On this episode, I’m talking with Kerrie Fitzgerald of Ecommerce Society. I’ve known Kerrie for years and I love a chance to get on the line with her and talk about digital marketing.
Today’s conversation is full of actionable advice. Kerrie explains the five emails that you need to send to new subscribers when they join your email list.
These five emails are written in advance and scheduled as part of an automated email welcome sequence. In my pet business, I use ConvertKit to manage my email marketing, including my email welcome sequence.
What I love about Kerrie’s strategy that I’m about to share is that she explains the reason behind all five emails. And overall, they’re designed to make sales.
Your welcome sequence is when new subscribers are the MOST interested in you and your business. So you need to take advantage of that and make it easy for them to get what they came to you for.
This episode is part of my Q2 Email Marketing theme. Stay tuned for more expert interviews with actionable advice and solo episodes that will help you reach more pet lovers who need you in their lives!

In this episode, I’m bringing back one of my favorite guests, Julie Swan. She’s the founder of the Dog Breeder Society and she runs a successful business breeding German Shorthaired Pointers and Rat Terriers.
But don’t tune out if you’re not a dog breeder! This conversation is full of financial tips that apply to any type of pet business. You’ll learn about the numbers you need to know in order to set your pricing, plus the one number that really doesn’t matter at all! Julie also gives us actionable steps to be more confident about our pricing.
I also loved hearing Julie’s insight on pricing gaps. You know when you see someone who has a product for $5 and another for $500 with nothing in between. That’s a pricing gap and you want to avoid having that in your business. It makes customers doubtful of the value of both the cheaper item and the expensive item.
If you want to hear more of my insights into how I would implement Julie’s advice from this conversation, there’s an exclusive bonus episode for Wear Wag Repeat Society members. This year I’m releasing a new bonus episode every month with real examples of how I would implement each expert podcast guests’ advice. A lot of the time I’m walking the walk with this advice in my own business, so if you’re curious and want that extra insight, get on the waitlist for Wear Wag Repeat Society. Membership opens for about a week at the start of each quarter - so the next chance to join is early April.
But today, here on this episode, we still have tons of valuable and actionable advice for you. Let’s dive right into the interview with Julie Swan.
If you like what you hear, remember to leave a review in your podcast app or share the episode on social media tagging me @wearwagrepeat.

Lastly, she provides expert guidance on how to protect your finances as a business owner and whether or not you should consider forming an LLC to do so.

In this episode, I have the pleasure of getting to know pet author and certified animal behavior consultant Amy Shojai. We get started with Amy’s story of how she got inspired to get into writing about pets while working in a small vet clinic in Eastern Kentucky.
At the clinic, she witnessed first hand the wide variety of treatments and pets and need to convey important information to pet parents in a way that they could easily understand. That experience got her started writing about pets for publications like Cat Fancy and Dog Fancy. She developed a signature writing style for articles that started with a story about a pet, transitioned into the featured medical information and wrapped up with an update on how the pet is doing after treatment. That structure of leading with a strong hook followed by education got people’s interest, especially when there was a happy ending to share!
Amy and I also talk about why we love to read fiction written by dog experts. Amy admits that she has thrown books across the room when the author clearly doesn't know a thing about dogs and writes unrealistic or dangerous stories about them! Same, girl! If you dream of writing about pets, or if you just want to promote your pet business through really great stories, you will enjoy this interview!

This episode is all about my favorite theme… collaboration! In talking with Natalie Asaro of Petcurean Pet Nutrition, it was awesome to learn how their team works together with others in the pet food industry.
We talked about some of the trends in the pet food industry as pet parents are getting more involved and invested in the ingredients they feed their dogs. Petcurean is leading the way with research into sustainable ingredients like black soldier fly larvae. I also enjoyed learning about how they’re making nutrition accessible to all pet parents with three different brands at three different price points. It’s interesting to think about how all of us could offer something like this in our pet brands.
Another lesson we can all learn from this conversation with Natalie is about providing honest and thorough customer service. The pet nutritionist team at Petcuriean is available to share food advice with pet parents, and they might even recommend a different brand if nothing they carry is the right fit for the pet. I love how transparent that is! It shows how everyone on the team really cares the most about pet health. At the end of the day, it’s all about healthy pets!
