How to Sell a Horse:: Trying to sell or re-home a non-performance horse in the current market can be a challenge. There seems to be more horses than there are buyers/owners. Sellers need to make a nice presentation of the horse they are selling but the ads are poorly written, important information is left out and there is either no photo or bad photos. I offer to make you a web page that features only your horse with 4 photos and unlimited text space and put it up on a separate page on my website to help you sell your horse. I can take the photos, help you write the text, help you put online classified ads up, and make a webpage that showcases your horse.
Example webpage for selling your horse:: Palomino Quarter Horse
Thoroughbred Filly

Have you wished that you could put a web address in your classified ads, just like the show barns?: Having a web address helps the buyers get more info about your horse instantly without having to wait for you to respond to e-mails.
Do you spend time e-mailing additional photos of your horse to perspective buyers?: I find it very convenient to have a web page on a horse I have for sale. Buyers can see the whole story on the horse and see lots of photos.
Do you want a lot of value for your one-time $75.00 payment?: Your site stays up until the sale is completed!
Now that's a lot of value.

All you need to do is:

E-mail 4 photos of your horse to the e-mail address below.
And the description/text you want.
The page will go up on the web when I receive your check. After you view your page, a minor change can be made.
The site stays up until your sale is completed.
Only one horse per full size web page.
One time charge of $75.00.

How to use your new web site:

Make your classified ad do double duty. Put the web address of your new site in your classified ads.

Advertise in a publication.

Send your new web address to perspective buyers instead of emailing individual photos to them.

Additionally, place listings in online breed web sites. These are often free and since they give you so few words, put your web address in the ad so buyers will get more information about your horse.

Hi Jennifer! I have good news...a wonderful couple came today from Florida and bought Guerrero. I know that your web page played a very important role in helping sell him! It enabled people to see him in various pictures, and the combination of the written text and pics was perfect. Please feel free to use me as a reference. Andrea G.
