When Kim Wilson went from groomer to basically managing the small grooming service she worked at, she watched both the business and the profits grow.
Wilson decided she wanted to open her own grooming service and then the economy tanked. So she adjusted her dream, and taking a page from the TV show "Groomer Has It," she decided to open a mobile service.
"In the TV show, they give away a van like this, so I even went to Wagon Tails in Granger, Ind., which they use in the TV show, to oversee the conversion," Wilson said. "No one has a service like this in Northwest Indiana. At first, startup costs were more for buying a van than it would be to lease a storefront. But after you consider overhead, in the long run, this is a lot cheaper."
