Web Development in Ore – Every Problem is Unique, Every Solution Different
Your business and its issues are yours, until you tell us about them we can’t tell you anything meaningful about them. So, instead, here are some quick examples to show some of the wins Little Fire Digital Limited have achieved.
Bespoke Web Development for Business Worldwide
Aiming High
Since the late 1980s, Jagged Globe has been one of the foremost firm running high-altitude expeditions for climbers. They were the first English company to organise a professionally-run expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe organise adventures for clients globally.
We didn’t build the Jagged Globe website but we’ve done a great deal, while keeping its original design and its impressive imagery.
It’s not been simple, to stay up to date we have:
- Ensure the website meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) regulations, we developed an interface for the Sagepay (Opayo) payment system to take client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking system. Returning climbers can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a procedure for recording client fitness. Climbing at high altitudes can be dangerous and is typically physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to know that each climber is fit to explore.
- Integrated the Jagged Globe website with the SendInBlue mail management system so the mailing lists are completely GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe make best use of the many pictures that the clients collect, we have built systems to upload and manage customers’ photos in bulk.
Web Development for e-commerce in Ore
Rails of Sheffield, are amongst the largest online vendors of model railways and hobbies in the North of England – with a volume of sales to match. When they came to Little Fire Digital Ltd, we needed to deliver enterprise-level e-commerce.
Little Fire delivered a new site on the rock-solid Shopify system which has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railways marketplace permits pre-orders with exceptionally long delivery timeframes. To manage this, we have created a bespoke, 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 love to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
Little Fire Digital constructed the website for West Sussex medical aesthetics clinic, Casafia, when they needed something personal. This was an ideal task for us; we worked with the client to create the logo and branding featuring subtle colours with crisp, modern design.
The website integrates with the Pabau CRM – a system developed for the medical aesthetics market.
Pabau is seamlessly integrated with Mailchimp to handle client communications so we built the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact branding of the main site. Mailing list subscription forms on the main site add users straight to a Mailchimp list and the customer can update their settings without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the IRC client is integrated to work with Facebook Messenger – our client’s regular text platform.
Bespoke Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a spot of bother. They had decades robbed of their historical home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to buy 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 up and worked like slaves to delivered a standalone platform from which the club could sell bonds to 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.”
