Coarse Coats Newsletter #2

Greetings, Valued Coarse Coats Member!

We appreciate your patience and understanding during our brief hiatus since our last newsletter. While we missed our initial launch goal of May, the intervening weeks have been instrumental in laying the groundwork for Coarse Coats' future success.

Founder Updates

Firstly, we'd like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to our founder, Manessa Donovan, who has embarked on an exciting new chapter by opening her own grooming shop. Additionally, she has welcomed a litter of six precious Wire Fox Terrier puppies, contributing to the preservation breeding efforts for this esteemed breed.

Mission & Vision Defined

Amidst these milestones, we've been painstakingly crafting our About Us page, which encapsulates the vital mission, vision, and core values that will define our brand and guide every aspect of our operations.

We've poured our hearts into this endeavor, ensuring that it resonates with the essence of Coarse Coats and the unwavering dedication of our members. Please let us know what you think of it!

A Glimpse of the Potential

Despite being in pre-launch status, our community has grown to 86 members, with 55 actively contributing their expertise to the platform. Together, they bring an impressive 377 years of hand-stripping experience. Just imagine what we can achieve together once we begin advertising and welcome hundreds more active members. The potential for bringing value to pet owners and the entire industry is immense. It's both humbling and incredibly motivating.

The Path Ahead

As we forge ahead with renewed vigor, we remain committed to keeping you informed about upcoming technical updates, membership plans, and other exciting developments that will propel Coarse Coats towards its full promotional launch.

Thank you for your continued support and for being an integral part of this journey. Together, we're building a legacy that celebrates the art of hand stripping and elevates the grooming experience for coarse-coated pets and their owners.

Warm regards,

Manessa Donovan - Founder
Louanna Wilson - Co-Founder

We've made our first client to groomer connection on Coarse Coats!

The first lead went to Misty Maxwell. A potential client moving to her area found her on Coarse Coats.com and reached out to schedule.
