Custom Web Development in North Somerset – Every Challenge is Different, Every Solution is Unique
Your business is your own and you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are few quick 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 foremost company organising high-altitude trips for clients. They were the first English company to organise a professionally-led expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe serve clients globally.
Although we didn’t build the Jagged Globe website but we’ve done a great deal, whilst keeping the original scheme with its stunning imagery.
It’s not been without difficulty, over the years we have had to:
- Make the Jagged Globe website meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS, we developed an interface for the Sagepay (Opayo) payment gateway to take client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the booking procedure. Existing clients can now book a expedition in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a procedure for recording customer health. Climbing in the wilderness can be risky and is often physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to be confident that each climber is fit to travel.
- Integrated the website with the SendInBlue email marketing system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe display the many photos that the climbers collect, we have developed tools to upload and manage clients’ photos in bulk.
Custom Web Development for Online Retail in Locking
As one of busiest online vendors of model railways and craft goods in the North, with a volume of sales to match, Rails of Sheffield needed us to develop enterprise-level e-commerce.
Developed on the rock-solid Shopify system, the new Rails of Sheffield website has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site fixes a number of problems:
- The model railway market has pre-orders with very long delivery times. To allow this, we have created a on-off, separate 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 stores.
Whatever you‘re selling, we’d really like to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
Little Fire Digital built the online presence for Worthing beauty clinic, Casafia, when they needed something unique. A dream task for Little Fire; we collaborated with our client to design the logo and branding which features soft colours with sharp, stylish design.
The website integrates with the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system created specifically for the medical aesthetics market.
Pabau is smoothly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we completed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the main website. Mailing list sign up forms on the site add users straight to a Mailchimp mailing list and the user is able to update their settings without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the chat widget is integrated to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s usual text platform.
Custom Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades robbed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to purchase a site and start building the their new home ground on the same road, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was about to be finished but they had run out of money.
Under lunatic time pressure, we stepped up, worked like slaves to delivered a bespoke platform from which AFC Wimbledon could sell bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It has been the most successful fundraising effort in the history of the English 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.”
