  • The ability to inspire and motivate yourself and others.
  • Computer skills and the ability to utilize Google Drive programs, Facebook, and other common software.
  • Camera and computer skills with the ability to capture and edit dog training videos (we teach video editing techniques, but general competency skills are required for long-term success).
  • Sales and marketing experience and/or understanding.

AVAILABILITY:

  • The ability to work during peak traffic periods during week days and weekends.
  • A flexible schedule and the ability to chip in when work flow or your local team of trainers needs more help.
  • Schedule has a ton of flexibility, all while doing something you love!
  • Occasional travel.

TRAINER CERTIFICATION:

  • Must be able to attend and pass a 30-day unpaid certification course in Sweetwater, TN, before you will be released to work with clients one-on-one. (Lodging will be provided).

COMPENSATION:

  • The right person can earn $50,000 annually to start, earning upwards of $70,000 annually after year one.
  • Earning potential varies based on trainer’s personal drive.
