Quantock Horsebox Hire

23rd August 2021

Quantock Horsebox Hire required the ability for customers to check availability of the horsebox without needing to contact office staff as well as book and pay online, much like other market-leading car and van rental websites.

Using Stripe and Laravel we built a bespoke booking flow that captures the data required for a rental booking as well as handling both booking payments and security deposits.

Bucklebury Equestrian

6th January 2021

Bucklebury Equestrian came to us looking for a website refresh for their Berkshire based cross country and livery yard. They wanted visitors to be able to check the course status easily on the website to help ease the pressure on office staff answering the same questions daily.

We built a custom WordPress theme for Bucklebury that works across devices to ensure that all visitors to the website could see the information they were looking for. As part of the work we made subtle changes to their existing logo to help bring it up to date and compete within the fast paced equestrian industry.

We now provide ongoing support for the website as well as helping Bucklebury Equestrian run regular email updates to their extensive mailing list.

The Four Streets Project

30th June 2020

The Four Streets Project are a collective set up to support the homeless in Chichester who came to us with a brief to create an informative website to help publicise their cause, as well as a place to drive donations and awareness.

We worked within a tight budget and short timeframe to create a responsive website that worked across devices to enable all manner of users a pleasant browsing experience.

We helped The Four Streets Project to set up their PayPal for Charities account and then linked this to the site to allow visitors to donate in a safe and secure way. Donating through PayPal gave potential donors the reassurance they needed to know that the donation would make it safely to the charity.

Along with the website, we also created their updated logo which would be used on the website, social media accounts and in all future marketing materials. On completion we provided a pack containing all relevant logos and banner images for use on the main social media accounts.

Oakleaf Building

When Oakleaf Building came to us looking for professional images of their prestigious construction projects across Somerset we knew we had to pull out all the stops and produce brochure quality imagery that they could across social media, their printed marketing and website.

Over the past 3 years we have photographed and produced videos of all their projects, including the current progress updates of their latest mammoth renovation on the Quantock Hills.

There has been high levels of engagement on social media as well receiving great feedback from clients and architects. Even the guys on site seem to enjoy being on film!

Spoolit

Spoolit is an industry leading print management application that allows digital print studios to quote, manage and invoice their products. The in depth quoting system allows granular control over how product prices are calculated, right down to the cost of a staple.

This large scale application was rapidly prototyped to an MVP over the course of a few months with continuous tweaking from early users. Over the last 3 years new features have been implemented and existing features polished to leave us with an accurate and reliable system.

Spoolit now handles over £3m of quotes and sales per year and integrates with leading invoicing tools such as QuickBooks.

Team Bragg Eventing

Poplars Equestrian have been a longstanding client and during Alex’s rise to his 4* debut at Burghley in 2016 they required an updated website to reflect the new ‘Team Bragg’ branding. We built a new custom WordPress theme for them with a range of new features including individual horse profiles with external links to their BE results.

A new sponsorship page was created to help the team promote the benefits of sponsoring Alex, as well as ensuring that the site worked across devices as the majority of Team Bragg’s visitors were viewing from social media while on the go.

Due to the website being built on WordPress the Braggs have been able to keep the website up to date with the latest horses and news.

JM Eventing

Everyone has a dream in life, however some chase it harder than others. We’ve worked with Jo Marsh at JM Eventing since 2014 helping her to showcase her team of horses, share her knowledge through in depth news articles and to have a strong professional online presence.

We initially created her branding to use across social media and then created a bespoke WordPress theme that allowed her to keep her website updated without the need for costly development time. 

We have worked closely with Jo Marsh over the years and have also produced printed marketing materials such as large banners for around her yard. 

Leah Grange

Creating bespoke WordPress themes is our bread and butter and the theme for Leah Grange was no different. The majority of her visitors came from Instagram and the key was to get people engaged on the site with comments and post suggestions.

We set up reliable backend infrastructure for the website, hosting it on a scalable cloud server and utilising CloudFlare, HTTP2 and SSL to ensure that Google would rank the website highly as well as ensuring that load speeds were consistently high – did you know that 40% of users exit a webpage if it takes more than 3 seconds to load?

Since launching the new website organic search results have increased dramatically for Leah. We continue to work with Leah to improve areas of the site and ensure that the site stays running super fast.
