The difference between a bad, or even average grooming day and a GREAT grooming day is how you handle the management of your schedule. In this session, Joe will discuss how to lessen no-shows, late clients, and traffic in your lobby. Joe will also address how you can best manage your time, your staff’s time, and your clients’ time. He will focus on the best use of everyone’s time and how grooming businesses can work toward predictability instead of each day being full of surprises that could have been avoided. Would you like to feel a little more in control of your business? Then this seminar is perfect for you.
