The Challenge
If you’ve taken a look through Effortless Websites portfolio, the name Aspire may be familiar to you. Following the success of Aspire Therapy Services Ltd. website, Dr Krissie Ivings trusted us with her second website, this time for her equestrian brand – Aspire Equestrian Ltd.
Krissie needed a modern website that captures the fun and technical elements of the Aspire Equestrian Camps. An easy to update site and integration with an equestrian event booking site were key requirements of this project.
The Process
Help is on hand
With two businesses to run and various other commitments, Krissie is very busy! It’s reassuring for Krissie that Effortless Websites is responsive and available to help with any larger edits, take on work such as adding new pages at short notice, and to always provide a friendly service or answer to any questions.
Planning for the future
Both of Krissie’s sites were built in the Ionos platform, this allowed for all of the functionality that Krissie needed at the time of launch, and the option for an ecommerce channel to be added seamlessly to the site at a later date if necessary. Having both sites in the same platform also helped to streamline the admin, editing and management time for Krissie.
Booking system integration
A key requirement of this website build was to incorporate event booking functionality, so that riders could book onto the equestrian camps. Horsemonkey was chosen for this purpose – as a dedicated equestrian events booking platform it offered all of the functionality Krissie needed, eliminating the need for an expensive custom built system. The Horsemonkey widget was successfully integrated with the site, and allows customers a smooth transition between the information search and checkout processes.
