Are you uncertain about whether you’re charging the right price for your pet services? Do you ever feel like you might be undervaluing your hard work and leaving money on the table? If the thought of pricing your pet services makes you anxious or if you find yourself second-guessing your current rates, you’re in good company! In this episode, I’m addressing two questions from fellow pet business owners who reached out to me for guidance.
