Promoting your Curly Horse

The Ride-A-Curly Horse Contest has started with a bang and I am very encouraged and excited with this year's group. They are taking this promotioning of the curly horse seriously! Many are blogging regularly which is great and sharing photos, stories and good and bad experiences. ;-) Visit the website to see all the promoting they are doing!!!

The Curly World is a small one but if we work together we can make a huge difference. In the past it seemed that the only ones that had the "promoting the curly breed" hat on was the breeder. I know if we all band together, get our horses trained so we can get out and talk about them, that is going to get our breed noticed! I think it helps if we can all feel part of the whole scheme of things too. Just just living in our own backyard but thinking outside the box. I want to see the quality curly breeders endure for a long time and they need our help. I try to promote the bloodlines of my horses because I know them well....but I also promote the breed as a whole wherever I go. Embroidered apparel is a great way to make a statement in public without spending alot of money - you become a walking billboard. ;-) This is a bit of a shameless plug, but I wouldn't be in the embroidery business if I didn't believe in it. ;-) We promote our curlies here and also our business through embroidered t-shirts in the summer, embroidered fleece in the spring and fall and embroidered jackets in the winter. A great give away item for expos and fairs are embroidered caps with your embroidered logo on them.

Of course, you can always advertise on Curly Horse country too! We have some inexpensive ways to get your farm name out there and advertise your curly horses for sale. Advertising your Curly Horse here.

I now have an easy form you can fill out to list your curly horse with me. Curly Horse Ad Form
You can use this form for the $5.00 Photo ad and the $25.00 Star ad. The Curly Stallion ads and Business Ads you will have to contact me.

For those wanting to get out and show, do expos, we have super resources online to help you! I listed a great Expo Resource page with the help of fellow curly owners/breeders. Also, how to groom your curly for show is a great article for those wanting to get going in the show world.

I think that is probably enough curly tips for today!!! Get out there, enjoy your curlies and let me know if there is anything I can help you with!!
