The Equestrian Social Media Awards are a superb way of promoting social media prowesse in the equestrian sector. Whatever the size of the business, social media creates a level playing field, where the big players are viewed against sole traders. It's a valuable promotional tool for equestrian businesses and also unites the equestrian world globally.

Having invested in social media for several years now, we were honored to be selected as a 2012 ESMA finalist. The fact that the nomination came from the riders in our community tells us they're enjoying our content and engaging with our brand, and for us, there's no better definition of winning.

The Equestrian Social Media Awards are a fantastic way to celebrate our vibrant equestrian community. From sharing important news, to reaching out to clients, building awareness for a great cause or making new ones, social media plays a crucial role in our daily lives and the ESMAs allow us to recognize, discover and connect with equestrians around the world who have also embraced this great tool.
