Did you know that there are some fantastic pet franchise business opportunities that you can operate from a home office, like pet cleaning and grooming, as well as dog training and doggie daycare? Some may contend that pet services fall into the "luxury" category, but historically speaking, consumers have an unconditional love for their pets and do not sacrifice in this area. The pet industry is huge and flourishes during even a bad economy.
The vast majority of pet owners in America consider their four-legged friends as part of the family, just as any person in the household. Many pet owners feed "Max" table scraps and let him sleep in a regular human bed. And no, this love affair does not end with dogs. Cat owners seem to permit unusual pet behavior as well, allowing their felines to jump up onto counters, drink milk from their owner's cereal bowl, and even take a nap on the newspaper currently being read. Some go as far as giving their pets human names. You get the picture.
For every three households in America, one owns a dog. That's an enormous market, with almost 70 million dogs in the United States alone. Americans are spending $41 billion per year on their pets, and that figure is projected to reach $50 billion within the next couple of years. This obsession with pet companionship creates a rapidly expanding business demand that has barely scratched the surface. The number of pet franchises are on a steep upswing, as pet lovers combine their devotion to animals with their desire to be in business for themselves.
When you combine your passion for pets, desire to grow a high-demand business, and strong work ethic, you'll enjoy some key advantages and benefits of a pet franchise:
No prior experience in the pet industry.
Home based with typically low start-up costs.
Very high repeat business.
Exclusive territory with demographic research statistics to refer to.
Recession resistant, as proven above.
Complete training and support provided on all aspects of the business.
Scale the franchise from a single unit to multiple units.
"Feel Good" Business.
Pet franchise owners provide a welcome product/service and do business with happy consumers who love their animals and won't hesitate to splurge on them. At the end of the day, as a franchisee, you'll have a deep satisfaction in knowing that you made a difference to a pet and to their owner. It's most certainly a "feel good" business.
