Are you cramming in more dogs, adding more staff, and working harder\u2026 only to watch your margins get tighter? And what happens if the pet industry changes faster than your business does? In this episode, I\u2019m officially announcing IMPACT 2027 and laying out the big idea behind this year\u2019s event: The Great Dog Daycare Divide \u2013 How to Avoid the 2030 Pet Care Extinction Event. For the last 20 years, the pet care industry has been riding a huge wave of growth. If you loved dogs, worked hard, charged a fair price, and looked after your customers, you could usually build a successful business. But the market has changed. Competition is more sophisticated. Corporate operators and franchises are expanding. Costs are rising. Staffing is harder. Margins are shrinking. And dog owners are becoming more selective about where they spend their money. As a result, I believe the industry is splitting into two very different camps: pet care \u201cmuggles\u201d still playing by yesterday\u2019s rules, and pet business \u201cwizards\u201d building more premium, experience-led, affluent-attractive businesses designed for the future. In this episode, you\u2019ll discover:  The Great Dog Daycare Divide \u2013 Why the next few years will separate businesses that adapt from those that get left behind. Why the Warehouse Model Is Breaking \u2013 How more dogs, more staff, more hours, and more hustle eventually lead to thinner margins and burnout. What the New Model Looks Like \u2013 Why personalised care, premium pricing, automation, authority, and better leadership are becoming essential. The Signs You\u2019re Stuck in a Muggle Mindset \u2013 The phrases, assumptions, and habits that reveal your business needs an upgrade. Why IMPACT 2027 Is Different&amp;nbsp;\u2013 How two days in Florida can help you rethink pricing, marketing, systems, customer experience, and the future of your facility.  You\u2019ll also hear from Paul Paradis and Eve Molzhon, who share why deeper, more specific business education, better customer experience, and being surrounded by ambitious people can completely change the trajectory of your business.
