Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

As part of our new management team, our company underwent a renaming, relocation, and rebranding of the business during 2024. BOP Design was hired by our company to create a brand new logo, color scheme, and aesthetic for this new business. The design work was focused on creating a minimalist, contemporary-looking logo that captured the underlying notions behind our new name. This was coupled with designing a curated color scheme to help drive forward the aesthetic.  

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Specific timelines were established regarding design brief deliveries, revision completions, and submission of final "materials". 

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

BOP did an incredible job of exceeding these timelines, which was particularly notable during the first few rounds of design revisions when we provided extensive change feedback. 

What was your primary form of communication with Bop Design?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The BOP team spent an extensive amount of time on diligencing our motives, goals, and concepts behind the rebranding. They truly sought to align with us on a strategic level such that their work was going to be value-additive, not just "going through the motions." 

This approach forced us to push the rebranding concepts even further and tighten them up, so BOP provided us with more than just a digital product. It is rare that a vendor can provide a firm-wide impact when working on a small component, so the team is truly talented, experienced, and professional in our opinion. 

Are there any areas for improvement or something Bop Design could have done differently?

None, we thoroughly enjoyed working with the BOP team and look forward to future collaborations.

Project summary

Bop Design redesigned and developed a WordPress website for a coolant system provider. The team implemented new features and pages and expanded the client's content, generating SEO strategies.

Feedback summary

Bop Design's website needed extensive backend work to improve loading times and web speeds. The client required their site in five different languages and realized Bop Design simply copied the backend upon reviewing it, hence the loading times issue. The team lacked transparency about their skills. This review is an update by the client company. The original content is located below the new review.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

How did your relationship with Bop Design evolve?
Unfortunately, the final website product needs extensive backend work to improve load times and website speeds. It seems that multiple languages were a challenge for the team, and based on a review of the backend, they simply created 5 copies of the website. Hence our issues with load times.
In what ways can they improve?
Transparency around experience and skills, especially where they are lacking.
What advice do you have for clients with similar needs to yours?
Do not use this company for a website if you work in multiple languages or plan to in the future.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

As BOP worked through the different parts of this project, they kept us in the loop and updated us on progress and projected end dates. As part of our rebrand, they sent over progress updates on items such as logo choices, branding spec documents, and resources and delivered the final versions within the date ranges they had given us at the start of the project. BOP is very transparent on progress and willing to go out of their way to update and clarify where items stand.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

BOP was very on top of owning and managing our project. We had a tight deadline for BOP on this project and it was not an issue for them. They stayed on top of the deadlines that they had and made sure that both parties were delivering items needed to progress. They were able to complete the project prior to our deadline and updated us quickly when we asked for progress reports along the way. This was a very well managed project.

What was your primary form of communication with Bop Design?

Communication with this team was very strong; it was clear that they all worked very well together.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Bop Design could have done differently?

I do not have any areas where BOP needs to improve or should have done differently.

Project management was good, we maintained good communication with Bop and when times weren't met on their end, they worked to speed up delivery times so we could launch the website by the desired date.

Our website redesign project included: a Website Redesign & Brand Refresh, Content Writing, On-page SEO, and Logo Redesign. Bop provided us a comprehensive plan which included a creative discovery, creative pitch, custom UI design, Web Development, Content Audit, Keyword Research, copywriting, and more.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We just went live on our website project, so I'm hopeful that we will be able to generate more leads, but right off the bat, the feedback we have received on the design, navigation, and UX has been all positive. They were able to better represent our core competencies, and why we're leaders in our industry. 

This project wasn't easy navigating all of the stakeholders involved, but the Bop team was professional, talented, and overall a joy to work with. I'm more than happy we decided to partner with Bop over competing vendors.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

The Bop team was extremely responsive and responded to all deadlines, schedule timelines, and communications as expected. Our final launch date pushed a few weeks beyond initially expected, however I think that was due to the extent of content on our old site that was needed to migrate over.

What was your primary form of communication with Bop Design?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Most impressive was definitely the knowledge each and every team member I interacted with throughout the duration of this project. Starting from our very first intro call with Jeremy, I was confident Bop Design had the knowledge and experience our company was looking for.

From then on, the project team, including Jess and Kara were our go-to's. Daniela is beyond talented and I was blown away by the first designs she showed us, including logos, Katrina somehow made lemonade out of sour lemons, and Emily's development expertise was impressive and accommodated all of our dev requests.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Bop Design could have done differently?

I can't think of one thing, but If I HAD to be nit-picky, the turnaround timelines for copy approvals were very fast, like 3-days for 55 pages of copy. We often had to request more time, which was always accommodated.

3. test site on development server
4. site launched and QCed

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Yes, deliverables were on time. There were occasions when we had to shift timelines a bit due to competing events on our side. This is in part due to our industry and the requirement to have formal reviews at various stages. Everyone on the BOP Design team is extremely responsive.

Throughout the project, I was providing feedback - it was addressed within a very short time frame. Requests for ad hoc meetings were always accommodated. They went to great lengths to ensure the site me the requirements I laid out for the present, but also set the foundation for future needs.

What was your primary form of communication with Bop Design?

Virtual Meeting

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What impresses me most is the ability of the BOP Design team to understand the customer needs in such detail that they act as an extension of our team - they become a true partner. It's not accidental - they take the time up front to learn about the company and your goals, your audience, what inspires you, etc. Being able to provide that detail up front, and BOP Design taking the time to truly understand it sets the project up for success at the start.

In addition, our communication and working/project management styles are completely aligned, so that also contributes to things going smoothly. I knew this going in having done 2 previous web design projects with them at other companies. What is special is that even though the team members on the projects varied, the way in which the project was executed did not. That consistency in the experience and quality of the web designs is impressive.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Bop Design could have done differently?

Absolutely not - I loved the way they worked and the results they delivered. I have chosen to work with them 3 times because there is nothing that I would have them do differently.

Their attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile is commendable.

The website project undertaken by Bop Design resulted in several measurable outcomes that clearly demonstrate progress and success. These outcomes include: 

• Improved Navigability: Bop Design successfully created a more navigable design for our website. By implementing intuitive navigation menus, clear and organized page structures, and user-friendly interfaces, they enhanced the overall user experience.

They implemented a user-friendly content management system (CMS) that made it easier for our team to manage and update website content. With streamlined backend processes, we could make edits, add new pages, and upload content more efficiently. This improvement in backend usability resulted in time savings and increased productivity for our team.

While our experience with Bop Design was overwhelmingly positive, there is room for improvement in terms of attention to small details. Although they excelled in delivering an outstanding website overall, there were instances where minor details were overlooked or required additional follow-up.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the VP of marketing at Sun-Pull Wire; we're a manufacturing company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Bop Design?

We hired them to design our logo and build our website.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

The Bop Design team designed our logo. First, we asked them to provide us with various logo options ranging from hyper-conservative to ultra-modern. Then, they created four templates, two were more straightforward, and two were more modern with bold colors. Once we chose the template that spoke to us most as an organization, we chose a font, and Bop Design managed the final logo design process from beginning to end.

After delivering the final logo, they built our website from scratch using a WordPress template. The website is our digital factory and lead generation tool for customers to engage with us online. The team also helped us with keyword research and provided website SEO and copywriting services. We collaborated with them on different pages to ensure they contained the right keywords for Google and Bing. We host the website internally, but they occasionally help with maintenance requests.

Bop Design also interviewed one of our customers for a case study. They added the case study to the website and included videos and data on different pages to convey our brand message.  

What is the team composition?

We worked with Daniela (Senior Graphic Designer), Emily (Web Development Director), and Robin (Brand & Content Director). 

How did you come to work with Bop Design?

We found them online while searching for B2B website design agencies. They were at the top of the search results, which was a good sign that they were well-versed in SEO. 

How much have you invested with them?

We invested $10,000–$25,000 in the project with Bop Design. 

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from November 2021–June 2022. They delivered the logo in 4–6 weeks and the website in 3–4 months. 

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

Bop Design delivered great logo designs on their first try. We were really pleased with the results and had a challenging time determining which logo would work best. They also created a great case study that showed they had a solid grasp of our brand aesthetic. Crafting messaging around our product can be challenging, but Bop Design did a great job turning what we gave them into meaningful website content. 

The website functions very well, and we’re pleased with the core site vitals. Since we’re still getting indexed, it’s too early to see the results of our website traffic. However, we’re heading in the right direction, and the site has received positive internal feedback regarding its design. We’ve been tracking our keywords and have climbed to the first page of the search results for some of them. We’ve also run technical SEO audits that have garnered positive results. 

How did Bop Design perform from a project management standpoint?

Working with Bop Design was fantastic; everything went smoothly. The team turned in deliverables exactly on schedule and well within our budget parameters. They gave us a timeline at the beginning of the project and stuck to it. Moreover, they were open to feedback. We used Bugherd to communicate feedback during the website development process, which was helpful. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

Bop Design was honest with us and delivered great value for the cost. They took the time to understand our business needs and learn about our goals as an organization. Moreover, the team was strong across the board when it came to website design, development, copywriting, and SEO. 

They focus on core industries, such as manufacturing, financial services, and IT, which enables them to be really good at what they do. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

I have nothing they could improve on; they were fantastic. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Make sure that your internal point of contact is connected to the project’s stakeholders so that Bop Design can deliver an end product that satisfies their needs. Problems could arise if your point of contact doesn’t have regular contact with the key stakeholders within your organization.
