​🚐 The Mobile Grooming Summit – Start Series (Free Webinar Series)

​Salon & Mobile: What It Takes to Build Beyond One Model

​Part I of the Start Series

​Presented by The Daily Groomer and Wag’n Tails

​Thinking about going mobile — or already running your first van — and wondering what the bigger picture looks like?

​In this first session of the Start Track, we’re sitting down with an operator who’s built both a mobile and salon business to break down what it actually takes to grow in this industry.

​No theory. No fluff. Just a real conversation about what works, what doesn’t, and how to think about your next step.

​💬 What You’ll Learn

​Elizabeth will share what it’s really like to operate across both mobile and salon — and what that means if you're early in your journey.

​We’ll cover:

• ​The real differences between mobile grooming and salon ownership

• ​Why many groomers are choosing mobile — and when a salon still makes sense

• ​What to think about before you commit to your first van

• ​The early-stage realities of running a mobile grooming business

• ​How to approach growth without overcomplicating things too early

• ​Lessons learned from building both sides of the business

• ​…plus YOUR questions, answered live and unfiltered
