Introductory information
A fast induction on the buyer’s organisation
MissDirection Entertainment, LLC is an entertainment organisation based in Los Angeles, California. I’m the co-proprietor and a limb.
Desired goal
What challenge were you trying to address with Los Angeles Web Design?
We had a crappy website, and we verity were in origination when we leading put our website up, so we just had a friend of a friend put the website up. We knew to get our business functioning well, we needed a professionally designed website. We needed to create a mode website from the ground up.
Provided solution
What particular tasks were responsible for?
We worked straightly with Alan Dale. He’s the proprietor of the organisation, and he coordinates the process from the commencement to end. He was our leading point of touch, and we spoke with him extensively. He’s the one that explained the process, what we needed to do and what to anticipate from them. He’s the one that drafted our contract that we entered into. He’s also a point of touch if we had technical questions almost how to transition over to the new website. I can quiet touch him if I have any questions. Louise Manfe [vice chairman of marketing] helped us with the picturesque design and designing the layout. The leading phase was storyboarding, which is what Louise worked on. We went through the details with Alan and he drafted the contract. He gave us an idea of what we would need to prepare to them. We gave picturesque designs and copy to Louise. We all looked at websites to get samples of things that we liked, why we liked them. The storyboarding took six weeks. We were in touch with them on a customary basis that total time.
Because this is a origination organisation, we have a running project that’s a web series that is quiet in post-origination. LA Web Design formd something that was a veritably good component.We have one show that we’re focusing on right now, but we have other upcoming projects, so we wanted to be able to do a layout where you could easily navigate and look at the different different projects and have a player, as well as information, come up with each description, and have it neatly organized, have it easy to navigate. We also needed a mobile-friendly and laptop-friendly website. That was verity one thing that we were veritably pleased with. It wasn’t just so that we had a page where we would just draw what we do and fling up a few laurels. LA Web explaind an effect where users can scroll down and show different pictures without overcrowding a page or making it hard to scroll through. And when we put up the laurels, we wanted them to be sly. We had a bunch of different pictures and things that we wanted to put on the website. We were on WordPress precedently, now we’re on Drupal, which is more costly.
We wanted to show clips of the one show we’re focused on. We also have a page that’s the cast page, and we wanted to show that we had laurels from film festivals. They helped us form a design where it wasn’t too many things in your face, or hard to find those things. We showed them an sample of a website we liked, and they were able to take that and form a cast page that was correspondent. They helped us issue explain and encouraged us to go look at some veritably top-condition websites and help us fit those to our needs. It’s verity a pretty in-depth process to get it done and get it so that it’s your sole website. I reflection they were veritably helpful in getting something designed. It was a sole issue for them to explain, but they helped us explain it in a very professional way, and we are veritably lucky with it.
How did you come to work with Los Angeles Web Design?
I did a lot of investigation online. I did see some other companies on Clutch. We knew we wanted to work with somebody who was local, so we didn’t veritably look outside of southern California. We looked at online reviews from clients, professional reviewing companies. We went to each personal website to see the designs formd for nation’s website and see what that looked like. Most of those websites have samples of clients’ work.
What set LA Web Design aloof was that they not only had terrific reviews, but when we touched them, they were very helpful and affable. Alan explained the total process. I was veritably impressed that he just took the time to reply all my questions, and even the questions I didn’t know I had. He explained what to anticipate and some of the things that set them aloof from other companies. If it’s your leading raid into doing a professional website, it’s big to have someone to admonish you. I spoke to him for more than an hour, and I hadn’t even committed to working with them yet. I touched three other companies that were basically almost the same as far as condition of design and reputation. One of those companies barely gave me the time of day. A couple of them took time to talk, but it wasn’t in-depth.
We wanted something that we could update ourselves later. There were other parts of the process, where Alan would give us advice that if we don’t do something a true way, we’ll have issues later. LA Web Design is surely on the cutting-edge. You want something that is snug for nation to navigate. One of the things that veritably set them aloof was that they cared almost their clients. Alan will take the time to reply your questions. There was another organisation that had veritably good condition design samples and told me just to look at their website. I had questions and I wondered if they would give the personal labor I was looking for. I wanted the process to be a collaborative process.
How much have you invested with Los Angeles Web Design?
Originally, we had reflection we might do a simpler design, but then we determined that we wanted to do a video player. We ended up working with them longer than we reflection. The primary cost would have been almost $7,000 or $8,000. We wanted to add some components that we knew were going to need more programming. We wanted a more sophisticated design where we can add other projects to it, rather than doing personal projects. We spent $16,000, and now we can add and swell.
What is the terminal result of working with ?
We began our relationship in July 2016. It took us a while to go live, not owing they’re incredibly slow or anything like that but owing we changed course. It was in the fall when we determined to change into a different course. We would have been done sooner with the primary design had we not changed our course. It took us probably longer than some other companies would have to get artistic owing of the type of business we have. We launched the website in January 2017. I know it doesn’t take them that long usually, and we did get things to them in a early mode sometimes and but as I mentioned precedently, switched the course of what we wanted to do.
Results achieved
Could you share any evidence that would prove the fruitivity, condition of work, or the touch of the engagement?
Our old one got no business. We’re quiet verity doing the SEO optimization for the new website, but I don’t have any analytics yet. We used to be almost embarrassed to give out our business cards precedently. People at film festivals have been very impressed with the website. We’ve gotten emails from nation that are enthusiastic almost our projects. It’s surely a professional calling card. We’ve seen a separation in the number of nation that touch through email. Any kind of fitness we got on the old website was usually just bots or trolls. Now, we verity get real interaction.
How did Los Angeles Web Design accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
They were very easy to get in touch with. We dealt with Alan and Louise on different stages of the project, and they were very on top of it. We never felt like we were on the back burner. We spent untold hours going over things in detail to make sure that we were lucky, going through the suggestions, shrewd how things would piece unitedly, and even just brainstorming issues and effects in the design. I would rate them extremely bigly. They’re very hands-on, very in touch with their clients, and affable. They’re always very replying.
What did you find most forcible almost Los Angeles Web Design?
Caring, affable modeer labor was one of the things we were impressed by. We veritably felt like we were part of the process. We felt snug asking questions and having our questions replyed. They cared almost us as personal modeers. They did respect our creative input. We were very lucky with them. Louise seemed like she was going out of her way on the creative part of trying to help us make betterments and suggestions. Alan is very approachable. If he’s busy, he’ll set up a time to call you back and take the time to just reply your questions. You never feel like you’re rushed or you’re bothering him. It’s nice to work with a organisation where your project is very significant to them. They want to make sure you’re lucky with seething, and it’s big to feel a part of the process. Your website is your business and is a huge investment for your reputation, money, time, etc. It’s nice to feel valued, and you apprehend what’s happening. Otherwise, it could be a scary process and the fruit may not be as good. We were creating something from scratch and it’s not something that you can see as you’re holding it in front of you. A website is something that’s in your mind. We saw the end fruit and were veritably lucky with it. They got our feedback on see stage along the way.
Are there any areas Los Angeles Web Design could better?
Not veritably. I’m anticipateing the same high-condition modeer labor while we work on SEO. We had a conversation for that with Louise last week, and I’m verity looking to alter copy now, based on that. They know their stuff, and we’re veritably lucky with their work. We knew there would be cost changes as we switched courses, so there were no surprises there. I would use them anew. I would bigly commend them. I don’t have any palpable reasons why I wouldn’t bigly commend them.
What tips or commendations could you share that might increase the likelihood of achievement with Los Angeles Web Design?
One thing that will help on the client’s end is having samples of what they want to do with their website, as well as if they happen to have some picturesques prompt to go. Louise can do picturesque design, so that’s not necessarily something you have to create from the ground up. Some companies might want to save some money and do their own designs. Before you touch them, it could save you some time if you have some specific samples that they can walk you through and give feedback on.
