Dog grooming services

Someone described their business in a sentence. This is what came back — specific moves, priced per month, with the sums written out.

What we took you to be

dog grooming services — for dog owners in Portland.

Your numbers as we read them: ~$4,125/mo from 55 appointments at $75 each, assuming all appointments are for the same service and price, with no additional revenue streams

Wrong about something? Add the correction to your description and run it again — the estimates move with it.

01PricingWorth the week · an hour

Raise price to $90 for new appointments

≈ $825–1,650/mo55 new appointments/6 months × $15 price increase × 1-3 months to fill existing client pipeline

Why now: Fully booked schedule means demand is high, allowing for price increase

Introduce a new pricing tier for new appointments at $90, while grandfathering existing clients at $75 for 6 months. Monitor demand and adjust pricing accordingly.

Do this first

Review appointment schedule for the next 6 months to determine number of new appointments

02What you sellTest it small · a day

Offer add-on services for $20

≈ $550–1,100/mo55 appointments/mo × 10-20% take rate × $20/add-on service

Why now: Existing clients are already loyal, making it easier to sell additional services

Introduce add-on services such as nail trimming, teeth brushing, or de-shedding, priced at $20 each. Train staff to upsell these services to existing clients.

Do this first

Research popular add-on services in the dog grooming industry and create a list of potential options

03Cutting costDo it · a week

Reduce rent by $400/mo

≈ $400/mo$400/mo reduction in rent, assuming no change in appointment volume or pricing

Why now: High rent is eating into profit margin, making it essential to renegotiate or explore alternative options

Do this first

Review current lease agreement and contact landlord to discuss potential rent reduction

The rest of it

There were 7 more. And the letter that collects on them.

The full audit is ten moves, not 3 — ordered into a 90-day sequence so you know what to do first. It also includes the two things that turn a decision into money actually collected: a price-increase letter written in your voice, ready to send, and the replies to the four objections you will get back within the week.

  • All ten moves, each priced per month with the arithmetic shown
  • A 90-day sequence — which to do first, and why that order
  • The price-increase letter, ready to send
  • Four objections and how to answer without dropping the price
One payment. Delivered on the next screen.
