Instructions:
If you are starting a new home-based or commercial location grooming business, or expanding an existing one, use this version of
our "Planners." New career business owners may include your grooming training, business organization costs, various services,
advertising and other startup or expansion costs. Other versions are available for mobile grooming businesses. There is also a
handy Daily Shopping Planner you can use year round to restock your business already in operation. You may also want to use i t
for planning your purchases at an upcoming trade show. All planners are at www.petgroomershop.com.
Data Entry
It's easy to use the Excel version of our shopping lists to organize and calculate your total spending. The "cells" of the
spreadsheet are color-coded. You only enter text or numbers in the blue-shaded cells , no exceptions. You do not have to fill-in all
of the cells. Columns are labeled describing what data to enter and examples of completed fields are shown below. Because you
are using Excel it will calculate your spending totals based on your data entry. There is no need to enter any formulas, jus t data.
You may enter dollars AND cents, but all entries will be rounded to the nearest dollar.
Every time you enter data into the blue-shaded cells the Summary page is updated. Subtotals for each category of expenditures
are transposed to the Summary page and a special graph illustration is continuously updated whenever you enter data. We
suggest you save your work often. Make back-up copies. To use the Excel version you will need a computer with the Microsoft
Excel program, or compatible such as the free Open Office (www.openoffice.org). This version has been tested to work with Mac
systems running MS Excel, but compatibility is not guaranteed.

Grooming Business Plan Helper & Sampler. They include mandatory factors expected in business plan financials such as startup
assets and expenses, income projection, cash flow analysis and balance sheet expressions. Use this tool to get a rough idea o f
your required spending to start, remodel or expand your business. The spending information you collect when completing this
shopping lists may be transposed to your formal business plan including the many Excel files provided in Pet Grooming Business
Plan Helper & Sampler.
