Suzanne Clothier Presents: However we may define it, here’s the reality: We can get frustrated and confused when a dog doesn’t (can’t?) focus, or won’t give us his attention no matter how much we know or how good our timing may be.

The unpredictability of what may be coming into your facility and how it will enter leaves many of us walking in first thing in the morning with no idea how to plan our day. Animal welfare, just like any other business, needs to be able to have some method of planning for what is coming so that we can ensure we have what we need to handle the situation. We all know emergencies arise and we are all masters at flying by the seat of our pants, but are we doing that more than we need to?

Virox Presents: There is a fundamental mistake that we all too often make when thinking about websites: we speak to the wrong part of the brain. You might think that a pet owner is on your website to ask questions such as “who are you, what do you do, and where do you do it?” – but the real question they are asking is much older… “can I trust you?” In order to attract more high quality clients, we must turn our attention towards the limbic system; the part of the brain that regulates emotions and social relationships. In this webinar, you will learn a fundamentally different way of looking at your website, and it just might change everything about your strategy.
