Quotes:
"But what they find out afterward, is the money's not the important thing. What it is, is going out in the trailer and making sure that you like it." - Sharon Connell
"I talked to a lot of franchisees from Dog Washing Air, the support they always mention as well, and they love the training and how they can just call anyone about a particular breed or what to do here, and someone's always willing to help." - Sharon Connell
