You don’t have to be a pet expert to purchase a Petland
franchise. You might not know a cockatoo from a macaw; and
maybe the only amphibian you’ve handled was the frog
in your backyard, but that’s okay. Petland prides itself
on the best training programs in the industry for you and
your staff. If you love animals, have a desire to succeed,
are capable of learning the Petland system, and are committed
to building a team of Pet Counselors and Animal Care Technicians
to help you carry out your business plan, you will be a successful
franchise owner.
Petland provides you with a 6 week-long training program.
You’ll spend 2 weeks in the classroom, and 1 week in
a training store, plus 3 weeks in your new store with a Petland
trainer.
You’ll learn the business of operating a Petland store:
financial management, supervision of personnel, animal care
techniques, inventory management, merchandising, community
relations, and marketing programs. Petland will also provide
you with comprehensive operations manuals and videos for reference,
and to assist you in the ongoing training of your personnel.
And throughout the year, Petland offers quarterly training
programs for you and your key managers.
These programs focus on animal care, sales management, fish
department development, community service, marketing and cost
control. What’s more, quarterly Merchandising and Marketing
Planners will keep you current on pet product developments,
distribution specials and promotional campaigns. |
