Reviews
Very happy with the quality of work delivered. 5/5 Arguably a leading online marketing company in Kent; Steve Elson, Julian, Rob and Debbie continue to deliver measurable results time and time again. Working miracles with tight budgets and even tighter deadlines. The team really know how search engine marketing works. I have no problem recommending and/or using for future projects.
I'm not one to blow anyone's trumpet, but these web developers are a dream team for us!
These Kent eCommerce website developers really know how search engine marketing works; working wonders with my new eCommerce website (coming soon!!!)
Their company our motto is 'web marketing works' and they live up to expectation. They've successfully integrated all the bells & whistles into a fantastic new shopping experience that exceeds all expectations.

Describe how you manage projects from the initial client contact to completion and handover.
Signature Image Consultants:
”Telephone conversation with client followed up with an email summary of their business needs and ballpark prices. We'd then move onto a fact finding meeting with client to come with a detailed specification. We'd appoint a project manager and provide client with an estimate of costs, functional specification and lead time for development and sign-off stages. One approved we'd produce wire frames for all webpages which once approved would be handed over to our designers to produce colour visuals which would need approval. Once approved the project is handed over to our web development team and the site would be developed on a test server. Once approved site will go live and we will help client market their website online.”
