info_outlineWhat the hell happens on a VIP Private Consultion Day with Dom?
Answer...A LOT!
And...you can get a sneaky peak behind the scenes of a consultation day by listening to this weeks show, where you'll hear from Jake Long who runs Privilaged Paws Pet Care in Dallas, Texas.
Jake co-hosted my recent Grow Your Pet Business FAST! seminar in Texas, and he's been one of my Elite International One-to-One clients for 8 months.
In that time he has established his thriving pet care business as the premium (most expensive) dog walking service in Dallas.
We hashed out his BIG plans for world domination, and you can hear what Jake got out of the VIP Consultation day by tuning in to this weeks show.
You will learn;
- Why it's important to not just be premium but to ALSO have upsells.
- Why new customers aren't bothered about your SKY HIGH prices (even if you charge WAY more than your compeition)
- Why you get more from a consultation day with Dom, than you can from 3 years with an 'average' pet business gooroo
- Why you need a plan for success, and clarity about what YOU want from your business
And much more...
