Hello readers. I'm Tim Hamilton. This is a letter for all my past customers and friends of those customers. It's also a letter to those that do not know me but know of my reputation as a farrier. I am writing this on these forums because I know a lot of somd horse people read these forums for info and to keep current on local info. I also can't reach and contact everyone individually.Simply put I am sorry for the way I managed and wasted your time with my poor business skills. When I first went to school to learn this profession I told myself I would never become the farrier that does not show up to appointments or answer my darn phone. Well I did become that farrier. I'm very disappointed in myself and disgusted with what my reputation has become. I also understand that I deserve that reputation. With some deep thought and help from a friend I have pulled away from that youthful and arrogant way of managing my business. I would like for people to start to know me as a the farrier I wanted to be 5 years ago and would like to prove that to people who know me for what I was. I am a very patient farrier that puts all my passion for horses into my work. I love the feeling of going out to a farm and doing a job that makes the client, as well as the horse, as happy as I can. I have been a part of the somd community since I was little. With horseshoeing I was so excited to give back to the community that I grew up in. With great humility I give this letter to you all with hopes that I can undo what I have created and become a proud part of this community. Not a joke in another line of terrible farriers. I hope in the near future people will begin to know me as the reliable, friendly, horse loving, good working farrier that I was taught to be. Thanks to anyone who took the time to read my wall of text. Anyone with question or want to get in contact with me feel free to email me at TimHam@live.com or call at 301-904-0383.
