A website should help customers (or staff) do stuff really easily. If it's not simple and intuitive your viewers will leave and your business will miss the opportunity to reduce costs and improve customer service. To get a return on your web investment you need to choose your most common customer tasks and relentlessly refine them.back >>Page 1The 3M's of good online businessMost people, Most often, Most value. It's that simple. Be clear on who your primary target audience is and really focus on what they most need. The more you try to cater to every possible audience, the more you dilute your proposition to the customers who are of most value to you. Good web is as much about what you choose not to provide as it is about what you do provide.more >>Page 3Page 2“… Cobussen have delivered web-based and print publications and solutions to the FB Group HR Division since 2002. Their work is innovative, is consistently of high standard – and is always delivered to deadline. Sandy has an excellent understanding of our business and its communications technology, a refreshingly “can-do” attitude, and sound business relationships with our general management community. Together, these strengths have made Cobussen ideal internal communications business partners.”Peter Merry, Executive General Manager HR, Fletcher Buildingmore >>Page 1What do our customers say?I appreciate their attentive service, no fuss manner, and particularly their quality of output and on-time delivery. The Cobussens have a knack of getting to the really important elements of message, understanding content and style from the audiences' perspective and then using creative techniques to craft highly effective communications. We are currently using them to review our web strategy. They have a superior method of distilling the core needs of a web strategy and creating punchy, effective sites.Robert Gibbes, General Manager New Zealand, The Laminex Groupmore >>Page 3 “Cobussen understand the landscape in which we operate and provide value because they have worked in the building industry for a long time and have networks within it that we can leverage. They are pragmatic and realistic about what companies like ours can and should do – both in terms of affordability and engaging the organisation. As senior executives, we are often unable to give as much head space as we’d like to communication and it has been great to have Cobussen come into our business, know what they need to do and get on with it. They have very good relationships throughout our business and we trust them to work autonomously and always provide us with value for money.”Michele Creagh, Marketing Manager and Dan Mulvagh, HR and OD Manager, Firth Industriesmore >>Page 4“… Cobussen developed a strategy and roadmap that was universally supported by all regions and business units, as well as Fonterra’s most senior executives…the project was delivered on time and under budget – an achievement that should not be underestimated given the complexity of the job and the client. This is the first of perhaps 20 projects that I have been involved with at Fonterra ... Simply put, without Sandy and her team Fonterra would still be months away from going live with what I have no doubt would be an inferior intranet to the one we have just relaunched.”Steve Fisher, former MD, Baldwin Boyle Group and GM of Corporate Communications for Fonterraback >> Copyright - Cobussen & Cobussen Ltd 2010.
