Matthew Boon the sales sniper joined us this week to discuss the very important and highly underestimated power of sales.

It’s an area dogs trainers and small business owners usually suck at. We don’t realise how important it is until the phone’s not ringing ans the money isn’t coming in.

Sales is an area that makes or breaks your company so it literally pays to get it right. Having a good coach help to get you there is the same for us in training dogs for clients.

Good business coaching is a skillset and science requiring investment. Don’t make the mistake of not investing in it.

On the podcast, Matt mentioned his sales pages show notes link. and here it is.

Social nuances is described as a subtle or slight degree in difference. On the Canine Paradigm, the word nuances is often raised when we discuss training styles. however, it extends beyond just our interest of dogs and training.

We are living in a time of many social nuances, some that are quite strongly projected. To best discuss this, we brought in someone smarter than us to help diagnose the subject.

Birdy O’Sheedy has joined us again to offer her professional insight, not only on this but our old friend the ego.

Hopefully this episode will give you a few tools to better understand the ways we communicate.

Furthermore, you can reach out to Birdy if you are having difficulty with the world around us.

Additionally, there are many good people within our groups who help by just being available to talk with.

Episode 132: Coping with being bitten

Coping with being bitten is quite an undertaking as it can really change your perspective. It really can be something difficult to comprehend as it feels so personal.

Being bitten can and does change your relationship with your dog as it can leave you feeling violated. It can make you question your confidence and safety with your dog and many times your ability as a trainer.

In this episode we try and make a little sense of why these things happen and give suggestions on how to cope. However, as we are not psychologists, we can only make recommendations when thoughts are too serious.

In the event you do find yourself struggling with your thoughts, we always recommend the council of a trained professional. One to examine the dogs behaviour and perhaps someone to help with your thoughts.

Dogs bite for a lot of reasons, therefore we suggest being aware of the events leading up to being bitten. Although this is a helpful suggestion, it may not always be practical.

Scent detection is an art form in dog training that is best described as a methodology with many nuances. Two very well respected trainers who are well known for their work in scent training join us for this episode.

Jerry Bradshaw and Cameron Ford join us again, this time together, to share their ideas and techniques in scent training.

Like most trainers, both of these gentlemen have their respective style. Although we may have our preferences, we can’t deny good training and results.

Making sense of scents is a skill set that all good detection trainers should strive for. Additionally, it not only improves the dogs we train but the students we coach.

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did.

For more information or to contact them, Jerry is at Tarheel Canine and Cameron is at Ford K9

Interviewing a new trainer should be a process that all new and existing dog owners strongly consider.

We say this because a lot of time, people end up with the wrong trainer for a range of different reasons. Many of these are because they didn’t do their homework in the first place. Other reasons include being duped by clever marketing.

It’s forgiveable to assume, big add, lots of money so they must be a great trainer. It can also mean that they are just great at marketing and average at the important part.

This really needs to be a win/win scenario which results in a great outcome for you and your dog

The role of the master coach ultimately is to empower the student to learn everything they can. It’s teaching a person to be empowered, not creating a dependant. In last weeks episode we spoke about dependencies. What’s interesting and disturbing is that some coaches exploit that.

They become a drug dealer rather than a life dealer. Instead of coaching the bird to leave the nest and fly, they keep the bird small and make it feel helpless without the coach.

A true master coach is not about vanity and ego. They want their student to ultimately be better than them.

Diminishing return is an episode that focus’s around a point of obsession. That area is based around people who too much of something, which throws their life plan out of balance.

For example, think of a student who studies for a job. Once they get the qualification, they then feel that perhaps they should do some more study to stay ahead of the game. Then, after they finish that course, they enrol in another and then another and so on. Now they are in a phase of diminishing return.

In the field of economics, diminishing returns has a different meaning which is, s the decrease in the marginal output of a production process as the amount of a single factor of production is incrementally increased, while the amounts of all other factors of production stay constant.
