Garden Pilates provide pilates, franlin and reiki session in group or private individual sessions. They wanted a web site to not only show the services they provide, but also an explanation of what each of them were they were. Additionally, the page listing the classes had to be updatable as times, location and prices would change over time.
Garden Pilates had no logo or default colours so it was up to us to come up with a complete design.
To go along with the "Garden" in the company name, a large faded sunflower was placed on each page along with using an old english style font.
As there was quite a lot of text to put on the page, a 3 column design was conceived which meant the reader could view all the text on a certain subject without having to scroll through pages of text.
Each page is readily available on every page through the easily navigatable menu.
As the classes page needed to be updatable by the owner, an update page was made for it along with login and logout pages.
At the start of the process I had an idea of how I wanted to present my business, and indeed had a clumsy home-spun web-site on Yahoo's Geocities which a mate had helped me with, but it wasn't serving it's purpose of increasing my business. I considered several web-site designers, and decided on Easential, after looking at their terms and portfolio. The process of consultation was far less painless than I thought it might be: we had a chat over the phone, exchanged some e-mails, and it wasn't long before I had a prototype to look at. I approved the proto-type, with some changes, and within a short space of time my gardenpilates web-site was up and running.
I particularly like the presentation: it's clear, attractive, and has an elegant "designed" feel about it, and is easy to navigate to find the relevant information. People often compliment me on it, which is very satisfying. The web-site is attracting prospective customers, and my business has indeed expanded. Despite current financial difficulties people still need to exercise for their health and my web-site helps them choose where they are going to give their custom!
My working relationship with Easential is now of several years duration, during which time Easential have helped my web-site evolve
I would like to thank Easential for taking my amateur basic materials and transforming them speedily into an elegant and attractive web-site, which is an asset to my company, and would heartily recommend the company. It makes sense, particularly in a recession, to make yourself accessible to potential customers, for whom you can be just a click away. I know, that once they've clicked on my web-site, my potential customers are engaged by what they see, and they get in touch with me: Easential could do the same for you.
