Intellistart provides Covid-19 business support to struggling mechanic on the brink of collapse.
Throughout Covid-19, business support has been in short supply depending on the type of business that you have. So when we first heard about Harley Walsh’s appeal on Twitter regarding her father’s small business, we did all we could to help a struggling business stay afloat during Covid-19.
What Happened?
We first came across Harley Walsh’s appeal on Twitter, at that time it had already amassed a total of over 13,000 shares and 19,600 likes.
Her father’s business with a 35-year history was feeling the strain of Covid-19 and the future was not looking promising, bookings were down and there were fewer cars on the road needing a mechanic.
We could empathise with Harley and her father Jim, so we reached out on Twitter to see what we could do to soften the impact that Covid-19 was having on the business.
What Did We Do?
After learning a bit more about Jim’s business we started the process of creating him a brand-new website. We needed to generate enquiries from people who were searching for a mechanic during the pandemic and these enquiries were in short supply.
Without a website Jim was relying on word of mouth and reputation, limiting the number of prospective clients who were able to find his garage online.
We created a single page site with a small menu and anchor links that directed users to the relevant parts of the page to see the available services or make direct contact. Having a website can increase the reputation of a business by allowing prospective clients to learn more about your organisation, its values and see past work.
Jim’s business received its first website enquiry within a few days of Intellistart completing the project, starting a process that kept his business afloat. We are immensely proud to have had the opportunity to input on this project and see a fantastic outcome.
What Our Director Said
“It was a tweet that strung some chords, I don’t believe that there is enough support for businesses that are currently struggling by no fault of their own. I am happy that we can provide support even if it crosses country lines!”
Based on our corporate social responsibility we felt it was only natural to waive all costs to Jim’s business. By providing these services, Intellistart will be able to provide support and help keep a business from collapsing.
Our case study provided to Highmains Garage demonstrates our ability to work fast and deliver tangible results that meets the needs of our customers, even at the most sensitive at times.
