Web Development in Richmond upon Thames – A Solution for Every Problem
Your business is yours and you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are some micro examples to demonstrate some of the wins Little Fire have achieved.
Custom Web Development for Businesses Worldwide
Aiming High
For over 35 years, Jagged Globe has been the leading firm running mountaineering adventures for climbers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe organise trips for clients globally.
Although we didn’t build the website but we’ve done a huge number of projects, while keeping the original design and its stunning photography.
It’s not been simple, to stay up to date we have:
- Make the Jagged Globe 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 client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking system. Existing customers can now book a adventure in as few as 5 clicks.
- Developed a system for recording client health. Climbing in the wilderness is not without danger and is often physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to be certain that each client is safe to travel.
- Integrated the Jagged Globe website with the SendInBlue mail management platform so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help the client display the many photos that the customers collect, we have built systems to upload and manage customers’ pictures in bulk.
Custom Web Development for Online Retail in Kew Green
Rails of Sheffield, are one of largest vendors of model railways and hobbies in the country – with a volume of orders to match. When they came to Little Fire, we needed to deliver an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
Little Fire delivered a new website on the market-leading Shopify platform which has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site fixes a number of problems:
- The model railways marketplace has pre-orders with exceptionally 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 coordinated teams of developers to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and Rails of Sheffield’s two ebay stores.
Whatever you‘re selling, we’d like to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
When Worthing beauty clinic, Casafia were looking to go online, they asked for the help of Little Fire {Digital}. This was a dream task for Little Fire; we collaborated with the client to create the logo and branding which features subtle colourways with crisp, modern design.
The website features online booking through the Pabau CRM – a system developed for the medical aesthetics market.
Pabau is directly integrated with Mailchimp to handle client communications so we completed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the lovingly created design of the corporate site. Mailing list sign up forms on the main site add customers directly a Mailchimp list and the client is able to manage their settings without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the chat widget works with Facebook Messenger – our client’s preferred chat platform.
Custom Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a fix. They had years dispossessed of their historical home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to purchase a site and start building the their new home ground on the same street, Plough Lane, in Wimbledon.
The new stadium was almost finished but they had run out of money.
Under mad time pressure, we stepped forward and worked like fools and developed a standalone platform from which the club could issue bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It turned out to be the greatest fundraising effort in the history of the English football league, and Little Fire Digital Limited 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.”
