Soda Web Media

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Online retailer selling handmade goods. I am the founder.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Soda Web Media, and what were your goals?

I needed to launch my website and hired Soda Web Media to help me create and publish the website.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

I selected this vendor because they have experience working with small companies. They are also a smaller company and knew I would get the attention and communication I was looking for.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

I spoke to Mihai at Soda Web Media about the key aspects I was looking for for the website. He walked me through the different hosting services I can use, and the different plans offered by those hosting services. I decided to proceed with Shopify. From there, Mihai took over and created the site based on my requirements. Added the pictures and information I have provided him, and had my website ready to publish in no time.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I mainly communicated with Mihai. He is the founder of Web Media Services.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

I used to previously sell my items on different selling platforms. Selling platforms charge a fee for their services— typically between 10%-20%. Once I launched my own website, I was able to save a considerable amount of money on each sale by not having to pay the fee. I was also able to link my website to my social media accounts, which in turn has brought more traffic to the website and business.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We had check-in calls every couple of days. Mihai would reach out either via email or phone in case he had any questions or needed to verify some of the info I provided.

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

We were impressed with their attentiveness, knowledge, and dedication to the project.

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

Nothing at all! Working with Soda Web Media has been such an easy process, and it went extremely smoothly. Exceeded my expectations!
