Edtech & College Web Design Agency

With Hellenic College of the Holy Cross, located in Brookline Massachusetts, they were looking for a web design and development agency that was not going to just give them the same old template website that looks like many of the other college websites, but they were looking for a firm that could deliver on offering creative visuals, inspiring design, mobile-first and friendly along with high-performance web development and coding expertise to make sure the user-experience was effective, created for conversion but at the same time focusing on communicating the several different departments, admissions information, campus calendar, certificate programs, school of theology and more. In the end, this is a 250 plus page website that has loads of information, but property structured for easy conversion paths and information seeking users. We had a fun time with this project and really focused on providing a clean, effective website experience for the many different personas and audience that would be interacting with the new Hellenic college website.

GoingClear joined forces to design and develop a fresh new eCommerce bookstore for Allegheny College. With their new brand tweaked, we started the web design process and worked through that phase to grab clear and prompt approvals and then moved into the web development & coding phase. Also, part of this project was mapping their product catalog and successfully migrating all products, inventory control & advanced variations settings. It was a success and revenue is targeted to increase as a result which is what we always want for our clients!

A strong and clear vision for the future of empowering teens, caregivers and educators along with leveraging web app technology was part of the mission for this custom web application build. Overall, this was a complex web app build with the key website features and modules being: eCommerce, online training, registration, login, customizable dashboards, dynamic libraries, creative page layouts, period tracker, online journal, rewards system, video integration, deep navigation and breadcrumbing to keep users centered as they browse as well as three main hubs within this build. Each of the hubs – teens, caregivers and educators have their own stylized dashboards, different content and account models where caregivers leverages a recurring paid subscription model, educator accounts are based on buying specific courses and having access to lessons and quizzes as well as a free membership for teens.

Every company needs new sales to grow. And to find new customers, businesses need their sales teams to be educated and equipped with up-to-date product knowledge and details.

For the Sales Enablement group at Houghton Mifflin Harcourt (HMH), that was proving to be a challenge. They had approximately 800 sales representatives spread across the United States, supported by online training programs being offered throughout the year. In order to take them, sales personnel were forced to register using Microsoft Excel files that were emailed and updated manually by another member of the HMH staff. The spreadsheets themselves were extremely cumbersome, with hundreds of rows and columns that needed to be filled in one at a time.

This spreadsheet-based system was functional, but it was prone to errors and didn’t represent a valuable use of the Sales Enablement team’s time and resources. Eventually, they turned to GoingClear for help developing a web app that would automate these tasks which involved two key components which were a third party learning management system’s API and having that their system and data talking/syncing with our web app as well as an admin interface for management and sales reps to login, register and pull reports as well. The company was on a tight deadline ahead of its next training initiative, but wanted to work with a firm who would focus on intensive discovery and custom programming with the goal of finding a more efficient solution.

After thorough interviews and detailed planning, our experienced programmers were able to develop a successful web app that removed the need to share spreadsheet files through email. Instead, HMH got a streamlined solution that allowed for users to login, select the courses they needed, and have them automatically scheduled or assigned.

By giving Houghton Mifflin Harcourt a new way to handle sales rep training, we didn’t just eliminate an annoyance; we let their talented employees get back to what they did best – focusing on more exciting, revenue-generating work.

Lee and Low were searching for a unique web design agency with a combination of deep WordPress CMS development expertise, thoughtful, beautiful design, custom Zoho API integration experience, and experience developing everything within an eCommerce engine. We kicked off this project together after many thorough discovery and planning calls. Some of the primary goals were to enhance the user experience, refresh and redesign all pages, marketing and e-commerce pages, streamline the site navigation into one unified nav, and leverage the WooCommerce and Zoho API to feed the site. Within the WooCommerce and Zoho API, the goals were to dynamically display products, control inventory of both products and collections of products, manage inventory, process orders by card or PO, and have it all flow into Zoho, their source ERP system. In addition to those needs, accessibility was an important project goal, as well as capturing the overall essence and brand of Lee & Low through this newly refreshed web design.   Thinking back, we had a great experience with the very knowledgeable team and staff at Lee & Low and are excited to continue to support & optimize their eCommerce website!

What an exciting startup company to work with. With Boxing For Fitness, big goals, strong background and history within the industry and an amazing team and board of advisers. If you want to know what Boxing For Fitness is… just think Crossfit or Zumba, but for Boxing and the boxing industry. With Boxing For Fitness officially trademarked, they needed an impressive highly credible website interface design from the front-facing public pages to the back-end logged in dashboard user interface areas for their three types of users which are gyms, trainers and individuals. Focusing on a proper discovery, planning and design strategy phase, we had website credibility, according to Stanford University covered through high-end design. In addition to the the looks/visual design, they needed a stable and scalable back-end and CMS Content Management System to support this build. The end result was a mobile/tablet/desktop bootstrap responsive friendly approach through a Progressive Web App development framework with browser push notifications, geolocation, registration, eCommerce, sign in, discounts for certain member types and more. In addition, as we helped them launch their new progressive web app, we also provided our video production services to create a docu-style brand video to help brand their story and connect with their audience as there are so many web apps out there nowadays with little or no branding, so we wanted to help set Boxing For Fitness apart from the pack and maximize their digital presence. Watch a short video below for a summary of this web app project as well as the video we produced for BFF too! In addition, we designed associated marketing collateral print designs, trifolds, certificate design, one-sheets, postcards and more.
