The concept of our new business came to us this weekend. We went to the county fairgrounds where they were holding the Spokane Kennel Club's dog show. We checked out all the vendors, and sure enough, we found a crying need for our product. Besides dog shows we can set up at agility dog meets, dog events, and Petfest.
We looked at the booths and how they were set up. We will need 2 or 3 tables, a banner, tall poles to hold the banner, a way to showcase our products, business cards, and credit card machine and receipts.
We also need to create a website, displays and flyers. The flyers and/or displays can be put in all veternary clinics, boarding kennels, dog grooming shops and other stores they have anything to do with pets.
Later we would like to place advertisements in dog and pet magazines.
But first the equipment will need to be purchased and training will be involved. I am hoping my father-in-law who is in the business will help us with training.
We will need to come up with a name. We have decided it will be a subsidary of my existing business which I already have a business licence and resellers permit.
So much to do. But we want to do it right this time. This is for our retirement.
