It would be nice if all we had to do was create a wish list, leave it beside the chimney and wait for the magic to happen, but sadly, that's NOT how business works.

Fear ye not, for in this festive episode, the Pet Biz Wiz will show you how target clients who can afford to pay your business the income you want!
