Alan Bell's Blog

We all liked this reaction which I got during a telephone conversation recently. So what was it about...?

I picked up the phone to someone from a design company who my colleague Fergal had helped out with a technical problem (on behalf of a shared client). I figured it was a good opportunity to explain further how we work in partnership with design companies.

The reaction was to seeing the prominent 'Web Builders To The Design Industry' statement on our website. The timing was good - after a brief explanation, and drawing attention to a particularly successful joint project (www.rennicks.com) we did with another design company, we got talking about some specialist web requirements he had himself right there and then. 10 minutes later (more like 7 actually) I had an email with a well-thought-out outline spec to propose for.
