If you want to build a high value horse business, read this.

Most of us in this industry got into our work with horses for the same core reasons. To do the deepest, most impactful work we're capable of. To serve the clients and horses that we're truly called to serve, at the level we know we're capable of serving them at. To be paid fairly for the quality of the work we bring. To build a business that supports our family and our life without demanding we sacrifice one for the other.

For us, that's the standard we hold ourselves to. Not the exception.

But most horse professionals in this industry never build a business that actually allows them to live up to those standards. Not because they're not capable. Not because they don't have the skill or the work ethic. Not because they don't care enough about their clients or their horses.

The real reason most professionals never build their business to that level is because no one has ever shown them how.

We are going to change that next Wednesday, August 12.

I want to invite you to join us for the High Value Horse Business LIVE Workshop.

One workshop. One day. Done virtually so you can join from wherever you are.

I'm going to teach you the exact structure of building a high value horse business, top to bottom. The offer. The pricing. The positioning. The client attraction. The delivery. The systems that make the whole thing run well.

This isn't for beginners looking for the basics. It's for established horse professionals delivering high quality results who are ready to add $100,000 or more to their business in the next 12 months.

You'll leave with a real plan for your specific business, direct coaching from me on your specific situation, and the High Value Horse Business Playbook to keep building from long after the workshop.

If this is your kind of workshop, grab your seat before they fill up.

The horse industry needs its best professionals at their best.

Want to spend the Winter in Texas Training Horses at a World Class Facility, Elevating Your Horsemanship & Taking Your Business to the Next Level??

Last Sunday I put some feelers out and the response was overwhelming, humbling and exciting from yall.

So we got the details put together!

There is an application process. Our priority is not to gate keep but to ensure this is a top tier experience and ROI for the selected trainers. Also this is at our private facility, where our horses, our family, our businesses and life happens. So it’s critical we open the gates for the right individuals.

If you’d like more info, check the comments for access to the details & application.

The last 2.5yrs we’ve been milking sheep. Yes… sheep.

I had no idea people even did that until my wife said so. She was right (again) and 3 weeks later, after a bunch of research, we had our first few dairy sheep.

Since then they’ve been an incredible blessing to our family. The milk is truly- the champagne of milk, and I do fancy myself as a lifetime milk connoisseur.

There’s some pretty cool facts such as sheep milk has TWICE the protein per cup 🤯

When something is such a blessing in our life like these sheep have been, Maredith and I start asking ourselves how we can share that with others.

We’ve been working on something pretty neat that I look forward to sharing with you soon.

Until then enjoy the lamb spam cause who doesn’t love baby sheep

I was sitting in the arena one evening just finishing a ride on this little dun filly trying to find the words for the mission and conviction I felt in my heart.

I had spent many early mornings, late nights and hot afternoons pondering this same thing… but that evening the words were given to me.

“Educating Horses and People with a Lifetime in Mind”.

That was it. Simple and clear yet rooted in the belief that it’s not just what we do, it’s how we do it.

At the time the pinnacle I was striving for was to be traveling and teaching clinics helping more horses and people develop deeper skills that would foster safer, more enjoyable partnerships for both the horse and the human while being able to on and accomplish their goals whether that was high level performance/sport horses or heading down the trail.

As things should, things evolved.

The opportunity to travel all across the country and teach became a reality. The invitations to major expos followed. And while what we did continued to evolve, the mission to help more horses and people has never left the forefront.

Along the way a mentor and business coach challenged me.

“If you’re serious about helping more horses and people, the way you can truly help the most is by helping horse professionals. If you help one run their business better, think of how many horses, clients and students they’ll be able to serve. And if you help 10, 20 or 100 that will be far more horses and people than you could ever help just on your own.”

He was right.. but that wasn’t my plan…

But I knew if I was serious about my mission, my purpose, I knew what I had to do.

Along the journey I’ve learned one of the most freeing things we can do is surrender. To let go of trying to figure it all out or make it happen on our own and to focus on doing what we know we are called to do. To surround ourselves with others who truly want to help and serve. To dedicate ourselves to truly serving others with quality. And to let go of the things we don’t have control over.

Over the years of helping horse business owners we’ve been blessed to see incredible transformations in peoples lives both personally and professionally.

From pros being on the brink of burnout to having a business that they love again and that is actually providing for them.

To others going all in on their calling and serving their people and horses in incredibly deep and impactful ways.

And yes even watching those committed to the highest quality results harvest the fruit of high profits within their business giving them the ability to better provide and give back to all those around them.

It’s never been about the money.
It’s always been about fulfilling the calling we were created and put here for.

We’re responsible for being great stewards of what we’ve been blessed with.

I will continue to do everything I can to improve the lives of every person we work with and they serve through their business and to ultimately make this industry better and stronger for generations to come.

I firmly believe a rising tide raises all ships and…

Together We Rise.

Quick heads up - we're kicking off a free Marketing Workshop in about 2 hours, and I want to make sure you don't miss it if it's something that could actually serve you.

It's for established horse professionals who are serious about turning their content into the right clients and real cash flow. Two days, live only, no replays.

Day 1 (today, 10:30am CST) - I'm walking you through the exact marketing frameworks we use with our $40,000 private coaching clients. The same frameworks they've used to build six and seven figure horse businesses. The metrics, the content architecture, the foundation that actually produces clients who value your work.

Day 2 (tomorrow, 10:30am CST) - We take everything from Day 1 and apply it directly to your business in a live working session. You'll walk away with your own custom Marketing Roadmap - your numbers, your content plan, the specific step by step path you can start executing Thursday morning.

This is not a surface level webinar. It's practical, tactical, and built for horse pros who want a business that actually supports the work they're called to do, the lifestyle they want, and the family they're building it for.

If that's you, I'd love to have you join us.

The access links and workshop resources are inside the Horse Business Builders Community. Join here and you'll have everything you need:

See you in a couple hours.

If you’re a horse professional who is highly skilled and able to teach well, courses & memberships are one of the biggest opportunities to reach and serve more students and build a highly profitable side of your business.

BUT!

Many don’t understand the actual math and structure that it takes to build a successful course or membership. Most get emotionally excited by how much money they could make not realizing that they often will still end up in the same bucket as service providers- overworked & underpaid.

Just this afternoon I had a call with a horseman and she has created multiple fantastic courses that can help many horses and people. But…

1) She’s struggled to get students enrolled.

2) she didn’t realize that even if she did get her courses filled- her offer structure was going to create more work than was sustainable & it was packed with so much stuff it was going to create huge buyers remorse, the money she would’ve made because of her pricing structure wouldn’t be enough to make it sustainable and she’d be constantly chasing the next sale..

So started build a roadmap that was designed to ensure
- the students could achieve the end objective through her courses
- that her offer structure gave the students what they wanted & needed while still being sustainable for her
- her pricing structure would NOT leave her chasing the next sale but it would actually allow her to serve students longer, create recurring revenue for her business and make more educational content more accessible for her students.

In order to serve your students, your horses, your clients and even your family- you must intentionally design the structure of your business and your offers and use the strategies that will allow you to put serving them at the forefront while making sure the business creates the results that you need to keep serving them.

If you’d like to set up a strategy call to talk through the structure & strategies that could serve your business, your students and yourself best to get you from where you’re at right now to where you want to be and how we could help, I’ll drop a link in the comments.

a good day to be born ❤️

Last two ewes lambed today finishing out our spring lambing with our dairy sheep. And we’re thankful to have a fridge full of delicious raw milk.

Twice the protein. Twice the minerals. Twice as good.

God is Great!

“To keep a child or horse from experiencing pressure, difficulty and being uncomfortable is to not prepare them for the realities of the world and is one of the most selfish acts a parent or owner can do.”
