About the Author
Hi, I’m Kylie, founder of Crossbow Equine.
​
After starting my first horse business right out of high school, I quickly realized that the horse industry rarely prepares people for the business side of horses. Contracts, liability, client expectations, and business structure can be overwhelming when you're just trying to do what you love.
Today, through Crossbow Equine, I work with equine businesses and horse owners across the industry through sales, media, marketing, and consulting. This guide was created to help other horse professionals avoid some of the early mistakes that many of us had to learn the hard way. Hope you enjoy!
