if I had finally taken a day off?, Well, fear ye not because in this episode, I return after a non-stop US trip to share what went down at my latest business bootcamp. After a marathon week in Maryland and Washington — including masterminding with Vance Morris, a tailgate party, a rare Baltimore Ravens win, a packed two-day event, and a mastermind of my own — I break down the biggest lessons and the biggest owner breakthroughs captured after just the first day.

You'll hear insights from the owners, managers, and action-takers who attended the doggy daycare business bootcamp and discovered why raising prices is non-negotiable, why the best clients want to be guided, and how pre-pay models, memberships, retainers, and niche positioning can create instant clarity and better cashflow in their businesses. Basically, if you weren't there – first of all, take a long look in the mirror – but second of all… here's what you missed out on.

In this episode, you'll discover:

  • Why Leadership Matters — The fastest-growing businesses are run by owners who direct the journey, not react to it.
  • Premium Pricing Power — Bootcamp attendees share how increasing rates unlocked new investment and higher-quality clients.
  • Know Your Best Clients — How identifying your highest-value customers gives you clarity on who to serve and what to sell.
  • Memberships & Retainers — Why predictable income beats panic-filled month-ends every time.
  • Work On Your Business — The breakthrough that happens when owners step back from the day-to-day and build systems instead.
