American Farriers Journal
American Farriers Journal is the “hands-on” magazine for professional farriers, equine veterinarians and horse care product and service buyers.
Farriery is a centuries old profession that hasn’t changed much at its core. However, in this day and age, technology can help take your hoof-care business to the next level.
Technology is underutilized in farriery, though. While 67% of farriers carry a smartphone, only 51% use computers in their footcare business, according to the most recent American Farriers Journal Farrier Business Practices Survey. Approximately 31% use them for accounting. Another 18% schedule their clients’ next appointments on them, while 20% use them for invoicing. Just 39% of farriers use tablets and predominately utilize them for photographic (74%) and video (54%) purposes.
Whether you’re looking for a low-cost advertising outlet or a way to streamline your bookkeeping, one or more of the solutions highlighted here can help.
