How much of your day/week is related to horses?
My business is 7 days a week. In between dealing with current clients I am always looking for business opportunities with new clients. I am the Australasian Licencee for Essence Equine International.I am involved in the supplement (Stem Cell Nutrition) industry for elite performance animal athletes.
What is it exactly that you do?
I identify trainers with thoroughbreds with high ability that have challenges. This can be identifiable challenges or not identifiable challenges. For example, a horse while competing, may not be performing at its best. It may be respiratory issues, recovery, hoof problems or even attitudinal issues. I discuss these issues with the trainer and provide a 100% natural solution for these issues.
Welcome to the world of Stem Cell supplements. The health, nutritional and sporting supplement industry for both human and animal industry is worth billions of dollars each year. While most of that is attributed to sports drinks, protein powders and general health supplements such as fish oil and multivitamins the next dominant force in the market is going to be Stem Cell Nutrition. I am privileged to have this opportunity.
In this field of work, is it possible to be a full time professional and earning a liveable income?
The short answer is yes. I have a Business Degree and almost 40 years experience in the racing industry.
What are the general steps taken to be employed in such a role?
I first started by providing my horses with this product some 16 years ago. The trainer was charged with providing me with his observational notes. From there the industry has boomed. I am proud to say that I am at the forefront of the industry in Australasia.
Favourite horse memory?
Without a doubt winning a “Black Type” race over the Spring Carnival in Melbourne. This horse was the first horse on our supplement in 1998. I’ll never forget it.
Future goals?
To continue to develop the business by spreading the word on Stem Cell Nutrition.
Best thing about your sport/profession?
Experiencing the thrill of of identifying an opportunity and watching it succeed.
