Pet Tech® Opportunity:
This is a business opportunity, and you will become a Pet Tech® member. That means you will have access to an expanded profile page, and you can set up your classes wherever and whenever you want. Within a few guidelines, you set the pricing for your classes, and no portion of that class fee is paid back to Pet Tech® Corporate. There is no limit on how many times you can teach per year, and we don’t assign territories. As a licensee, you are required to teach the Pet Tech® standards and guidelines we train on, and you will be authorized to use the program when teaching your classes. We keep our rules to a minimum so you can get out and teach while ensuring our program is consistently taught worldwide to current standards.
To maintain Pet Tech® standardization, each student must receive a PetSaver™ Packet. You pay a yearly Licensee Membership fee of $175 and teach at least 2 classes per year with a minimum of 6 students per class. We know you will probably teach more, but we keep that requirement low as some Instructors are just training staff.
Class Size is limited to 12 students per Instructor. Materials for a class size of twelve (students working in groups of 3) are as follows: PowerPoint Presentation, 4 stuffed dogs, 4 Bleeding & Muzzling Kits (1 muzzle, 1 rolled gauze, 3-4 x4 gauze pads, 1 triangular bandage, and 1 Tourni-stik), 12 PetSaver™ Student Packets. Estimated start-up costs $500-$1000.
As a reminder, there is an additional $175 annual license fee due upon enrollment, payable directly to Pet Tech, Inc., and no refunds are offered after your ticket purchase. If requested 14 days in advance, we may transfer your ticket to another name.
