Client Success Story: Soard Properties Launches New Website
Rural Reimagined and its partner TCRI are excited to share about Soard Properties, a new client success story. Soard Properties has provided TN Tech students and surrounding communities with apartments and houses for over 40 years, but they did so without a website. With the help of technical assistance from Rural Reimagined and TCRI, Soard Properties now has a new website that features their various buildings. Kinsey Potter, a Ph.D student and the creator of the website states, “This was a great opportunity to learn website development skills and gain real life experience serving local businesses.” The management of Soard Properties states, “As many of our tenants are TTU students, Management of Soard Properties was excited to collaborate with Kinsey Potter on the website Design. This was a great experience for us, and we look forward to working with TTU in the future.” Visit the website here: https://www.soardprop.com/. Stay tuned for upcoming success stories. Wings up!
