When attending a pet trade event as a trader, it is a good idea to have a demonstration set up for all to see. If you have a product that pet owners use, a demonstration is going to be the easiest way to sell your product. They help you to sell your product by showing exactly what it is they do. This gives a visual representation of your product, showing clearly how it can help those who purchase it.

Demonstrations are one of the best selling methods for products at pet trade shows. Even if your product is not something you can physically use, for example, food or treats, it is good to have samples on display for pets to try or potential customers to examine.

So, if you are attending a pet trade event as a trader, you must remember a demonstration and samples. This is the best way to promote high sales.

Now Pancake day is over, the next big holiday is Easter! You may have noticed that in the weeks leading up to Easter, pet shops stop selling Rabbits. Today, we are going to share with you where they go and why they stop selling them!

Why Do Pet Shops Stop Selling Rabbits At Easter?
In simple, during the weeks leading up to Easter pet shops stop selling rabbits for one main reason… The Easter Bunny. Due to the legend of the Easter Bunny coming and leaving you Easter eggs or an egg hunt, pet shops have taken it upon themselves to stop the sale of rabbits around this time. The number of sales coming up to Easter increased. But sadly, the amount of returned rabbits after Easter also increased. People purchasing rabbits for the Easter bunny trick did not do their research. They did not understand the amount of care that goes into having a rabbit as a pet. Or they went in with the mindest of returning once Easter was over. As this is not a good life for the rabbits, pet shops decided to stop selling rabbits over this period. Some will still have them on display, but others take them away completely to ensure people are not tempted to share that they are the Easter bunny.

Where Do The Rabbits Go?
If you are heading to a pet shop at Easter that does not even display their rabbits during this time, you will probably be wondering where they go? You don’t need to worry as they are still being cared for. Some rabbits will go to their backstock rooms until easter is over, where they will be fed and cleaned. Some may even be taken home with workers to ensure they are not seen or purchased.

Most people normally value having pets in their homes. You will note that most of them normally stroll around with their pets and so forth. These pets usually provide companionship to their owners. This is the reason why most people value their pets. If you have a pet at home, you should ensure that you feed it as often as possible. If it is sick, you should call a vet to come and check it. In addition, you should ensure that it is well-sheltered. How often do you get updated about pets? Most pet owners rarely read publications on the pet industry. It is important that you read pet industry publications from time to time. (more…)
