Problem

  • Solar Negotiators had an outdated website. Old, outdated platform. Slow.
  • It wasn’t meeting the needs of the business - not generating leads or propelling the business forward.
  • There was a ton of opportunity in the market but they were not set up for success digitally.
  • They needed an appealing, eye-catching, user friendly site that helped them grow their business.
  • Solar Neg. searched for a local solution and found Studio12 - they wanted someone they could talk to and interact with face to face.

Solution

  • Primary goal of the site was to generate leads for the business.
  • Studio12 did the IA, UX, wireframing, design, and development (full service).
  • Used a Wordpress template that Studio12 customized to the client’s needs.
  • Leads can now get an estimate in under 60 seconds. 
  • Flexible CRM, easy to edit content and create new pages without dev assistance. 
  • Wanted to set their office admin up with the ability to edit content on their own.
  • Train their employees and their office admin how to use the back end.
  • Made a series of training video and held training sessions to empower the team to operate independently.
  • Solar Neg. has been a client for over 10 years. 
  • Since we built the original site we have done a redesign - we maintain the site, help add new features etc.
