What Motivated you to start your business? What experience do you offer?
My passion is hunting and the outdoors so this motivated me to do more than just hunt. I also wanted something that would fund my passion to hunt.
I have a group of buddies that hunt together and I was always asked to do all the research the hunts we wanted to go on. I contacted all the outfitters and it was a natural to go into the booking biz, I knew the questions to ask and follow up.
What makes your business different/stand out?
I offer guaranteed tags for all my hunts or they are all 100% draws so my clients know they have the tag and landowner permit to hunt. No guesswork or waiting.
I research the hunts and landowner tags to make sure they are what they say they are. My hunts are with landowners who offer niche hunts for specific animals and are not out there with 50 tags to offer anyone, very specific so they are unique hunts.
Do you have any advice for people looking for your kind of business? What should they look for? What should they avoid?
Look for agents that actually visited the hunts or have people who have hunted with the landowner. I like references from the first person perspective and not five people removed. I give options, a more consultative approach. I try to match the client with the hunt to make sure I match physical limitations, needs, and obviously price.
I do a lot of Pre-qualification of all my clients to match with the best experience hunt possible. I am not just trying to sell a hunt like some agents do. They bastardize the prices in the market and just care about selling all the time.
Some of the red flags is to see a Super Selling Pitch and lack of good references with recent success and not success from ten years ago.
Describe a favorite or memorable client experience?
Recently I had a husband and wife do the Alligator and pig hunt. They emailed me with pics, had a wonderful time, harvested some nice animals and want to go back. That kind of response from a client is great. I need to do more for testimonials and follow-up with my clients.
Where do you go to find new clients? What marketing avenues deliver the best results for you?
Interestingly, my email blasts and Craig’s List gets me the most clients right now. Facebook gives me exposure but I could do more to get more likes and exposure to the right clients.
List your services or species that you offer?
I offer full service booking service from initial contact, set up the hunts, and follow up to insure nothing is missing. I try to book hunts that I would want to go on and many I have or have friends that go in the hunts.
I specialize in three species that outshines all others, Mule Deer, Elk and cow Elk in that order. The others are there but these are the ones that bring home the bacon consistently.
