It is divided into the major sections ofa business plan, then each component of each section is discussed in detail with equine-specific examples. Throughout each section, you will find questions to ask yourself in a green box and spaces to answer the questions and take notes. At the end of each section is a blank page to begin outlining the section for your business plan.  \nFor additional help and ideas, a sample business plan was created, covering each of the sections in this workbook. The example business is a 30-acre boarding, lesson, and training horse farm called Silver Snaffle Farm. Portions ofthe sample plan are inserted into this workbook in the appropriate sections.  \nThis type of business was chosen for the example because it reflects a common horse business in New Jersey. However, the workbook is designed to be useful for other types of equine businesses too, such as feed and supply stores, farriers and other equine service providers, hay growers, and producers of goods. Examples are provided to explain how each component of the business plan can be applied to any type of business. Some components will be more important to some business types than others, and some may not have any relevence at all.  \nCustomize your plan to fit your business.  \nThis workbook is by no means all-inclusive. It is highly recommended that each equine business owner research these topics, sometimes with the help of a professional. There are several websites dedicated to providing business-related information for horse businesses, which are listed in the Bibliography and provided on the CD.  \nBUSINESS PLANNING  \nIt has been said that managers who fail to plan, plan to fail. A plan is necessary for management to be effective. An effective manager guides others in following that plan. Management is not just about getting from point A to point B. It is about combining your business resources and operating environment. The operating environment consists of things like the economy and federal, state, and county regulations as well as local ordinances. The results of the business plan determine how effectively its objectives were met and also forms the basis for the next planning stage. Managing a horse business is a continuing cycle of evaluating, planning and putting the plans into action.  \nSuccess in a horse business requires both technical and business management skills. Managers who are evaluating whether or not to adopt a new grazing system, bedding type, or training technique must evaluate not only the impact on the technical aspects (horse health, fly control, client satisfaction, etc.) but also the effects these have on the bottom line. Some equine businesses who had good technical managers have failed because of poo","cbCainN6dQ0tOOBi","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainN6dQ0tOOBi","pdf",4232332,96,"English","# Introduction\n## Business Planning\n## Executive Summary\n## Business Description\n## Strategic Plan: Business and Industry Profiles\n## Production and Operations Plan\n## Market Analysis: Marketing Plan\n## Management and Personnel Plan\n## Financial Plan\n## Bibliography","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this horse business planning workbook?\",\"answer\":\"It helps a horse business owner write a business plan by walking through major business-plan sections and explaining each component with equine-specific examples.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the workbook structured to support drafting a plan?\",\"answer\":\"Each section contains self-reflection questions with spaces to answer and take notes, and ends with a blank page to outline that section for the owner’s business plan.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the role of the included sample business plan?\",\"answer\":\"A sample plan for a 30-acre boarding, lesson, and training farm is inserted throughout the workbook to show how components can be applied and customized for the reader’s own business type.\"}]","Horse Business Planning Workbook - Complete Workbook, Second Printing - Final | PDF",1789174343,34]
