Marketlink Investment Partners challenged Bright Digital with the request to create a new website within six weeks during the summer holidays, due to an upcoming important event. Thanks to the savvy Bright method, we had the site up and running in record time in the HubSpot CMS.
Website process
A website project at Bright Digital follows a fixed, balanced step-by-step plan. Throughout the project, the entire team remains involved under the direction of a project manager, ensuring that we achieve the intended goals within scope and budget.
A SOLID Foundation
1. Requirements workshop
During the kick-off, a multidisciplinary team from Bright Digital took note of the objectives, positioning, personas and customer journey. The website had to inspire trust, convince visitors of the company's years of experience and express expertise with a personal touch. Trust is essential in this business.
The blueprint
2. Wireframes
Using FlowMapp, a conceptual representation of the sitemap and corresponding templates were created. For each template, Marktlink Investment Partners provided appropriate content, ideas, images and examples. This extensive input formed the basis for the designs.
"Since we are working with a tight deadline and small website, the wireframe process was easily worked out in FlowMapp. This allowed us to get straight to the core to determine the content for the design."
