MASTER BUILDERS KWAZULU-NATALvisit the Master Builders KwaZulu-Natal website
The Master Builders Association in KZN has a long and proud history and a very active relationship with their members. Recently they created a Communications department, part of whose agenda was to develop online channels for communication with members. In this respect, our client is probably the most pro-active website client we have ever met - they already run their own blog, had plans for 2 fully developed forums and had specified a website to include industry news, calendars, member directories and an online shop.
A management system to handle active editing
With our client being so hands on, our CMS needed to allow editing of pretty much the whole site, not just adding news articles. It has managed this very well, allowing our client to build many of the pages and sections of the site, as well as handle a full news & information portal, manage an industry tenders database and provide information on the association's history, staff, goals and annual awards ceremonies.
Advertising Management
The CMS also provides management of adverts on the website and the forums. Our client is able to place adverts and supply reports to their clients on advert performance. | KNOWLEDGE IS POWER
Our direct client on this project knows a lot about the internet - much more than most clients. And he knows how to use it to generate content for the site, how to spread it and how to get it to drive traffic to the website. This knowledge and pro-activity has been great to work with because the tools we've created have been used to great effect.
We definitely feel that the most valuable thing you will get out of working on a project with us is that you'll gain this type of knowledge - we're very keen on explain, sharing and showing, rather than just doing it. |
