Canopi - Armed with confidence

New Product website – Canopi

I recently produced a website for a new Irish product that has been doing very well in-stores and on-line.

Canopi is a new product from Irish entrepreneur Sandra Walsh.

Canopi is a seamless way of adding arm cover to a sleeveless garment, instantly transforming the look of your outfit. It acts as covers for the arms; it is produced as a one piece which clips on to the bra straps for added security.

The site includes an e-commerce shop that processes electronic payments, orders with size and colour variations, shipping options and international delivery.

Artist Maureen Burke availed of my One-to-one website deal recently. We spent a morning session together, she brought along a CD of her images and her biography and artist’s statement. Over 3 hours or so we registered her domain-name, set up hosting, installed a content management system, styled the site and uploaded her content. All before lunch!

Social Media courses

Western Management Centre, Galway

Western Management Centre, Galway

I recently taught a short course in Social media in the Western Management Centre, in Galway. The course took place over a full day, with 2 3-hour sessions with a lunch break, and it’s full title was ‘Social Media – A business, sales & marketing tool‘.

‘The training course is ideally suited to individuals / businesses who want to learn how to use Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc. as part of their marketing strategy to gain a competitive edge, and that are interested in understanding how Social Media can have a positive impact on the revenue and awareness of their respective businesses.’

We’ve run the course twice now and it’s been very well received, the next course is available now for booking from Western Management Centre’s website here.

Eoin McHugh Artist Portfolio

One-to-one website for Eoin Mc Hugh

Recently a lot of the work I’ve done on websites has been done working one-to-one with clients sitting in on the process. They get to work with me step by step on the site build, directing their project closely, they get a flat hourly rate and the knowledge that the site is being worked on at a pace they feel comfortable with. There’s no delays, the site goes up as we work on it, problems are seen and sorted-out in real time.

Some of the sites I’ve worked on like this recently:
www.eoinmchugh.com
www.angieshanahan.com

So I’ve been thinking this might appeal to more clients, I’m calling it ‘One-to-one website‘, a new web-design hand-holding service where you get exactly what you pay for. I can setup your domain-name, hosting account, design your site, upload your images and galleries and train you in your content management system so you update the site yourself. Additionally I can add the ability to sell your wares online (eCommerce), add Facebook and Twitter (Social Media integration) and help your site rank better in search engines (Search Engine Optimisation).

Get in touch to discuss what we can do for our site in a one-to-one session!
