You listen to someone’s issues and problems about their dog, and you explain how you can provide the solution only to never hear from them again.

You watch someone making the same mistake over and over and over again and you feel like a broken record explaining what to do. It’s like they just won’t listen and you’re at your wit’s end.

Training the dog is the easy part! You feel frustrated when you can’t get a client to do what they need to do to maintain the behaviors you’ve trained their dog.

You have some clients you just can’t click with (get it? “Click” with!)

You’re sick of turning to Facebook to vent about difficult owners.

We all know training the dogs is the easy part! We’re experts in communicating with animals and that doesn’t always mean we’re experts in communicating with people. If you want your clients to hear what you are saying and really make a difference in training their dog, we all know the limiting factor is the owner. Until now…

Easily learn how to identify different personality types with a system designed by psychologist Dr. William Marston. Personal Discernment Inventory (DISC) will allow you to become an expert at connecting with your clients so you can:

- Be more effective in delivering your message.

- Increase your sales, resulting in increased income.

- Network with other trainers at conferences and seminars more effectively.

The DISC model uses a number of categories to organize how people tend to respond to their environment. Understanding ourselves and others will drastically improve our ability to work together with our clients. This understanding is a critical building block for building relationships.

Once you understand other styles and have seen how they work together, you can better learn to communicate with people of different temperaments.
