GoHorseShow.com’s Director of Sales, Don Bell, isn’t one to toot his own
horn. Not only is Bell an accomplished horseman, artist, musician and
new father…GoHorseShow’s sales have nearly doubled since he joined our
team a year ago. So when The American Quarter Horse Journal recently
featured him in their July 2010 issue, we thought we would share it with
our readers as well.
Don bell isn’t one to let the grass grow
under his feet. At 34, Don is a newly minted AQHA steward and veteran AQHA
judge, having obtained his card nearly 10 years ago. And three years ago, when
he became an AQHA director representing Texas, he was the youngest in state
history.
Don grew up, appropriately, in the
Volunteer State – Tennessee – then headed to West Texas A&M University, where
he graduated with a degree in equine industry and business. He has also
conditioned halter horses, bringing home seven AQHA world championships and
earning honors at the All American Quarter Horse Congress, including
conditioning and showing the 2005 grand champion stallion.
There were no sleight-of-hand tricks or
shortcuts to his achievements; success came the old fashioned way – by working for
it.
“I really don’t think I’m naturally talented at
anything,” he says modestly. “But I know how to work hard. It just goes to
prove that anybody can do anything, if they don’t let their fears get the best
of them. Be persistent!”
