Profitable Horseman Workshop

How To Run A Profitable Horse Business
5 Business Strategies You Can Use Today
To Put More Money In Your Pocket

March 17, 2011 in Lexington KY

With an improving economy and the certainty of spring weather to stir interest in the horse community, creating and putting into action your very own business strategies should be at the very top of your to-do list.

One of the top reasons horse business owners struggle with profitability is their lack of a strategic plan crafted for their own personal use.

  • Copying the competition is not a strategic plan.
  • Discounting your prices is not a strategic plan.
  • Advertising and hoping is not a strategic plan.

A strategic plan includes:

  • Your Three Year Vision and  One Year Business Plan
  • Your  Business Financial Model for Better Profit
  • Your 12 Month Marketing Plan
  • Your Team, part time or full time, to leverage your time and effectiveness
  • Your Time Management Goals for a balance between work and play in your life

This is a live workshop to help you with the specifics of the business half of your horse business. Whether you’re in business now or planning to start one, you’ll walk away from this one day workshop with your very own strategy in a three ring binder for operating a profitable horse business. No need to scribble hundreds of notes on a pad, you’ll get a three ring binder with forms and worksheets to help you get your strategies in writing instantly.

Workshop Attendees Will Receive This Free Strategy Notebook to Simplify The Process Of Creating A Business Strategy and Plan.
