Interview
We interview your sales team and your actual customers, look at your sales data, and pull the search and social demand data. We’re after what buyers do, not what anyone assumes they do.
Website development, Christchurch
By the time a buyer calls, they’ve already decided.
They’ve checked your prices or read the spec sheet, made sure you deliver to them, sent a page to a colleague and quietly ruled out two of your competitors. None of that shows up in your enquiry form. All of it happens on your website.
So the job isn’t a brochure. It’s a website that explains what you sell clearly enough for buyers to decide, and connects to the systems behind your business, like stock, ordering or bookings.
Our web design and development team builds and hosts every site from our Christchurch studio, so a change goes live in days, not weeks.

Is your website winning work?
What we check before sending ads to a client’s site, to find where yours is losing enquiries. Test some answers on your phone as you go. Your result shows straight away, no email needed.
Four stages, every time
The same method runs through all four services. What changes is what comes out the other end.
Map
Who’s involved in the decision, what matters to each of them and what’s holding them back. We write it down and agree it with you.
Position
What you say, to whom, and why they should believe it, with the proof to back up each claim.

The strategy becomes a working brief your team and ours build from, and the benchmark we measure results against.

FAQ
The things people ask before they start.
The questions we get asked most before a website project starts.
How long does a website build take?
It depends on the size of the site and how quickly the content comes together. Online stores and sites that connect to other systems take a bit longer. You’ll get a timeline before we start, and we’ll tell you early if anything changes.
Do we have to do brand strategy first?
No. Plenty of clients come to us for a website first. If your brand is clear and your logo files are in good shape, we can get started straight away. If we think your message needs work first, we’ll say so, because a new website won’t fix that on its own.
What does it cost?
Every website is different, so we quote each one on what it needs. The price depends on how many pages you need, whether you sell online, and what the site has to connect to. Before we start, you’ll get a quote that spells out what’s included, so there are no surprises later.
Can you connect it to our ERP or stock system?
Usually, yes. We connect websites to the systems businesses already run: stock and inventory, ordering, bookings, payments, customer databases and email marketing tools. That includes platforms such as Cin7 for stock and pricing. Tell us what you use and we’ll check what’s possible before you commit to anything.
Can our team update it themselves?
Yes. We set your site up so your team can change text, photos and products without calling us, and we show you how. For bigger changes, or if you’d rather not do it yourselves, we’re happy to do it for you.
What do we actually get at the end?
Often WordPress, with WooCommerce when you sell online. We also build on Shopify, and connect sites to systems such as Cin7. We’ll recommend the platform that suits how your business sells, and explain why.
