functionality such as blogs, social media and user-generated content.Joe’s Garage is doing very well in the local market, but currently has noonline presence. Joe does not know much about website design or whatto include in the website. Therefore, you must use your knowledge andcreativity to develop the site, following the guidelines below.Company BriefJoe Smithson established Joe’s Garage in 2005. He currently advertisesin local newspapers and receives customer calls on his cell phone (021-45-6789). He keeps his appointments organised on his smartphone ashe is relatively comfortable using this type of device.Joe's Garage operates six days a week. Most repair jobs are bookedMonday-Friday and most WOF appointments are on Saturdays. When acustomer calls or texts Joe to book an appointment, Joe will record inhis journal the name and phone number of the customer, date andtime of the appointment, as well as the services that the customerrequires.However, Joe has found this is a very ineffective way of operating because every time he answers the phone he has to stop his present job. In the company’s early days, he could remember the names of most of his clients, but since the business has grown this approach is simply not working. In addition, he has begun employing Luke, a student from a local university, to help with basic jobs two days per week. Luke was the onewho suggested Joe needs a website to take orders and advertise online, as well as having a blog to help customers maintain their vehicles. Luke also thinks social media would be a good way to advertise to a wider range of customers. Joe likes the idea, and he started discussing online bookings with his customers. About 80% of them responded positively to the idea, so he decided to go ahead with contracting you to set up the site.Guidelines1.
