Quickly Generate Sales

We'll do this by doing three things:

1. Build a modern looking website that matches the style of the products you sell, but also the design tastes of your customers. 

2. Figure out the best selling items you have and matching that with the most searched for items using Google and get those uploaded first.

3. Refine the site and constantly optimise it so it steers people towards making a purchase.

Your New Website

Having re-designed hundreds of websites in our 12 years and many being similar to your situation, there are several components to your site which would benefit you greatly.

Pages for the Site

Homepage

Your homepage needs to have an engaging headline, offers and email signup.

About

We suggest team photos and action shots of people working. 

Delivery

One of the most visited pages on an e-commerce website

Buyers Guides

In this day and age, it's vital to give away content and advice in advance
in order to "win people over" that you're the right company to buy from.
Obviously these will be written in favour of your company.

Search

Allowing your customers to intelligently search for the products they want

Categories

We will split your products up into categories and sub-categories.
This makes your site browsable in the same way a physical shop is.

Product Page

Good photos, quality human-written description, clear 'Add to cart' button, reviews
and a simple way to ask a question about that product.

Step 1  |  Design Interview

We need to get to the bottom of who you are, what you stand for and who you stand beside. Only then can we begin to create a design that portrays the value you offer in a way that resonates with the people who matter: the people you want to do business with.

Step 2  |  Design Presentation

Three new design concepts will be designed.
Naturally there will be a common theme, but we try to think outside the box and come up with something that isn't obvious.
This is often where the best ideas come from. 

We'll go through these options and decide which direction to take and any adjustments.

Step 3  |  Website Content

Now we have your design locked-in, we can begin to construct the website. Our copywriter will be in touch with you to help put your ideas down through the "voice" of your new brand. 

Any photos will need to be gathered at this stage.

Step 4  |  Website Build

Using everything we've gathered, your website is built.
Once it's done, we'll present it to you and go through the details in accordance with the objectives originally set.

Any amends are made at this stage.

Step 5  |  Launch

The launch process is a carefully considered one. We need to ensure email addresses don't go down, the site doesn't have any downtime, any old links are re-directed to the new pages and several other things. 

This is something we've done hundreds of times before. We operate to a checklist which we've curated over the years and it's not failed us once.

We always launch late on a Friday night to give us the best chance of getting any issues ironed out. You can sleep easy knowing we'll be on-call over your launch weekend to ensure everything goes according to plan.

Total development time from start to finish:
8-10 weeks

Case Study

Problem

ABC Legal Company needed a re-brand and a new website. They'd been around for over 20 years and operated with the same marketing material they started with. The only new business enquiries were from referrals. They had a website but it hadn't been touched in over 10 years.

Proposed Solution

Re-brand the company. Same name, but new logo and colour scheme along with a new website with an emphasis put on bringing in new leads.

Result :

After 8 weeks of launching the new site, they'd gone from 1 new lead a week from the website to an average of 9 each week. On average, they were converting 1 in 5 enquiries.

At this current rate that means instead of bringing on 1 new client every 5 weeks, they're bringing in 1 new client every 4 days. ABC Legal Companies's Managing Partner had this to say:

"I'm honestly shocked at these results.

The new website has surpassed all expectations and has paid for itself in the first few weeks alone. This is so exciting.

Pricing Strategy

Our pricing is set in a way that it won't actually cost you anything. Our guarantee makes sure that if it doesn't work then you don't pay.

Our Strategy for this is Two-Fold:

1. We don't take on every client. We've become very good at assessing whether we can help companies and we are very excited about helping you.

2. We grab the low hanging fruit available first. These funds pay back your investment as quick as possible. 

"I LOVE OUR NEW WEBSITE.

I'm ASTOUNDED AT THE IMPROVEMENT TO OUR SALES AND OUR SOCIAL HAS IMPROVED TOO!"

Annie Malloy - Marketing Director

Our Guarantee to You

We have deal that no-one can beat.

With most business purchases, there's risk attached.
We want to completely remove that risk from, you and place it on ourselves. If we don't do what we say, then you shouldn't pay.

Here's how it works

The entire purpose of this project is to increase the revenue of the business by way of sales from an online store.

So here is our personal guarantee to you:

"If your website hasn't paid for itself in revenue in 4 months of launch then you don't pay"

We will either refund you in full and you can keep the website, or you can have a credit note with us for the full value of the website as detailed on the Investment page.

The only caveat to this is not delaying content and things we need from you, in addition, not taking our advice.

Terms & Conditions

USER DISCLAIMER (PLEASE DELETE): This agreement may not be suitable for your circumstances and we recommend you seek legal advice before using it. Better Proposals does not take any responsibility for any events that arise as a result of your use of this agreement.

Summary

You, [customer name] are hiring [designer] located at [address] to design and develop a website for the estimated total price of [price] outlined in our previous correspondence. 

As my customer, you have the power and ability to enter into this contract on behalf of your company or organization. You agree to provide me with everything that I need to complete the project including text, images, fonts and other information as and when I need it, and in the format that I ask for. You agree to review my work, provide feedback, and sign-off approval in a timely manner and are bound by any deadlines that we set together. You also agree to keep to the payment schedule set out in this proposal.

I have the experience and ability to perform the services you need and I will carry them out in a professional and timely manner. I will endeavour to meet all the deadlines set, but am not responsible for a missed launch date or a deadline if you have been late in supplying materials or have not approved my work on time at any stage. I will also maintain the confidentiality of any information that you give me.

Details of the works

I will create designs for the look, layout, and functionality of your website. This contract includes one main design and two opportunities for you to make revisions to the final design. If you are not happy with the design at that point, I will provide you with an additional quote for extra design work needed. If instead you wish to cancel our agreement, you may do so and I will retain the initial payment for the work completed to date.

HTML/CSS layout templates

I will develop using valid HTML5 markup and CSS3 for styling. I will test all my markup and CSS in current versions of all major browsers including those made by Apple, Microsoft, Mozilla, Google and Opera. I will also test to ensure that pages will display visually in a similar—not necessarily an identical—way in Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 for Windows as this browser is now past its sell-by date.

I will not test these templates in old or abandoned browsers, for example Microsoft Internet Explorer 5, 5.5 or 6 for Windows or Mac, previous versions of Apple's Safari, Mozilla Firefox or Opera unless otherwise specified.

Text content

I am not responsible for writing or inputting any text copy. I will be happy to help, but significant work on my part will result in a charge above and beyond the original price. This will not be done without your approval of an additional quote provided in advance.

Photographs

If needed, you will supply me photographs either in digital or printed format. If you choose to buy stock photographs that price will be added to the initial quote. Stock photography will not be purchased without your written approval.

Changes and revisions

The estimate/quotation prices in this proposal are based on the time I estimate I will need to accomplish everything that you have told me you want to achieve. If you do want to change your mind, add extra pages or templates, or even add new functionality, that won't be a problem. At that time you will be provided with an additional quote for the extra work.

Technical support

As agreed, the quote provided includes the installation and set up of your site on your server as well as the implementation of Google Analytics. Updates to, and management of that server, plus any support issues will be up to you.

I do not offer or include technical support for website hosting, email, or other services relating to website hosting. If you do require help with anything beyond the design and development of your site, I will be happy to help.

Legal

I am not liable to you or any third party for damages, including lost profits, lost savings, or other incidental, consequential or special damages arising out of the operation of or inability to operate this website and any other web pages—even if you have advised me of the possibilities of such damages.

If any provision of this agreement shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from this agreement and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Copyrights

You guarantee to me that any elements of text, graphics, photos, designs, trademarks, or other artwork that you provide me for inclusion in the website are either owned by you, or that you have permission to use them.

When I receive your final payment, copyright is automatically assigned as follows:

You own the graphics and other visual elements that I create for you for this project. I will give you a copy of all files and you should store them carefully as I am not required to keep them or provide any native source files that I used in making them.

You also own text content, photographs, and other data you provided, unless someone else owns them. I own the HTML markup, CSS, and other code and I license it to you for use on only this project.

I also reserve the right to display and link to your completed project as part of my portfolio and to write about the project on websites, in magazine articles, and in books.

Payments

As agreed, our payment schedule will be as follows, but may be revised based on further conversations between us.

[x%] of total fee upon agreement of initial design: [deposit fee]

[x%] of total on delivery of the website (pre-snagging): [second fee]

[x%] of total fee on completion of the project: [balance]

Interest accrued if payment is more than 14 days late is 5% of outstanding amount to be added every 7 days, starting from 15th day after receipt of finished product.

You cannot transfer this contract to anyone else without my permission. This contract stays in place and need not be renewed. If for some reason one part of this contract becomes invalid or unenforceable, the remaining parts of it remain in place.
