This guide is like having a friend explain private training to you! You'll start with exercises to assess your current skills, learn about sales and scheduling, and view sample phone scripts.

Great Handbook for Trainers, June 2, 2004 |
Reviewer: Mychelle Blake |
Nicole Wilde's latest work is an excellent guide to trainers who work one-on-one with clients on obedience and behavioral problems. Aside from tips on structuring sessions and working with people, the book provides a wealth of information on how to take an effective history and lists of questions to ask for the typical behavioral problems that trainers see. I would highly recommend this book for the beginning and established trainer! |
