Custom Web Development in Almondsbury – Every Challenge is Different, Every Solution is Unique
Your business and its issues are yours, until you share them with us we can’t tell you anything meaningful about them. So, instead, here are few micro examples to demonstrate some of the wins Little Fire have achieved.
Unique Web Development for Global Business
Reaching for the Peaks
From the late 1980s until today, Jagged Globe has been the leading operators organising mountaineering adventures for customers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe organise expeditions for climbers globally.
We didn’t design the website but we have done a huge number of projects. All while retaining the original scheme with its beautiful photography.
It’s not been simple, to stay up to date we have:
- Redesign so that the Jagged Globe website meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS, we coded for the Sagepay (Opayo) online payment system to take deposits online.
- Massively simplified the booking system. Returning climbers can now book a expedition in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a application for recording customer capacity. Climbing at high altitudes can be risky and is normally physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to be confident that each climber is safe to travel.
- Integrated the Jagged Globe website with the SendInBlue mail management system so the mailing lists are completely GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe show the many photos that the climbers collect, we have developed an application to upload and manage customers’ photos in bulk.
Unique Web Development for e-commerce in Almondsbury
Rails of Sheffield, are one of largest vendors of model railways and craft goods in the country – with a volume of orders to match. When they came to us, we needed to deliver an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
Built on the industry-leading Shopify platform, the new Rails of Sheffield website has proven to be the solution they need.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railways market has pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery times. To allow this, we have created a custom, separate pre-order basket and checkout 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 love to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
When Worthing medical aesthetics business, Casafia were looking to launch, they came to the help of Little Fire {Digital Ltd}. An ideal task for Little Fire; we worked with the client to develop the logo and branding which features soft colourways with sharp, modern layout.
The website features online booking through the Pabau CRM – a system developed specifically for the medical aesthetics market.
Pabau is smoothly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we built the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the corporate site. Mailing list subscription forms on the site add users straight to a Mailchimp list and the client is able to change their contact preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the IRC client works with Facebook Messenger – our client’s usual text platform.
Unique Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a spot of bother. They had years robbed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had finally managed to acquire a site and start building the their new stadium on the same street, Plough Lane, in Wimbledon.
The new ground was almost finished but they had run out of money.
Under insane time pressure, we stepped in and worked like fools and delivered a one-off platform from which the club could sell bonds to raise money from their supporters.
It was the most successful fundraiser 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.”
