Opening a pet store need to pay attention to:
1, site selection ?
We do not care what industry, site selection is the most important. Do not believe that the wine is not afraid of the deep alley. The same wine, you sell inside the alley, and I sell at the intersection of the alley, that is absolutely two concepts. Pet stores are the same. Choosing a right address is especially critical. So how do we choose a site? First of all, we have to do a market study, many students in the school to learn before the address has been selected. After learning to go back to open the store, but then changed the place. Because after studying for a period of time, he learned about the pet grooming industry, and found that the choice of location is not what he thought at the beginning.
We opened a pet store, the best address is not the downtown expensive rent of the store room. The city's most prime streets and so on. These places are good, but there are also a lot of problems, the first problem is that the rent is too expensive, of course, the rent is not the most critical problem. 90% of these places, there is no parking space, the customers bring their pets to the store and its inconvenience. We do the pet industry, in fact, to put it bluntly, is the service industry, the real service is not only pets, and pet owners. If we choose the store near the park where we often walk our dogs, there is a spacious parking space in front of the store, and the owner's rest area provides free coffee, drinks, desserts and so on. What a sight it would be! In fact, let the owner comfortable, you are also comfortable.
2, decoration ?
We need to determine a main color when decorating, if the overall color of the store is very beautiful, it is easy to attract customers near the store to watch. On the contrary, the store decoration is bland, color is too simple, it is very attractive to customers. In most cases, it is recommended that the pet store all day color tone using some warm colors, so as to give people a warm feeling. At the same time pets can also feel a sense of home.
If the space in the store allows, it is recommended that you make a special arrangement for a rest area for guests. This is because there are times when the store is busy and there will be customers waiting. If you can set up a rest area can be a good solution to this problem, but also allows customers to feel the pet store to bring them the most thoughtful and caring service.
3, technology ?
Pet beauty technology is our most basic guarantee, a pet store business is good, and the pet beautician's technology has a close relationship, if you can do 80% of the customers leave the store, can take the initiative to do publicity for you. Then you will save tens of thousands of dollars in promotion costs, and the store will become more and more prosperous.
We all know that nowadays, the high-rise buildings are full of people and people's communication is gradually reduced, but the pet has become a link between people and people's communication, we often see a group of dogs in the neighborhood to play together, the owner of the dog around the side of the dog to talk to each other. Which if one of the owners say you do well. Then you still worry that they do not come to your store? Humans have inertia, when they go smoothly, basically you this VIP card is also issued.
4, publicity and activities ?
Our customer base needs to be maintained, we must often do some small activities, small concessions to stimulate customer spending.
