A few of our recent projects have been:
Steve Gurney
Steve has had a few websites before, including some he's built himself, but he wanted one with a few key features: easy to update; well ranked; business generating and professional.
Steve is one of the best known personalities in New Zealand, but how many people know that he's available for corporate talks, motivational speeches and team building work? A lot more now!
Beauty Essentials
Jo had a website, but it wasn't working. She came to us for two key things: to be able to update the site with new products, services and prices: to attract new clients to her business.
She has an incredible retention rate, but wanted to increase the number of people picking up the phone and coming through the door. We overhauled the site to give it a much more friendly, healthy and professional feel. Then we provided her with a Content Management System so she can alter the site however she needs to whenever she needs to.
PaddlerZone
An e-commerce site for an established kayaking business in Christchurch. The spec was to produce an easy to navigate, readable site that customers can use for both product research and direct purchases. The company's branding is well established, so the design works with that branding while ensuring that the site is clear and readable for users. All products are no more than 2 clicks away from any page on the site.
Pete Drawn
Pete has been drawing his whole life and wanted a way to show clients the standard and style of his work without having to mail lots of paper examples around the country. He wanted something fairly simple that he could update himself as and when he had the time. Pete wasn't too bothered about obtaining new clients directly through the site, but wanted an online portfolio to show potential clients his work.
Latin Fire Dance Studio
A site designed to attract new students to the Salsa, Merengue and Cha Cha school and provide a central location for the dance studio to display their photos and information on events and shows. Latin Fire are able to update this site themselves, adding, editing and removing pages as they wish.
Kite Sports
Tim at Kite Sports was looking for an updated commerce site to drive the sales that his existing e-commerce site wasn't providing. His business, while always about kites, boards and lessons, changes its focus with the seasons. Winter is about the snow, spring is about the mountains and summer is about the sea, he wanted his site to reflect this and to set the scene for site visitors. We created a different look for each of these kiteboarding variations that Tim can activate as the seasons change - this could have been automated but sometimes spring arrives late or the snow comes early.
