Selling in a Pro Horse Services Internet auction is a great way to expose your Yearling to buyers from around the World, without having to leave your ranch or farm. Pro Horse Services is the Industry Leader in Internet horse auctions, having sold 1,281 horses for $4,124,900. Horses have sold to buyers across the United States, Canada and Mexico, as well as, Europe and South America. The company will place an emphasis on helping sellers get their yearlings sold through this auction.
The presentation a seller makes for their auction entry has a large bearing on how well the horse will sell. With Internet horse auctions, the photos and videos are very important. The objective is to show potential buyers what they would see if they came to your farm. Attractive photos showing the horse’s conformation from all four sides will let the bidder see the legs, feet and overall structure. A good marketing video will show enough of the horse moving at all three gaits long enough for a buyer to evaluate and appreciate the quality of movement. For Pleasure prospects showing the horse in the video similar to how it would show in a longe line class will be good for potential buyers.
Giving accurate information about a horse helps make a buyer feel comfortable about bidding a higher price. The entry forms for a Pro Horse Services Internet auction ask the seller questions that will provide buyers with the animal’s health history as well information on disposition and handling.
