			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Social media has become a much more prominent part of the online landscape in recent years, with sites such as Facebook and Twitter becoming major portals for the sharing of content. With such huge numbers of people using social networks, there are plenty of opportunities for companies to use them to boost their own online presence, banishing the impersonal and corporate image often projected by online companies in favour of more direct and often informal contact with current and prospective customers.</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.theconsultancy.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/facebook.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-57" title="facebook" src="http://www.theconsultancy.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/facebook.jpg" alt="facebook, twitter, social media" width="593" height="378" /></a></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>By integrating company Facebook and Twitter accounts into the design of your website, you can more appropriately target potential customers of your own company. This can project a more responsive, professional and capable image in addition to attracting a loyal base of followers that will be more likely to visit your site and subsequently do business with you.</p>
<p>Your company may have a Facebook or Twitter account in order to publicise the most recent special offers, or even possibly to direct visitors to interesting content on your site, such as a new blog post commenting on recent events that will be of interest to your customers.</p>
<p>Our web design and social media marketing specialists here at The Consultancy have a high level of expertise when it comes to integrating Facebook and Twitter with your site &#8211; ultimately making it so much easier for you to win business!</p>
<p><strong>Social media integration package includes:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Account set up</li>
<li>Design of mini site &amp; background template</li>
<li>Integrate social media icons on your website</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Whether you&#8217;re a startup business that is only just trying to spread the word about the fact that there is now an alternative to more established competitors, or you are instead such an established company that is trying to ensure a greater degree of customer loyalty, it&#8217;s absolutely vital that you keep communicating with your customers &#8211; both new and old.</strong></p>

That&#8217;s because you also need to have a fully functioning eCommerce website, one that makes it as easy as possible for prospective customers to shop with you.</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.theconsultancy.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/ecommerce.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-64" title="ecommerce" src="http://www.theconsultancy.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/ecommerce.jpg" alt="e-commerce, online shop, ecommerce website, ecommerce web design" width="593" height="361" /></a></p>

<p>The whole point of an eCommerce website is to convert those visitors into sales, and at its most basic level, such a site consists of a range of clearly displayed products and prices, along with a &#8216;virtual basket&#8217; that stores collected products between their selection by the customer and the final payment stage. Here at The Consultancy, however, we go so much further than this, ensuring that your eCommerce site is attractive, informative and easy to navigate.</p>
<p>Oh, and we also ensure that your eCommerce site is easy to maintain &#8216;behind the scenes&#8217;, meaning that you get to spend less time phoning web developers and more time making money from a frequented updated site. Our highly professional and capable team will listen carefully to your exact requirements, before designing a solution that is built entirely around them.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Sure, so you&#8217;re confident in yourself that your company offers the highest quality, most competitively priced products and services in its field, together with the highest standard of customer service. But the bottom line is that you could claim anything &#8211; it doesn&#8217;t always match up to the reality. Thankfully, as part of your web design and online marketing campaigns, there is certainly one way of persuading customers that your own company is the real deal &#8211; by having customer reviews on your site from Trust Pilot.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.theconsultancy.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/online-website-reviews.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-73" title="online-website-reviews" src="http://www.theconsultancy.co.uk/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/online-website-reviews.jpg" alt="online website reviews, website feedback, web reviews" width="593" height="353" /></a></p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In an online landscape that has seen the rise of social media and &#8216;citizen journalism&#8217;, more and more people have been posting their opinions on all manner of products and services for others to read online. And, fortunately or unfortunately for online businesses, it is these reviews that are most frequently trusted by actual buyers, not least given that they are written by other real customers of a companies products and services.</p>
<p>Here at The Consultancy, we can flatter your online business by incorporating Trust Pilot customer reviews into your web design, so that prospective and current clients are given even more reason to choose your own company over the increasing competition in your field.</p>

<p>Perhaps you run a restaurant and desire professionally designed menus and stationery. Or maybe you run a hair salon, and would like your price and appointment cards to communicate a stylish and rustic image that differentiates your own establishment from the bland high street competition. You might even be an office-based company that wants to blast that stuffy and outdated image in favour of something bright, sparky&#8230; and new.</p>
<p>Whatever your companies exact circumstances are, our branding services are built around them, with the end result being a brand for your company that accurately reflects your companies most positive values.</p>
