I have recently decided to improve upon an idea that has become popular. The basic idea was implemented by Taylor Made Sales Agency (eCatalog), with another implementation by Equineline's Sales Catalog App (available only for iPad, unfortunately). I am building an application, called ThoroughCatalog, where consignors can post pedigrees, pictures, and videos of their sales prospects with vet information, family notes, and conformational notes. This website and app will be compatible with any browser on any device (PC, Mac, iOS, Android, etc.).
While I realize the idea of a multimedia-enabled sales catalog is not in itself original, offering this service to all consignors for a small fee ($10 or less per horse) is sure to level the playing field for consignors of all sizes. The small consignors out there can make use of this service without going through the hassle and (huge) expense of hiring a web developer like Taylor Made did. Not all consignors can afford to hire a web developer and soon they won't have to.
ThoroughCatalog.com and ThoroughbredCatalog.com domains have been purchased for hosting this application.
You, my audience, will be updated via this blog and through one of the above links. I hope to have this project done in time for the Fasig-Tipton May Midlantic sale, though the schedule is not set in stone. The project is well underway and is getting new ideas added to the code daily.
Stay tuned for more!
