About Morganshowcase

 

Welcome to Morganshowcase.com...the fastest way to see a horse in action.

 

This page and its links will give you a glimpse of what's in store for buyers, sellers and breeders on morganshowcase.com.

FEATURES * HOW IT WORKS * WHY MORGANSHOWCASE

The first thing you might notice is that morganshowcase.com doesn't look like any other listing site. That's because it isn't. We're not just an internet "classifieds," offering information and a link, but a true online showcase--an interactive system that's designed to be a complete marketing tool for breeders and sellers.

Here's why:

Incredible features

No other medium offers so many exciting and interactive ways to see, read, or discover more about Morgans. Features include:

  • Splash Page - Each horse has its own main page, which includes a photo, seller comments and description, and an easy-to-use navigation bar to connect viewers to the different features. It's like having a website for every horse!
  • Quicktime Movie - You can download a 15-30 second Quicktime movie to see a Morgan in sharp, fluid motion.
  • Pedigree - Click the link and instantly see a complete pedigree of the horse, up to five generations.
  • Photo Gallery - See up to four photos of the horse in full-color, razor-sharp resolution.
  • E-mail Seller - You've seen your perfect Morgan, and you can't wait to contact the seller. Easy. Just click on the e-mail link, a message box will appear already addressed to the seller, ask your questions, click on the send button and your message is on its way. Plus, each page delivers other vital information, such as phone numbers and a street address.
  • Farm Link - If the seller or breeder has a web site, this button will link you to it.

How the Site Works

On the home page you'll find the categories of the horses listed for sale or standing at stud on this website. Additionally, at the side of every page on the site, you'll find this navigation bar that will guide you through the entire site. All of the horses listed in the categories of Junior and Five and Over Horses are also cross-referenced in the Name Index alphabetically, and in the Geographical Index by state, as well as the Price index (if a price is designated or a price-range is designated by the seller).

Once you find a horse that interests you, click on that horse's name to go to the horse's own customized page. From there you can navigate to the different features (pedigree, photos, video).

If you have trouble loading and playing the videos, we have a Video Troubleshooting page that we will be continually updating. Meanwhile, please e-mail tami@morganshowcase.com and she will try to help you through it. Many times it's as simple as adjusting the preferences in your web browser or downloading the lastest Quicktime freeware.

If you would like to list a horse on MorganShowcase.com, please go to the Rates page and there you will find an on-line submission form that will allow you to attach photos, video, indicate if you are mailing some or all of these, complete your descriptive information and even pay on-line, or print an invoice to mail with your check.

 

Seller or Breeder? Here's why you should advertise on morganshowcase.com

The power of the internet, combined with the power of mass marketing--No product or service can be truly successful unless people know about it. This is especially true for the internet. A website can be an incredibly effective and persuasive sales tool once your customers find it. But they have to find it first. That's why major internet companies like Yahoo® and AOL® advertise in other medium, such as print, radio and TV.

For this same reason, morganshowcase.com aggressively promotes and advertises our site. Our advertising plan features monthly ads in The Morgan Horse, the official breed journal, plus a variety of show programs, including regional championships and the Grand National, as well as local club newsletters. In addition, readers will find ads in directory publications, such as the AMHA Membership Directory.

We also plan on promoting the site directly at events as the opportunity arises.

What does all this mean for you? High visibility. You don't have to worry about customers finding your listing. We drive them to you. And we do it with a class and a style that creates excitement and a perception of higher value for your Morgan.

Features designed to make it easier and faster to sell--Think about how many times you've had to take time out of your busy schedule to make copies of your sales video and ship them to prospective buyers, only to get no reaction. Our downloadable video viewing feature can completely eliminate this problem. Just say: "Watch the video on morganshowcase.com," and let the website do the rest.

The world is your audience--Magazines and other printed materials only reach those people who subscribe, who are at the point of purchase, or who are on the mailing list. The internet can literally reach the entire world, anywhere people can access an on-line connection. Even if you don't consider the rest of the world as a potential customer base, isn't it great to know that you're reaching so many more people in your own country?

Incredible value--For the average price of a 1/6-page, one-time ad in a popular breed publication, you could feature a horse on morganshowcase.com until that horse is sold. And since we use print publications to drive viewers to the site, you'll still have the power of print on your side. Click here for current rates.

If you still have questions about Morganshowcase.com that we haven't answered, give Tami a call at 636-583-0920 or e-mail her.

Enjoy our site!
