Pet Boarding and Daycare Podcast with Dominic Hodgson

Ep. 97 – Mission Enrich: Inside the Book Opening a New Chapter for Dog Daycare Innovators


Listen Later

Ever thought about writing a book to elevate your authority… but convinced yourself you’re “not ready”?

Wondering how a simple paper-and-ink asset can transform your marketing, attract affluent clients, and position your facility miles ahead of the competition?

And did you get a copy of Mission Enrich, Dom’s brand-new business parable that launched at the Hershey Expo and is already pulling in glowing reviews?

In this week’s episode, host Dom Hodgson gives you an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at his tenth book — Mission Enrich — and breaks down why book-writing is one of the smartest strategic moves any dog daycare or pet resort owner can make. 

Dom explains how creating a book becomes a 24/7 salesperson for your business, why affluent dog owners gravitate toward experts with published works, and how a well-written book instantly elevates your perceived expertise in a way social media never will. He also talks openly about the creative challenges of moving from “how-to” books to story-driven content and why stepping outside your comfort zone is the gateway to bigger opportunities.

You’ll also hear Dom read the full preface and opening chapter of Mission Enrich, plus he takes a look at a few Amazon reviews from early readers who’ve already put the book into action.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

  • Why Write a Book? – The overlooked marketing power of a published book and why it instantly elevates your status.
  • The Spirit of Canis – A first-ever audio preview of Dom’s new parable Mission Enrich and the ancient bond it explores.
  • Expert Positioning for Pet Pros – How a book becomes your business card, your authority signal, and your most persuasive sales tool.
  • Standing Out in a Crowded Market – Why affluent dog owners seek out the experts… and how a book makes you the obvious choice.
  • Comfort Zones Block Creativity – What Dom learned moving from how-to books to story-driven writing — and why growth feels uncomfortable.
