Our local Guernsey advertising agency, which we set up in the midst of the recession, is still going strong year on. In fact, our client list keeps growing!

We’re really proud of the companies we’ve worked with so far this year. They are all fantastic (I know we have to say that, but it’s honestly true) and they’ve all certainly kept us busy!

Some might wonder “how has this Guernsey agency managed to pull off numerous projects when most companies are pulling back on their marketing budgets?”

That’s simple, our Mantra is: “everything must be measured – and if it’s not working, stop it.”

A focus on results is what marketing should be all about – and that’s the reason we keep attracting clients to our tight-knit, hard working agency in Guernsey.

New clients we’ve worked with in 2010

Some clients have simply wanted a new website or landing page. Others have needed consulting on direct response marketing, copywriting, search engine optimization, graphic design and more. Whatever it is our clients have wanted, we have delivered – and then some.

So what about the year ahead?

Watch this space. There are some very exciting projects coming up in the next few months for this Guernsey advertising agency.

Exciting times ahead for SWN.

Loanshop.gg wanted to position the website as a ‘shop’ – a place visitors can go to get almost any sort of loan they want.

SWN built a simple website that features a page for each type of loan – consolidation, wedding, holiday, etc. We also added a ‘slider’ calculator to the homepage in order to encourage the start of visitors’ applying for their loan of choice.

SWN worked closely with Taverham Halll School in order to ensure the website portrayed the professionalism, friendliness and warmth of the school and its staff. The resulting website is full of nature-themed images, which change colour when clicked on, images of the school and children taking part in activities and a blog that has since been used extensively by the school’s staff.

Taverham Hall School were so thrilled with the results, they have since asked SWN to help them with their search engine optimization efforts so the website can reach the top of Google for target keywords.

Guernsey’s first and only online marketplace was launched in January 2010. It features properties, cars, boats, bikes, jobs, businesses, loans – and just about everything else – all in one place.

Since the launch, we’ve added a menu section, up to the minute weather reports, local sports news and what’s on in Guernsey. If you want to sell your house or car, it’s just 79p per day – and for almost everything else there’s Freebay.

Visitors can create a shortlist, receive alerts or even find a loan using the funky loan calculator.

We love our new Find.gg

The brief was simple: create a sleek website that promotes Black Vanilla’s services in a friendly, professional way. This website does just that. It’s black and vanilla colour scheme, “Goth-chic” design and funky copy all result in a website that our agency – and theirs – is truly proud of.

This website was built in Wordpress.org, with lots of additional web development from our team at SWN. A ‘recycled’ paper background was used and items from the portfolio change each time a page is refreshed.

Google Analytics was implemented and the colour scheme was chosen to fit within the overall branding of Bright Copy.

Ray & Scott recently shocked the watch industry by selling the world’s most expensive ‘non jeweled’ watch – the Blancpain 1735 – for $1,024,000. They then astounded the trade by selling the worlds first belt-driven watch ever created – The Tag Heuer Monaco V4.

SWN created a website that reflects Ray & Scotts pedigree and optimized the site for search engines, such as Google. We added a news section that could be directly updated by Ray & Scott and a section that features the latest brands they stock. We added a page explaining highlighting that buying from Guernsey provides tax-free benefits.

SWN exceeded Ray & Scott’s expectations. The new design reflects the exclusivity of the brands and the i-frame concept means the latest ranges are shown without Ray & Scott needing to update the website.

We created a traditional Scottish-style website that conveys heritage. This appeals to the Asian and Eastern European market. We optimized the website for search engines, such as Google, and included a lockdown resource centre for global distributors. We also developed a content management system (CMS) so the client can update the site whenever they want. A dynamic website delivered on time and on budget.

Quantum Med Marine is an international company with offices in Europe and the US – each with their own websites. The website we were briefed on needed to fit within the family of Quantum websites internationally.

We redesigned the website in order to reflect the industry leading status of Quantum Med Marine and to increase their profile in Guernsey.

The new design reflects the scale of the Quantum operation. It clearly displays their high-calibre products and how they work – through imagery and video. To raise their profile, we also featured images of well-known super yachts that are fitted with Quantum engineering.
