My name is Kristin Morrison and I'm the founder of the Six-Figure Pet Sitting Academy™. I also provide business coaching for pet business owners and I'm the owner of a large pet sitting and dog walking business that is based in California.
A few years ago I created and developed Business Products for Pet Sitters and have affiliates who sell my products via E-junkie. I used a download company prior to E-junkie but I found their rates too high and they were lacking in customer service. I've been with E-junkie for about 3 years now and I'm very, very happy with them. :)
Here's a little background on me and my unusual livelihood:
In 1995, I began my pet sitting business and when I started my pet sitting business in 1995 I knew nothing about running a business; I just knew I loved animals and the job seemed like a good fit for me.
After a couple of years of running my business I noticed I was working 12-14 hours a day, often 7 days a week and somehow not making a profit.
The hectic work schedule and the responsibilities of owning my own business made me feel that I had a leash around my neck!
It was when I began to think seriously about selling my pet sitting business that something happened and it completely changed the way I ran my business.
I realized that, though I wanted to quit, I had a taste of being self-employed. I also noticed that the thought of working for someone else seemed impossible!
I decided that I wanted to find a way to make my pet sitting business work for me instead of against me.
I decided to give myself ONE YEAR to make dramatic changes in the way I ran my business. I decided that, if, in one year, my business began to generate a large profit and if I started to feel more freedom within my business then I would continue to run it. (Because what is the point of lots of money if there is no time to spend it and the quality of one's life is poor?)
So I committed to a solid year of doing everything I could think of to turn my business around. I decided that if the changes I made in one year's time didn't substantially raise my profits in addition to giving me more time to just be 'me' then I would sell my business.
The race was on.
I became fearless and super creative about being open to and experimenting with new ways of running my pet sitting business. I felt like I had nothing to lose since I didn't want to run my business anymore (at least not the way I had been running it).
These unique business practices and my ever-increasing business knowledge began to be reflected in my steadily rising profit margin and more importantly for me, it was reflected in the ease with which I now managed my business.
Through this process of running my business in an entirely different way I began to realize that it wasn't the business that was creating a negative effect on my life, it was the way I ran my business.
As I made the changes within my business, I began to enjoy my life more. I began to smile more. I felt like I had a life again! And the money that was now coming in an easy and nearly effortless way didn't hurt either...
After that one year I did the numbers: I'd made more money in that single year than in the last two years combined!
More importantly for me, though, was the ease with which I now managed my business. These changes were also reflected in the fact that, for the first time since starting my business years before, I had time to myself again.
Recognizing a lack of proper business products for pet sitters I developed and produced business products and tools specifically formulated for pet sitters to create successful, six-figure earning businesses.
Thousands of pet sitters from around the world have used my business tools as a foundation for starting and running their own successful pet sitting businesses.
Through the programs and products offered through the Six-Figure Pet Sitting Academy™, it is my intention to give struggling pet sitters hope and a solid road map to creating their own successful and ease-filled businesses!
I also wrote a book called "Six-Figure Pet Sitting: Catapult Your Pet Sitting Business to Unlimited Success" which has sold many, many copies. It is available in both e-Book format and in hard copy on Amazon.
I welcome new affiliates! You can find me at Six-Figure Pet Sitting Academy.com.
