Client Attraction 101: Lessons Learned From The Dog Park [Video]

If you made client attraction as easy as dogs playing, life would be grand! Attention all animal lovers: don't you love how they don't obsess, but just do?! Mr. Poodle and I paid morning visit to the dog park and I couldn't help but notice how the puppy playing patters were so similar to your client attraction and brand building. Watch the video to hear me out... The dogs pre-determine who they want to play with. They select the pooches who are their type and ignore the others. Not much different than how clients, customers, and followers decide if they will listen to you, buy from you, or just past you by. Isn't that what client attraction is about? I'd

Backstage Beauty: Westminster Dog Show Behind the Scenes

 Gettting their gorgeous behind the scenes at the Westminster Dog Show. You know how much I love poodles and dogs in general. It is New York Fashion Week (have you been following my trend spotlights?) and you would expect backstage beauty to involve models with hair and back-up how to's, right? Well, it will. But I want to take a break from clothes and show you some of the best coiffed at the 138th Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. Afterall, these fur babies spend as much time being tzjujed up as a celeb for the red carpet.  Hubs & I popped by earlier today to see the poodles (of course) and couldn't resist some of the other gorgeous creatures getting their glam on in

Looking Like Your Dog Is So Chic in Paris

A mademoiselle and her pooch in Paris Only in Paris when you look like your dog, it will be chic! I know I will get an argument by dog lovers from other places (particularly from Sharon and her love of French poodles), but I say no one loves their dogs more than Parisians. I back up my statement with the fact that dogs are allowed almost anywhere in Paris- at the butcher, the baker, restaurants, the metro, parks, art galleries, food shops, boutiques, and dog grooming salons. >> SHOP: Need to be discreet?

Dressing for the dogs meets style and function Dog Walking Jacket does everything but wag the dog...Dressing for the dogs meets style and function from Let's Go Design I know, a dog walking jacket does sound kooky! But if you are a pet owner who is into dog walks that consist of more than a once around the block quickie, take note... Typically, walking Fido involves grabbing the first item of clothing staring back at you from atop the chair, a pair of dark glasses to cover those unmade eyes, and a jacket with pockets big enough to hold some pooper bags. Rush out, 1-2-3, do the dirty deed, and be glad that the paparazzi could care less about your

The Poodle Says…

It's All About Doggie Style You're dolled up, so why expect poochie to have style that's for the dogs? We're not talking about fussy leashes and glamourella collars that doggie darling feels too overdone to catch a ball in. Or, that your he-man honey feels totally ridiculous being near. We are insisting upon whimsical wag wear that's as adorable as the tail-wagger herself. The dogshop at Old Navy has the sweetest bow-wow accessories at a mutt of a price. Now, there's no excuse to dog out on doggie style…. Arrrrufff!
