The right person will be happy to put in the effort and go the extra mile when required.

Our studio is in Ascot and our team are all office based, as we believe it’s the best place to create and collaborate as a team. Please note, we are not looking for remote-based candidates.

Get Ahead for the New Year: Why Completing Business Collateral and Website before Christmas is Essential for a Successful Start https://jaijo.com/get-ahead-for-the-new-year-why-completing-business-collateral-and-website-before-christmas-is-essential-for-a-successful-start/ Thu, 14 Dec 2023 12:06:35 +0000 https://jaijo.com/?p=48000 As the festive season draws near, businesses often find themselves immersed in the whirlwind of holiday preparations. However, amidst the festivities, it’s crucial not to overlook an essential aspect—ensuring all your business collateral and website are primed and ready before Christmas arrives. Why, you ask? Well, let’s delve into why this forward-thinking approach is a game-changer for a successful start to the new year.

  1. First Impressions Matter: Your website and collateral materials serve as the face of your brand. They’re often the first point of contact for potential customers. A polished, updated website and professional collateral create a lasting impression, conveying reliability and competence, which can significantly impact customer decisions.
  2. Strategic Momentum: The period after Christmas and leading into the new year is crucial for businesses to gain momentum. By having your website and collateral ready beforehand, you’re poised to hit the ground running. Instead of scrambling to update outdated information, you can focus on strategic planning and kickstart the new year with sales initiatives and marketing campaigns.
  3. Competitive Edge: In a highly competitive market, staying ahead is key. Completing your business materials early gives you an edge over competitors who might delay their updates until after the holiday season. By being proactive, you position your brand as responsive, organized, and ready to meet customers’ needs promptly.
  4. Streamlined Operations: Getting your business collateral and website ready ahead of time allows for a smoother operational transition into the new year. It minimises potential disruptions and gives your team the chance to address any unforeseen issues before they impact the business.

At Jaijo, we understand the significance of a well-prepared digital presence and collateral materials for businesses. Our team specialises in creating engaging websites and impactful design collateral that resonate with your audience. Whether it’s refreshing your website’s look, crafting compelling marketing materials, or ensuring cohesive branding across platforms, we’re here to help you gear up for success.

This holiday season, take the opportunity to set your business up for a prosperous start in the new year. Don’t let the rush of the season delay your progress. Get in touch with us at Jaijo, and let’s collaborate to ensure your business enters the new year with confidence and a compelling online presence.

Remember, the early bird catches the worm, and in the world of business, being prepared ahead of time can make all the difference. Wishing you a joyful festive season and a prosperous new year filled with success!

Stay ahead, stay ready, and pave the way for a thriving 2024!

Some silverware to end the year https://jaijo.com/some-silverware-to-end-the-year/ Wed, 23 Dec 2020 16:05:50 +0000 https://jaijo.com/?p=17862 Like many of our clients and colleagues we feel like we’ve worked harder this year than ever before. It’s been challenging to manage the workload and keep everything operating at as close to business as usual with all that’s been going on in the world. We have been very luck in that we are generally able to work from home quite comfortably, but nothing beats being in the studio together and bouncing ideas round to get the best results.

Let’s hope that the new year brings a little normality to the world.

Silver lining

While the planet has been in a state of panic over the pandemic, we have been able to continue to serve our clients. You may already know we are somewhat specialists in the Estate Agent Website arena and so, when we get something to shout about you can be sure we’ll make some noise.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that our wonderful clients Barton Wyatt Estate Agents in Virginia Water won the Best Estate Agency Website in the UK at the International Property Awards. Obviously, we work hard to make sure that our work is of the highest quality, but it is nice to get a little nod every now and then.

The awards are judged by a large panel of property professionals from all around the world who are specialists in various areas of real estate. The entries must fit certain criteria and the judges decide which entries perform the best.

While most of the credit lies with the Barton Wyatt team and the tremendous job they do on the property side of things, we’ll take some kudos for the content and design of the site which showcases some of the most beautiful properties in the country… like really, you need to go and have a browse.

So, we say goodbye to 2020 with some much-needed positive news and we look forward to seeing you in the New Year.

Get in Touch

Remember if you are looking to design a website, brand or even start a business in the new year, make sure you give us a call on 01344 566434 or email us. You can also follow us on FacebookTwitterInstagram and LinkedIn.
