    Michael Lederer

    I build digital products, websites and workflows for people who work with animals – as someone who implements, not a coach. At home I train mantrailing with Petra and Siegfried, so I know how little time is left next to working with animals.

    Questions

    Frequently asked questions

    I find asking for referrals really uncomfortable – is the course still for me?

    Yes. Module 3 clarifies the right moment (right after a visible success) and gives you ready-made phrasing for five touchpoints. You're not asking for a favor – you're giving your client a reason.

    Does this work without a large base of regular clients?

    Yes, but with a different focus: without regulars, start with module 2 (wow moments, Google reviews) and module 4 (partner networks with vets, pet shops, colleagues). The referral program from module 3 comes next.

    Is this legally sound – reviews, rewards, contact data?

    The course explicitly covers the 2026 legal framework: what's allowed for testimonials and Google reviews, how rewards and giveaways must be designed, and where the line is when passing on contact data.

    What's the difference between the workbook and accompaniment?

    With the workbook you implement on your own. With accompaniment we work on it together in sessions, and on request we can implement it completely for you. We work out which way fits in the intro call.

    What happens in the intro call?

    30 minutes, free and no obligation. You tell us where you stand, we look at what you really need – sometimes that's just the workbook. Michael gets back to you within one business day with a suggested time.
