For the past three years, we have been hosting this seminar with our good friends and partners Al Cousill and Jude Anderson at Pucara International Alpacas in McMinnville Oregon..... And it’s been a terrific success! We have been seeing a lot of people who do not yet own alpacas, newbies, plus even existing breeders, struggle with the concept of organizing an alpaca farm business structure to cope with their emotional and financial attraction to farming alpacas. This seminar is aimed at not only giving people the chance to have professional help in structuring an alpaca business but also to understand the nature of running an alpaca farm. Attendees will see what world demand is and why alpacas are farmed. They will see how to identify the niches and opportunities in the business and how to use the generous tax laws to get the most benefit. They will also see how to select and breed these rare and stoic camelids from South America.

THIS SEMINAR IS IDEAL FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT YET PURCHASED ALPACAS OR ARE CURRENTLY FORMING THEIR ALAPCA BUSINESS!

Participants will get information on the tax laws like Section 179 which gives substantial depreciation on the purchase of alpacas if you are running an alpaca business. Tim Beaumont, a life long banker will display his Alpaca Business Planner with case studies. World renown alpaca judge Jude Anderson will conduct a clinic on alpaca selection and breeding systems to achieve the most from the niches that her husband Al Cousill identifies in the industry.

With Alan and Jude you will be listening to fifteen years experience of successful alpaca farming on two continents. They have mentored clients all over the world into successful alpaca breeders. It has been their only source of income for ten years. Each participant to the seminar can get access to Jude and Al's Alpaca Thrive Program whereby they can help improve your chances of success by annual classing of your herd

We also get to see a successful alpaca business model. By choosing a niche, adopting a good business model and using branding and discerning breeding practices they have been able to capture the benefits of the generous taxation laws whilst making healthy profits.

Personalized meetings: Attendees can schedule a meeting with any of the hosts to talk in private about their individual situation. Many of these meetings can be held during the seminar and can be continued or started at a later date.
