The Equine Entrepreneur: Launching Your Horse Career Business
Owning your own horse business could be the ultimate goal of many people entering the horse industry, which this has been included in our ‘Careers in the Horse Industry Series’.
Having your own horse business is selling goods to, or providing a service for owners and horses. As a example, an Agistment/Boarding/Livery Stable cares for horses on behalf of their owners, while Studs breed horses and care for breeding horses. Riding Schools/Equestrian Centres, teach people to ride horses safely and correctly, and Tack Shops, Feed Stores, self saddles etc.., and feed, to owners for their horses.
There are many other equine specialist who take care of horse health, while others specialise in taking care of horses.
Whatever horse business you have, for the best possible outcome before you start, you should have a thorough knowledge with experience and qualifications in that area, or employ someone who does!
To have your own business you will also need knowledge of:
- Management – longer term planning and management of goals, management of people who could be staff, clients, suppliers
- Finance – not just paying bills, but budgeting and forecasting and management of cash flow as you know that your can remain financially viable in quiet times.
- Marketing and Promotion – Developing strategies so people know how you can help them and their horses.
- Registrations and other Legal Matters – staying on top of latest industry developments and also staying compliant with your local council and legal matters.
Plan you business well. You could look back to it being the best decision you ever made!
