Default and let me tell you why....

...I didn't do that.

Other online pet boutique owners can benefit from the same information.

This is business folks. And there are 22.1 MILLION websites that sell dog products. That's a whole lot of doggie toys, mind you.

Luxury dog products is a niche industry. Now, while the industry is at $34 BILLION, expect to double in 5 years to a whopping $68B; designers can barely keep up with demand as it is.

Did you know that the likelihood for a first time business owner to succeed within the first year is only 34% (offline)? Anyone can create a website and sell products. It takes a BUSINESS owner to make it work.

There are two different types of female business owners:

1. straight forward, direct and to the point business - no gossip, no chit chat, no nonsense. just business and relationship building

2. gossip, rumors, sensitive, somewhat jealous business women who do know a great deal about business; but rely on gossip to meander their selves through the industry (mind you, they won't last in business)

Owning a company is long hours, little pay (in the beginning), overnighters, putting your company ahead of everything else so you can focus on creating independency, financial security and more time with family. But, let's face it...it takes a lot of hard work, hours, blood, sweat and tears in the beginning.

I have a great deal of respect for all business owners as much as I do for customers.

But, I gotta tell you - some of you think I am sitting here on my laptop going from site to site (mind you, I don't have the time to do such a thing) and criticizing websites for the fun of it. Not true.

I am hoping that the operators pay attention to what I am saying for my advice turns companies into profit building entities - the intention of every business owner I know!

I think this forum is great because we can share our experiences. I am sure you were only being helpful to offer her advice but the advice would have been much better received if sent through a PM or an email.
