We needed an entire new website, built from scratch.

They helped us write copy for 3 of our main pages, updated our brand font to more accurately match our brand's personality, designed the framework of our website, designed the website, and brought it to life!

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

A completed website that was on brand and increased engagement.

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

Overall, I was happy with it!!!

We had a flexible timeline, and we definitely didn't make the team's jobs easy or streamlined 😆

They were incredibly flexible, giving, and responsive to our needs, and we are deeply thankful for that. Without that, we wouldn't have been able to make our brand feel so human and relatable. 

Ex: I had to recreate our entire brand strategy halfway through, and I misread our contract that specified "services" under pages they'd write copy for. (I thought it meant all services pages, but it meant our services landing page haha. Had to add in time to get that up to speed)

It's hard to predict what you'll need from everyone beforehand, but in the future I'd love a list like "have any copy updates we aren't providing to us by _____ or else... 👀" up front so I can plan & coordinate with my teams on my side.

The only other thing was that there were a few weeks we didn't hear back from the team because of vacations. It would've helped to get a heads up on that so I could've made more progress on items needed on our end. But, again, we had a flexible deadline so in the end it didn't matter too much.

At the end when we were in the final countdown, I'm pretty sure they worked non-stop to get everything done and were on top of every little request we made. That's top notch service (but I hope to not put you guys in that situation again! Haha)

What was your primary form of communication with N4 Studio®?

Virtual Meeting

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

Sorry but nothing about N4 ISN'T impressive or unique. Can't boil it down to one thing because it's a million big & little things that create their unmatched experience.

Their organization. Their strategy. Their design abilities (Sophie—amazing). Their perfectionism. Their dream-it-and-we'll-make-it-happen obsession. Everything. 😙🤌🤌

Are there any areas for improvement or something N4 Studio® could have done differently?

Would love for a recommendations section in the scope of services right at the start, like "we're only doing 3 pages of copy for you. If you're going to update any other pages on your own, have that done by ____ so we can keep everything moving in good time."

I definitely want to make sure I'm more on top of things like that in future projects and that would be helpful to ID what's NOT included so I can coordinate on my end.

Scope of Work – Flywheel Website Redesign

The Flywheel website redesign project encompasses a full rebuild of our digital presence to better reflect our brand, streamline user experience, and support business growth. The scope includes strategic planning, content development, visual design, mobile optimization, and backend integration. The site will be developed on a scalable CMS platform, ensuring ease of updates and long-term flexibility.

Key Deliverables:

Full website design and development, including wireframes, UI/UX design, and responsive functionality
Updated content architecture to showcase Flywheel’s services, industries served, and custom solutions
Integration of lead generation tools, contact forms, and performance tracking (Google Analytics, SEO optimization)
A robust, searchable portfolio and blog area to highlight case studies, thought leadership, and product features
Custom landing pages to support marketing campaigns and conversion goals
Staff training on CMS for future updates and ongoing support post-launch

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

The redesigned Flywheel website delivered several key improvements that demonstrate progress and success:

Improved Website UX: Enhanced navigation, streamlined content flow, and a responsive design led to increased user engagement and longer time spent on site.
Boosted SEO Performance: Optimized content, metadata, and site structure resulted in higher search rankings and increased organic traffic.
Elevated Website & Branding: The updated visual identity and messaging now better reflect Flywheel’s bold, modern brand, reinforcing trust and credibility with both new and existing clients.

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

The project management of N4 has been fantastic. Lydia and the entire team did an outstanding job guiding Flywheel through each phase of the website redesign. They consistently delivered items on time, maintained clear communication, and remained flexible and responsive to our evolving needs. Their proactive approach and attention to detail made the entire process smooth, collaborative, and highly effective.

What was your primary form of communication with N4 Studio®?

• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

What stood out most about N4 was how quickly they got it—they understood what we at Flywheel were trying to accomplish, even when we couldn’t fully articulate it ourselves. From the very beginning, they aligned with our vision and helped bring it to life with clarity and creativity. Additionally, they built an incredibly organized and intuitive CMS that will make ongoing updates and site maintenance easy for our team, setting us up for long-term success.

Are there any areas for improvement or something N4 Studio® could have done differently?

The overall experience with N4 Studio® was excellent, but one area that felt a bit clunky was the content creation process. After a few initial meetings, our assigned content writer seemed to disappear from the project. As a result, Flywheel had to step in and backfill several content areas we had expected to be handled by their team. A more consistent and collaborative approach to content development would have made the process even smoother.

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

It is just really hard to find a web design company that really knows what they are doing. You can waste a lot of time and money with so many companies and end up with a website that is a liability instead of an asset. N4.studio on the other hand, they really know what they are doing and develop solid websites that are truly an asset for their customers.

Are there any areas for improvement or something N4 Studio® could have done differently?

I would have loved to have completed the site even faster. But because N4.studio is great, they are in high demand. Despite their heavy workload N4.studio still completed our project on time.

N4 are great and it is hard to find where they should make improvements. Only area I can think of is the recording minutes on calls. There were a few discussions that left us understanding one thing and they had a different thought. Could do a follow up email after each call, noting the points and agreed upon work to be completed. This was not a major and everything worked out perfectly in the end.

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

N4 Studio was hired to completely rebuild the Flex Fitness website. The project included the design and development of the website and photography/videography of all gyms across New Zealand. Our brand is our biggest asset and our website is our digital shopfront. At Flex we often talk about pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo, so our website needed to reflect those values. 

N4 Studio helped improve the user experience for our franchisees, members and also our staff here at the head office. For our franchisees, we needed landing pages that accurately promoted their unique selling points, showcased their gyms in the best possible light and generated quality leads. For the prospects and members, it was important that they could easily navigate the website, find their nearest gym, sign up online and learn about Flex Fitness New Zealand. 

For the creative team at the head office, we needed to be able to update and maintain the content on our website easily and with support from the team at N4 Studio. Key Deliverables: 

• Increase and measure conversion 
• Simplify site management 
• Strengthen brand identity (demonstrate an evolution in the brand) 
• Reduce bounce 
• Improve market positioning 
• Demonstrate value to stakeholders (owners) 
• Eliminate Usability and SEO problems 
• Driving people to visit/trial and sign up 
• Convey POD continuously throughout the experience

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Better visibility and an increase in digital leads captured through our website forms. We have also noticed an improvement in our organic search results and store visits. And general positive feedback about the look and feel of our website from members, franchisees and stakeholders.

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

N4 Studio had a project manager, Lydia, assigned to our project who managed the communications between their designers and developers and the creative team at Flex Fitness. Our original (very ambitious) timeframe was not met, however, the revised date was met. We communicated via email, call, and in person and provided feedback for design through Figma. Overall, the project was managed professionally by the team at N4 Studio®.

What was your primary form of communication with N4 Studio®?

• In-Person Meeting
• Virtual Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

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

Before the design and development of the website, N4 Studio hosted a workshop for our team to help get a better understanding of our target audience and user journeys, for both potential members and franchisees. We found a lot of value in the session and have continued to use the information as a base for our brand and marketing direction.

Are there any areas for improvement or something N4 Studio® could have done differently?

There were some parts of the projects that were skipped to meet the deadline, for example, user testing and feedback before launch. The launch of our website did feel a little rushed. My feedback would be to follow through with your process and communicate the importance of each step despite any external pressure you may experience.
