The Brief
The mission was to create an engaging and comprehensive online platform that showcases GSD's brand portfolio, introduces new products, and expands its reach to potential resellers.
The revamped platform also had to meet FITA accessibility directives, ensuring inclusivity and accessibility for all users. Additionally, the platform incorporated GSD's sustainable efforts, facilitates HR recruitment and allows seamless tour booking. With a tight deadline, the team faced the challenge of meeting ambitious goals while adhering to multiple franchise guidelines while focusing on crafting a visually appealing, mobile-optimised, and user-friendly website that showcases GSD's rich heritage, diverse brand portfolio, and commitment to sustainability.
Main Challenges
Launching a website within an ambitious 3-month timeframe was an epic challenge.
To ensure success the team conducted weekly meetings to discuss milestones, responsibilities, and quality control measures. Navigating multiple franchise guidelines posed an additional challenge, requiring strict adherence to brand specifications for colours, design elements, and image usage. Despite this, the team's strategic approach and commitment led to a successful website launch meeting the deadline and brand requirements.
Project Process
After a detailed project kick-off meeting, where requirements were discussed thoroughly, we navigated the demands of major franchises, keeping adherence to brand guidelines as a top priority. A comprehensive mood board was created to establish the creative direction, aligning our vision with GSD's preferences.
A competition analysis helped us understand industry standards. Development began using WordPress, resulting in an innovative concept - a dynamic clock categorizing brands based on time and activities, enhancing user experience. Accessibility was a key focus. After user training, the website, fully responsive and accessible, went live within the tight 3-month timeline. The result: an optimized digital platform reflecting GSD's excellence and brands effectively.
Result & Conclusion
The transformative collaboration between The General Soft Drinks Co Ltd and 4Sight Group has yielded a dynamic info-rich online platform that exquisitely reflects GSD's essence and resonates with its target audiences. The team's strategic approach and meticulous planning led to a successful website launch within the stipulated timeline. By embracing cutting-edge technologies, we have witnessed how creative thinking, effective communication, and unwavering dedication resulted in the realisation of GSD's vision, further solidifying its position as a leading player in the beverage industry.
