The ‘Find it in Sandwell’ website is believed to be the first local business trading website of its kind in the UK. An initiative by Sandwell Council, along with their partners at the Black Country Chamber of Commerce, the website was set up with the aim of boosting the estimated 10,000 businesses in the Borough of Sandwell. Developed by us here at IceBlue, the website’s aim is to link buyers’ requirements with potential local suppliers. Companies can find and post details of business opportunities in the area, as well as taking advantage of the free recruitment services, support and advice. The result is an exciting, free online resource, which saw over £20 million-worth of business opportunities posted within the first 48 hours of being launched.

EBC Group Ltd is a well-established Information Technology and Communications Company, based in the West Midlands. The EBC Group approached us with the challenge of rebuilding and transforming their previous site into a competitive and successful marketing tool. As suppliers of printers, copiers and fax machines, it was important that the EBC Group’s website ranked highly in search engines – which we helped to achieve. As well as our search engine optimisation work, which has greatly benefited the business, the site now has a wealth of information regarding business solutions and support. The site got a stylish reworking, too, with Flash animation added to achieve a professional and slick feel.
