How to Work Best With The Humans In Your Pet Business


A lot of pet business owners focus on the pets in their business and often forget that it’s also important to cultivate a relationship with the pet owners. It can also be helpful to know why that particular client owns a pet in order to most easily fulfill the needs of caring for that pet. In this segment, Martin will explain the various stages of building relationships with your human clients and share important points when you first meet a client.

Kristin - MUSINGSKristin’s Musings:

I first met Martin a couple of years ago when he invited me to speak at the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP) annual conference in Alexandria, Virginia. I have to say: meeting him in person was pure delight. He’s got fun, big energy, and every time I saw him at the conference, he always had a huge crowd of people laughing with him.

Martin has been working with dogs and their humans for many years, and he’s also a very astute businessman. And, like I said, he’s also a guy who likes to laugh and have fun, and he brings that playful part of his personality into a lot of his client interactions (and you’ll see some of that here, too).

    I really enjoyed Martin, I would immediately trust him with my dogs. He is a lot like wonderful Cesar Millan in his no touch, no talk , no eye contact. I follow this every time I do a consultation to show respect to the pets. I would like to see Cesar next year on the seminar with his wealth of dog knowledge.
