A Public Announcement

After 1st of July I will no longer be able to provide you lovely clients, new or old, with the possibility to order new saddles. I will only be able to offer consultations with the purpose of finding used saddles. Any orders coming in after 1st of July. from consultations done before 1st of July will be honoured for 6 months, according to an email I have had from THV. 

Due to THV being a small business, Keren is struggling managing the office and the admin. To minimise this, she wants the consultants to be stockists/distributors - meaning clients buys the saddles from the consultant rather than from THV. 

The implications of this is that I can not do this. As a micro entrepreneur I have a very low threshold of what my annual turnover can be, I could possibly sell 4 saddles/year. 

To register for the French equivalent of VAT would of course help, but it would most likely put me out of business very quickly, because I have to charge 24% tax on my fees and also products. 

Most of you live in countries with lower tax rate than France, so this would make the saddles more expensive than before. 

Last, but not the least, I am a Consultant, not a sales person. 

THV will have the new web site up and running shortly, so you will be able to see there who will be your nearest stockist. 

This is not what I wanted, but I can't do it in any other way. However, as a Functional Saddling Consultant, trained by BALANCE International, with 28yrs experience, and a THV Advisor - I will continue with my trips as usual, apart from not being able to help you to place orders for new THV saddles.
