by Matthew Osborn

Complete, detailed information to guide users in planning, organizing, starting, marketing, and managing a dog waste removal service. Distilled from the author's own 10 years of actual successful experience as founder of PET BUTLER Dog Waste Removal Service in Columbus, Ohio. Matthew Osborn started in 1988, with startup costs of $150 and worked available hours between 2 full-time jobs. Over the next 10 years the business grew to serve over 650 customers every week, with revenues over $20,000 per month, seven employees including a full-time manager, and a fleet of six trucks. With publicity about the unusual business came many inquiries from all over the world. This manual is Matthew's response to that popular demand for more information from people who are interested in starting their own business in this unlikely, but lucrative, occupation.
