CHFS Advertising Information
Thank you for your interest in advertising on my coloredhorsesforsale.com website. Any breed/gender is acceptable, as long as the horse is "colored" (not solid sorrel/chestnut/bay/brown). All inquiries will be directed to you, the seller. My site has been very successful since I started it in the summer of 2007 (feel free to scroll through the list of all the Sold horses at the bottom of the Home page.) We have exported many horses to international buyers as well, especially the rare champagnes which many have come to my site seeking. Listings will remain on my site up to 6 months, or until you tell me the horse is sold or you would like it removed. I am offering a variety of ad options/packages:

• Basic Sale Listing and Collage Ad - $35:

On my main Home page, I add your horse, its search criteria, thumbnail photo in results list, and create/add a custom photo collage in the slideshow. Included are the registered name, breed/year/color/gender, one line of text (whatever you think is most important to include), location, price, and link to horse's page. This Basic page will display the photo collage only (no additional photos), basic contact information (first name, phone number and/or Email link/button), one simple paragraph of text that you provide, a link to horse's pedigree on allbreedpedigree.com (if available), and a link to your website or an outside ad you have placed, if desired. Then for any outside ads (like equine.com) you place, you can use the collage ad I created for your horse, if desired. Please click to see an example.

• Basic plus More Photos/Info Page - Add $15 (total $50):

In addition to my Basic Listing with photo collage, I can also include up to 8 more photos (no captions) in simple slideshow format, a scanned pedigree file rather than link, if desired, and up to two simple paragraphs of text that you provide, plus registration number and height/weight if desired. Save yourself the time and hassle of emailing multiple photos and pedigree to multiple potential buyers. This option allows you to show them all in one place, as well as to provide some additional information to help avoid answering the same questions repeatedly. Please click to see an example.

• Basic plus Equine.com Premium Ad - Add $40 (total $75):

For extra exposure, I highly suggest outside advertising on one or more of the popular horse marketing sites that generate an incredible amount of daily traffic and site hits, in addition to my Basic Listing. Equine.com has been very successful for my clients in recent years. I can place an ad there for your horse (it allows up to 12 different photos or collages per ad) if desired. To place your own Premium Ad costs $30, so for $10 more toward my time, I will crop/resize/upload all your photos and place your ad for you if you don't want to place your own ad. They remain active for up to 6 months. This type of ad can really get your horse seen by a LOT of potential buyers quickly, and can work very well in combination with a Basic Listing on my site. I will also list your horse on at least one additional horse sales website at no charge, to help bring more traffic.

• Basic plus Full Page Detailed Listing - Add $65 (total $100):

To feature your horse most effectively and impressively, consider my Detailed Listing. In addition to the Basics, I will also build your horse a full page detailed ad on my site. This page can display all the photos (including individual captions you provide) of horse, siblings, sire, dam, scanned pedigree file, scanned test results, etc. - up to 18 total files. Also displayed are unlimited text writeup (whatever you desire and email to me) which can include registration number and height/weight, accomplishments, any links to video like youtube or to sire's website if desired, etc. I will also list your horse on at least two additional horse sales websites at no charge, to help bring more traffic. Please click to see an example.

• Updates and Renewals - As needed:

New photo shoot? Horse just took first at a big show? Training progress to announce? Want to freshen up or add to your current listing? I am available to make any desired updates to your ad quickly and affordably - typically within 2 business days. Flat rate of $5 per 10 minute increment, as often and as little or as much as you would like done. Additional 6-month Renewals without updates are also just half price after ad expiration.

• Sales Agent Services - Please Inquire:

I can provide assistance with contracts, PayPal payment acceptance, international sales/quarantine/export details, transportation arrangements, etc. as well if you need help in these areas. Fees vary based on my time spent helping you complete your sale. Commission if I send you the buyer myself is typically industry standard of 10% of sale price, $250 minimum. Please contact me for more information.

To Get Started:

your ad package choice from the list above, the horse's above mentioned information, and at least a few, up to 5 or 6 large uncropped photos to choose from per horse for the collage (more photos/files for "Basic plus" packages as indicated above), as well as pedigree link or papers scan if you'd like that displayed also. If you have something specific in mind (collage text, color scheme, layout, font, etc.) please indicate this as well.

I can accept online payment (see below) to get your ad started sooner, or mailed check () if you prefer. I will typically get your collage and ad done and posted within 2 to 3 business days of receiving your payment and the necessary photos/information.

I also build custom websites for clients that have more extensive needs than just a few horses to sell. You can get more information on my Rising Moon Ranch site if interested. Just let me know if I can answer any further questions or how I can help with your equine marketing needs.
