''Running a Stables as a Business'' concentrates on the business of keeping and using horses as a business, either the proprietor's own horses for teaching, trekking or showing, or clients' horses for showing or livery. It covers working pupils and unpaid 'helpers', organizing lessons and keeping the neighbours sweet, and the basics of building indoor and outdoor maneges. Common pitfalls are explained, ways of cutting losses and increasing profits are suggested and practical examples of how cash books should be kept and how cash flow can be forecast are given. All the information for running a horse business as a profitable concern rather than a loss-making hobby is here. This book is the bible for all stable proprietors or prospective proprietors.
