Your business and its challenges are yours, until you share them with us we can’t tell you anything meaningful about them. So, instead, here are few quick case studies to demonstrate some of the wins Little Fire have achieved.
Custom Web Development for Global Business
Reaching for the Top
Since 1987, Jagged Globe has been the foremost firm running high-altitude expeditions for climbers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe organise expeditions for customers worldwide.
We didn’t construct the website but we have done a great deal, while keeping its original scheme with its stunning imagery.
It’s not been simple, to stay up to date we have had to:
- Redevelop so that the Jagged Globe site meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) DSS, we developed an interface for the Sagepay (Opayo) payment gateway to take client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the booking system. Returning customers can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Developed a application for recording customer capacity. Climbing at high altitudes is not without danger and is often physically demanding – Jagged Globe need to be confident that each client is fit to travel.
- Integrated the company’s site with the SendInBlue mail management platform so the mailing lists are completely GDPR compliant.
- To help the client display the many images that the clients collect, we have developed tools to upload and manage clients’ photos in bulk.
Custom Web Development for Online Retail in Milford on Sea
Rails of Sheffield, are one of largest online retailers of model railways and craft goods in the country – with a volume of orders to match. When they came to us, we needed to deliver enterprise-level e-commerce.
Built on the rock-solid Shopify system, the new Rails of Sheffield site 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 timeframes. We have created a custom, bespoke pre-order basket and checkout using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. Little Fire Digital Ltd 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.
Web Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
Little Fire Digital helped build the website for West Sussex medical aesthetics clinic, Casafia, when they needed something personal. This was a perfect task for us; we collaborated with our client to create the logo and branding which features subtle colourways and clean, modern layout.
The website integrates with the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system developed specifically for the medical aesthetics market.
Pabau is built to seamlessly work with Mailchimp to handle client communications so we built the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact design of the main site. Mailing list subscription forms on the main website add users directly a Mailchimp mailing list and the customer is able to change their preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the IRC client works with Facebook Messenger – our client’s preferred chat platform.
Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades ejected from their historical home ground, Plough Lane, and had somehow managed to buy a site and start building the their new home ground on the same road, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was almost finished but they had run out of money.
Under insane time pressure, we stepped in and worked like fools to delivered a unique platform from which the Dons could sell bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It has been the greatest fundraiser 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.”
