Custom Web Development in Telford and Wrekin – A Solution for Every Problem
Your business is your own and you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are some micro examples to show some of the problems Little Fire have managed to fix.
Bespoke Website Development for International Business
Aiming for the Top
Since 1987, Jagged Globe has been one of the leading operators organising mountaineering expeditions for clients. They were the first English company to organise a professionally-led expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe organise trips for clients worldwide.
Although we didn’t construct the Jagged Globe website but we’ve completed a huge number of projects, whilst preserving its original design with its stunning imagery.
It hasn’t been simple, over the years we have had to:
- Make the website meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) regulations, we coded for the Sagepay (Opayo) online payment gateway to take client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking system. Existing clients can now book a expedition in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a procedure for recording customer fitness. Climbing mountains can be risky and is normally physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to be confident that each client is safe to climb.
- Integrated the Jagged Globe website with the SendInBlue email marketing platform so the mailing lists are completely GDPR compliant.
- To help the client show the many pictures that the clients collect, we have built an application to upload and manage climbers’ pictures in bulk.
Bespoke Web Development for Online Retail in Oakengates
As one of largest online vendors of model railways and toys in the Country, with a volume of sales to match, Rails of Sheffield needed Little Fire to develop enterprise-level e-commerce.
Developed on the market-leading Shopify platform, 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 marketplace has pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery timeframes. We have created a custom, distinct pre-order system using javascript integrated directly into the Shopify framework.
- Stock management and order fulfilment is processed using Peoplevox. Little Fire Digital Limited coordinated development teams to get Peoplevox talking to Shopify and Rails of Sheffield’s two ebay shops.
Whatever you have to sell, we’d love to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
Little Fire Digital constructed the online presence for Worthing beauty clinic, Casafia, when they needed something personal. This was an ideal project for Little Fire; we collaborated with our client to develop the logo and branding combining subtle colourways with clean, stylish design.
The website integrates with the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system created specifically for the beauty clinic sector.
Pabau seamlessly works with Mailchimp to handle client communications so we designed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the lovingly created design of the main website. Mailing list sign up forms on the main site add clients directly a Mailchimp mailing list and the client can update their contact preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the chat widget is integrated to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular chat platform.
Custom Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had years robbed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had at last managed to acquire a site and start building the their new home ground on the same road, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new stadium was about to be finished but they had run out of money.
Under insane time pressure, we stepped in, worked like fools and created them a bespoke platform from which AFC Wimbledon could issue bonds to raise money from their supporters.
It has been the greatest fundraiser 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.”
