What It's About
A howling good update from a business selling frozen dog treats.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1265
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Last week we featured a Washington, DC attorney with a course to help new parents return to the workforce. Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Matt Meyer, co-founder of a business that provides frozen treats for dogs in the form of healthy (yet delicious, supposedly) ice cream. A lot has happened since we first featured this canine-loving business back in Ep. 384! Listen to today's episode to hear Matt's updates...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
- The Bear & the Rat: See what all the barking is about and learn more about Matt, Meg and their products on their website!
- Frozen Pup Treats Are No Barking Matter: Frozen yogurt for dogs? Yep. It starts as one couple’s hobby, expands to a farmer’s market, and eventually earns a million dollars in sales.
- Electrical Engineer Rides Demand to Dog Collar Empire: A short-term holdover project between jobs becomes a seven-figure empire, all built on dog collars.
- That’s the Spot! Dog Lover’s Hustle Becomes Fur-ever Biz: A customer service agent engineers a side hustle trans-fur-mation to full-time dog training business.
Quote of the Day
"If you find a need and your company or your side hustle is working to address that need, I'd say to target your fix at the space that you are most familiar with and where you have the most personal contacts."
