Pet business marketing!

Do you need help marketing your pet business?

Leslie May was a successful veteran marketer who began her own consulting business in 2002. But her love of animals--and growing menagerie of cats and dogs--was the inspiration to take her firm into a branded niche service exclusively to help owners of pet-related businesses.

Pawsible Marketing has since spawned several other growing concerns, including Johann the Dog (selling toys and products for active and sporting dogs), Raise a Green Dog (presenting tips and products for raising environmentally healthy dogs), and Rescue Me (helping lost pets find a new home), each focused on a different aspect of serving those beloved four-legged, furry friends.

May has been helping companies with their marketing for nearly 20 years. Within the past 4 years she has been the founder of Pawsible Marketing. Read more about how Pawsible Marketing helps pet businesses all over the World be more successful!

Pawsible Marketing name to Entrepreneur Magazine's list of "100 Brilliant Ideas" for 2010!

Pawsible Marketing has been named to Entrepreneur Magazine's list of "100 Brilliant Ideas" for 2010.

The cover story for the June 2010 issue of Entrepreneur recognizes "brilliant" companies in categories ranging from mobile technology and outsourcing to fitness and pets.

Co-authors Kara Ohngren and Jennifer Wang examined 10 business areas that are growing fast and found companies in each of the categories that "bring jaw-dropping ingenuity to the table. A bold concept perfectly in sync with the moment: It's what great companies are built on. It's what shapes the future. It's entrepreneurship at its best."

Pawsible Marketing was also featured in a recent Entrepreneur.com article, "10 Ways to Build Your Personal Brand." Author Lydia Dishman explored 10 business owners who have managed to navigate the rough waters of personal and professional branding to emerge with winning concepts.

"When it comes to starting and growing a business, there's one kind of equity that can't be measured in dollars: brand equity. It has nothing to do with cash on hand, real estate, inventory or any other tangible assets, but it's more important for the health and sustainability of the enterprise than any of them. A strong personal brand that dovetails seamlessly with a business has the power to turn customers' perception into profits. This is most important for entrepreneurs who often start businesses with nothing more than an idea and a firm handshake," shared Dishman.

"What an honor to be selected by the Entrepreneur editorial staff as one of the most brilliant business ideas for 2010, as well as singled out for our personal branding success," said Leslie May, founder of Pawsible Marketing. "Every day I feel fortunate that through our company's marketing efforts and guidance, I am able to assist and inspire other pet business owners to help build their businesses and further our collective passion for enhancing the special bond between humans and our four-legged friends," shared May.

Leslie May, founder of Pawsible Marketing was a successful veteran marketer who began her own consulting business in 2002. Her love of animals - and growing menagerie of cats and dogs - was the inspiration to take her firm into a branded niche service exclusively to help owners of pet-related businesses with all their marketing needs.

Pawsible Marketing has since spawned several other growing concerns, including Johann the Dog (an online portal offering toys and products for agility training), Raise a Green Dog (presenting tips and products for raising environmentally friendly and healthy dogs), and Rescue Me (helping lost pets find their furever home), each focused on a different aspect of serving those beloved furry friends.

The event is also a great forum for pet business owners, as it provided education and tips on how to utilize social media to build their brand and increase visibility.

"It's was a great event for any pet lover or pet business owner to find out from the experts how social media can further their business, and also connect with other like minded pet lovers from all over the world," says Leslie May. "My dog Johann and were excited about meeting with many new pet lovers and pet business entrepreneurs at the event to network and share knowledge of social media marketing from not only my perspective, but Johann's as well."
