Simply Carpets and Flooring
I had a quick call the other day from a client asking me if a certain domain name was available and, if it was available, could I secure the domain name, build them a website, SEO it and get their email accounts sorted out.
Within half an hour I’d secured the domain, set up their hosting and designed a very quick logo and set it up on their holding page. I called the client back and that was that.
On Saturday morning, a little over 24 hours since I had initially spoken with the client, I was passing their shop in North Camp, Farnborough. I decided to stop and grab a photograph of the shopfront and was more than little surprised to see that the new shop had already been signwritten AND the web address was on the shopfront too! Talk about being quick!
It would have been better if they’d waited to get their sign written because my own 5 minute logo was better than the one their sign writer provided plus mine was better kerned too 
Also I couldn’t identify the fonts they’d used, even Identifont was no help (for the first time ever).
I raced back to the studio, dropped the original logo and knocked up another quick holding page for the client. So here we have, a little earlier than expected, a site for Simply Carpets and Flooring. Sure, it’s a bit 1999 for the moment but, bear in mind, it is a holding page and it had to be up quick. Besides, what else can you do when the client is so quick to get their web address up on their shopfront?
