In this week’s Hot Take Friday episode, I’m sharing the single most powerful marketing strategy I’d focus on if I were growing my pet care business again. Spoiler alert: it’s not another social media trend. It’s about going deep, not wide, building real relationships in your community that create lasting brand trust.

I walk through how to make your brand known in your area, how to connect your personal and business identities in a way that earns loyalty, and why the human side of your company is about to become your biggest competitive edge in an AI-saturated world.

✨ Key Takeaways

• Trust is the foundation of every effective sales strategy

• Relationship-driven marketing always outperforms quick hacks

• Local brand associations build long-term awareness and referrals

• Your personal brand can amplify your business brand

• The “human” element will set pet care businesses apart in the AI era

💡 Final Thought:

Scaling a business isn’t just about systems and strategy; it’s about alignment. Take the time to evaluate what truly drives growth for you, and double down on that.
