Ryan's Pet Supplies Pet Tips
There are many reasons for budding and seasoned groomers alike to attend Groomer Trade Shows. Organizations like Barkleigh and World Pet Association put on a variety of groomer-specific trade shows that occur in locations all over America such as Groom Expo (in Hershey, PA), Groom Expo West (in Pasadena, CA), Super Zoo (in Las Vegas, NV). Let us walk you through our Top 5 Reasons for attending Groomer Trade Shows.
America?s second longest continuously running sporting event and second only to the very prestigious Kentucky Derby is none other than the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. For those who have never been, or those that have never heard of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show, it typically happens in very cold February in New York City with the judging of the breeds happening at Piers 92/93. The group judging groups are the ?finals?, and Best in Show, which is the crowning winner, happens at the historic Madison Square Garden.
The way you present yourself IS your brand. Not only through videos or photos on social media, but in the salon too! We all want to make money doing what we love. But, more importantly, to get there, we need our clients to
see the value and quality in their grooming experience with us as groomers as well.
Heal what ails your furry friend by choosing a medicated shampoo! Medicated dog shampoos can be used to treat all kinds of conditions, from dermatitis, to yeast, to everything in between. At Ryan?s Pet Supplies, we carry a variety of products that you can use to keep your dogs happy, healthy, and looking their best.
Do you know what the four main types of brushes are? What makes one type of brush different from the other can be confusing, especially when brushes of the same type can vary so much in size, shape and color.
As a professional pet groomer, I was not born knowing how to market myself to clients. I would wage that most groomers did not inherently have this knowledge, either. These few tips have tremendously helped me find my own personal identity and create a well-defined brand, as well as appeal to my ?ideal? client. This has created wonderful boundaries for me professionally and has helped to prevent burn-out.
After working many years in retail, I simply became bored of how redundant the days became and how corporate upper management treated hard working individuals. I was working at a High-End store on 5th Avenue (New York City) a job I DREAMED of; and I honestly worked for a woman who was so degrading, but people tolerated her because of how much status she had within the company. It was the worst job of my life. I knew I needed a change. I quit and took a few months to regroup.
It?s about to be springtime and you know what that means: Flea & Tick season. There are several pests that pose a threat to our pet buddies but the worst of them can be treated with simple topical treatments or pest collars. At Ryan?s Pet Supplies, we carry a variety of products that you can use to keep your pets pest free!
As we scroll through Instagram, we see all these beautiful groomers displaying their magic. I used to hesitate posting my personal grooming pictures because I felt like they weren?t good enough in comparison. (If you feel this way keep reading!)
While you?re here and I have your attention, I wanted to talk about all things aesthetic, style, beauty and yes *vibes* (side note - I love that word so much, I don?t even care how overused it is). Recently you may have seen that I was generously awarded the ?Aesthetic as Fluff? award from the lovely Britt Johnson. Things like online style is something that Britt and I have talked about quite a lot over the years. To some, online ?vibes? may not be a priority, they just enjoy posting photos and videos and I?m here to say that is 100% cool. This is not a place of judgement; this is a place to uplift and to celebrate individuality.
