DON’T BE JUST A FACE IN THE CROWD E by Nancy Ward e

cDonald’s has its golden arches, Burger King is famous for charbroiled burgers, Cracker Barrel is synonymous with country cooking. Well, you get the idea. So what are you “famous” for? What draws people to your salon? If you can’t answer that question, there’s a BIG problem. If your answer is, “I’m the cheapest,” that’s an even BIGGER problem. Without an answer, you’re just a face in the crowd. Your salon blends right in with all the others in your area. Worse yet, it simply fades into the background. It’s time to get your thinking cap on and discover ways to make your salon stand out from the competition. Sometimes we tend to overlook the basics of good business and spend money unnecessarily on “quick fixes” when our salon isn’t doing as well as
we would like. We often need to take a fresh look at our salon, team members, and procedures. When was the last time you REALLY looked at the outside and entranceway of your salon? This area makes a first impression one way or another, and first impressions are hard to change. Is that area clean, neat, and inviting? This area is a great opportunity to show your nurturing side. You really hadn’t noticed how worn that welcome mat was, had you? How did you miss those cobwebs overhead and that pot of dead mums left from last fall? Make a list of things that are easy fixes—everything from fresh seasonal flowers in pots to new welcome mats and a good cleaning. All you need is a little time and very little money to accomplish this. Drive around to view your competition and decide how your

outside stacks up against theirs. I like to find really pretty storefronts and see what ideas I can implement at my salon. Inside we go. Ask a non-animal friend (I know—I have very few myself) or other small business owner to take a stroll through the salon. Ask them to be honest and give you constructive criticism on ways you can improve. Unfortunately, we don’t always see those pesky little hairballs in the corner or the dust in the retail area. About that funky smell you never noticed—bet they will! Don’t get offended or on the defensive when these things are pointed out. Listen and take notes, then go about making the necessary changes to correct the issues. Often times, nothing more than a good scrubbing and fresh arrangement of the retail area is all that is needed.

Have you ever walked into a store and had your presence ignored? Maybe you’ve needed help in selecting a product only to find the employee knew less than you? Frustrating isn’t it? The salon should always look squeaky clean and smell good. The old saying, “A place for everything and everything in its place”, needs to be adhered to. By the way, when you rearrange the retail area, you’ll sell things simply because people notice them now. I had long awaited taking a trip to a much touted bookstore about an hour away. Yes, I love cats but not cat Halfonpg hair all(7"x4-7/8")-print:Layout the books that I’m trying 1
to look at! No kidding, I was truly disappointed. Beside the cat hair issue, there was a distinct unpleasant smell permeating the entire place. I had overlooked the unkempt outside, after all, it was February. The outside should have been my first clue. Will I go back? No, there are a couple of nice, clean, and well-organized stores I’ll continue to use. One of those stores is an hour 4/18/14 11:40Have AM your Pagepotential 1 and a half away.
clients done the same thing? Have you ever walked into a store and had your presence ignored? Maybe you’ve needed help in selecting a product only to find the employee knew less than you? Frustrating isn’t it? Think about it. Does that ever happen in your salon? Are you and your team members knowledgeable about the products you use and sell? Is everyone on the same page when it comes to recommending products or food? I’ve been in salons that had not a clue as to what was best to use. I was doing a private consultation once when a grooming client asked the salon owner which shampoo would be best for her dog’s skin problems. The salon owner quickly selected a shampoo (which I knew was totally the wrong product), and the sale was completed. When I asked the owner why she chose that particular shampoo, she
“We can get big Newfoundland dogs on them and the tables are rock solid.” “I’ve had my Groomer’s Best table for a li�le over a year and I just love it! It’s really helpful because the table goes low so when you’re grooming big dogs they can step right on, and they go up really high, so any size dog you groom you can adjust accordingly. I’m tall so it really saves on my back because I’m not having to lean over or strain to pick up big dogs. And the table is so sturdy and we can get big Newfoundland dogs on them and the tables are rock solid. Plus there’s a scissor hole in the table which is great so if you have to step away from the table you don’t have to worry about the scissors falling off the table. I would highly recommend Groomer’s Best for anyone looking for a top quality hydraulic table.” Lindsey Dicken - 2014 Groomer of the Year Fetching Canine Grooming and Bou�que, Longwood, FL Lindsey Dicken 2014 Groomer of the Year

replied, “Oh, I’ve had that stuff forever, and I’m trying to get rid of it.” And she wondered why her salon wasn’t doing well. Go figure! Take time to learn about the products you carry and have training sessions with the whole team. My team always listens better when food is involved (just saying). Customer service is one place your salon really needs to shine. Every client should feel like they matter to you. We send get well, birthday, encouragement, and sympathy cards to our clients when the situation calls for it. Alerting your clients to changes in growths, moles, skin, teeth, or eyes not only benefits the pets but builds trust and loyalty with the client. Your client should feel like the only reason you came to work today was to take care of their fur-baby. Keeping up on current trends and styles is vital. Attending trade shows,
seminars, and breed shows is so important. By attending these events, you stay on the cutting edge and are able to deliver innovative grooming and outstanding products to your clients. The knowledge gained is worth the cost of attending. You can always find ways to strengthen your market niche at the shows. What’s that you say? You have no niche? Oh, but you should. Catering to the older dogs, cage-free grooming, creative styling, coloring, etc. are all niches within the industry. Our niche is being a holistic salon that uses only organic or natural skin and coat products with a two hour or less turnaround time. We use unique accessories rather than just bandanas. Don’t get offended if you use only bandanas and regular bows. Remember, we’re talking about ways to separate yourself from the competition. Community service is another

area to let your light shine. Donating time, talent, and products to local shelters are just a few of the ways you can give back to your community. Partner with a shelter for an adoption day, do a food drive, or feature a pet a week on your Facebook page or website. All these will build your presence in the community and help the pets. A really clean, well-organized, smoothly operating salon staffed by caring, knowledgeable team members that offer innovative grooming in a quiet atmosphere is sure to be noticed. All that leads to a loyal customer base willing to drive to your salon, which works together to create a salon that stands head and shoulders above the competition—certainly not just a face in the crowd!

RESCUE ROYALTY E by Kelly Kaspar e
P
et overpopulation in the United States is a serious problem. I recently had the opportunity to talk about that with Lorenzo Borghese, founder of Animal Aid USA and founder and president of Royal Pet Club. He is also an Italian Prince who was featured on the ninth season of The Bachelor. Every month, Animal Aid transports approximately 150 pets from rural southern shelters to New Jersey, where they are adopted into their forever homes through a network of no
26

kill shelters. This wouldn’t be possible without the assistance of numerous volunteers. According to Lorenzo, “Animal Aid USA (www.AnimalAidUSA.org) also lobbies for puppy mill legislations, ending gas chambers and intra-cardiac injection without anesthesia, and also works with numerous veterinarians to provide funds for low cost spay/neuter programs in low
income areas.” I asked Lorenzo what groomers can do to help homeless pets. Donations of time are always needed. To get involved directly with Animal Aid, groomers can sign up on the website and join one of the monthly caravans. Vehicles are driven from southern New Jersey to Blackshear, GA, where dog food and other supplies are dropped
off. Photos are taken of the animals in need, and they are loaded onto the caravan to head to New Jersey. The animals are bathed and groomed before adoptions and there is always a need for groomers to assist with this. Royal Pet Club shampoos are donated, and the animals are made beautiful to give them a leg up in finding a new home. If you can’t make a caravan, a monetary donation will always be put to good use. Also, groomers, like veterinarians, are very influential in the process of picking a new pet. “Stress to your clients to adopt. Even if you aren’t able to join Animal Aid USA, donate your time to a local rescue or one of the many other caravans across the country. The more attractive the dog, the better his/her chances are of being adopted”, stated Borghese. When asked what groomers can do to make rescue more effective, Lorenzo informed me that, “More volunteers means more dogs saved. Networking via the internet is a powerful resource for rescue. If 150 dogs can be rescued from one area in one month, imagine if that happened all over the US. The impact would be phenomenal!” Finally, I asked what Lorenzo believes is the future of rescue. He is extremely optimistic that the US will be a leader in pet rescue, and other countries will follow. Once we take care of the problem here, we can move on to other countries and help them establish the same precedents taken here. “I am optimistic that eventually within the next decade the US will be a no kill nation”, concludes Lorenzo.
