Don't buy an expensive Van or an over engineered trailer that is so expensive that it drains your business's Cash Flow.
Would you rather groom 5 dogs per month to make a trailer payment or 36 (or more) to pay for a fancy van before you earn $1 for yourself?
Imagine Yourself:
Earning a real living wage and helping your family earn more than the average US family
You can when you become a Mobile Groomer!
The $57 Billion Pet Industry is growing and services have been growing over 7% per year.* This has all happened in this troubling economy. Good times or bad times it doesn't matter. Pet owners in the US continue to spend on their pets even when they sacrifice on themselves.
* According to Packaged Facts 201-2012 Pet Market Outlook Report
Another fact is that money people spend on grooming their pets is projected to grow, on average, by over 8% a year for the next 5 years!*
* According to Sundale Research 2011
Mobile Pet Groomers average $61 per groom*
If you groom 7 Dogs per day over 5 Days per week (an average amount of business) you will gross over $100,000.
Groomers on either coast average over $70 (a mid to high price) and can gross well over $100,000.
Even charging as little as $35-$40 (the very low end of pricing) per groom in challenging economic times can earn you well over $4,000 per month with mobile grooming.
Over 80% of mobile groomers are still in business after 3 years.
*According to the US Grooming Price Survey 2009 - Mobile Groomers by PetGroomer.com - PetGroomer Survey
Mobile Grooming is the most affordable way to get into a real business with the lowest overhead. If you are stuck with a large van payment your labor from the first 25 to 30 dogs goes to making your payment. With an affordable trailer much, much more of your earnings drop straight into your pocket. (most Gryphon owners have paid themselves back for their trailer costs within the first year)

From a recent customer:
"I currently have been in business since September of 2007 and have your competitor's bus. Quite frankly the ridiculous overhead and issues I've had with it have led me to researching truck & trailer options for the past year. Now I'm ready to make the change. From what I'm seeing the truck & trailer are much more reasonable on all fronts; price, gas, insurance, maintenance, etc. I spent $90,000 for my rig and could have acquired at least 2 trucks & 2 trailers for the same price."

Why we don't recommend Inverters and rechargeable batteries:
WARNING: WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DEATH, INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR PROPERTY LOSS. THIS IS FOR INFORMATIONAL USES ONLY.
One major downside to having an inverter is having to charge the batteries. Many people do not understand the basics of charging the batteries. If you have a multiple battery charger you can do a bank at a time or if you have a small charger you can do one at a time. A typical battery like a Group 31 is a lead acid battery. This means the battery has lead plates inside and there is a sulfuric acid and distilled water mix acting as an electrolyte. These batteries can be very dangerous if not cared for properly and treated with respect. Lead acid batteries have remained almost unchanged in technology since W.W.II.
Rule # 1 never smoke near charging batteries. When batteries are charging they release HYDROGEN gas. Hydrogen gas is very explosive and should be treated with respect.
Rule # 2 leave your battery compartment cracked, vented or open when charging. Even though the amount of hydrogen gas released is in small amounts when charging in a sealed space this could trap this gas inside and be even more dangerous.
Rule # 3 disconnect your ground before charging the system. This can help prevent you from accidentally shorting out a battery post.
One thing to remember is charge slow or trickle charge. Make sure you have the time to charge slowly, always plan ahead. When you charge your batteries it can cause the solution in the battery to boil if charged to fast. Basically when batteries are charged too fast you can end up drying out the cells inside causing the battery to fail or not work as well.
Always wear safety glasses when working with batteries. Always wear rubber gloves when handling batteries. Keep a box of baking soda around to put on acid spills. Baking soda will help neutralize the acid of you spill any.
Distilled water can be added to each cell of the battery usually through service holes on the top. The solution can be tested with a hydrometer that is used to test the pH of the solution inside the battery. This tool will tell you if you need more distilled water or sulfuric acid.
A trickle charge tends to last much longer than a fast charge also. Also it is better to run your batteries down a good amount on the charge then make sure you charge them all the way on trickle. That will save battery life and battery memory. Battery memory is how long a battery will hold a charge.

A Little On The Pet Industry:
‘For the Dogs’ Has a Whole New Meaning
Americans spent a record $55 billion on their pets, according to the market research firm Packaged Facts, more than the gross domestic product of Belarus.
THE pet industry has long considered itself recession-resilient, and it proved just that during the recent downturn, despite some bumps along the way and analysts say the pet industry will continue to rebound.
“Our perspective is that, thankfully, we are in a pretty emotional category,”
ABOUT 62 percent of American households have a pet, with dogs accounting for 40 percent of the total.
Happiness is a warm dog (or cat), experts say
Medical researchers and psychologists recommend adopting a companion animal. The ability to express one's feelings of caring, such as for a pet, creates a sense of lightness in a person. Pets are credited not only for dispelling loneliness, but also for lifting their owners out of the blues.
An Australian study discovered that those who owned an animal had lower blood pressure and lower levels of cholesterol and triglycerides, as well as a reduced likelihood of developing heart disease than those who did not have a pet. In addition, the study observed that these risks were still lower despite the pet owners' consumption of above average amounts of meat and fast food.
Another study of heart attack victims in the US noted those who were pet owners usually survived another year longer than those who did not own an animal.
