ARE YOU HIRING? We know that many of you have been hiring new staff as your operations start to get back to normal. Is it safe to assume that background checks are part of your hiring process? Are you aware that Acutraq offers IBPSA Members a special discount on background screenings? Learn about their special IBPSA pricing and take advantage of this opportunity to ensure that your new staff members meet your standards. And be sure to check out the Member Benefits section of your InfoHub for discounts and specials offered by other IBPSA Vendor Members.

CONFERENCE IS 135 DAYS AWAY! September is not far off, so while you may be preparing for the busy summer season, we encourage you to think ahead to the Fall, when you have an opportunity to do some work ON your business. We encourage facility owners and managers to consider bringing some staff members to this year’s Flow Business Conference (September 22-24 in Orlando, Florida) to expand their knowledge, meet other pet care providers, and get to know our fabulous Exhibitors on the Trade Show Floor. Bring 4 or more people from your facility and receive $50 off each ticket (must register at the same time). AND, register in May to receive 30 extra entries into our prize drawings – which includes the opportunity to win a $5000 prize! The Flow Business Conference is open to everyone! Learn more and register at petcareconference.com.

EXHIBITOR REGISTRATION. The IBPSA Flow Conference is open for Exhibitor Registration – it is not necessary to be an IBPSA Member to participate. Are you interested in meeting decision-makers and leaders in the pet care services industry? We would love to meet you! Learn more and register at petcareconference.com.
