Planning Your Next Level

You started in your garage. You built a client base. You raised your prices. Now what?

Options:

• Stay solo, charge premium — $80,000-$120,000. Low overhead, total control.
• Build a team — Revenue $200,000-$500,000+
• Multiple locations — Systemize, replicate, manage from above
• Go mobile — Add vans with hired groomers
• Teach — Create courses, mentor, build a brand beyond your hands on dogs

Whatever you choose: keep learning, keep raising prices, keep investing in systems, and keep caring about every dog that comes through your door. The best groomers never stopped caring — and got paid well for it.
