We received an urgent mayday call from Malawi based air charter company, Ulendo Airlink, a few weeks back. They wanted a website up and running pronto and asked if we could assist. Designing and building a website in double time is one of our forte’s so we were eager to help them out in their timely squeeze.
All in all, the design to build took a record three days. Another day of approval from Ulendo Airlink and the site went live in under five days.
Although they were simply looking for a website that displayed a static eight pages of information, they did ask us if we could insert a simple contact email where visitors could book flights ‘somehow’. They had a simple email contact in mind, but we knew we could create something that would work way better…
We wanted to give them something special so we pulled up our breeches and whacked up a form where visitors could fill in their information and book a charter or scheduled flight, based on destinations and time-frames, directly off the website. This form could send a booking request to their admin department where the information could be processed.
Going the extra mile paid off and not only did they get their website live in record time but they also got way more than they bargained for.
