Christmas is right around the corner and this is such an exciting time for you and your pet business.

People love spending money on pets during the holidays, whether it’s treating their furry family members to new toys, tasty treats, fun accessories, and more.

If you provide a service, you’ll likely be in high demand as a pet sitter, groomer, or trainer helping pets be on their best behaviour when visitors call round.

So it’s vital for pet parents get to see you and for you to showcase how your products or services can enhance their holiday season.

And the sooner you spread the holiday cheer, the more sales and bookings you’re likely to make.

In this podcast, I’m sharing tips from my new Christmas Content Cracked guide, packed with social media ideas, campaign plans and more to help you connect with pet parents this holiday season.
