398 - Pet Care Staffing Summit Secrets: Smarter Hiring, Stronger Teams, Better Business!

Are you hiring with confidence or just simply hoping for the best? Do you ever worry what would happen if your whole morning crew called in sick? Can you use automation to attract better staff and save your sanity? In this episode, I'm sharing highlights from the first ever Pet Care Staffing Summit - a game-changing event for dog daycare, boarding, grooming, and pet retail businesses that need to build better teams. We hear first from Eve Molzhon who opens up about the chaos that led her to finally bring on a virtual assistant. Next up is Allison Jacobs, who delivers a hard truth about "cool boss" culture. Her advice? If you want to put dogs first, you need to hold people accountable. After that, Joe Latona walks us through the systems behind smart recruiting, revealing how pet care businesses can stand out in a competitive hiring landscape (even when the talent pool is shrinking). I also share a segment from my own Staffing Summit session, where I cover the importance of premium pricing and how your perceived value impacts who wants to work for you. Finally, Josh Hightower rounds out the episode with a sneak peak into his automated hiring funnel masterclass!
