Approach

How we look at a business, how we position it, and how we design and build.

How we look at a business

Start with the business, not the brief
A request for a new website is often a symptom. We look at how customers find you, what they understand and where they drop off before we propose anything.
Numbers before opinions
We ask for what the business already knows: enquiries, bookings, where customers come from. Then we look for what those numbers are not showing.
Fix the leak before adding traffic
More visitors do not help a business that loses them at the first question. We find where enquiries are lost before recommending anything that brings more.
The smallest change that closes the gap
Sometimes the answer is a website. Sometimes it is a clearer offer, a booking system or a better process.

How we position it

Most businesses are better than their own description
A company’s record is usually stronger than the way it describes itself. The first job is to find what is already true and say it clearly.
Position on what a competitor cannot copy
Years, people and named work belong to one business. Adjectives are available to everyone.
Choose the customer
A business that speaks to everyone is heard by no one in particular. We decide who the page is for before deciding what it says.
Plain words
If a sentence would not be said across a desk, it does not go on the page.

How we design and build

Design for both ends of the page
A page is used by the customer and by whoever answers them. A request should reach your office with what is needed to act on it.
Show the real thing
Plans, menus and working forms tell a customer more than stock photographs and slogans.
Built for everyone
Every site works on a phone, by keyboard, and for visitors who have asked for less motion.
Yours to keep
You own what we build, at one price agreed in writing before work starts.
