The Business Seller SW is a local company based near Launceston and specialising in the valuation and selling of businesses.

Although the company is aiming mainly at West Country businesses, they’re able to sell a business located anywhere in the country. The company is targeting business purchasers across the whole country and their strapline “selling local businesses nationally” supports that.

Clarihon were engaged to design, build and manage their new website which needed to explain what they did and show the businesses they had for sale.  It was based on WordPress so that the clients are able to manage the content themselves and update the portfolio of businesses for sale easily.

Free range TV is a family-run company based near Callington producing high quality videos.  They chose Clarihon to provide their new website.

The brief was for a modern-looking website that described their services and to provide a portfolio page for some of their films.

With a wide variety of films and filming projects they’ve done, it was important to show a good selection. The site went live at the end of August. You can see it here: http://www.freerangetv.co.uk/

MAC Security Solutions provide commercial & domestic security consultancy, products and services throughout the South West.

The Director, Mike Chart, has extensive experience within the UK and abroad with a variety of security products and technologies. Installations have included a palace in the Middle East and he was involved in the development of body-worn surveillance systems.

Most of their work is now based in the South West and includes a commercial premises with extensive remote CCTV monitoring, a large pub/restaurant, a school and an aquatic centre.

MAC Security Solutions did have a web site but it was purely Flash-based and wasn’t visible to people searching on Google. Mike asked us to replace it with something easy to use, professional and that would feature on the various Search Engines.

Looking at the different areas the business was targeting we suggested 3 separate web sites. One covered the parent company, one the commercial side and the other domestic and small business. Within a couple of weeks the sites were already featuring in Google searches.

You might think that starting a new business in the current climate is a bit risky. Not so one of our latest clients.

Cathy Doidge, the owner of Jennycob, has spotted a gap in the market for jewellery for horses. No, not rings and bracelets but brass rosettes for bridles and stockpins.

An ideal gift for horse owners and those showing horses or competing, they are inexpensive and unique. They really are unique as no two designs are the same.

Cathy is seeking to reach customers both within the UK and abroad. To do this she needed an e-commerce web site. After searching on Google, finding us and a few chats later, a custom web site based on an established e-commerce package with an html ‘front-end’ was developed.

Within 2 weeks it was ranking on Google for 3 of the 4 selected search terms.
