I used to be so frustrated with the complexity of the meat goat market.
I’ll never forget before I started raising meat goats, how everyone talked about how lucrative this market was. But…
Hi I'm Leslie, your instructor.
There isn’t one central resource for farmers to know how to access the “market”
With livestock markets, I was always taking a gamble and never had control over my revenue
There’s a lack of any in-depth guidance on who goat meat consumers are and how to access them
No federal support or resources exist to help producers market and promote goat meat to consumers and retail, such as grocery stories and restaurants
There’s little to nothing on best practices on navigating the goat meat processing side of direct marketing
If you’re anything like me, one or more of the above, this probably hits very close to home!
It’s time to say goodbye to the uncertainty and confusion around goat meat marketing and take the process into your own hands for your farm and family.
Let’s set the course for the direction of your farm without needing to feel floundering on how to actually market your meat goats.
Tell me more!
You know there’s tremendous opportunity for the goat meat industry, but you haven’t figured out a way to find your farm’s fit in the industry:
- Do you feel frustrated … with knowing how to access the goat meat market?
- Do you need more resources … to better serve your goat meat customers and attract new ones?
- Do you find yourself… feeling like the time you spend raising your goats is not worth the inconsistent revenue you might receive at a livestock market
I was once where you are, and I can help.
The Meat Goat Marketing Academy will give you the information, tools and support to find and create the best approach to market your meat goats for your farm or ranch.

We’ll dive even deeper into the dynamics of the U.S. Goat Meat Market, looking at industry trends, and take a more detailed view of market sales opportunities for your meat goats, including the commodity market, wholesale, and direct sales. We will also evaluate today’s goat meat consumer trends and their behavior, as well as understand how to identify your target customer.

We will also discuss how to raise your meat goats for your ideal customer through your selected sales approach.

This module will cover harvest weights and yield estimates, how to navigate the inspection and licensing process for selling goat meat, tips for working with processors and cutting goats, as well as other opportunities to make use of the whole animal.

Special Bonus: The Stressless Copywriting Guide for your Farm Website workbook.
I KNOW websites can seem overwhelming with the technology and not to mention what to actually include for content about your farm.
I GET IT. It can be intimidating. But, it really doesn’t have to be.
This workbook will walk you through the foundational website structure of what pages you REALLY need to get started with your farm’s website and prompts to guide you to easily write the content that will live on those pages.
If you sign up by March 6, 11:59 p.m. CST, you’ll also get access to this workbook.

A NOTE FROM LESLIE...
I’m a goat meat farmer first, who’s also a mom, trained-and-experienced marketer, mentor and instructor.
More than 10 years ago I started my farm raising meat goats with the goal of eventually selling meat directly to consumers. Taking small steps along the way, I’ve sold my goats for meat in a variety of ways: livestock markets, halves and wholes, live animals, wholesale and, now by the cut with a nation-wide home delivery option.
I’m passionate about helping others who are interested in raising and marketing meat goats. The resources for us as farmers are scarce. I’ve been there, and I’m still there if I’m totally honest.
But, I’ve learned so much along the way as I’ve grown our direct market business for the farm AND am constantly seeking out what little bits and pieces of information is out there about the market and goat meat as a protein. I want to share that with you.
By the end of the first 12-days of your course you’ll receive access to the first two modules of the Goat Meat Marketing Academy and a Live Q&A Session. If you don’t feel confident in your options for marketing your meat goats by 4 p.m. on March 22, 2023, simply reach out and show me the work you’ve put in and we’ll refund your investment.
