PLOTT gets (back) to work
Regular readers know our first step by now. It’s the PLOTT workshop whirlwind – which isn’t a trademark, but should be. We know the industry inside-out by now, and we knew the client very well too. That’s a significant head start, but you never know what you don’t know. So for a project of this size we’ll always workshop with our client.
It was an opportunity for Dominic and Mark to pitch their idea, and tell us of their aspirations for Becketts Connect. Becketts Connect was to be a sister-site – connected, if you will – to Becketts Financial Services, while also standing alone.
The core message of their service is that clients get the benefit of all the experience and expertise of Becketts, but delivered with the efficient use of technology and a simplified pricing structure. The brand we delivered has a modern aspect with bold colours, a friendly and straightforward tone-of-voice and photography that shows people connecting – by phone, by email, by computer. The strapline, Connect to your future, is reinforced with a playful “connect the dots” graphic. This follows you on your journey through the site.
The chatty text style explains the service clearly, and expresses their desire to bring this service to everyone. Most pages feature a photograph of and quote by a member of the Becketts Connect team. This shows that it’s a human service, with real flesh-and-blood financial planners with you all the way.
