I started my own buisness about 3 months agoo.. It takes time to get the ball rolling. There is classes you can go to which give you advice on how to start your own buisness. if you type it in google. im sure youll find something.
i got some business cards made on VISTAPRINT! just hand them into local tack shops, riding schools ect. Once your name is out there, youll get more reconisized!
Hope this helps.

I think it depends on the amount of horses/ponies that you selll through the year to class as a dealer, and where you are keeping the horses as you will probably have to pay business rates. They are not cheap...but go to business link as jessica said, good site.
