Vantage Windows & Conservatories based in Spalding, Lincolnshire had very specific requirements from the outset to complement their business philosophy which is to publish their prices for a huge range of windows, doors, screens and conservatories in white, rosewood and cherry uPVC. The Directors of Vantage asked for visitors to the site to be able to price up their uPVC requirements.
The Directors wanted to get across the message that they are experts in the field of double glazing and asked for an Articles section and a Blog to which they could write and add articles and blogs at their leisure. |

The Problem
|
Vantage Windows & Conservatories was a brand new website. The Directors requested the facility to publish their prices for a huge range of windows, doors, screens and conservatories on their website. The business philosophy is to cut out the commission salesman and for clients to be able to price up their own uPVC requirements without the need for a salesman to call.
The Directors wanted to get across the knowledge that they had acquired over the years working in the industry. |

Our Solution
|
This was a particularly complex website due to the fact that there were so many sizes, uPVC colours and styles that had to be matched up with the prices. The design work was also complex and challenging as each of the window, door, screen and conservatory images are bespoke.
To make it easy for clients to price up their requirements, we suggested a Wishlist to calculate the cost of their requirements by adding them to the Wishlist.
To solve the problem in respect of the Directors being able to share with their clients their accumulated knowledge, we created an Articles, section. With the inclusion of a Content Management System, the Directors are able to add Aricles together with an image at their leisure. |

Testimonial

Christine from Vantage Windows & Conservatories had this to say
Knew you guys were up to the challenge. Thanks for taking the time to create all those bespoke window, screen, door and conservatory images. I'm sure this must have driven you crazy!
The website has been up and running for a year or so now. We are delighted what a huge benefit it has been to making our business the success it is - even in these challenging economic credit crunch times.
Visitors to the site really like the idea of being able to price up their uPVC project which is, obviously a first within the double glazing industry.
We are also delighted that you have programmed the site to enable up-dates in respect of price changes to be easily sorted out.
Thanks for the brilliant website. |
