Very happy to smash a jeroboam of champagne over the gleaming hull of a new website which has been launched off the Jojet shipyard (ok, I’ll bring that nautical metaphor to a watery grave now).
The client is the largest independent accountancy firm in Wales and their website was letting them down*
As you may know, one of my clients that I’m working with is Harry Holland. Harry is a fantastic fine artist based in Cardiff and I’ve been helping him discover the most appropriate ways for him to embrace all things digital. Now one of the areas we’ve been playing with is the hugely popular photo sharing app Instagram. But, on Sunday night we hit a big problem…
In the previous post about Jojet client Harry Holland (the fantastic, figurative, fine artist), I’ve talked about how we got started and began by looking at blogging. In this post I want to talk a little more about his website and how/why that has evolved.
I mentioned in a previous post that I’m working with a fantastically talented figurative painter based in Cardiff; Harry Holland. The aim with Harry (as with most clients) is to help them become smarter online. In Harry’s case we want to help people see his works and help him engage with the audience. In this post I want to talk about one of the things we started with: blogging.
Today we* launched a website/blog which I’m very proud of. It’s for a cultural initiative (called Busk) featuring an event in Newport (called Busk on the Usk). You can take a looksie at it here….
Russell Britton and I have been hard at work recently on many changes and refinements for the highly talented advertising photographer Huw Jones. This culminated yesterday in the launch of his new HTML email newsletter and some amendments to his website (based on brand refinement work by Russ).

One of the things I always try and explain to people is that social media is very much about the long game. This isn’t just a matter of setting up a Facebook page and then you’ll sell 500% more Whamo bars or whatever. This is a much more softly, softly approach.
Today I had a great time helping out my very talented wife Jessica who was tasked with filming some members of the Action Business Club (of which I’m a long term member).
It’s always great to launch a new website and this time is no different.
This website was actually started a good while ago but the project stopped and started as the client’s business priorities adjusted.
