Bespoke Web Development in Rhondda Cynon Taff – Every Problem is Unique, Every Solution Different
Your business is yours and you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are few micro examples to show some of the problems Little Fire have managed to fix.
Bespoke Website Development for Business Worldwide
Aiming High
Since the late 1980s, Jagged Globe has been the leading company organising mountaineering trips for clients. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-led attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe serve customers around the world.
We didn’t construct the Jagged Globe website but we have done a huge number of projects. All while retaining its original design with its beautiful photography.
It’s not been simple, over the years we have had to:
- Make the website meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) regulations, we implemented the Sagepay (Opayo) payment gateway to take deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking procedure. Existing customers can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a procedure for recording customer capacity. Climbing in the wilderness is not without danger and is often physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to be certain that each climber is fit to explore.
- Integrated the site with the SendInBlue email marketing system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe show the many photos that the climbers collect, we have developed tools to upload and manage clients’ photos in bulk.
Bespoke Web Development for e-commerce in Aberdare
Rails of Sheffield, are one of most successful 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 an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
Little Fire Digital Ltd built a new site on the rock-solid Shopify system which has proven to be the solution that Rails of Sheffield need.
The new site fixes a number of problems:
- The model railway marketplace has pre-orders with extraordinarily long delivery timeframes. To manage this, we have created a bespoke, separate pre-order basket and checkout using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. Little Fire coordinated development teams to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and the client’s two ebay shops.
Whatever you have to sell, we’d like to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
When West Sussex medical aesthetics clinic, Casafia were looking to go online, they asked for the help of Little Fire {Digital}. This was a dream task for us; we worked with the client to develop the logo and branding combining subtle colours with clean, modern layout.
The website features online booking through the Pabau CRM – a system created for the beauty clinic sector.
Pabau is directly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer communications so we built the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact design of the corporate website. Mailing list subscription forms on the main site add customers directly a Mailchimp list and the client is able to update their contact preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the chat widget works with Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular chat platform.
Bespoke Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades away from their historical home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to acquire a site and start building the their new stadium on the same street, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was nearly finished but they had run out of money.
Under insane time pressure, we stepped forward and worked like fools to created them a standalone platform from which AFC Wimbledon could issue bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It turned out to be the greatest fundraising effort in the history of the 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.”
