Robbie’s Outdoor Services Robbie is the owner of Robbie’s Outdoor Services, which is a Melbourne based company specializing in professional outdoor services to households in the south eastern suburbs. These services include: - Robbie has 8 employees, which include his secretary Brittany, who books customers and prepares all quotes and bills. He also has a further 7 gardeners who complete all the jobs for the Outdoor services business. Robbie is concerned about the decline in business recently and is worried that some of his employees will need to be fired to ease the financial strain on the business. So far he has only advertised in the local newspapers and occasionally by a local pamphlet drop. He believes that through the creation of a website, more people will learn about the quality of the services that the business offers. The website **should** allow customers to book gardeners online.
