			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Macrae,</p>
<p>Thank you for creating a brand and website for me that is far more beautiful than I could have ever have imagined. You managed to pull every idea I put to you and you created a vision for me that was exactly everything and more than I could have hoped for.</p>
<p>Thank you so much your patience with me, I realise I am not the most computer savvy client out there, however, thank you for your calm and patience. You are an incredibly talented person in all that you turn your hand to.</p>
<p>I am so grateful that we chose you to create my dream website. We could not be happier.</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>
<p>Jennie Reid</p>

<h3 class="title-icon1">Website:</h3>
<p>The initial website was very hard to use, had many missing images and pages and did not include current products. We developed a website that was addressed these problems, and offered additional solutions.</p>
<p>The website we delivered is built on an e-commerce platform. Event Rentals wished to initially use the website as an online catalogue &#8211; we built a capability that allows it to be an online store when the business is ready to support this change.</p>
<p>Key features:</p>
<ul>
<li>The home page features latest products, an ad space (easily edited from the back end) and a moving slideshow (also easily edited by the business).</li>
<li>A PDF catalogue is included for downloading to make it very easy for the customer to view all available product.</li>
<li>We created an Enquiry form for each product and an extensive Enquiry for for event based enquiries.</li>
<li>Product pages include a zoom of the main image, and can facilitate many additional product images.</li>
<li>Product pages also feature a Related products section which highlights other products in each category.</li>
<li>Social media &#8211; each product has a &#8216;Share This&#8217; option which allows the visitor to share the product on their Facebook, Twitter, MySpace profile (and many more), or send to friend via email.</li>
<li>Testimonials are featured in the sidebar &#8211; these are randomly loaded as each page opens, which means all testimonials are displayed at one time or another without the business having to manually rotate them.</li>
<li>All pages include a link to the Enquiry form, promoting this feature and making it easy for the customer to enquire.</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8216;Michelle Morrison Bookkeeping &amp; Administration Services&#8217; approached in hope that we could refresh the brand.</p>
<p>The logo we created has a modern, web 2.0 feel with round corners and flat colours. We completely moved away from the traditional book-keeping (and sometimes tired) aesthetic.</p>
<p>Michelle was very pleased with our design and her clients absolutely love it.</p>
