3 Reasons Why Your Husband Won’t Like Our Dog Training Services

Here at Dog Works Training Company, we get calls every day from people that want to get their dog trained. These calls usually go well. We address their pain points and their struggles and explain how one of our training programs can help them, until almost at the very end of the call the dreaded, let me talk to my husband response.

This is common in all sorts of sales scenarios. Not just in dog training. It is known as the potential partner objection.

When a potential customer says “let me talk to my husband” in a sales situation, the best response is to acknowledge their need for discussion, reassure them that it’s completely understandable, and then ask if there’s a specific aspect of the product or service they’d like to discuss with their partner, while offering to schedule a follow-up call to include both parties; this helps you understand their concerns and potentially address them proactively before the next conversation.

Well today we are giving you 3 Reasons Why Your Husband Won’t Like Our Dog Training Service and how we can help your dog’s training a little easier.  

Hello and welcome to Dog Works Radio. I am your host Michele Forto and I am also the lead trainer of Alaska Dog Works. Here we help you and your dog have a better relationship. Today we are talking all about state dogs. Today we talking about 3 Reasons Why Your Husband Won’t Like Our Dog Training Service and how we can help your dog’s training a little easier.  

When it comes to dog training, every family member has their own perspective—especially your husband. While you might be excited about enrolling your furry friend in a training program, he may have reservations. In this blog post [podcast], we’ll explore three common reasons why your husband might be hesitant about our dog training service, and how understanding these concerns can lead to a better decision for your family.

Concerns About Time Commitment

One of the primary reasons your husband may be skeptical about dog training services is the perceived time commitment. Many dog training programs require regular attendance and practice sessions, which can feel overwhelming, especially for busy families.

What We Can Do:

To address this concern, highlight the flexibility of our training programs. Our services offer a variety of options, including our award-winning Peak Experience Program, private sessions, and even online training. Emphasize how these choices can fit into your family’s busy schedule. Sharing success stories about other families, that can be found on Google, our Facebook and our website, who have found time-efficient ways to incorporate training can also help alleviate his worries.

Doubts About Effectiveness

Your husband might question whether a professional dog training service will truly make a difference. With so many training methods and philosophies out there, it’s understandable that he may feel uncertain about the effectiveness of our approach.

What We Can Do:

Provide him with detailed information about our training methods and success rates. Share testimonials from satisfied clients and before-and-after stories that showcase real results. Highlight our trainers’ credentials and experience, emphasizing that our techniques are based on positive reinforcement, which is proven to be effective for long-term behavior change.

Financial Concerns

Another factor that may be causing hesitation is the cost associated with professional dog training services. Your husband may be worried about the financial investment and whether it’s worth it in the long run.

What We Can Do:

Discuss the value of investing in professional training compared to the potential costs of not addressing behavioral issues. Explain how our training can prevent problems that may lead to expensive solutions down the line, such as property damage or vet visits due to stress-related health issues. Additionally, consider presenting our various pricing plans, including packages and promotions that make our services more affordable.

Understanding your husband’s concerns about our dog training service can pave the way for a more harmonious decision-making process. By addressing issues related to time commitment, effectiveness, and financial concerns, you can help him see the benefits of enrolling your dog in a professional training program.

At the end of the day, investing in your dog’s training not only enhances their behavior but also strengthens the bond within your family. So, take the time to discuss these points with your husband and work together towards a solution that benefits everyone—including your K9 Buddy!
