While at a meeting with their accountant, Aspen and Cody Cronkhite voiced their idea to design a company website and were encouraged to check out our Digital Service Squad program. "Grace was just amazing to work with. We’re already getting new clients every week from our new website, and it’s helped me a lot with time management. I used to have people messaging for prices and information, but now all that information is on the website for people to find right away." —Aspen Cronkhite 🥩 From the farm to the butchery, Cronkhite Beef Company is a locally-owned and family-run business strives to have top quality products, and now great customer communication, while they expand their services. We're proud to support a great local business like this! https://ow.ly/HBQN50SJFtF #cfchinook #testimonial #albertabeef #warner #dss
