Hilton Group looks to Bigger Picture
extracts from magazine article

"I have been resonsible for rebranding several companies in order to bring their visuals up to date. It is often neglected by businesses but has become vitally important as customers source product and services from an international marketplace and they increasingly use the web for searches. It makes sound business sense to get a company's profile up there on Google. It doesn't require massive spends to learn from successful company web strategies and adopt them for your small business. Bigger Picture Web has the expertise and track record to make your web presence truly reflect your own products and expertise to a discerning new online market." James Burke ARPS

Background

"I have been involved in graphics and photography since 1976, mostly in large corporate HQ marketing departments in London. In 1984 I took time out to do an Honours Degree in Photography and subsequently joined Ernst & Young and then Rio Tinto plc at their Headquarters in London. In both these companies I developed in-house presentation services to provide secure and fast turnround facilities. In 1996 at Rio Tinto I got interested in the internet and designed a company intranet. I have been working on visual websites ever since, in both the UK and Irish markets"

In Ireland, the use of the web is catching on now, despite the lag caused by a serious lack of high-speed connections outside of the larger towns. At last this is being addressed and more users are coming onstream all the time.

"I've found that a new generation are taking over in many companies in Ireland and the younger owner-managers are very visually aware and understand what I'm talking about. They make use of the internet and know a good site when they see one. I changed the business name to Bigger Picture because Ireland has to become a forward-looking country and doing business here increasingly means taking the long, broad view beyond the parish walls. In Ireland some 80% of all workers are employed by small businesses.

The internet represents a huge opportunity for a small company to compete on equal footing with the largest and most successful. I offer the chance to take full advantage of the opportunity offered by the web." With Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) becoming increasingly important for small businesses, Bigger Picture Web can make the web really work for businesses in Ireland and I have the track record to prove it.

Gold medal commercial photography with effective websites - available from Bigger Picture

"By making full use of the web, I have broadened my own market considerably. The Hilton Group is just one of the clients I have won through this initiative. I can supply my work on CD or by email, so technology has a great impact on my business. By using Apple Mac equipment, all my products are guaranteed to be virus and malware-free. My business philosophy is simple - deliver the goods on time and to the highest standard. I keep website navigation simple and I put in the work so that my client's websites are easily found on Google. All my business now comes from referrals, which is testimony enough that simple and effective websites work.

Today's business people know the value of keeping overheads to a minimum. I do the same. I do not charge as much as companies with expensive commercial units and large staffs to finance and my low overheads are reflected in my charges. I act as a kind of off-site marketing department and get very involved with my customer's businesses. My working background in London has me well-trained for this and I have not relaxed my standards, despite the temptations of living in rural Ireland. The fact of my charging by the hour means that my clients can spread the cost of having an effective web presence.

In a nutshell, Bigger Picture Web services offer effective new thinking for a challenging new age "
