ToolPost website gets a face lift!

We were asked to take a good long hard look at a tired and dated website selling tools to the woodcarving sector, which is mainly made up of retired hobbyists. The site needed restructuring to make it easier to surf, and find products, whilst still supplying plenty of help and advice for newcomers to the craft.

Using a carefully chosen palette of colours which appeal to the target audience, and adapting the existing brand, we came up with a harmonious balance between good looks and information. An added news section on the home page gives the website a more personal feel with the blogging element introduced. We hope this will encourage people to get in touch with our client and get involved.

Beautiful and informative graphics lead the browser around and introduce them to areas of interest. A featured items area now introduces an element of selling, right from the first page. We even created a t-shirt design and mocked up samples to encourage sales in this direction.

This website design was undertaken on behalf of a third-party developer who uses us to create beautiful looking websites. The site is still under construction and we hope you come back for a link to view the finished product soon.

WTF Watch Time Fly – new store goes live

WTF Watch Time Fly is a quick and simple business startup with entry level eCommerce, built with big plans in mind. Our client wanted to get something online with the minimum amount of fuss, while keeping costs down as much as possible. So we created a juicy, fashionable and stylish website theme, using the popular blogging platform WordPress.

We monetised the site by integrating a Paypal shopping cart and easy-to-add buttons. The site has all the flexibility that WordPress is famous for and our client can easily add and edit products and pages himself using the inbuilt CMS.

We will also be looking after the SEO for the site and to that end, we have fully optimised the site and done all the usual submissions. As part of our ongoing duties we will be blogging, article writing, looking after social network feeds and so on.

Exhibition graphics for the Paris Airshow

One of our most exciting projects in July was designing the graphics for the FUCHS International exhibit at the Paris Airshow. As this exhibition was to be held in Paris and there was an extremely tight deadline, we had to ensure everything was right first time. So after liaising with the set designers and the printers, we created eye-catching graphics which fit the specifications of the pods, stands and backdrops exactly, resulting in fewer headaches for the exhibition builders on-site.

Our client was very pleased with the quality of our work, saying:

I’m just writing to pass on the many positive comments I have received from our colleagues from Paris, Germany and the UK who attended the Paris Airshow. The artwork you created looked stunning and my stand builder found the files you created very easy to work with. Great job well done.

An email marketing success story… in the making

As part of FUCHS’s ongoing email campaign strategy, we’re happy to announce another email campaign has been created and sent!

View online version

Adapting an existing email style previously created by us, we kept it clean and informative, with teaser stories to encourage readers to download a brochure or read the rest of the story online. It’s a great way to get more visitors to the website, where they will likely continue to browse for more information about FUCHS and their products.

It’s early days yet, as this campaign was only sent out today! But as there has been nearly 500 brochures downloaded and visits to FUCHS’s website already, it looks like it’s another email marketing success story… in the making!

World of Mosaics website – new design revealed

After over two years of successful trading, our client, World of Mosaics, decided that they needed a brand update. They wanted to keep the essence of their brand intact and to reflect their excellent reputation for providing quality products at competitive prices.

With this in mind we simply refreshed their logo. Their website, however, needed a complete overhaul, as their product list and client base has grown phenomenally over the last year or so. After a lot of hard work, we are very proud to announce the new site has now gone live.

Crammed with new functions, the website is streamlined and restructured to promote easy shopping. We think we’ve made it even easier for people to purchase with the least amount of fuss, right from the very first page!

What we’ve added:

  • Google language tool
  • Currency tool
  • Shopping basket at a glance
  • Simplified slideshow which links directly to the product shown
  • See all the collections in a category at a glance
  • Inspiration gallery which links directly to each product shown in the slideshow
  • Best sellers to promote product right from the first page
  • Easier navigation with streamlined header navigation with more comprehensive links in the footer
  • We’ve made it easier to follow World of Mosaics with popular social media
  • Add products directly to basket from the category page
  • 5-star ratings review system
  • Cross selling function to encourage the sale of matching products and accessories

Another important aspect of the changes we’ve incorporated in this website, is that we’ve paid close attention to optimising the site for improved SEO. We’ve added more areas where relevant keyword rich text can be added to enhance both the shopper’s experience and to improve the page’s rankings. We’ve also had our team of copywriters working hard on the site improving the copy across the whole of the site.
