Interview with Fiona
Thinking of working with us? Fantastic! Please read the following interview with our Founder Fiona Allman-Treen – answering some of our most frequently asked questions:
Why do you do what you do and how did you get to be a website expert?
I LOVE technology! I love the way it helps people, improves lives, empowers and frees people from their physical / geographical / cultural limitations. I love that it opens up the world to everyone and gives all businesses a level playing field – as I believe online is the only truly equal environment, where a dad in his backyard can create an online playlist as popular as that of a Hollywood movie star. It brings people together from all walks of life and unifies us all. My whole team shares this passion for what we do and the difference it makes to the people we work with every day.
We support you by being the guide to business owners with a vision to grow but “don’t do tech” and don’t see (or know) how your website could be taking grotty jobs off your desk and bringing in ideal client enquiries and sales every day. We are starting a movement to get everyone to LOVE their website! Technology is a powerful force for good in your business and when you harness it in partnership with your goals – not “taming” or “breaking it down” but embracing and acknowledging it – you can achieve incredible things which serve your own needs and exceed your expectations.
My own super power is that I have another dimension to my vision, in that I can look at ANY business and see a way it could be leaner / smarter / bigger / better-known through strategically-applied mastery of online technology. I see ways to streamline and monetise traditional industries online, while retaining the heart and heritage of the business. Holding true to traditional values and ethos while applying the simplest and most effective ways to do more with what you already have, giving you back the enjoyment of what you do.
Who are your clients exactly?
I work with people just like you in established companies and charities who are ready to upscale their organisation to the next level. We also work with a number of public sector groups to deliver nationwide projects, as well as smaller startup companies who have funding and a sound business plan in place, who are looking for swift and sustainable growth.
What if you haven’t yet worked with people in my industry?
I have worked with thousands of clients across a wide range of industries and sectors so most likely I have worked with people in your field. Yet, I have to share with you that if I haven’t, you are not at a disadvantage, quite to the contrary. Here’s why: people in your field are probably ALL doing the same things to attract quality clients through their website, which could create a lot of repetition. What my clients have found exceedingly helpful is that, whoever we work with, we spend time researching your particular target audience and industry before we begin. And as everything we do is bespoke, nobody receives a “standard solution” from us for your business challenge – as we treat each client as a brand new entity in their own right. Because of this, your organisation stands out in an overcrowded marketplace and is the one who starts attracting quality enquires and results.
How are you different from other web design agencies?
What differentiates our service from other agencies is our focus on who you want to reach to achieve your business goals. It’s all about the target audience (or dream client) for us, so we work with you to clarify exactly who you want to deal with, then we build a profile of the sort of technology they prefer, familiar navigate systems they like, what can we add that they’ve never seen before and they’ll love – and pour all of that into the perfect solution for you.
What results can I expect to see from a site you build for me?
We have a great track record of meeting and surpassing initial client goals, some in a matter of weeks, some over a longer period of time – it all comes down to you want us to work together and ensure your site continues to be current, relevant, competitive and appealing to your target audience. You don’t get rid of us the minute your website is launched either, as we include ongoing Maintenance & Support as standard, meaning you have regular, timely reminders to keep your site active and running smoothly, plus my expert team on hand whenever you need us.
Can I contact some of your former clients to see what it’s like to work with you?
We positively encourage this! Please go to our Case Studies page and read the success stories from some of our clients. See which ones you feel drawn to, either because the person has gotten the results you want to get too, or perhaps because that business is in a similar industry to your own. Then feel free to email or call them and ask what they got from working with me and my dedicated team.
How quickly will I recover the investment I put into a new website system?
One of our core principles is to always add value, so before we begin working together we will agree a clear set of goals for you and your organisation, and attach (where possible) a financial value to each. We refer back to this at every stage of the project – through build and beyond – to ensure we’re on track to help you achieve these, so you can easily see how quickly your investment with us will pay for itself.
Okay, I’m ready to take this further, but I have a couple of additional questions?
No problem, I’ll be happy to answer any queries you have, and explain more about the process for us to work together. Call 01424 858123 or you can book a call or meeting with me on my website and I’ll be pleased to go through the different options and solutions available to help you move your organisation forward. I really look forward to working with you.
