Marketing and Design Services

In an unregulated industry such as the pet industry, it is easy for providers who are not properly trained and still using outdated inhumane methods to pose as authorities and sell their services. At the same time, many of the best and most educated providers are not equally skilled at selling and marketing. This leads consumers to make choices that can be harmful to their pets and, by extension, the humans in their lives.

PawsFirst Marketing is committed to helping knowledgeable, modern pet care professionals gain the marketing advantage.

Because of this, PawsFirst Marketing services are specifically designed for professionals who utilize positive reinforcement, force-free and fear-free methods of training and pet care. It is the PawsFirst mission to help them take their business to the next level through proven marketing practices, so pet owners are more aware of the best choices available for their pets
