Project Summary
Codal built a new WordPress website for a Chicago-based production brewery, focusing on brand presentation, e-commerce/merchandising, and newsletter registration. The vendor designed the site, implemented merchandising and payment processing components, and delivered the project after a multi-iteration design process. The client praised the site's usability and visual design and highlighted Codal's hands-on project leadership and responsiveness.
Key Challenges
- Replace an old, slow, and clunky website that poorly represented the brand
- Lack of in-house technical staff required a partner to produce code, design, and launch the site
Project Deliverables
- New WordPress website
- Newsletter registration functionality
- E-commerce/merchandising and payment processing components
- Design iterations and final UI
Project Solution
Codal built the client's website from scratch using WordPress. They designed and iterated the site's UI, implemented informational pages plus contact and newsletter signup functionality, and added merchandising and payment/processing components. Day-to-day the client worked with a four-person Codal team (project manager, designer, developer, and a team member responsible for collecting information). The vendor delivered the site after a 4–5 month development period and assisted with subsequent tweaks.
Project Outcome
- Positive user reception: site described as easy to use and visually attractive
- Vendor implemented requested features and was responsive to feedback
- Well-organized site and solid project management; delivered after the development period and billed based on agreed hours
