With many products to be proud of, but having only a basic brochure website with little in the way of quality content to promote them, William Mitchell could no longer rely purely on their printed collateral and reputable name to expose their constantly expanding product range; they needed a progressive ecommerce solution to match the company rebrand and new packaging Toxic Creative had developed for them earlier the same year.
Although William Mitchell do not require any purchase functionality, it is integral that they have a system that not only allows the admin users to easily upload new products along with photography and specification information; but that also allows the end user to instinctively navigate through such a vast range of different products.
