Episode 199: How To Do Virtual Meet and Greets In Your Pet Business

June 18, 2020

How to do Virtual Meet and Greets In Your Pet Business
One of the “blessings” of our new normal under COVID-19 is that it has opened the realm of finding virtual alternatives to our everyday processes. One of these alternatives is virtual consultaations for pet sitters. That’s where you hop on a video call with your potential client and host your meet and greet – virtually!
Nikki & Steph, co-owners of Dog Jogs, have actually transitioned to now conducting ONLY virtual meet and greets, and have a wealth of knowledge to share. Their company truly believes that ‘a tired dog is a happy dog’ and specializes in jogging dogs. They also believe in providing effective, efficient resolutions to customer service issues and ensure complete client satisfaction. Which is what helps them continue to think outside the box, and grow their business by evolving as challenges arise. This year will be Dog Jogs’ 4th year in operation, with many plans for many more to come!
