We were approached by a company that wanted to sell turf and grass seed products online. Since the cost of turf is dependant on the quantity ordered and location of delivery, a custom calculator had to be built. This uses a postcode method to determine the delivery zone, and a further lookup to find the cost based on the quantity ordered. This is yet another example of a truly bespoke site for a client.

Richard was recommended by another client and was looking for a way to showcase his vast collection of antiquities. After getting to know a little more about his world, we went away wondering how we could work his 'Mole Logo' idea into a professional looking site. We are please to say (and i'm sure he is too) that we managed it just fine. An added bonus of the site was that within a few days it had paid for itself when someone who had visited a trade fair took a look online and got basket happy!

We were approached to help this company after they had become stuck with a company that was updating the site for them. Not only was it expensive, but the site looked bad and was not getting the required sales. After implementing a fresh design and giving them complete control of the site themselves, the site has gone from strength to strength.
