AGS Case Studies
Hackney Nursery, a 160-acre family business in Quincy Florida, wanted an easier way to share plant availability online with their customers. They were using Flicker, and Google Photos, but it was hard to update and use on a constant basis. They could not alphabetize, customers could not search through 160-190 items, and it was difficult to put information on those sites and organize it. They were sending availability on excel, the customer had to open, scroll, and hope they ran across the item they were looking for. Find out how we helped Hackney Nursery solve their problem here.
