I don't really understand the use case. Why would anybody pay $5 for a 30-day graded quiz rather than just Googling what foods are toxic to dogs or asking their vet?

  Thank you so much for your question! I really appreciate it... People should pay $5 because: -As we explain in "Step 3" on our landing page, the online quiz is graded automatically after you answer each question. So if you answer that raisins are safe (they are not), we will immediately teach you that they are toxic after you submit your answer and you can apply this every day in caring for your dog, especially around the kitchen. -We teach you through 15 questions all the toxic foods there are for dogs. No need to randomly google it when in doubt. Even if you google it, you will not get a comprehensive and complete list of toxic fruits, toxic vegetables, toxic edibles, etc. Google will give you scattered and incomplete info from websites with other agendas and mixed with ads. We solve that for you in a simple, quick and fun format. -It is a one stop shop to learn all you need to know about the topic. We add value by helping prevent your dog from getting sick and to avoid expensive vet bills which can be in the hundreds of dollars. -To be clear, you can re take the Quiz for 30 days and share access with anyone in your household. Children are often not educated about this topic and feed the dogs toxic foods. This is a great resource for the kids to learn what they need to know. -Most people with dogs who take the quiz start overconfident and fail the Quiz. Clearly there is a problem and a gap in people's knowledge we are addressing and solving. You still think 5 minutes and $5 is too much to ask to keep your dog safe?

    Your content sounds like it is good, but not unique. Paying money for temporary access to content that is easily found online, or in brochures at the vet, is not a strong use case. I know you clearly have stated that you think search results and vets are not helpful, but I respectfully disagree. I do not find it a challenge to navigate the lists I found online, and my vet takes time to talk to us about all our concerns. Maybe you see something I don't, but this just doesn't seem like a problem needing a paid solution.

      I appreciate your continued feedback! My content is not unique. That is not our goal either. Our format and simple learning process is unique. It aggregates and simplifies useful authoritative knowledge and presents it in a simple, convenient, quick format. You can get in your car, spend some of that cheap gasoline, go to the vet to buy commodity pet products like shampoo or tick and flea preventatives. Or you can take 2 minutes to go on Amazon which sells the same commodity products, but it is easier, simpler, faster and more convenient. You could search for basic pet supplies at a brick and mortar pet store or you can go on Chewy.com. By the way, they said Chewy would never be able to compete with Amazon. Well, they have kept growing revenue non-stop for years and now trade in the New York Stock exchange with a $16 BILLION market capitalization. Just a pet supply store with a website... Unique? How are they unique compared to Amazon? But sure, a lot of people will drive to Wal Mart to buy stuff they can get in 2 minutes from Amazon. The market is big enough for everyone. I think some people like you will prefer to browse and passively consume scattered information on the web. I also think other people will prefer to take 5-10 minutes to learn through a short interactive quiz that removes all complexity and solves the lack of knowledge in a simple way. By the way, at the end of the quiz, users can download the test questions and correct answers as a PDF. In effect, the $5 you pay include a PDF that tells you all you need to know about toxic fruits, vegetables, edibles etc. Any feedback?

      To clarify, I never said vets are not helpful. Please read my original answer again. I made the case that their focus is medical care and treating food poisoning, instead of educating and PREVENTING food poisoning. They make more money treating the disease than preventing it. The incentive is not there either. By the way, how sure are you that you would retain all the knowledge to avoid life-threatening food poisoning of your dog after navigating all the free content on the web? Would you test yourself somehow? What if you miss something key? Willing to threaten your dog's life on it? Isn't that worth $5? Please ask your vet the cost of treating food poisoning at his/her clinic and post it here.

  Oh, forgot to address the vet part of your question. Vets in the US are overwhelmed since the pandemic because 13 million pets were adopted and the demand for their services skyrocketed. The vet supply did not increase due to the pandemic... They usually give you 10 minutes to do a physical, take care of vaccines, address any serious issues and don't have time to teach you about all the toxic foods. It is kind of a long list. Vets provide medical care, not education. The culture and service is designed to treat sick dogs and food poisoning, not to teach dog owners in order to prevent the dogs from getting sick in the first place. petlovequiz solves this gap in educational knowledge in society.
