Common Barn Groomers Lichfield & Tamworth dog groomers that want to work with owners to give them what they would like. Putting a high priority on animal welfare.

First and foremost I am a lover of animals and believe their needs and happiness are just as important as our own. The founding principle of my salon are the five welfare needs of all animals. These are:
Freedom from fear & stress. Freedom from pain, injury & disease. Freedom from hunger & thirst. Freedom from discomfort. Freedom to express normal behaviour. My philosophy in life is that you should treat people as you expect to be treated yourself. I believe if you act with integrity, fairness and loyalty and are reliable and consistent in these traits you will be a happier person. So this is the approach I take with all of my clients and their pets. I doesn't cost to be nice or to treat people and animals with respect.

It must be that time of year againโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‚

โ€‹If your morning latte isn't quite hitting your pumpkin spice fix, we can sort your dog out with Peanut & Pickleโ€™s seasonal Pumpkin Spice shampoo.

โ€‹Anyone who knows me knows Iโ€™m not usually one for fancy scentsโ€”results come first, and finding products that actually lather and rinse properly in our local water is half the battle. Peanut & Pickle just seem to suit our water better than anything else weโ€™ve tried.

โ€‹Along with the autumn scent, their โ€˜Shed Itโ€™ shampoo is our absolute salon staple right now. It does wonders for shifting compacted undercoat on double coats and works brilliantly on wire coats without leaving them soft or limp.

โ€‹Whether your dog needs the autumn seasonal treat or a proper de-shedding session, weโ€™ve got them covered.

Back in May, I made the tough decision to leave one booking system for a cheaper software provider to try and save on my monthly overheads. It seemed like a smart financial move at the time. Fast forward to this week, and I have just finished migrating my entire business back to MoeGo.

Here is what I learned the hard way: cheaper software is only cheaper until it stops working. During my four months away, my "savings" were completely wiped out by the sheer amount of admin time I lost. Here is what I was dealing with:

๐—ข๐—ป๐—น๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ฒ ๐—•๐—ผ๐—ผ๐—ธ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ก๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€: Clients consistently struggled to book appointments online.

We then had to waste time contacting them to find out which slot they actually wanted. In the meantime, those unwanted appointments blocked our calendar, meaning those slots were completely unavailable to other clients.

๐—ฉ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐——๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฎ: System instability meant that saved prices were just disappearing from customer records.

๐—•๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐—”๐˜‚๐˜๐—ผ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€: Automated messages simply stopped sending to clients or they got the same one repeatedly.

The stress of fighting with broken tech took my focus completely away from grooming and my business. Moving back to MoeGo has been an absolute breath of fresh air, and I have to say, the support I have received from the MoeGo team while moving everything back has been exceptional. They made a highly stressful situation so much easier. After my initial onboarding, I had to contact MoeGo for support a handful of times, whereas the one I just left seemed to be weekly, with daily issues in the salon.

Having a stable, reliable system that actually works in the background is worth its weight in gold. If you are looking for grooming software, I have looked at a fair few now, that actually supports your business instead of fighting against it, I cannot recommend them enough.

Don't make the same mistake I didโ€”buy cheap, buy twice! ๐Ÿพโœ‚๏ธ

I am honestly not sharing this just to push a referral codeโ€”my main goal is to save other business owners from the massive headache I just went through.
