In this jam-packed episode of Scoop for Success, host Kohl Merling sits down with Anthony Salazar, the founder of Salazar Scoops and the YouTube channel Poop Scoops for Noobs. What started as a side hustle during COVID quickly grew into a thriving full-time business with 220 recurring clients—and Anthony isn’t stopping anytime soon.
From building a pooper scooping empire in Salt Lake City to leading a fast-growing online community for fellow scoopers, Anthony shares the real scoop on scaling a dirty job into a clean business. He opens up about the grind of juggling a full-time job while scooping 7 days a week, hiring his first employees, building a company culture, and designing thoughtful customer experiences (hello, custom doggy newsletters and boomerang marketing!).
