    Setting up a farriery business - advice please!

    Thanks! Do you have any ideas of how i can find out the areas that are lacking farriers? Thats what i did this thread for, but im still not sure! He wants to be dedicated to the clients he has, so i dont think he wants to have too many of them at first. Thank you
