Firstly, Happy New Year from all of us at Red Door Creative – can you really believe it is now 2018? Between all of the projects we’re working on for our existing clients, and welcoming new clients, 2017 seemed to go by in a flash!

Well, in the spirit of the “New Year, New You” mantra that seems to prevail at this time of year, we wanted to share some really exciting news that will see a slight change (for the better!) here at Red Door HQ – We’re expanding!

In December, we became the new owners of a website agency called Spartan Website Design, who specialise in designing and building E-Commerce websites. Spartan, who are based in Exeter, have hundreds of clients ranging from small rural clothing shops to large online retailers.

Spartan will retain a presence in Exeter, offering bespoke ecommerce website services to businesses throughout the region but will now also have a head office in Northamptonshire meaning we can now offer more business throughout the UK, cost effective ecommerce websites and digital marketing solutions.

Website design has become a fundamental way to promote your business or market your product. With 92% of the UK population having regular access to the internet - more than ever, there is a real importance in ensuring you have an accessible platform for your clients and customers. GuruFocus and The Office of National Statistics, outline that online sales grew by 21.3% in 2016 and over 30% in 2017 – showing a growing trend for consumers shopping online.

Furthermore, GuruFocus report that by 2018, 18% of all retail sales will take place online and by 2040, it is thought 95% of purchases will be facilitated by e-commerce. With greater choice online for consumers, it shows just how important it will be to ensure your business not only has an online shop, but that it is on a website which is easy to navigate with clear product choices and that is safe and secure to check out on. Without this, businesses run the risk of losing valuable business – which is vital when more consumers are moving away from the high streets and on to the World Wide Web.

With a head office brimming with designers, developers and account managers, all passionate about websites – we’re all extremely excited at the prospect of working with a whole host of new businesses.

To our existing clients – nothing will be changing... just a few more of us which means more knowledge & expertise and more resources, making us a better agency for your businesses needs!
