    In short

    “Pricing & Positioning for Animal Professionals” is an online course for dog trainers and self-employed animal professionals who want to set their prices on solid ground. It covers hourly-rate calculation, package offers, positioning and price increases. The regular price is 99 € one-time.

    Honestly …

    Does this sound familiar?

    You're afraid clients will leave if you raise prices.

    You sell single sessions instead of packages.

    Discounts and exceptions eat up your profit.

    It doesn't have to stay this way.

    Pricing & positioning for animal professionals shows you how to change it.

    Your path

    Three steps to the result

    No theory loops. You implement right away.

    1

    Understand

    You see exactly where things are stuck for you – no jargon, with examples from the animal industry.

    2

    Implement

    You apply it right away with ready-made templates. No theory overload, just step by step.

    3

    Sell

    You see the result in your everyday work: more inquiries, better prices, less stress.

    Michael Lederer teaching Pricing & positioning for animal professionals

    „Preise, die deine Arbeit tragen – und eine Position im Markt, in der niemand mehr über den Preis diskutiert.“

    What changes for you

    Today
    • You're afraid clients will leave if you raise prices.
    • You sell single sessions instead of packages.
    • Discounts and exceptions eat up your profit.
    After the course
    • You know your minimum hourly rate and your day rate – with real fixed costs, variable costs and target income
    • You have clear positioning: niche, USP and a positioning statement
    • You sell packages and subscriptions instead of single hours

    And after that?

    Many implement on their own. Others want someone by their side – or have it done for them. Both are possible once you're ready.

    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

    Is this a sales course or a pricing course?

    Both – in a clear order. The core is calculation (module 1), positioning (module 2) and pricing architecture (modules 3–4). The sales arguments, objection answers and phone script are built in as a bonus in module 5.

    Which animal professions is the course designed for?

    Dog schools and trainers, equine and animal physio, animal naturopaths, mobile pet care and all self-employed people in animal professions – the worked examples come from exactly these businesses, mobile and stationary alike.

    Are the figures up to date?

    All calculations are figured for 2026 – fixed costs, vehicle, insurance, software. Important: the worked examples are templates and don't replace tax or legal advice.

    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.
