061 - Photographer Michael Puck feels deeply indebted to the dog who saved his life. And his ambitious pay-it-forward plans, combined with decades of experience as a "people scientist," have led to a dramatically different—but wildly successful—pet photography business model. What's more, he's inviting you, dear listener, to try it out for yourself.   

What To Listen For: 

• Lessons learned from leading a Human Insights department
• The incredible social catalyst effect of dogs (the stats are eye-opening!)
• What it means to pull versus push when making sales 
• How to leverage your existing connections to avoid cold calling
• The biggest obstacle standing between you and a $10,000 sale
