I had such a great conversation with Candace D'Agnolo on the Pet Boss Podcast! 🎙️
We talked about why communication skills matter just as much as knowing pet nutrition and behavior - and how the right words can literally cut the drama and stop the misunderstandings in your pet business.
Here's what we covered:
⭐ Why a 3-minute coaching conversation NOW saves you from correcting the same mistake 12 more times this month
⭐ How written standards mean you're building consistency (not just "reminding people" over and over)
⭐ Why feedback is a gift, not a punishment - and how it prevents bad reviews before they happen
⭐ The communication toolbox philosophy: You can't build a house with just a hammer, and you can't handle every conversation with the same default style
If you've ever felt like you're stuck in a loop of repeating the same corrections with your team, this episode will give you practical tools you can use immediately.
