I'm doing on-line education now and need to start practicing on dogs soon.
(as soon as I have all the equipments that I need)
I think that there will be enough model dogs available in my small town if it's FREE.
I was planning to do this for free while practicing and then when I feel comfortable enough to open my own shop at my home, start charging regular price.
Even for practice, I will be using high quality shampoo.
I live in a small community (country side) and there is no competition.
Lots of people live here for a long long time so the community is pretty close and friendly.
I feel that lots of dog owners will be happy to have a groomer nearby and the word of the mouth will spread pretty fast over here.(if I'm good)
Do you think this is the right way to go or should I charge small fee (10 - 15?)even during my practice? That way, maybe I can attract more potential clients and not just freebees?
Or just do practice for free because it is my practice and no guarantee of the good result?
Thank you for your time!
