[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1029934, member: 16453"] AussieLim, I have noticed on the East coast here that a lot of inaugaral bull sales take a fair hit price wise, very low averages and low clearance rates. Many of these are well advertised and the vendors have invested in topline genetics as well. On the other hand you have to throw your hat in the ring at some time and make a start at promoting your own sale. I think having the bulls assessed by a well known assessor helps a lot as they tend to put the word out to their clients to turn up. I am unashamedly a hobby breeder and have started selling at a very good multivendor sale we have around this way, this will be my second year selling. We have a sale average comparable to many on property sales and a good clientel. I would say that most of the vendors would be more than just hobby breeders and everyone works well together to promote the sale. It is a good compromise for those thinking of going out on their own.
