So recently I became aware of the Confident Rider Project.  This particular project runs for six months and costs to take part in.  It is carried out via free resources on a website, a Facebook group where participants can interact and one on one sessions over Skype or Zoom.  It seems to me there are a lot of people taking part and I got to thinking about horse programs as a form of passive income.  Sure, this particular program isn’t fully passive – there are one on one sessions that will take up your time as the creator.

Horse Programs as a Passive Income

But what if you could create a program (or multiple horse programs) that pretty much run by themselves for a set time frame?  Your topic could relate to horse riding, handling horses safely, breeding horses, writing about them or even photographing them.

As the program creator, you can create a heap of resources.  These can include audio files, videos, .pdf files, worksheets, activities, a Facebook group, etc.  These resources are made available to subscribers at set times throughout their program.  For example you could release a new resource and task to complete each week or month.  If you’re able to set up things to automatically release after participants reach a particular point (like finish watching one of your videos), then it can automatically progress without you needing to do much.

All you have to do is create the content and find a platform to release it on.  Then you promote your program and determine how you will receive payments.  From a specific date/s people can have information released to them (like in email automation).  They are encouraged to run through all that your program has to offer.  Of course at the end you can ask for feedback/testimonials.  And you can also promote other products / projects that you have available for sale.  What do you think?

How many of you as children rode around on your father’s back? Or perhaps as a parent you’ve played this game with your children? Well someone has gone and cashed in on the idea, creating the Pony Up Daddy Saddles. This is a unique horse related idea that I think many parents will appreciate. And to top it off, I am sure the kids will love the idea of Pony Up Daddy Saddles, too.

As it states on their website:

“Pony Up Daddy Saddles have revolutionized the living room pony ride. Anyone that has played the part of the pony knows how important a handle is for the child to hold onto. Without the Pony Up Daddy your child will be tugging on your shirt, your hair, ears, neck chains, or anything else they can get a hold of. These were the exact issues we faced when designing the first Pony Up Daddy for our own kids. We needed something other than “the pony” for the kids to hang onto. We set out to make an easy to use, durable, comfortable, high quality saddle that could take anything the children could throw at it. The Pony Up Daddy has been designed by parents for parents. We hope your family will enjoy our saddle as much as we have.”

Now these saddles that are designed to fit mums or dads come in a variety of colours and designs. There are solid colours of red, pink, blue or black. Or if you’re after a pattern, you can get one in camouflage or even leopard. If you head on over to their website, you can see photos and even videos to display the toy at work.

Now this is another unique idea that’s been turned into a saleable product. Do you have an idea that might benefit others that you can cash in on for 2018?
