BULLDOG PUPPY MARKETING SERVICES I HAVE RECENTLY MADE SOME CHANGES TO MY BULLDOG PUPPY MARKETING SERVICES INFORMATION PLEASE READ CAREFULLY SO YOU WILL HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION !! WE DO OFFER PUPPY MARKETING SERVICES TO MY STUD CUSTOMERS ON CERTAIN LITTERS THAT I HAVE APPROVED TO MARKET IF WE HAVE THE DEMAND FOR PUPPIES AND DON'T HAVE VERY MANY LITTERS OF OUR OWN AT THE TIME! I ONLY MARKET LITTERS OUT OF OUR J BAR T STUDS AND ON LITTERS THAT ARE APPROVED WHICH APPROVAL IS DECIDED ON A LITTER BY LITTER BASIS!! ONCE i HAVE APPROVED THE LITTER THERE IS A COMMISSION LITTER CONTRACT THAT HAS TO BE AGREED UPON BY OUR STUD CUSTOMER AND SIGNED!! Marketing and selling the puppies can be very time consuming and frustrating at times. It is hard to sell Bulldog puppies locally in the Dallas market because it is very competitive. By having a website, online advertising, a reputation as being a good, honest breeder, and having my customers offer a health contract guarantee I have a demand for Bulldog puppies on a regular basis. Right now in the current market and economy I have heard individuals are having to sell their puppies for $1000-$1800, which is, well under the value of what they are worth. Remember we are talking about quality puppies that have numerous champions on their papers through my stud dogs alone. Even then individuals are still having trouble placing them in good homes at this price. Most people end up with poor quality Bulldog puppies when they go out in the marketplace and search for the cheapest one out there. These puppies will have no champions on their papers or are FROM parents that are at best poor pet quality Bulldogs that will produce an even lesser quality Bulldog puppy than what they are. These puppies will not grow into the Bulldog that the buyer hoped they would. That is what I do my best to educate buyers about where they won't be disappointed in the long run because even if they are spending $1000 dollars it is still a lot of money to spend and not end up with what they were hoping for. There is also a lot of frauds and scams that go on with the Bulldog market. So there is buyers out there that are aware of all this and look for a reputable breeder. They like to see a breeder that has a guarantee on their puppies and that has a website that they can see the adult dogs and puppies, their pedigrees and all of the breeder’s information. These buyers like to research and look for a quality puppy before they make an educated decision on their puppy purchase. They also want to deal with a breeder that allows them to come see their dogs and puppies and the place they live in and how they are taken care of!! These are the buyers I target because they are willing to pay more for the right puppy!! I usually get $2000-$3500 for a standard color puppy and $3000 and up on a rare color puppy and the exact price all depends on the overall quality, parents pedigree, gender and color of the puppy and the marketplace at the time and whether the buyer is buying the puppy for pet only or with breeding rights. The service I am now offering is a marketing listing fee of $150.00 to put the puppies pictures and keep them updated and provide information on the litter on my website and $50.00 to do the social media advertising. This also allows you to use the website as an advertising tool and to go to the website for pictures and information on the puppies or to put in your advertising for people to be able to go to the website to see the puppies. If you sell a puppy off your own advertisements then there is no other fee on the sale of the puppy. If I sell a puppy to a customer that comes through my website and my online advertising there is an additional 20% commission on the price that puppy sells for. We will communicate on the pricing of the puppies and determine what each puppy's price will be. I will then put them on my main BABY BULLY PAGE and advertise them on my social media marketing pages and through online advertising sites. I will take all the emails and calls closing the sale on the puppy and collecting the deposit on the puppy if needed or warranted. I will give the customer your contact information and you the customer's contact information to setup appointments to see the puppies if needed or we will setup appointments at the ranch and have you bring the puppies to the ranch for the appointments. If I receive a deposit I will take my commission out of the deposit and send you the remainder if there is any. The balance of the puppy will be paid directly to you unless the buyer needs to pay by credit card or on my website through paypal. If that is the case the buyer will be charged the fee and I will send you the balance on the puppy once it clears my account and the puppy has been vet checked by the customer. If you are paid for the puppy and or the commission is more than the money I receive on the puppy from the customer and I am owed a commission & expenses then you will send me a check for the amount owed. I will need good pictures and some short videos (this makes a huge difference in being able to market & sell the puppies properly) of the puppies and the mother on a regular basis as the puppies grow. I can also do photo shoots for you to get the pictures needed to market your litter if you would like (there is a expense charge for photo shoots!!) I will also need you to contact me on a regular basis updating me on a puppy's availability status. I can't market the puppies effectively without regular contact with you and good updated pictures so please make sure you can make this commitment if you want me to market the puppies for you!!! You will handle the shipment, delivery or pickup of the puppy and be handling the paperwork. If you need me to provide those services, as well, I can provide those at an additional cost. Just contact me for more details about those services. I can deal with the customer in getting flight arrangements and handle all the shipping details. I can also help you in arranging getting a puppy to the airport or to schedule a partial delivery with us meeting the customer halfway by our J Bar T Delivery service. We would charge the buyer the delivery fee if they are interested in that option and for all shipping costs if they are having the puppy shipped by plane. You will be required to provide the puppy buyer with a version of my puppy health contract guarantee in your name, worming and shot records (that must be up to date at the time of sale) and a sample of the food the puppy has been on along with their registration application and parents pedigrees. Please read my health guarantee and come up with your own and send me a copy where I can let customers know the type of health guarantee they will be getting with the puppy. This is a guarantee you will have to stand behind so make sure it is a commitment you can make. WE DO CHARGE FOR SERVICES AND EXPENSES INCURRED IN THE SELLING OR MARKETING PROCESS!!
