In our history, Little Fire have: authored stock control systems for a Sheffield supermarket chain, integrated the Brightpearl Retail Operating System with bespoke websites, created custom products to sell maps from Google maps, bonds to help build the Plough Lane Stadium for AFC Wimbledon; and a streamlined checkout application to sell mountaineering expeditions online.
Bespoke Web Development in Cornwall – A Solution for Every Project
Your business is yours, you’ll know more about it than we can guess at. So, instead, here are few quick case studies to demonstrate some of the problems Little Fire have managed to fix.
Website Development for Business Worldwide
Aiming for the Peaks
From the late 1980s until today, Jagged Globe has been one of the leading operators running mountaineering adventures for customers. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run expedition to Everest. Jagged Globe serve climbers globally.
We didn’t build the website but we have done a great deal, while keeping its original design and its stunning imagery.
It hasn’t been simple, to stay up to date we have had to:
- Redevelop so that the site meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements, we implemented the Sagepay (Opayo) payment system to take deposits online.
- Massively simplified the online booking system. Returning clients can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Wrote a procedure for recording climber fitness. Climbing at high altitudes is not without risk and is normally physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to know that each and every client is fit to explore.
- Integrated the Jagged Globe website with the SendInBlue email marketing system so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe display the many pictures that the clients collect, we have implemented tools to upload and manage customers’ photos in bulk.
Custom Web Development for e-commerce in Saint Austell
Rails of Sheffield, are one of largest online vendors of model railways and toys in the country – with a volume of orders to match. When they came to Little Fire, we needed to deliver enterprise-level e-commerce.
Developed on the industry-leading Shopify platform, the new Rails of Sheffield site has provided the much-needed stability to allow the business to grow.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railways market involves pre-orders with very long delivery times. 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 the client’s two ebay stores.
Whatever you have to sell, we’d really love to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
Little Fire Digital built the website for Worthing beauty practice, Casafia, when they needed something a little different. This was an ideal project for Little Fire; we collaborated with our client to develop the logo and branding featuring subtle colours with clean, modern design.
The website integrates with the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system developed for the beauty clinic market.
Pabau is directly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer emails so we completed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the lovingly created design of the main site. Mailing list sign up forms on the main website add users directly a Mailchimp list and the client can update their preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the IRC widget plugs straight into Facebook Messenger – our client’s usual chat platform.
Custom Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a fix. They had decades robbed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had finally managed to purchase a site and start building the their new home ground on the same street, Plough Lane, in South London.
The new ground was nearly completed but they had run out of money.
Under insane time pressure, Little Fire Digital stepped forward and worked like fools and delivered a one-off platform from which the club could issue bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It was the most successful fundraising project 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.”
