Glide

Glide is a renowned software company that focuses on developing cutting-edge solutions for accountants to simplify and streamline their client workflow. Recognising the importance of a strong online presence, Glide approached us to revamp their website and effectively communicate their software's benefits to potential customers.

Introduction

We specialise in creating innovative websites that cater to the unique needs of our clients. In this case study, we will explore how we collaborated with Glide, a leading software company based in the Peterborough area.

Challenges

  • Outdated Website:
    Glide’s existing website and branding had an outdated design and lacked a clear structure, making it difficult for visitors to navigate and understand the software’s value proposition.
  • Limited Lead Generation:
    The website was not optimised for lead generation, resulting in missed opportunities to capture potential customer information and convert them into qualified leads.
  • Inadequate Information Presentation:
    The website content did not effectively showcase Glide’s software features and benefits, leaving visitors uncertain about its capabilities and value.

Rebrand

We agreed that in order to achieve Glide’s business goals we needed a fresh start and to address their current logo and branding, which was tired and dated. We introduced a new sense of energy and sophistication, perfectly capturing Glide’s innovative approach to software development.

We crafted a new colour palette while also reflecting the vibrant nature of the team. We also selected a more contemporary font, aligning with Glide’s vision for the future and ensuring their branding resonates with their target audience. Through this revitalised logo and branding, Glide now possesses a powerful visual identity that truly represents their forward-thinking software solutions for accountancy practices.

Strategies & Solutions

  • Comprehensive Website Redesign:
    We conducted a thorough analysis of Glide’s target audience, industry trends, and competitor websites to develop a new website design strategy. Our team focused on creating a modern, visually appealing, and user-friendly interface that aligned with Glide’s brand identity and software offerings. Using subtle animation we encapsulated the essence of what the Glide software provides by using seemingly random letters that animate into position for form the words: Visibility, Automation, Control.
  • Clear Value Proposition:
    We worked closely with Glide to refine and articulate their software’s unique selling points and benefits. By highlighting the key features, efficiency gains, and time savings, we aimed to clearly communicate the value of Glide’s software to potential customers.
  • Lead Generation Optimisation:
    We implemented strategic lead generation tactics throughout the website, including prominent call-to-action buttons and optimised contact forms. By offering valuable resources, such as white papers or free trials, we encouraged visitors to provide their contact information, thereby generating qualified leads.
  • Intuitive Navigation and User Experience:
    We redesigned the website’s information architecture and navigation to ensure a seamless user experience. By simplifying menu structures and improving content organisation, we aimed to make it easier for visitors to explore Glide’s software offerings and find relevant information.
  • Engaging Content and Visuals:
    We collaborated with Glide to develop compelling content that effectively conveyed the software’s benefits and use cases. Using an animated SVG flow diagram to visually show how the Glide workflow operates. This included incorporating visually appealing graphics, videos case studies that showcased real-world examples of how Glide’s software streamlines accountant workflows.
