Summary

In our latest episode of The Daily Groomer, I’m with my good friend Deidra Propst from Pet Spa Crossville about going through a slower season in business and the tough calls that come with it, like downsizing a team. We get into the real side of losing long-time clients, what it looks like to rebrand and bring in new business, and how to stay grounded when things feel uncertain. If you’re a salon owner dealing with similar challenges, this one will hit home.
