🎙️ The Power of Play, Purpose & Client Connection with Mark GoldbergWhat if the secret to lasting client loyalty and better-trained dogs isn't just your training technique—but how well you listen?This week on Paws and Profits: Unleash Your Inner Intrepreneur, I’m joined by my longtime mentor and friend, Mark Goldberg—author, professional dog trainer, and co-writer of several bestselling books with the Monks of New Skete, including Let Dogs Be Dogs and The Joy of Playing with Your Dog.Mark and I go way back—18 years of dog training wisdom, leadership roles in the IACP, and sharing war stories from the field. In this episode, we dive deep into the evolution of training philosophies, the power of mentorship, and how to build meaningful relationships with both dogs and their people.Here’s what you’ll take away from this unforgettable conversation: Why listening to your clients is the real secret to long-term success How to blend training with storytelling to create deep emotional buy-in What it means to "train to your standard, but send home just good enough" How to use play (yes, even fetch!) as a structured training tool Why understanding your client’s priorities matters more than perfection How to balance high drive dogs' needs with real-world owner expectations If you’ve ever wondered how to build a business with staying power—this one’s a must-listen. Tune in, take notes, and prepare to laugh, learn, and maybe get a little nostalgic.🎧 Listen now at: https://ontariodogtrainer.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KarenDogTrainer LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/karenlawstheontariodogtrainer/ 👉 You can find Mark Goldberg at: Website: https://chicagodogtrainer.com #PawsAndProfits #DogTrainingBusiness #DogTrainerTips #ClientConnection #PlayWithPurpose #MarkGoldb…
