Bespoke Web Development for Business Worldwide
Aiming High
For over 35 years, Jagged Globe has been one of the foremost company organising high-altitude adventures for climbers. They were the first English company to organise a professionally-run attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe serve climbers around the world.
Although we didn’t build the website but we have updated a huge number of projects. All while preserving the original scheme and its beautiful imagery.
It hasn’t been straightforward, to stay up to date we have:
- Redesign so that the Jagged Globe site meets Google’s mobile-friendly standard.
- To meet the PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements, we implemented the Sagepay (Opayo) payment system to take deposits online.
- Completely redesigned the booking interface. Returning clients can now book a trip in as few as 5 clicks.
- Implemented a application for recording client capacity. Climbing mountains can be dangerous and is typically physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to know that each and every client is fit to explore.
- Integrated the company’s site with the SendInBlue email marketing system so the mailing lists are completely GDPR compliant.
- To help the client display the many pictures that the customers collect, we have developed tools to upload and manage customers’ pictures in bulk.
Unique Web Development for Online Retail in Sidcup
Amongst the most successful online vendors of model railways and toys in the Country, with a volume of sales to match, Rails of Sheffield needed Little Fire to provide enterprise-level e-commerce.
Little Fire delivered a new website on the industry-leading Shopify platform which has provided the much-needed stability to allow Rails of Sheffield to grow.
The new site fixes a number of problems:
- The model railways marketplace involves pre-orders with extraordinarily long delivery timeframes. We have created a bespoke, bespoke 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 shops.
Whatever you‘re selling, we’d really like to hear from you.
Web Development for
New Businesses Countrywide
Little Fire Digital constructed the website for Worthing beauty clinic, Casafia, when they needed something unique. A perfect task for us; we collaborated with the client to develop the logo and branding which combines subtle colourways and clean, stylish layout.
The website integrates with the Pabau CRM – a system created for the medical aesthetics sector.
Pabau is smoothly integrated with Mailchimp to handle customer communications so we designed the Pabau email templates so that they matched the lovingly created design of the main site. Mailing list sign up forms on the website add customers straight to a Mailchimp mailing list and the user can update their contact preferences without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep communication simple, the IRC widget plugs straight into Facebook Messenger – our client’s preferred text platform.
Bespoke Web Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades away from their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had at last managed to purchase a site and start building the their new stadium on the same road, Plough Lane, in Wimbledon.
The new stadium was almost finished but they had run out of money.
Under lunatic time pressure, Little Fire stepped in and worked like slaves to delivered a one-off platform from which the Dons could issue bonds and raise money from their supporters.
It was the most successful fundraising effort 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.”
