Products
How does the business side of Soulful Equine work?
About 90-95% of content on the Soulful Equine blog and site is free, but we plan to sell a growing set of informational products in the future. We also plan to grow our online store gradually with products we believe in and have used ourselves; unique products that may or may not be easily found on other online stores as well as fun and educational 3rd party materials. We will listen to our customers ideas and add products that meet both our customer needs and Soulful Equine’s standards.
Any product we offer will be held to a high standard or we will not offer it. If a company we are working with starts to skimp on the quality of their product(s) we will pull those products from our store and dissolve that business relationship.
This will be a strict policy.
Do you offer advertising or site sponsorships?
No, not at this time. In the future we may offer advertising options.
Do you have an affiliate program for your products
As Soulful Equine matures we will put an affiliate program in place.

Criticism
I don’t like what Soulful Equine is all about because ….[whatever the reason]
The information, views and the belief system of Soulful Equine is not for everyone. If it is not for you that is OK. It does not hurt our feelings. Our goal is to attract those who are “like minded” and who have a passion for learning. As the old saying goes.. birds of a feather flock together. There are many other organizations, web sites, etc. that may suit you better.
Soulful Equine’s Thoughts
Soulful Equine loves the saying “If you do not stand for something, you will fall for anything!”. It is easy to criticize rather than stand for something. It is better to believe in something rather than sit at the sidelines, do nothing, and complain about what the next guy is doing wrong. Soulful Equine knows what side of that fence we want to stay on. We will never claim to know all, but we will always strive to do better.
Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds. ~ Albert Einstein
