People Remember How You Made Them Feel
Read transcript
Imagine you’re looking for a groomer for your dog.
Your dog gets nervous around new people, so you’re looking for someone who will be patient.
You visit one business’s page and see prices and appointment openings.
Then you visit another and see a groomer letting a nervous dog settle in, introducing the team, and explaining what happens during a first visit.
You start to feel more comfortable.
That’s the power of content that helps people feel understood.
I’m Angie Norris, and this is Side Hustle GPS.
Today, we’re stopping in Pet Parkway to explore Pet-Business Content.
Pet owners want to know who will be caring for an animal they love.
A groomer, trainer, pet sitter, or boarding business may provide wonderful service, but their online content might barely show it.
They’re busy doing the work. You could help them tell the story.
You could create posts, short videos, staff introductions, customer stories, or answers to common questions.
Start by asking the business owner what customers want to know.
What happens during a first appointment? What should someone bring? How do you keep owners updated? What do you wish people understood about your service?
Those questions give you useful content ideas.
A pet sitter could share an example of the updates owners receive.
A groomer could walk through the arrival process.
A trainer could explain how a first consultation works.
And a boarding business could introduce the people customers will meet when they drop off their pet.
Small details can make an unfamiliar business feel more approachable.
AI can help turn the owner’s answers into captions, video outlines, and a content calendar.
You can also take one conversation and develop several pieces of content from it.
But use the business’s actual practices, real experiences, and approved photos.
If you’re telling a customer story, get permission. If you’re explaining a service, have the owner check the details.
The content should give people a truthful picture of what they can expect.
And let some personality come through.
The employee who knows every regular dog by name. The friendly greeting at the door. The update that helps an owner relax while they’re away.
Those moments help people connect.
Feeling matters.
Someone might remember a helpful explanation or a warm introduction long after they’ve scrolled past an appointment reminder.
Your first money move?
Choose one local pet business and look at the questions its online content already answers.
Then identify three useful questions it could answer better.
Offer a small starter package: a short interview with the owner, three approved posts, and one simple video outline.
Keep the project clear and manageable. Learn their voice, deliver useful work, and build from there.
So, what could a pet business show that would help an owner feel more comfortable taking the next step?
