1 Introduction DS Design started in April 2014 as DS Web Design, in Liverpool, UK. We designed and built our first two clients websites within our first month. Our first clients are companies and a sports association who didn't have a website. We have since added a third client in the August. Since our initial start-up, we have seen our list of services grow from just web design to include other forms of designing. We may be local-based designers, but we operate nationwide (and worldwide). We specialise in producing high-quality websites, at affordable prices. We are introducing a new joke t-shirt range through our on-line store launching in 2016. We also print designs for phone cases, darts flights, drinks bottles and more gifts. Our list of clients range in a wide-range of business sectors. We have built websites and designed logos for all our clients. In December 2015 we have upgraded our software allowing us to build more effective and high-quality websites and allow us to add more services to our impressive résumé. Many designers charge excessive prices and produce a poor standard of work, but DS Design always produce high-quality, professional standard websites at competitive prices. Our web design service includes: unlimited page, ecommerce or standard websites, domain name, web hosting, logo/web-sign, social media pages, YouTube channel, email setup, mobile responsive, SEO, business directory listings, free support website maintenance and on-site work. Furthermore, we now offer our clients a free sample page, showing them an example of their site and you only pay when the work is complete. There are many reasons why you should choose DS Design over other web designers the main reason being complete 100% customer satisfaction! DS Design is proud to say all our websites will look professionally made, instead of looking like something from the 1980's (like some sites). Tailor-made sites, for personal or business use. We offer on site-work and, at times, free travelling, so we can collaborate fully with our clients. We can also maintain your website, making sure it is fully up-to-date. At DS Design, we believe all businesses should be using technology to help take them to the next level. Websites should not be considered for only national/international corporations. Websites are now an asset that every business, whether big or small now possess. Customers use websites as their first point of call, so your online presence needs to look the part. Modern businesses rely on the internet, but unfortunately, so do customers. Customers now go online, to check up on businesses, to compare prices, services, location, find stock availability or even the existence. Tourists prefer to check online for cafés, restaurants, shops, etc for opening hours, services and customer reviews. Websites can be used in many ways and will give you an advantage above your competition through online reservations, ordering and special discounts. We cater for private and commercial clients and we never ask for up-front payments! We send you an invoice and you can pay at the end of the month. DS Design is constantly improving our customer experience and adding new features/services/improvements to help us achieve this.

4 Stationery At DS Design we can help design your own stationery, for any occasion. Stationery is a great way to get attention and advertising. Purchasing business stationery is not something all businesses consider an important business decision that needs careful thought and deliberation. However, business stationery is very important because it not only identifies the business, but it is also an effective marketing tool. Custom stationery demonstrates professionalism and can often attract new clients. When considering business stationery, managers should consider the following benefits of creating custom designed professional stationery: Business Stationery Projects the Company s Image Establishing trust is an important part of attracting and maintaining clients. The main purpose of business stationery is to depict the company in a positive and professional manner. Professional stationery tells clients and potential clients that the business is professional and legitimate. Quality stationery will leave a long lasting impression. It is basically the face of the company. Stationery helps with Networking When corresponding with clients and other businesses, business stationery is the first thing they notice. As well, when meeting potential clients for the first time at a meeting or conference, business cards are the first thing they see from the company. Quality business stationery is part of the introduction and should represent the company in a positive manner. It is important to remember that after a company representative gives a business card and leaves, the business card remains with the potential client so it is important the card depicts the company s professionalism. Custom stationery demonstrates that the business welcomes and appreciates the client s business. Business Stationery as a Marketing Tool Because businesses are constantly sending out communications, giving out business cards, and other office related items, it is important that businesses acquire and use a variety of different types of stationery. This can include custom stationery letterheads, envelopes, business cards, pens, pencils, invoice and compliment slips, brochures, folders, roller stands, contract proposals, quotes and estimates, letters of recommendation, thanks and apology, and more. By having a variety of different types of businesses stationery, they will be constantly marketing their businesses in a creative, professional, and non-intrusive manner. The stationery should be unique to the company with a distinct logo, memorable, high quality, and reflect the professionalism of the company.
Stationery that is Uniquely Customized 4 Stationery Companies can have stationery designed to their own specifications to meet their business needs and desires. There are professional stationery design companies that will design the stationery with the appropriate colours, images, and patterns. They are designed to meet the specifications and wishes of an individual business. The customer gives the stationery company a concept and design and the stationery is made according to their specific requests. The result is distinctive stationery that sets a business apart from their competition. For instance, colour printed stationery with a unique business logo can catch a potential client s attention and increase interest in the company. Custom stationery is the best way to show business professionalism and show a company is a positive manner. As well, it can lead to company branding. Business stationery is an important part of increasing a company s public visibility.
5 Clothes Printing If you want to promote your brand in an offline marketing campaign, then there are many different types of products that you can use. Promoting a business is all about boosting brand awareness, which means you will need to have a company logo designed before you start organising a marketing campaign. T-shirts are a really popular way to market any type of business as they are good value for money and they can be used to reach out to a whole new audience. If you have decided to invest in some t-shirts, then it is vital to ensure that you get them printed by a professional company. There s no point in spending money on 300 t-shirts simply to get them printed by a cheap company as your logo will just fall off after a few washes. You can find garment printing companies easily online and they can print anything from t- shirts though to shorts or hats. These promotional products are often given away for free as a way to advertise the company name and to get people to recognise a logo. The great thing about using a t-shirt to boost brand awareness is that potentially lots of people will see it It is important to use a t-shirt that people will want to wear otherwise other people will never see your company name or logo and the branding is then pointless. This means that you should invest in t-shirts that are of a decent quality and often you get better value for money when you buy in bulk. Once you have found a good value for money deal on your t-shirts, you can then take them to a professional printing company and have your logo printed onto them. It is up to you if you add anything else such as a slogan or a photo. Currently, DS Design s garment printing is operated by our trusted, third-party supplier. We are looking to find our own garment printing equipment. Once, we can carry out our own garment service, we will be able to offer this service at a reduced price. If we need to use a third-party supplier, we will make sure we choose the best. We want you to feel you are in safe hands, without the need to worry.
6 Audio & Video What better way of getting yourself noticed than your own video or song! Well we have the software to do just that. Adding video to your website allows you to communicate your key messages and attracts more traffic from your key target market in an engaging way. Did you know Google and YouTube are best friends? Well they are owned by the same! Websites which incorporate video score a lot more points with search engines, giving you a big boost over your competitors who do not use them. As YouTube is owned by Google, we recommend uploading your videos directly there, then embedding the video to your website a great method to boost your SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). Better visitor engagement When someone visits your website, video is an exciting and excellent method of communicating with them. Watching and listening to well-produced video content is more engaging than reading pages of text and requires much less effort. Most people also remember information which is conveyed in an audio/visual format better than information they read. Easier communication Complex messages are often hard to communicate with written words, even when accompanied by static images. On the other hand, a video or presentation will immediately bring your message to life in a way your audience can easily relate to and remember. Promotional Video Marketing Meeting Social media If visitors that come to your website like your videos, your content they are likely to forward the link to colleagues and associates or share it through social media websites such as Facebook or Twitter. This helps drive a lot more traffic to your website, and creates a buzz about your business. Returning visitors Many website owners who currently use video marketing find that adding video increases return visits to their website, especially if they are adding videos regularly.
