A brand new website for a new company has recently gone live. The Sales Development Company is a new venture from the same people of One WorkPLAYce (read more>) and provides expert consultancy for improving sales performance.

The website, designed and developed by Beaver Design, follows the same contemporary brand styles as One WorkPLAYce, using similar menus, shapes and imagery – however you’ll notice that it uses a boldly different colour palette.

The new website provides the Sales Development Company with a professional point of contact on the web, working alongside their upcoming social media tools like Twitter and Facebook.

Would you like to save 50% on some great restaurants? Well that’s what you get with The Phantom Card – a membership which gives you great discounts at hundreds of venues. Beaver Design has worked closely with The Phantom Card over recent months to develop the website for this special discount card.

The new website is stylish, clear and easy to use and the layout is simple, with information presented in a clear and concise way. As well as giving information about the card and its corporate benefits, a main feature of the site is the venue map.

Venue Map

With some straight-forward filters and search boxes, members of The Phantom Card can find a variety of great venues to use their discount with the online Venue Map and site users can search via a postcode, the type of venue they want and so on.

This venue map system is managed and kept up-to-date by The Phantom Card, using a custom built content management system from Beaver. This means that The Phantom Card can add and amend venues whenever they need to.

The finished result is a simple, comprehensive site, with great offers and venues for the members. To find out more about The Phantom Card or to just view the site, please go to:

As you may have read recently, Hertford-based fashion boutique Ginger Lillie has relaunched online! Beaver Design worked closely over the past few months with Alison Bates, owner of Ginger Lillie, to create this exciting new website.

The site is an online catalogue for Alison’s cutting-edge fashion boutique and features a full e-commerce system. The website also uses the very latest usual social bookmarking tools and blog, which are there to help visitors connect and refer their friends to the website.

The styling and design of the site is reflection of the artistic brand of Ginger Lillie and uses a simple layout to best showcase the fashion the boutique sells. In addition, this design is carried through to other services, such as Twitter.

“Beaver Design are great and have done a fantastic job of creating the boutique site for Ginger Lillie. It has all the features we wanted and with it now online, we’re looking forward to the future!” - Alison Bates, Ginger Lillie

A Thousand Words

The website is full of photos of Ginger Lillie’s wide range of products and these can all be managed, changed and kept up-to-date by Alison. On the website the photos are shown using a simple and intuitive preview tool, which means that customers can get a helpful close-up look at the clothing before adding to their basket (take a look >).

Ginger Lillie is a very visual website, so it was critical to have lots of quality pictures for people to browse through. The web is predominantly a visual experience so it’s important to make the most of that by showing off your products at their best.

We are proud to announce that the website for StageWorks Gear has now gone live:

www.stageworksgear.com

Earlier this year, Beaver Design worked closely with the new StageWorks company to develop their brand and unique identity. Entering a competitive market, StageWorks needed show the unique features of their products for studio and stage.

PRODUCTS

Beaver designed the packaging for the new StageWorks non-slip mat. Manufactured using a triple-layered technology, the non-slip mats are retailed in pairs inside an environmentally friendly cardboard envelope.

Using in-house photography, we created a simple but bold design to show the simplicity of the product. The packaging is designed not only to be eye-catching, but also to portray the products versatility compared to older solutions.

WEB

A new website was designed to follow on from the established brand identity, using a stylish look with contrasting elements to create a bold impression.

The site is clear and organised simply, with lots of video, images and detail on the StageWorks products. It also features its own blog and links to various social media channels, which are updated by StageWorks.

Throughout the site, modern web standards are used to ensure it works efficiently with the current range of web browsers and computers people use, including SmartPhones and touch screen devices.

The StageWorks finished site is simple and clear, full of detail and imagery, and provides a substantial web presence for the new StageWorks company.

Keep an eye on the StageWorks website for future products and solutions for studio and stage!

The Recruitment Gateway is a new website portal, which offers intelligent matching between IT candidates and recruiting managers. It is a concept which does more than simply host CVs – it provides a virtual recruitment consultant, allowing candidates to interact closer with recruiting managers and for positions to be better filled.

Beaver Design was contacted early on by Recruitment Gateway and worked closely with them to design the system which would manage the website.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Candidates provide a breakdown of their key qualities and skills when they register. These details then create their ‘Recruitment Gateway Passport’, which then matches them to job positions. The job positions are created by the recruiting managers and using a series of intelligent algorithms, the candidates are ranked and matched.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

For the candidates, once they’ve set up their Recruitment Gateway Passport, it is a one-click process to apply for jobs.

For the recruitment managers, it gives them a handful of suitable applicants rather than having to sort through hundreds of applicants from other sites. It also uses the intelligent matching to show how suitable a candidate is, based on their skills and the required skills of the position.

“For Recruitment Gateway, we needed not only good designs, but a company who had the technical knowledge to build the intelligent matching required for our web business. We’re happy to say the Beaver team delivered a fantastic site, fully meeting our requirements. It’s working very well and we’re looking forward to the future.” - Recruitment Gateway

From the original idea, to the finished site, Beaver Design worked closely with Recruitment Gateway to deliver something unique, functional and most of all, useful. The website is clean and simple, providing a new valuable resource for job seekers and recruitment managers.
