The Leather Briefcase Co makes profit after just a few weeks.
here is a perfect example of a business made for the web. using a combination of web marketing strategies, this small shop was ranking highly with Google within a few days of being launched.

shortly afterwards a pay-per-click campaign was added which drove instant traffic to the site. after a couple of weeks this site paid for itself and now it produces a healthy income for its owner.

we carried out all the programming for the brochure, shopping basket and card merchant integration as well as a full content management system for uploading and editing products.

visual design was carried out mainly by Imagine-it.
