Why a custom dog coat isn't expensive
The term "custom" when used with "dog coat" can sound expensive. It says "special" or "unique" or "hard-to-come-by." But that's not exactly the case when you look at the whole picture. While it's important to get the best value, there are some assumptions made that could be cleared up with a little information.
What is a custom dog coat?
A custom product is one that is customized to the specifications of the buyer. In this case, it's a dog coat that's made just for your dog. Since it's made just for your dog, this coat should fit better than any other coat out there. It should have all the features and colors too.
A Made by De coat is made specifically for your dog, using your measurements. I am personally available to answer any questions you might have. And I work with you to come up with the perfect creation for your dog. I also alter or repair it as needed. My goal is to provide you and your dog with a coat that will be well-loved and well-used for years to come.
Is it more expensive to buy a custom dog coat?
Well, the answer is yes and no. Yes, because the initial cost to buy a custom dog coat from Made by De versus one at PetSmart or Chewy, for example, is probably a bit higher. And no, because that isn't the whole story. That less expensive product probably isn't just what you wanted. When you buy a product that has a lower price tag, it doesn't end there.
Sure, that product is less expensive when you first charge your credit card. But then you get it home to try on your dog. Does it fit well enough that your dog likes wearing it or can you "get by" with it? Did they have the colors and features you wanted, or did you have to settle for something else that isn't quite it?
The problem is, if you're not quite satisfied or if your dog doesn't like wearing the coat, you'll be looking for another one before long. Either your dog will chew it up or refuse to move in it, or you'll try again to get the "perfect" coat. That means pulling out the credit card again. Now, was that less expensive coat as inexpensive as you thought?
Buying custom is an investment that's worth it.
Some people can afford to pay top dollar for their dog stuff and don't worry about the money. They'll pay for convenience, quality, and status.
Other people would like to be able to pay top dollar, but they're careful. They don't want to pay any more than necessary for the quality they're desiring. They might pay top dollar in a pinch, but they consider pretty carefully what they're buying.
Then there are the people who want to buy at the lowest cost or not at all. It's sort of a badge of honor to get the lowest price possible. These people look at paying the lowest price possible.
If you think about it, buying a custom coat meets the needs of all three of these people. The first set of people get something that's quality and unique, meeting the status goal. The second set of people get something that is, overall, the most product for the money. And the last set of people end up saving money by not having to purchase again and again.
Buying a custom dog coat is a good investment.
Buying a custom dog coat sounds like an extravagance, but it's really wise. The price paid initially is more than made up in the savings of not having to purchase something else because the first item just wasn't quite right. And buying quality the first time around means that you won't have to buy a new dog coat every year (although I'd love to sell it to you).
If you add up the cost of one custom Made by De dog coat versus the several you'd have to buy because the coat doesn't fit, it wasn't exactly what you and your dog needed, or it just wasn't made to hold up very long, the answer is easy. Buying custom is actually less expensive!
