Teeth Cleaning as an add on service
I speak to a lot of pet groomers who say to me they cant physically do any more dogs in a day and they still need / want to make more money. Well they can put their prices up but also look at adding on a valuable service!
Teeth Cleaning can help your business in so many ways. It is a great service to offer your customer and look after their dog. It adds money to your business for not a lot of extra work.
So I speak to Anastasia Waugh The Dog Tooth Fairy all about the Emmi Pet teeth cleaning system. This was recorded in July and talks about an offer however that expires in July.
You can find out more and get in touch with Anastasia on Facebook. Search The Dog Tooth Fairy.

How to make your money work harder with Alex Seery.
The purpose of business is to make money. So once we make our money what do we do with it? I became frustrated with having some savings sitting around doing nothing. I decided to go out and get some education around investing that money in the markets. So far so good our money is invested and we are making a good return.
Alex Seery is an Entrepreneur, best selling author and invests his money in the markets too. He has also put together a training course to help others do it.
We all work hard so I thought it would be good for you to hear about how to make your money work harder.
Once you have listened to the episode please check the link if you would like to sign up to the course. Hope to see you in there!
