Episode 146: The 15-Minute Fix: Small Moves, Better Business

Running an independent pet store can feel like one giant to-do list. Pricing, inventory, training, merchandising, customer retention — there is always something that needs attention. In this episode, Sherry and Carly talk about why constant discounting is a race to the bottom and why independents have one big advantage: we can move fast. They share simple 15-minute fixes to check margins, clean up inventory, improve add-on sales, train your team, make buying easier for customers, and finally tackle those little problems you keep putting off. You don’t have to fix everything at once. You just have to keep fixing something. Connect with the Pet Shop Girls!
