In order to keep things interesting, and bring in clients that you may not have the chance to meet otherwise, consider holding special events within your studio. On a regular rotation (once a month, or once every two months), invite anyone interested to the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Open house: A chance to showcase your dog grooming studio and meet potential new clients (dogs included!). Have some refreshments and marketing collateral on hand to share with visitors, as well as an elevator speech which outlines your dog grooming background and the services you can offer clients as a groomer.<\/li>\n<li>Seminars: As a certified dog groomer, you likely have some knowledgeable industry connections. Consider hiring experts to host helpful seminars in your studio for pet owners on topics such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.doggroomingcourse.com\/2017\/01\/9-items-need-pet-first-aid-kit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> first aid<\/a>, bathing, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.doggroomingcourse.com\/2017\/02\/doggie-dental-care-know\/\" target=\"\" rel=\"noopener\"> dental care<\/a>, and how to care for older dogs. These seminars can be informal ways of teaching dog owners best practices, and are a wonderful opportunity to welcome potential new grooming clients into your studio. As the business owner, you can choose how much you want to charge for these seminars, but a lower fee can result in higher attendance and more clients for you as a groomer!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_content&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;2%&#8221; bottom_padding=&#8221;2%&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243;][vc_column enable_animation=&#8221;true&#8221; animation=&#8221;fade-in&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; delay=&#8221;250&#8243;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;5936&#8243; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; animation=&#8221;Fade In&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; delay=&#8221;250&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_content&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;2%&#8221; bottom_padding=&#8221;2%&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243;][vc_column enable_animation=&#8221;true&#8221; animation=&#8221;fade-in&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; delay=&#8221;250&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<ul>\n<li>Dog walks: During warm seasons, invite both your grooming clients as well as all local pet owners to join you on a dog walk! This will allow the dogs to get some exercise, and will be an opportunity for you to chat with your clients and potential clients while walking around the neighborhood. End the dog walk at your business location and offer refreshments, which will allow you to provide information to new guests about the services you offer as a groomer!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Make good use of your website, social media channels, and print mediums such as newspapers and magazines to advertise these events. Encourage your current clients to tell their friends about them, as well!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Social_media\"><\/span>Social media<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As a business owner, you know the impact of a great social media presence! Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest are excellent channels to share information about the services you offer, photos of your furry clients (and work), and encourage reviews from happy customers.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to creativity, Instagram was designed as a means of visual expression! Use this social media channel to showcase your grooming work, sharing photos (with permission, of course) of your clients, events you\u2019ve held at your studio, and even reposting photos of your clients at home (shared from their Instagram feed). Be sure to encourage your clients to follow you on Instagram by placing it on all your business cards and on your website, and follow clients as well. This will build a highly creative community for you in which you can showcase your work, attract potential new clients, and have fun!<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Contests_and_giveaways\"><\/span>Contests and giveaways<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One sure-fire way to keep your clients engaged with your services and promote your dog grooming business is to hold regular contests and giveaways.
