Making it look good means more sales
It's a fact. If something looks good, people warm to it. And, if they warm to it, they are more likely to buy it.
We use the best talent
At Active, we have top graphic designers from top agencies working for us. No compromise. Their work is outstanding and many of our graphic designers' work you will have seen in national press, specialist magazines and on television.
We use the latest technology - with solid foundations
Traditional Design
Active use Adobe Creative Suite 4 as a central platform and all our graphic designers use Adobe Creative Suite 3 or above. They are mature designers, all with over 10 years experience - having worked at bigger agencies and across multiple accounts. Their ability to use the software is enhanced by their artistic ability to sketch, scamp and conceptualise. Their artistic ability, coupled with the right software tools, generates excellent work at the finest of standards.
Digital
We use the latest web authoring tools as we move into ever more complex database driven websites. Utilising the latest AJAX, PHP and Javascript libraries alongside Dreamweaver and other development tools, we can maximise design and user-interaction whilst knowing that ALL our web team can open the files in Notepad and edit the code directly.
This combination of foundation skills, developed over the last 10 years with the latest software, is very powerful.
