Web Development in Aberdeenshire – A Solution for Every Problem
Your business is yours, you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are some brief case studies to show some of the wins Little Fire have achieved.
Web Development for Businesses Worldwide
Aiming for the Peaks
From 1987 until today, Jagged Globe has been the leading company organising mountaineering expeditions for clients. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-led expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe serve climbers around the world.
We didn’t build the website but we have done a great deal, whilst keeping the original scheme and its stunning photography.
It’s not been straightforward, to stay up to date we have had to:
- Redevelop so that the website meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements, we implemented the Sagepay (Opayo) online payment system to take deposits online.
- Completely redesigned the online booking system. Returning climbers can now book a adventure in as few as 5 clicks.
- Implemented a system for recording customer health. Climbing mountains can be risky and is normally physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to know that each customer is fit to travel.
- Integrated the company’s website with the SendInBlue mail management system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe make best use of the many photos that the climbers collect, we have implemented tools to upload and manage climbers’ pictures in bulk.
Unique Web Development for e-commerce in Belhelvie
As one of busiest online vendors of model railways and craft goods in the Country, with a volume of orders to match, Rails of Sheffield needed us to provide an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
Built on the market-leading Shopify system, 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 permits pre-orders with extraordinarily long delivery times. We have created a on-off, bespoke pre-order system using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. Little Fire Digital Limited coordinated development teams to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and Rails of Sheffield’s two ebay stores.
Whatever you‘re selling, we’d really love to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
Little Fire Digital built the online presence for West Sussex beauty business, Casafia, when they needed something a little different. A perfect project for us; Little Fire worked with the client to develop the logo and branding which combines soft colourways with sharp, modern design.
The website integrates with the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system designed specifically for the beauty sector.
Pabau smoothly works with Mailchimp to handle customer communications so we designed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the main site. Mailing list subscription forms on the website add users straight to a Mailchimp mailing list and the customer can manage their preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the chat widget plugs straight into Facebook Messenger – our client’s usual chat platform.
Bespoke Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a fix. They had decades dispossessed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to purchase a site and start building the their new stadium on the same road, Plough Lane, in Wimbledon.
The new ground was almost completed but they had run out of money.
Under near-impossible time pressure, we stepped up, worked like slaves and developed a one-off platform from which the club could issue bonds to raise money from their supporters.
It has been the most successful fundraising effort in the history of the football league, and we 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.”
