*Picking The Pet Business For You*

Maybe you already know what pet business you'd like to start, or maybe you just know that you and animals are great together and you just want to do something in the pet industry. Deciding what business works best for you and which route will be the best fit is something you should really work through.

You've probably heard about doing something you love, and this is true for most people. But in some cases doing what you love can backfire and now what you used to love is something that has become a chore or just plain not fun anymore. Maybe you should consider something that you know would be a great service to others, or something that is desperately needed where you are. I've found that success breeds interest, and when you become successful or fill a great niche or need you sometimes find something that you didn't realize you loved. How great would that be? In my personal journey I've found that when I started doing something because I loved it so, after a bit it became something that I wanted to do less and less, why? Because now instead of doing for the love of it my motivation switched to the money of it. Not always a recipe for success, it works wonderfully for some but not for all.

You need to asses what you're good at overall, are you great at organizing, or solving difficult problems, or maybe you enjoy helping others find their passions. Because the pet industry is so vast in many cases your love of what you can do best and naturally can be turned into an enjoyable and profitable pet industry business or pet service. Let me list some associations of skills that you could match with services or businesses.

A good start is to jot down things you see that look interesting, or things you see you could do better than what is being done. Keep paper and pen handy and keep your petpreneur spirit alert, you never know when a spark could flame and you're on your way to a great pet business or service for your community.
