Description

A preview of this week's show:

  • Discovery day for people to work for a day if they like it, then a two-week trial period, before hiring - Turnover has to do with culture
  • Franchising help
    Focusing on processes and the power of linear workflows
    Death to micromanaging
  • "You can't make a zebra a racehorse"

Ryan Wimpey is the founder of Tip Top K9 Dog Training. Over the last 18 years, Ryan has personally trained over 5,000 dogs and has a passion for both training dogs and teaching others how to train. 

Despite being obsessed with dogs and wanting to spend all day training them, he currently manages three businesses: Tip Top K9 Franchising, which boasts 20 locations across the United States; Tip Top K9 Tulsa, an Oklahoma-based dog training facility with a staff of 32 people; and Tip Top International, a wholesaler of pet products.
