Need an Extra Pair of Hands?
Websites, email marketing, AI and a bit of everything in between.
Hi, I’m John Hendley. I’ve been building websites, working with ecommerce, email marketing and digital technology for years. More recently, I’ve been developing AI-powered tools and services for businesses.
I work on my own projects as well as helping other businesses, and I’m always happy to talk to agencies that need a hand with something.
Perhaps you’re snowed under with client work, have a website that needs updating, a job that’s too small to justify tying up your own team or an idea you’d like to explore. Maybe you simply need someone reliable to take care of the bits and pieces that never seem to get done.
That’s where I can help.
I can work behind the scenes under your agency’s name, help out on individual projects or take on ongoing work that you’d rather outsource.
Here are a few ways I might be able to help.
What Can I Take Off Your Hands?
Website Updates & WordPress Support
Need someone to look after client websites, make changes, fix problems or add new features? I can help with WordPress, WooCommerce, content updates, plugins, integrations, troubleshooting and general website maintenance.
It might be a few hours here and there or a more involved development job. If your team is busy or you don’t want to take on the work yourself, give me a shout.
Done-for-You Email Newsletters
Through ClickAndSend.biz, I’ve developed a managed email newsletter service that takes the hassle out of producing and sending regular newsletters.
The client supplies rough content, notes or ideas. I take care of the rest, including the branded template, formatting, images, testing, proofing and sending, with reporting where appropriate.
It’s ideal for clients who know they should be emailing their customers but never quite get around to it, or for agencies that don’t want the ongoing production work on their own books.
I can provide the service under your brand, work directly with your client or simply take care of the production and delivery.

AI Tools & Development
I’ve been busy building practical AI tools, integrations and WordPress plugins, using AI to solve real business problems rather than just jumping on the bandwagon.
A couple of examples:
AI Intro Box – a website assistant that can answer questions about a business and help visitors take the next step, including arranging a meeting.
AI Lead Box – a tool that gives website visitors useful, personalised newsletter ideas and a sample email, while helping businesses generate and manage leads.

I’ve also developed supporting plugins, integrations and workflows around these services. If you have an idea for an AI feature, need help connecting systems or want to explore what’s possible, let’s have a chat.
Email Marketing & Integrations
I’ve spent years working with HTML email, templates, signatures, newsletter platforms and the technical side of email delivery.
I can help with email design and formatting, signup forms, mailing list integrations, WooCommerce customer data, segmentation, troubleshooting and campaign production.
If you have clients who need regular email marketing but don’t need a full agency campaign every time, my managed newsletter service might be a good fit.
WooCommerce & Ecommerce
I also build and manage ecommerce websites, including my own online marketplace, ShopStreet.ie.
I can help with WooCommerce development, product catalogues, custom functionality, product data, search and filtering, supplier integrations and the general challenges that come with running an online shop.
I’ve also developed a specialist trade wine catalogue for Eco Wine Ireland, combining custom functionality with structured product information and search features.
SEO, Content & General Digital Advice
Need help improving a website, writing or updating content, investigating an SEO problem or working out what to do next? I can help with technical SEO, product and category content, landing pages, site structure, indexing issues and practical website improvements.
I’m also happy to bounce around ideas, look at a problem or offer a second opinion before you commit time and money to a project.
Sometimes you need someone to build something. Sometimes you just need someone to help you work out what makes sense.
How I Work With Agencies
I’m flexible. There’s no need to squeeze every job into a big project.
- Need a hand? Send me the task and let’s see what needs doing.
- Too much work on? Outsource website updates, email production or development tasks.
- Need a specialist? Bring me in to help with a particular project or technical challenge.
- Want to offer more services? Use my white-label newsletter service or explore an AI tool or integration for your clients.
- Need ongoing help? We can discuss a regular arrangement that works for both of us.
I understand the importance of looking after client relationships. I can work quietly in the background under your brand or collaborate with your team, depending on what suits you and the client.
A Few Things I’ve Built
I find it’s easier to show people what I do than to make grand claims about it.
- ShopStreet.ie – my online marketplace, which I’ve built and managed, with hands-on experience of ecommerce, products, suppliers and day-to-day website management.
- Eco Wine Ireland – a specialist trade wine catalogue platform with custom functionality and searchable product information.
- AI Lead Box – how I built an AI newsletter generator that helps businesses attract and qualify leads.
- AI Intro Box – a working example of an AI-powered website assistant.
- SEO & Email Marketing – some of my thoughts and experience on organic traffic and building alternative ways to reach customers.
Have You Got Something I Could Help With?
If you’re a web designer, creative agency, marketing consultant or business owner who could use an extra pair of hands, I’d love to hear from you.
You don’t need to have a perfectly defined brief. It could be a website that needs attention, a client who needs newsletters, a technical problem that’s been hanging around or an idea you’d like to do something with.
Drop me a line, tell me what you’re working on and we’ll take it from there.
