Default Pet Supplies stores in Melbourne

Hi there

I'm Phillipa from 4 Paws & More Pet Supplies in Victoria.

I found this amazing site thanks to a need to improve my skills marketing the family business. I hope to join to lots of discussions; both to learn and to offer ideas.

My husband created and owns two stores. The first is in Keilor Park, opened just over five years ago. The newer store is slightly older than a year, and is in Gisborne.

We've found that this industry has grown in that time and we now have quite a few new players that are close in proximity, which makes for challenging times.

I look forward to learning and applying!

Phillipa

Hi Philippa,

Welcome to the forum. Since there are more competitions, here is a case study done by Microsoft on a pet supplies store on how they gained competitive advantage. I am sure you would find this useful. http://bit.ly/eVqpSI
