School is a great place to start, but if
you aren't inclined to do a lot of reading and studying other trainers, you've pigeon-holed yourself into one style. You want to teach others in the method(s) you are most comfortable with, especially the people. I'm just starting out on my own and don't have the luxury of being able to go for formal training, but I've put together a unique soft touch style of my own that shows a great deal of promise. You can see the first steps I've taught my most recent guy at Youtube.com/Todax69. Poor videos and taken right after learning each new task. Remember that after teaching the skill, it takes practice to achieve consistency. That part isn't shown yet.
Also, I don't like the repetition thing about repeating the most important issues to each new owner, so I've written up cheat sheets to hand out to them. They should be straight forward, concise, and broken down into short packets for whatever you're trying to fix or teach. I also have a basic sheet that simply tells each person the basic knowledge for success, such as; being the pack leader and how, den mentality, pack mentality, etc...
Good luck on your venture.
