LATEST BLOG POST - SHIFT IN FOCUS!

Over the last year Digital Design Scotland has intentionally spent less time working on smaller site builds to concentrate on larger e-commerce projects. In these larger projects the business adopts the role of e-commerce consultants, offering advice about CMS's, stock systems, couriers and often finding themselves working in situ at a clients for the duration of the build.

Additionally the business is not always involved in undertaking the heavy coding but instead takes on the responsibility of sourcing the correct developers and managing the project accordingly. The success of this years projects are as much to do with Digital Design Scotland's experience in retail and business as it is to do with their technical abilities.

In conjunction with this shift in focus, Ross Knight, Digital Design Scotland's owner has launched an online retail store (www.squelchsquerch.co.uk), in partnership with Andy Baker. This store has obviously been developed as a viable independent business but at the same time will be used by Digital Design Scotland to illustrate the 'best practices' for an online store, whether it be the use of social media, photography, site structure or promotional activity.

With this being the case Digital Design Scotland's "preferred" project is now e-commerce related. Ideally the client would not just require a website build but be employing the services of Digital Design Scotland for the "all round" approach required to develop a successful online store.
