They also know what pet nutrition might help with hip problems and other issues. You can tell that this is their passion. David knew more about the dog food we were feeding our dog than I knew, and I was reading the label – he knew well beyond the label.

Your value is no longer about delivering the commodity item. Rather, your value lies in the expertise and service the customer can’t get elsewhere."
