Bespoke Web Development in Leicestershire – Every Problem is Different, Every Solution is Unique
Your business and its opportunities are yours, until you tell us about them we can’t tell you anything meaningful about them. So, instead, here are few brief case studies to show some of the solutions we’ve delivered.
Web Development for Business Worldwide
Reaching for the Summit
From 1987 until today, Jagged Globe has been one of the foremost operators running mountaineering trips for customers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe organise trips for clients around the world.
Although we didn’t build the website but we’ve updated a huge number of projects, while retaining its original scheme and its stunning imagery.
It’s not been straightforward, to stay up to date we have had to:
- Redesign so that the Jagged Globe site meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS, we developed an interface for the Sagepay (Opayo) payment gateway to take deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking procedure. Existing clients can now book a expedition in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a application for recording client capacity. Climbing at high altitudes can be risky and is normally physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to be certain that each customer is safe to climb.
- Integrated the company’s website with the SendInBlue mail management system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help the company make best use of the many photos that the climbers collect, we have built tools to upload and manage clients’ photos in bulk.
Web Development for Online Retail in Market Harborough
As one of most successful online vendors of model railways and toys in the Country, with a volume of sales to match, Rails of Sheffield needed us to create an enterprise-level e-commerce solution.
Little Fire built a new website on the rock-solid Shopify system which has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site fixes a number of problems:
- The model railways market permits pre-orders with extraordinarily long delivery times. To allow this, we have created a on-off, bespoke pre-order basket and checkout using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. We coordinated teams of developers 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 Countrywide
When West Sussex medical aesthetics clinic, Casafia were looking to build their website, they came to the help of Little Fire {Digital Ltd}. This was a dream project for Little Fire; we collaborated with our client to develop the logo and branding which combines soft colours with crisp, modern layout.
The website features online booking through the Pabau CRM – a system created specifically for the beauty sector.
Pabau directly works with Mailchimp to handle customer communications 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 list and the user can change their contact preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the chat widget is integrated to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular text platform.
Unique Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a fix. They had years ejected from their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had finally managed to acquire a site and start building the their new home ground on the same street, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new stadium was nearly completed but they had run out of money.
Under near-impossible time pressure, Little Fire stepped forward, worked like fools to developed a bespoke platform from which AFC Wimbledon could issue bonds to raise money from their supporters.
It was the greatest fundraiser 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.”
