Notes from Chris

Episode 2124
Today’s caller wants to offer dog training services by Zoom! How else can you describe it—it’s a pretty simple idea.

These days, of course, all sorts of things happen by Zoom. Even as the pandemic has winded down in lots of ways, many people are reluctant to return to work. In some cases they’re going back to work to have Zoom meetings. In other cases they’ve just moved away from their primary city and are working remotely.

So we’re all used to Zoom and other videoconferencing, but will it work for dog training? I actually think it’s pretty interesting, but let’s hear first from our caller.

“Hi there, this is Sophia from Madison, Wisconsin. As more and more services went virtual during the pandemic, I started thinking about my skills as an animal trainer. In some ways, the idea of Zoom meetings came about due to the need of physical distancing, but I think the greater part of it is the chance to be less limited by distance from clients who are far away.

I keep thinking there has to be a way I can use this skill to work with people anywhere. My day job keeps me tied down, so I can't travel that much, and I also have to work normal hours. But I have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends to see a different dog owner every day by Zoom.

Do you think people would go for this? Thanks in advance for any tips or advice you might have.”
