"The response I have received from using your tools, shampoo etc in my grooming shop is surely a testament of your product and the media, radio, television and news papers have just dicovered how successful your product is and can't get enough of promoting my shop and the results we produce. In other words my girls and I are overwhelmed with the results and all the attention and new customers we are getting that request this treatment...you could say we are celebrities of sorts and our customer love us and what we can do for them to make living with their shedding pet so much more enjoyable. We are the only authorized treatment facility in our section of British Columbia which has resulted in new customers travelling to us from hundreds of miles away to have this procedure done on their dog or cat. I'm sure you hear stories like mine every day but in our town of 3000 my business has grown from 100 feline and canine customers to over 600 and still counting! My girls and are thrilled but that excitement could not compare to how we felt after using the FURminator and seeing the instant results! It was like magic!"

"I have a lab mix that has extremely excessive shedding. I cannot even bring her in the house because fur just falls off of her as she walks. I recently began taking her to a groomer who uses the complete FURminator program. I have been bragging to everyone about it! My sister recently told me that she had seen the grooming tool on TV, so I quickly did some internet searching and ordered my FURminator immediately! I plan to use it between groomer visits. Well, I received my grooming tool yesterday, and I absolutely LOVE it! My dog's fur looks incredible. It is so shiny and soft I just keep running my hand over her fur. The even better thing is that my dog doesn't even mind the grooming anymore. There are places on her that I was never able to touch with all the other brushes, combs, etc, etc that I had been using, but I think she actually likes this little gadget! When I ordered it, I didn't even think about using it on my cat, but I tried it and COULD NOT BELIEVE all the hair that came out of one short-haired cat! I didn't realize a cat even had that much fur! Thanks for a truly miraculous product,"

"I recently tried out the Shed-Less/Furminator treatment. I ran an ad in the local paper ‘Wanted: Shedding Dogs’ and offered the first treatment free. The ad also stated that the cost of the bath and brush was not included. I usually do 20-25 dogs in a week during my slow time (I'm a one-person shop). I did 40 dogs that week alone. I now have new returning clients because they loved the treatment so well and I'm making extra money of the treatment!"

"The Corgi in the attached pic has generated TONS of business for us. She also has a sister that left the same amount of hair in our salon (Emma and Tucker). We took pics of the "mess". Their mother was so excited that she told all of her friends. Didn't hurt that she had a big dinner party that night at her house and she showed the pics to her guests. Look out vacuum cleaner dealers - as our biz increases, your sales are decreasing!!!?My staff is complaining that we are booking too many "Furminations" in one day, and?he vets are even referring clients to us. ?I did a Persian cat last week and removed almost an entire 13 gallon trash bag of hair from that one - he's not a big guy, either"

"I think the FURminator is awesome! So do my customers.

My boyfriend has a Lab/Golden Retriever mix, and I've been using the FURminator shampoo, solution, and tools with her, she barely sheds now!!

I bathed her twice just using regular shampoo, dryer, and tools recently because I was getting low on the FURminator shampoo, and she definetly shedded a lot more! So I've seen first hand this stuff works."

"I have had a lot of success with Furminator and using it I can get my Goldie and GSD and Huskie grooms up to about $100! The groom doesn't take as long as the cleanup on GSDs and Huskies!

I am mobile so with my minimum to go out kind of high for dogs like Beagles and Bassetts I include Furminator with the groom. I have a Beagle myself and I'll toss her in the van and Furminate her every four weeks ... no more piles of short little hairs all over my bed pillows!!"

"We also offer the Furminator treatment at my salon. It has had overwhelmingly positive results. 99% of the clients that get the service get it with the full groom or bath. I find that it works much better that way."

"I LOVE THE FURMINATOR! It is proving itself to be all that it promises. My customers and I love the results. A few have even said they think their dogs look like they've lost weight after having the Shed-Less treatment. "

"We adopted our husky mix dog, Copper, from the Anchorage Animal Shelter (Alaska), and thought he was a wonderful addition to our family. Even though we loved him, we were embarrassed about his shedding problem. His hair was everywhere, no matter how much we brushed him or how many times we vacuumed."

"Since moving to Houston, TX, his new groomer suggested the Shed-Less Treatment. I thought it was a bit pricey and I was very skeptical that it would actually work. In desperation, I tried it. To my surprise it did actually work! I have made it a regular grooming practice now for the past six months and vacuum only on a more "regular" basis. Our family can now enjoy our dog without seeing hair everywhere and he's been happier too."

Sincerely,
Carol Lantz

"Since introducing FURminator into our shop we have have amazing results. I have had to hire 4 new people to keep up with demand. My clients like it so much that a few of them have come back and re-tipped the person who performed the FURminator shed-less treatment on their pet. We had a $10,000.00 revenue increase from last month. Most of which is the FURminator."

"Nothing compares to how much hair the Furminator can get out. With or without the solution it works great. I used it on a Basset Hound yesterday, I wish I would have had my camera. Better than all the Coat Kings combined and it does NOT cut the hair, just pulls out the dead hair. "

"I have recently purchased the FURminator tool and the de-shedding solution. In my opinion the FURminator tool works better than any other tool I have used so far. The results are awesome, I was so pleased with the FURminator, I went ahead and ordered the mobile kit and all clients (including me with my own lab) are very happy with the results and didn't mind paying the extra for the service. After the dogs are almost dry I use the tool in one hand and in the other I have a small handheld blow dryer on low which blows the hair out of my way while I brush. This works great! "

"The FURminator ShedLess program is about a marketing opportunity for groomers. It is an opportunity to spotlight a service and add an extra charge for that service. It is an opportunity to distinquish your service from the competition. It's marketing. We could all benefit by becoming more savvy about marketing. The big corporations are, so as the little guys, we need to sharpen our awareness, too. Here is something I found: Marketing - The process of planning and executing the conception, pricing, promotion, and distribution of goods, services, and ideas to create exchanges that satisfy individual and organisation objectives. Always remember that people buy benefits, not features. People do not buy shampoo; people buy great-looking or clean or manageable hair. People do not buy cars; people buy speed, status, style, economy, performance, and power. Mothers of young kids do not buy cereal; they buy nutrition, though many buy anything at all they can get their kids to eat -- anything. So find the major benefit of your offering and write it down. It should come directly from the inherently dramatic feature. And even though you have four or five benefits, stick with one or two—three at most. http://www.gmarketing.com/tactics/weekly_166.html The FURminator ShedLess tool/product is the first to come along that offers not just the tool and the product, but the marketing concept. They have done the work for us. And not just the ShedLess concept, FURminator is offering the marketing materials - pamphlets, flyers, posters, and a web listing that enables us to manifest the marketing. This is a tremendous gift, a chance for many groomers to reinvent themselves, to define a service in such a way that the public will "get it" and to create added value to our grooming. It really does not matter if you have been DOING IT all along (offering deep combing and thorough deshedding). What matters is if you have been MARKETING it. By marketing the added value of the FURminator Shedless "Treatment", you can then charge the added price. Listen again...it does NOT matter if you've been doing it all along! Have you named it, sold it, priced it? If not, this is a great opportunity to do so. To simply buy the product and not use the marketing is to turn your head to the possibility of increased income. The marketing is a gift at the price, use it or lose it."

"Hi! Just thought I would let you know that the 1st two weeks of May, we started using the program and have made $345 extra in groom sales! Your brochure, shirts, and poster sells it for us! IT WORKS SO WELL, OUR CLIENTS ARE FINALLY PLEASED! "

" Thank you so much for getting this updated so quickly. Again, I want to tell you that I am so thrilled with the purchase of the kit. I had used the tool by itself since last fall and I really think the demat solution makes it the total package. I am very pleased with the results I am getting as are my customers. I have a pretty new business (opened in May) inside an existing kennel and I am marketing this mainly to those kennel customers. What really thrills me is that these customers are going home and showing off their dog with this new treatment! I did one boarding dog about 2 weeks ago. The day after that I get a call from those peoples neighbor.. wanting the same "miracle". A week after that I got a call from a relative of the second dog. Sure puts the fun back into bath & brush dogs. Thank you again for your excellent customer service and products. "

" They sell a new tool that I own called the FURminator, which is sopposed to do the same as carding? We use it in school, and I use it on my own dog. It works great. My dog doesnt shed for a good month. Clients at school rave about how great the FURminator works, and they always want us to do it. (we charge 10.00 extra) I also do all my friends dogs with this and they also rave about how their dogs arent shedding. "

" I am a cairn terrier breeder in Las Vegas, NV and I just returned from a dog show in Arizona. I met a few fellow breeders and one of them just graduated from dog grooming school. She had your FURminator with her and she showed me how it worked. It was fantastic and I was showing one of my puppies and he has so much undercoat. We used it on him and the next two days he was shown and he won winner's dog both days and received 3 point majors the 2 days. Thank you for this wonderful item and all your help. "

" I bought the FURminator at the hershey show. Love IT! I came home and did my black pug (who has lots of soft grey undercoat). He looks great and feels even better. It looks like a rabbit blew up in my back yard, I got sooooo much out of him....with carding the old way I never got this much out EVER! I also did a lab today and it worked great. I can't say enough about it! My hands don't cramp!!! What did I do with out it??! Thanks for a long awaited product. "

" We have started offering the treatments and we are doing well. We have placed some advertising in the local paper (see attachment) to increase this business. We have a large truck like a UPS truck since we started using your product the biggest problem we are having is we can't get all the hair out of the truck.....It clogs both of my roof air conditioning unit filters, it clogs my tub..... But the important thing is the CUSTOMERS ARE HAPPY! Thank You, "

" I bought the FURminator mobile kit last week. My first experience with it was Sat. I wanted to prove to myself it was a good investment so I did a lab the way I normally would, bath, Best Shot, HV dry. Fully brushed out, then over with a curry brush. Then a used the FURminator. WOW! Love it, love it, love it. The kit will be a great business builder for me with the brochures, signs, and I will use the link available to their website. Gonna be a good money maker. "

" I myself have a German Shepherd, and I was so tired of the "tumbleweeds" of her fur in my house, but since I started "furminating" her every 4-5 weeks, I don't have the tumbleweeds anymore. It's great. "

" I used it this past weekend on my friend's husky who is suffering from a skin allergy and took out tons of undercoat. She's scratching a lot less now too...that undercoat must be itchy. "
