Georgetown Garden Centre
garden centre · Halton Hills, GTA
Your site tells customers to call in just to check availability and place an order - after 52 years in Georgetown, that's a lot of phone volume a simple online ordering page could take off your team's plate.
Why they need it
Georgetown Garden Centre has been open since 1972 and the current playbook for curbside pickup is a banner telling customers to 'CALL US AT 905-877-8882 TO KNOW MORE ABOUT AVAILABILITY AND PLACE YOUR ORDER' - there is no online catalog, no published email, and no posted hours. Every single order and stock check ties up a phone line during the spring/summer rush when call volume is highest. A basic online ordering and curbside-pickup scheduling system tied to a real product list would let staff spend their time on the floor instead of the phone, give customers self-serve stock visibility, and finally put hours and a business inbox online so people stop calling just to ask when the place is open. For a business with over 50 years of brand equity and zero digital ordering infrastructure, this is close to a pure efficiency win with fast payback.
