For what projects/services did your company hire Ask the Egghead, Inc.?

Design and deploy a new website that would help us reduce the number of people a customer would have to talk with in order to get a service appointment scheduled.

What were your goals for this project?

I fresh, clean looking website that encouraged engagement and decreased the number of prospects that would call to set an appointment by showing them a digital, faster solution for booking an appointment.

SOLUTION

They were referred to me by a mutual party. A vendor I subcontract for had used Ask the Egghead to develop their website and were very happy with it.

Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.

They built a new website for us using WordPress and then installed a scheduling plugin that they were able to connect to our accounting software using a customized API and Zapier. The entire system hands-off information to our field employees (via text) and our accounting system seamlessly.

I dealt mostly with Steven but also had interactions with a few of the content writers as we were cleaning up content from our old printed materials for use on the site.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?

The 60% increase in online bookings. Before this 100% of our customer service appointments came in by phone. This required live people to be available to book appointments 24/7. Now we refer clients to our website to book appointments. the shift in our internal dynamics has been incredible and represents a significant cost savings and increase in performance.

The project was managed according to the time schedule they provided with the original proposal. Everything from the design concepts to the content migration went as planned.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No, I am extremely happy with the project and it has resulted in a 60% in the number of people who book their appointments online vs. calling in.

The client submitted this review online.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the vice president of field operations for the Development and Construction Partnership Inc., an award-winning construction management and consulting firm that provides comprehensive construction services and luxury home building services.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Ask the Egghead, Inc.?

Our company website reflected a lot of stale, older content that was displayed poorly and was not responsive to mobile devices. We hired them to completely redesign the website in a way that would provide our visitors with an amazing digital experience, no matter what kind of device they viewed it on. We wanted to incorporate faster page speeds as well as significant photo and video content additions.

What were your goals for this project?

We wanted a new website that would present all of our relevant content in a concise manner, but would also involve many new graphical features that would reflect the quality of our construction techniques.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

I searched online and through several referrals from partner organizations before selecting Ask the Egghead, Inc. They had great references and they had several sites they had completed in the past year to show me what they could do.

Describe the project in detail.

We completed scrapped the old site. Ask the Egghead, Inc. created our new site and incorporated a significant number of photos and videos to tell our story in a visible way. They migrated over 25 pages of content from the old site to the new. They also migrated our quote system to use new web forms, so our field managers can complete the form and ask the client to electronically sign on an iPad in the field. All documentation is electronically submitted back to our accounting department for billing.

What was the team composition?

Steven (Chief Egghead, Ask the Egghead) handled the entire project from beginning to end. From time to time, we spoke with graphic designers and a few content resources, but he was always our primary point of contact.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Over the past two months, our client engagement through the site has quadrupled. Our field managers now reference the site when discussing upgrades to current projects, drastically reducing the time involved. The new forms for the quote system have also streamlined our sales process.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Steven did a great job of staying on top of his team. They kept in touch with us every step of the way. The workflow and the transition from the old site to new site, including content migration, went off perfectly.

What did you find most impressive about this company?

Their communication was impressive. I knew I could contact them at any time, and they always responded right away.

Are there any areas for improvement?

No, we’re completely satisfied.
