Need

The need for a re brand and a new website, they wanted to make it clear on all the services that they offered. Before hand the company was relatively unknown, they wanted to take the next step as a company, and a fresh and exciting website was a perfect platform.

In order to find the right company to tackle their rebranding and web design issues they contacted numerous design agencies and once all the project plans were on the table the decided on FDC, the Leicester based design agency.

Tareq Alabed of Active 8 said "We found FDC through internet research. FDC's portfolio presented an interesting range of website designs and therefore we believed FDC could deliver the website we had in mind.

"We had contacted several design agencies other than FDC, in the end FDC had the advantage in terms of a website/logo cost and logo revisions. FDC were very professional and it was very easy to communicate our requirements, concerns and ideas."

FDC's project was to complete a logo and website re-designs. The requirement was to create a logo that conveyed at least one aspect of what the company does and a website that is easy to use, vibrant, informative and useful for all our clients.

Solution

The solution was a smart and fresh new website delivered by FDC on budget and on time, and everyone is very happy with the final product.

"We believe the finished results are brilliant! The logo is spot on, it's what we envisioned and it portrays what the company does. The website is vibrant, user-friendly, simple and efficient.

"Our clients are now aware of the full range of services that we offer, we can reference our website with the confidence that they will benefit from visiting it. Clients can now fill our contact forms online and receive instant support"

It's another success for FDC, Creative Director, Alex Chatzimikes said: "Active 8 were a really interesting client, it's not often you get work from this sort of area, and it was nice to create a really vibrant website that gave off a entirely positive atmosphere, I hope to continue our working relationship with Active 8 and it was a pleasure to work with them."

Tareq adds "I'd love to work with FDC again in the future. On the whole I have been very pleased with FDC's work, the end result was great and we have received positive feedback from our clients regarding the website. FDC provides a professional service and makes sure its clients are pleased."
