Laastad
Laastad is a Volvo dealership in Norway. They needed a new website that integrated with other services for easier offer management.
Laastad is a well established Volvo dealership in Norway. I've helped them integrate their website with Finn.no for easy management of used cars.
Laastad dealership required a new website. They wanted to show used cars and new cars offers on the website. I've integrated their listings from Finn.no for automatic offers management, and prepared forms system that integrated with their sales funnels.
Additionally I developed financial calculator for clients looking for leasing and credit options of buying a car. My goal was to optimize the speed of the website and provide extensive filtering options for car listings.
Thanks to our collaboration users can find the car of their dreams right on the Laastad's website. New modules helped them improve sales and client engagment.
Osiedle Tuleckie
Osiedle Tuleckie is one of real estate projects built by Śniadecki Development from Poznań, Poland offering modern design at moderate prices.
Starting new real estate investment required creating new website to coordinate sales & allow clients to learn more about the project.
For optimizing sales experience I've created a separate solution for managing estates stock directly from spreadsheets, and implemented a configurator module in Vue.js that allows clients to add additional perks to their new home.
Home selector & configurator integration with Google Sheets allows client for instant updates of the stock across all websites from 1 datapoint without any need for developer's work. CMS that I've selected was WordPress, because of previous experience with this CMS.
Currently I have a pleasure to work with Śniadecki Development on updating the site and maintaining server architecture implemented for all client's sites.
Bespaar Quiz
Twinstone asked me to deliver an iOS app for iPad to gather information about energy usage from their clients.
Twinstone Team asked me to prepare an iOS app for the marketing team to gather data from potential customersThe goal of the project was to prepare an app for iPad's, that gathered information from potential customers and stored it in a dedicated backend app for future analysis.
Within 3 weeks both the backend application and the iOS app were completed. Additional challange was the requirement for the app to collect data without internet connection and syncing it after connecting to the internet. Thanks to incorporating Realm database for React Native, I've managed to complete all the requirements.
This app has gather more then 10k data points, which help promote Slimwonen App and gain insight into users behaviour.
Italian Village
Italian Village is one of the most important projects of the development company behind it. This one in million project required special treatment from the whole team of people working behind it. Together we've created the branding for the project and flexible website project.
Design system was created for the project which lay the foundation for WordPress theme with custom site builder. Additionally I've created a forms system integrated with client's sales funnels, as well as a custom made selector for apartments.
Thanks to a custom theme development for WordPress. Client can update, change layout of the webiste and create new pages within the design system without need for additional work from developers.
Slimwonen App
Slimwonen is an app that enables users in the Netherlands to monitor costs of energy and reduce it in the long run.
Providing professional support during development cycle was my main goal in this project.
Slimwonen App helps users in Netherlands control water, gas and energy usage in their homes. Thanks to integration with smart meters users have access to real-time calculated usage parameters. Analysis of users' behaviour and appliances used in home app provides suggestions on minimizing energy usage.
Additionally app's users can compare their usage with other users, get help with energy provider operator selection, learn how much energy they saved thanks to incorporating tips, control received bills and much more!
I was responsible for creating the front end of the application for Android and iOS platforms. During the project it's scope changed and I advised the client on features and implementation roadmap.

PYX is my long-term partner, they specialize in marketing campaigns, optimizing sales processes for companies across Norway. After they made some changes within the company they wanted to refresh their online presence.
I had a pleasure of working side by side with their design team creating a minimalistic, fast website optimized for reading. New website provides quick and easy way to show off the knowledge of the team and offered services.
Website was built on top of WordPress CMS and deployed to PYX network services.

"It's refreshing to just give someone a briefing and know it won't result in a lot more work."

Please describe your company and your position there.
Ultimate Bundles are a leading publisher of eCourse and eBook packages in the health, business and lifestyle niches. I work as the Director of Operations, overseeing all our projects and technical roadmap.
For what projects/services did your company hire Wojciech Kałużny?
Wojciech helped us in a fairly desperate situation where we needed an experienced front end developer that was also familiar with the Laravel ecosystem (PHP, Laravel, Forge, Linode). He came in and cleaned up a handful of changes incredibly quickly with excellent accuracy.
What were your goals for this project?
We had a handful of functional website changes in the backlog, along with a couple of new landing pages to our existing website that needed to be built.
How did you select this vendor?
Wojciech has been a back-up freelancer for our team for years. We first worked together on Upwork but he has since left the platform and we work together directly.
Describe the project and the services they provided in detail.
Wojciech marked up a handful of interface changes on our website and built a couple of new landing pages. He took a design built in Photoshop and turned it into a new view on our site using HTML, CSS, Vue.js and Laravel. He made a couple of other minor changes to the views and routes of our website.
What was the team composition?
Wojciech was working directly with our designer and myself.
Can you share any information that demonstrates the impact that this project has had on your business?
We had been struggling to get these changes implemented correctly because the requirements were hard to understand. WK pulled them together into a solution in less time than it took us to define them. It's hard to measure the tangible impact, but the changes were received well by the rest of the management team and our customer base.
How was project management arranged and how effective was it?
Wojciech was very accommodating in using our management systems (Asana). He's also very organized with his own reporting and communication.
What did you find most impressive about this company?
His attention to detail and ability to fix issues that we didn't know about. Most freelancers we work with bring issues to us expecting an answer. Wojciech fixed everything he could find, while telling us what he was doing. It's refreshing to just give someone a briefing and know it won't result in a lot more work.
Are there any areas for improvement?
Not really. I can't recommend him highly enough.

We have created an App which you can connect to the 'smart meter' (for gas and electricity) in your home. We want to make people more aware of their energy usage and show them how fun (and easy!) it can be to reduce their usage level.
We all have to take steps toward climate change and we believe awareness and (small) actions are the first steps to take.
