Bespoke Web Development in Sheffield – Every Problem is Different, Every Solution is Unique
Your business is yours and you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are few brief case studies to demonstrate some of the problems Little Fire Digital Ltd have managed to fix.
Bespoke Web Development for Business Worldwide
Reaching for the Summit
Since 1987, Jagged Globe has been the leading company organising mountaineering trips for customers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe serve climbers globally.
Although we didn’t build the website but we’ve done a great deal, while keeping its original scheme with its beautiful photography.
It’s not been straightforward, to stay up to date we have:
- Redevelop so that the website meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS, we developed an interface for the Sagepay (Opayo) payment system to take client deposits online.
- Completely redeveloped the online booking user-experience. Returning clients can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a system for recording customer fitness. Climbing at high altitudes is not without risk and is often physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to be certain that each and every customer is fit to explore.
- Integrated the company’s website with the SendInBlue mail management platform so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help the client show the many images that the climbers collect, we have developed tools to upload and manage customers’ images in bulk.
Unique Web Development for e-commerce in Abbeydale
Rails of Sheffield, are amongst the busiest vendors of model railways and hobbies in the country – with a volume of sales to match. When they came to us, we needed to deliver enterprise-level e-commerce.
Built on the rock-solid Shopify system, the new Rails of Sheffield site has proven to be the solution they need.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railways market permits pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery timeframes. To accommodate this, we have created a custom, distinct pre-order system using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. We coordinated development teams to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and the client’s two ebay stores.
Whatever you have to sell, we’d really love to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
When West Sussex beauty practice, Casafia were looking to launch, they asked for the help of Little Fire {Digital Limited}. A perfect task for us; we collaborated with the client to create the logo and branding featuring soft colours and clean, stylish design.
The website features online booking through the Pabau CRM – a system designed for the beauty sector.
Pabau is built to seamlessly work with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we completed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the main website. Mailing list sign up forms on the website add clients directly a Mailchimp mailing list and the client is able to update their settings without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the IRC client is built to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular text platform.
Custom Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a spot of bother. They had decades away from their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had finally managed to buy a site and start building the their new home ground on the same road, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was about to be finished but they had run out of money.
Under near-impossible time pressure, Little Fire stepped up and worked like fools and created them a standalone platform from which the club could sell bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It was the greatest fundraiser in the history of the English football league, and Little Fire helped it to make it happen. Read the case study to find out more.
“Wimbledon fans are always at their best in a crisis and we like a challenge. So when we needed to stop control of the club being sold off in late 2019, a few of us suggested launching a Bond scheme.
That idea went from concept to a live website in a fortnight thanks to the tireless efforts of Simon and Little Fire.
They had to deal with all of the standard website challenges (design, layout, content etc) as well complying with legal regulations and compliance policies that were being finalised as we went along.
Oh, and that fortnight included Christmas and New Year. It was a difficult brief on an impossible timescale, but they threw themselves into it wholeheartedly and delivered a well-designed, easy-to-use robust and secure solution under all that pressure.
And the campaign? Well that raised over £5m in a matter of weeks and is the largest bond raise by a British football club ever. If Little Fire can produce work like this so quickly and effectively, I can only imagine how much they could achieve for your business if you give them a sensible timeframe. We are indebted to Simon and his team. You helped Bring The Dons Home.”
