Little Fire Digital for Bespoke Web Development in Kent
The team at Little Fire have been authoring bespoke websites nationwide for many years. We’ve resolved a lot of complex problems and created some great solutions.
Amongst our projects, our team have: written stock management systems for a Sheffield supermarket franchise, integrated the Brightpearl order fulfilment system with custom websites, created custom products to sell maps from Google maps, bonds to help finish AFC Wimbledon’s Plough Lane Stadium; and a simplified checkout page to sell mountaineering expeditions online.
Bespoke Web Development in Kent – Every Project is Different, Every Solution is Unique
Your business and its challenges are yours, until you tell us about them we can’t tell you anything meaningful about them. So, instead, here are some brief examples to demonstrate some of the problems Little Fire have managed to resolve.
Bespoke Website Development for Business Worldwide
Aiming for the Peaks
Since 1987, Jagged Globe has been one of the leading operators organising mountaineering expeditions for clients. They were the first British company to organise a professionally-run attempt on Everest. Jagged Globe serve customers worldwide.
We didn’t design the Jagged Globe website but we’ve completed a huge number of projects, while retaining its original design with its stunning photography.
It hasn’t been simple, to stay up to date we have:
- Make the website meets Google’s mobile-friendly requirements.
- To meet the emerging PCI (Payment Card Industry) requirements, we coded for the Sagepay (Opayo) online payment system to take client deposits online.
- Massively simplified the booking procedure. Returning clients can now book a adventure in as few as 5 clicks.
- Implemented a procedure for recording climber fitness. Climbing at high altitudes is not without risk and is normally physically exacting – Jagged Globe need to be confident that each and every climber is safe to explore.
- Integrated the company’s site with the SendInBlue mail management platform so the mailing lists are fully GDPR compliant.
- To help Jagged Globe make best use of the many pictures that the clients collect, we have built an application to upload and manage climbers’ images in bulk.
Web Development for e-commerce in Swanscombe
As one of most successful online vendors of model railways and craft goods in the North, with a volume of orders to match, Rails of Sheffield needed us to develop enterprise-level e-commerce.
Little Fire built a new site on the industry-leading Shopify platform which has proven to be the solution they need.
The new site meets a number of challenges:
- The model railway marketplace involves pre-orders with very long delivery times. To accommodate this, we have created a custom, separate pre-order system 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 shops.
Whatever you have to sell, we’d really like to hear from you.
Website Development for
New Businesses Nationwide
When Worthing medical aesthetics practice, Casafia were looking to build their website, they came to the help of Little Fire {Digital}. This was a dream project for us; we worked with our client to design the logo and branding combining soft colours with sharp, stylish design.
The website features online booking through the Pabau Customer Relationship Management System – a system designed for the beauty sector.
Pabau is built to directly work with Mailchimp to handle customer communications so we built the Pabau email templates so that they matched the exact design of the main site. Mailing list sign up forms on the site add users directly a Mailchimp list and the user is able to manage their settings without ever leaving casafia.com.
To keep things simple, the IRC client works with Facebook Messenger – our client’s preferred text platform.
Custom Website Development for Fundraising
AFC Wimbledon were in a bind. They had decades robbed of their traditional home ground, Plough Lane, and had amazingly managed to purchase a site and start building the their new stadium on the same road, Plough Lane, in Wimbledon.
The new stadium was nearly completed but they had run out of money.
Under lunatic time pressure, Little Fire stepped in, worked like slaves and delivered a bespoke 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 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.”
