Custom Web Development in Surrey – A Solution for Every Problem
Your business is your own, you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are some brief case studies to show some of the solutions we’ve delivered.
Bespoke Web Development for International Business
Aiming for the Peaks
Since the late 1980s, Jagged Globe has been the leading operators organising mountaineering expeditions for customers. They were the first English company to organise a professionally-led expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe serve customers around the world.
Although we didn’t build the Jagged Globe website but we have updated a great deal. All while preserving its original scheme and its beautiful photography.
It’s not been simple, to stay up to date we have:
- Make the Jagged Globe site meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the PCI (Payment Card Industry) regulations, we coded for the Sagepay (Opayo) payment system to take deposits online.
- Massively simplified the booking system. Existing customers can now book a adventure in as few as 5 clicks.
- Implemented a system for recording client health. Climbing mountains can be risky and is normally physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to be certain that each and every customer is fit to climb.
- Integrated the company’s site with the SendInBlue mail management system so the mailing lists are completely GDPR compliant.
- To help the client display the many images that the customers collect, we have built tools to upload and manage clients’ photos in bulk.
Web Development for e-commerce in Bletchingley
Rails of Sheffield, are amongst the largest online vendors of model railways and craft goods in the North of England – with a volume of orders to match. When they came to Little Fire, we needed to deliver an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
We developed a new website on the market-leading Shopify system which has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railway marketplace has pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery timeframes. We have created a custom, separate pre-order system using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. Little Fire Digital 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.
Website Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
When Worthing medical aesthetics business, Casafia were looking to go online, they came to the help of Little Fire {Digital Ltd}. This was a perfect task for us; Little Fire collaborated with our client to design the logo and branding combining soft colourways with crisp, stylish layout.
The website features online booking through the Pabau CRM – a system designed for the medical aesthetics market.
Pabau is directly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we completed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact design of the corporate site. Mailing list subscription forms on the website add clients directly a Mailchimp mailing list and the client can manage their preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the chat widget plugs straight into Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular chat platform.
Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a spot of bother. They had decades robbed of their historical home ground, Plough Lane, and had at last managed to buy a site and start building the their new stadium on the same road, Plough Lane, in Wimbledon.
The new ground was nearly finished but they had run out of money.
Under mad time pressure, Little Fire stepped up and worked like slaves to delivered a one-off platform from which the Dons 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 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.”
