about this project

In December 2017, I traveled home from Auburn University to visit with friends and family. My uncle, Kevin Parrish, works as a saddlemaker nearby. He’s been an entrepreneur for years, and he wanted to improve his small business’ online performance. He’d been using a basic Google site for years, and it was outdated.

I offered to help him create a new site in WordPress, using the design skills I’d picked up in my classes. I visited his shop, shot photography of his workspace and products, and I began to craft him a website using WordPress.

Site

Functionality

By integrating Woocommerce, we were able to create a stable e-commerce system for his customers. They can now visit his store, purchase products, and direct message him. I integrated Google Analytics and GoogleMyBusiness, allowing him to track visits, searches, and more.

SEO Performance

Since creating the site, The Saddle Guy has established itself on the front page of Google for “saddle repair” and Kevin routinely generates leads through the site. Visit it today at thesaddleguy.com.

He can lead, but he can also take direction. He understands constructive criticism and is able to take suggestions to make his work even stronger. Jack has knowledge and ability in public relations, but he is also skilled with photography and design. Jack is able to work with others or independently. He is also respectful of others.

I cannot speak highly enough about Jack Parrish. Jack exhibits an excellent desire and willingness to take on new assignments and responsibilities. He is dependable, conscientious and works collaboratively in an agency environment... He is one of the most talented young people I have ever had the pleasure of working with.
