A dogbiz University Course
Whether marketing makes you feel downright queasy, or you just need some more effective ideas, this class is for you.
Module 1: The Key Marketing Concepts
Module 2: Mastering Your Messaging
We start with a whole new way of looking at marketing—one that frees you from the expensive, uncomfortable approaches that keep most dog pros from doing their marketing.
Then we’ll make sure your marketing message is ready to rock. You’ll learn how to avoid (or fix!) the common mistakes most dog pros make, and how to craft a compelling message to convince potential clients to become actual ones.
Module 3: Branding That Binds
Module 4: All Roads Lead To Your Website
Let’s make sure the materials your potential clients see and read—including your website—are set up to make your best impression. That includes your logo, so we’ll cover the biggest logo do’s and don’ts.
Then we turn to your most important sales tool—your website. If you’re like most dog trainers and walkers, you don’t relish having to make the sale. So let’s make sure your website does that part for you! We’ll teach you the 5 specific things your website must do so you don’t have to sell.
Module 5: Choosing the Right Projects: Your Balanced Marketing Plan
Module 6: How to Get Vets & Other Pros Referring To You
Module 7: Getting New Clients By Sharing What You Know
Module 8: Fans for Life: Repeat Business & Client Referrals
So what marketing should you actually be doing? We tell you which projects and efforts to stop bothering with, and which really work—and how. We’ll share lots of specific examples, and help you choose the right ones for your business, skill set, and comfort level.
Module 9: Getting Social Media Right
Module 10: Mastering Your Marketing Schedule
Done right, social media can boost your business. Done poorly, it can bust you. And the thing is, the rules are changing. We show you how to use your social media time to the best—and most efficient—effect.
You’d rather be working with dogs. We get that. So we wrap by showing you how to manage your marketing. We’ll build a marketing calendar that shows you exactly what to do when, how to keep your marketing going without stress, and how to schedule it to avoid the seasonal slumps that cause financial distress.
Bonus Module 11: Marketing Messages During the Pandemic
Bonus Module 12: Getting Your Message Out During the Pandemic
These are bonus modules from the dogbiz “Survive & Thrive” series.
We look at how to adjust your marketing message during the pandemic era and review the kinds of marketing projects that will help you gain clients and emerge from this crisis with momentum.

“I’ve taken other marketing courses before, but Marketing Made Easy was the most valuable because it is specific to the industry I work in. I was stuck when it came to what I need on my website, how to build relationships with veterinarians, and which specific marketing projects I should work on. I’m actually excited about marketing now, since I know that it doesn’t mean that I’ll just be grinding away on social media or awkwardly introducing myself to people at vet offices or pet stores. This course is packed with ideas and was very motivating!”

“The Marketing Made Easy course holds true to its name. The course laid everything out in an easy to understand format and presented helpful marketing ideas. The course not only helps with marketing, but is thought provoking in that it helps you focus on your various services- which ones may not be beneficial, which ones you can focus on/expand, or help you find a niche. It’s marketing with some business planning all rolled into one.”
