One on One: A Dog Trainer's Guide to Private Training (Train the Trainer Series Book 3)
Have you always wanted to do one on one, private lessons, but didn't know how to go about it? This guide is like having a friend explain it all! You'll start with exercises to assess your current skills, learn about sales and scheduling, and view sample phone scripts. Then it's on to the ins and outs of taking a history: questionnaires are broken down into lifestyle, training, and behavior issues, and include explanations of what your clients' responses might mean.
You'll get pointers on designing lesson plans and protocols, tips on promoting client compliance, and an entire chapter devoted to commonly asked questions. There's even a bonus section with ready-to-use forms, contracts, and handouts!
- Pros and cons of selling single sessions versus packages - What to do if an owner cannot perform an exercise correctly - Which exercises should never be done back to back - Which questions are crucial to ask in aggression cases - How to work with two dogs in a home - Special considerations for working with elderly clients - Whether to offer discounted rates to shelters or rescues - How to handle a recommendation for euthanasia - Where to get further training on behavior issues ---and much more!
