Episode 134: Summer Mini Marathon - Capcut

Author: The Pet Shop Girls June 23, 2026 Duration: 24:22
Running a business can feel overwhelming. Too many ideas, too many tools, and not enough time to make it all work. This summer, we’re breaking down the tools that actually help us run and grow our business without burning out. Welcome to the Smart Tech Summer Mini Series. Each short episode focuses on one tool we use in our day-to-day—from email and organization to content creation, AI, and marketing. We cover platforms like SaneBox, Notion, Linktree, CapCut, Printful, Claude, Arvin, Megaphone AI, and Giphy. We walk through how each tool fits into our workflow, what problem it solves, and how you can start using it in your own business. If you’re running a business, creating content, or just trying to stay organized, this series is for you. New mini episodes drop all summer. The right tools don’t just save time—they change how you work. Connect with the Pet Shop Girls!

Running a small business in the pet industry is a unique blend of passion and hustle. Pet Shop Girls with Sherry (Odyssey Pets) and Carly (House of Paws)-A Podcast for Independent Pet Pros gets right into the heart of that daily reality. Sherry brings two decades of experience from her own shop, Odyssey Pets in Dallas, covering everything from inventory to customer quirks. Carly, from House of Paws, adds her own frontline perspective. Together, they ditch the generic advice for conversations that actually sound like the ones you’d have with a trusted colleague. You’ll hear them work through the real stuff: practical marketing that doesn’t require a huge budget, the nuances of hiring and training a team that cares as much as you do, and how to sidestep pitfalls that can trip up even seasoned pros. They also keep an ear to the ground for the trends and ideas that matter to independent shops, not just the big chains. This podcast feels like a regular check-in with friends who understand exactly what you’re building, offering a mix of hard-won wisdom and fresh thinking to help your business thrive. Tune in for honest talk about making a living while doing what you love for animals and their families.
