Fry Home Services was a local handyman who operated for 15+ years by word-of-mouth alone. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit, his business was severely impacted, due to social distancing requirements and his own health concerns. He was unable to do work inside of people's homes, and more people were taking on DIY projects themselves, but without the help of an expert.
Simple Site Now helped him brainstorm services that he could do safely, and created a site to showcase his work, advertising COVID-safe services. With the site, he was given the option to create flyers and cards for distribution in local neighborhoods, to keep up business during the pandemic.
The business owner ultimately decided to retire a year later, but the site remains a favorite.
