We hope you had a wonderful weekend, and a great start to your week! We’re in the beginning of a new quarter, so be sure to keep an eye out for new manufacturer promotions on our Promotion Page! Below, you’ll find updates from the team, friendly reminders, industry news, and opportunities to learn more about Vetcove’s useful features.
Feature Spotlight: Categories
Just last week, we launched a new categories feature to help refine your searches on Vetcove! You can utilize categories (found on the left-hand side of your search page) to further filter your search results. This filter function is especially useful for broad searches, like “syringes”, that might return a big mix of results. You can also view categories in the Analytics tab, and see which types of products your clinic is spending money on.
