How ShowAssist Is Transforming the Equestrian Gig Economy

Happy Tuesday partner,

It’s fitting that right after publishing our interview with equine-specific recruiters, we bring you this podcast on technology and labor in the equestrian business.

This week, we're chatting with Malachi Hinton and Deidre McAuley-Hayes, the mother-daughter powerhouse behind ShowAssist.

ShowAssist is a revolutionary platform that's transforming the equestrian industry by connecting barn owners with grooms, braiders, and body clippers. 

In this episode, we discuss:

• The perspectives barns and grooms have on each other, from working conditions to work ethic.

• Why retired grooms are coming out of retirement.

• How the ShowAssist founders are two of a handful in our industry who have aggregate salary data for grooms and braiders.

• And more.
