Customer surveys show owners want daily photo updates of their pets. What is the best way to evaluate adding this service?

Assessing workload and trialing the service balances customer demand against operational capacity.
Which is a common reason boarding staff resist new technology?
Answer: Fear of looking incompetent or losing time with animals
Resistance often stems from anxiety about new skills and concern that technology will pull attention away from pet care.
A facility introduces a new vaccination-verification policy requiring veterinary records before check-in. How should existing customers be informed?

Advance notice through multiple channels helps customers comply and avoids check-in conflicts.
