Alley Land & Fencing, LLC. Business History:
John and Taylor Alley started Alley Land & Fencing, LLC. as a sole proprietorship in 2016 prior to their marriage in 2018.
For the first few years they ran the business jointly, as a sole proprietorship, under John's name. Taylor invested her time and finances in equipment purchases, office management, scheduling, payroll, and helping with material orders – while John continued to rodeo professionally, which meant he was out of town often. This provided Taylor with an opportunity to learn the business inside and out.
Taylor simultaneously started a business called “The Works” to assist in bookkeeping, budgeting, payroll, and financial planning for the fencing company – as well as freelancing the same services for other small businesses. This allowed the two to offset some of the startup costs and enabled the fencing company to grow.
Fast forward to the year 2020, John and Taylor made the decision to form an LLC with the fencing company and bookkeeping company.
Both the fencing and bookkeeping businesses have grown substantially. In addition to these businesses John and Taylor manage a custom grazing business where they feed cattle for customers. Taylor was able to hire outstanding help with the bookkeeping business and move to an oversight role towards the end of 2020 – which allowed her to fully submerge in even more operational aspects of the fencing company.
While their roles have remained primarily as Taylor handling all office items and John in the field – in 2022 they decided to amend ownership to 51% Taylor / 49% John to mirror the decision making and roles each play and demonstrate commitment to help contractors reach their diversity goals.
In addition, they became WBENC certified in 2022 to highlight the diversity of their business.
Today – John handles field installation, measurements, and employee scheduling. Taylor handles estimates, invoicing, all executive decision making, all purchases (materials, equipment, etc.), payroll, hiring, firing, advertising, and a large part of the customer communication.
