Custom Web Development in Hertfordshire – 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 some micro case studies to demonstrate some of the wins Little Fire Digital have achieved.
Website Development for Business Worldwide
Aiming for the Top
From the late 1980s until today, Jagged Globe has been the leading company organising mountaineering trips for climbers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe serve climbers worldwide.
We didn’t construct the website but we’ve done a great deal, whilst keeping its original scheme with its stunning photography.
It hasn’t been simple, over the years we have had to:
- Make the site meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements, we developed an interface for the Sagepay (Opayo) online payment gateway to take deposits online.
- Completely redesigned the booking interface. Returning customers can now book a adventure in as few as 5 clicks.
- Implemented a application for recording client health. Climbing mountains is not without danger and is normally physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to be certain that each and every client is fit to climb.
- Integrated the Jagged Globe site with the SendInBlue mail management system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help the company display the many pictures that the clients collect, we have developed an application to upload and manage clients’ pictures in bulk.
Custom Web Development for Online Retail in Chorleywood
As one of busiest online vendors of model railways and craft goods in the north of England, with a volume of orders to match, Rails of Sheffield needed us to create enterprise-level e-commerce.
Developed on the industry-leading 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 marketplace permits pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery timeframes. We have created a bespoke, 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 Rails of Sheffield’s two ebay shops.
Whatever you have to sell, we’d really love to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
Little Fire Digital helped build the online presence for West Sussex beauty clinic, Casafia, when they needed something personal. An ideal job for us; we collaborated with our client to create the logo and branding combining subtle colourways with sharp, stylish layout.
The website features online booking through the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system designed specifically for the beauty clinic market.
Pabau seamlessly works with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we designed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the lovingly created design of the main website. Mailing list subscription forms on the main website add users directly a Mailchimp mailing list and the customer is able to manage their preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the IRC client is built to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s usual chat platform.
Bespoke Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades away from their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had somehow managed to buy a site and start building the their new home ground on the same street, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was nearly completed but they had run out of money.
Under lunatic time pressure, Little Fire stepped up, worked like slaves to developed a standalone platform from which the club could issue bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It has been 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.”
