Website Development

In this proposal, you’ll find specific details of how we can create a website that achieves your goals as per the brief supplied.

Our breakdown is based on all content (such as wording for the various sections) and beautiful high res images being supplied by yourself. Should you require a photographer for images (original images are always better than stock images) this can be arranged at an additional fee.

Copywriting services have can be included, for the copy used on the website. Or you will need to supply the copy required.

In terms of your corporate identity, social media management and sponsored ads, please refer to the email and package breakdown (it has not been included in this proposal).

We have the pleasure of detailing what we have researched and the options we propose below:

Project Requirements

- We propose the creation of the following pages: Homepage, About Us, Auctions, For Sale, Services and Financing, Legal, Contact Us - On the "Homepage" we will provide a brief explanation of what it is the company does, how the auction process works and general information on the other services they offer (copy supplied or an additional fee for our copywriter to assist). Calls-to-action will be provided throughout this page, giving the user ample opportunity to proceed to the section they are interested in engaging in. - The "Auctions" page will provide details on upcoming auctions and further information on the actual auction/bidding process. We will also provide event reminder features and sign-ups. - The "For Sale" page will essentially be the product catalogue section with all the items that will be up for auction displayed under their relevant auction date and category (cars, properties, etc). - The "Services and Financing" page will provide further details on the extra services that are offered. This will include the option to hire an auctioneer and provide further details on the financing options. - The "Legal" page will provide all the necessary legal information related to the auctions and purchasing/bidding processes. We can also include an FAQ section here if needs be. - The "Contact Us" page will provide all the necessary addresses and contact details for the company and its auctions. - Links to your AuctionSoft website and user-registration account will be set up throughout the website.
