Background: 

In June 2019, Recycled Office Solutions (ROS), led by Managing Director Grant, entered the market, specialising in recycling used office furniture. The prerequisite for launching was a budget-friendly e-commerce website to facilitate easy reselling of stock. While exploring digital marketing agencies near Portsmouth, Grant discovered Hangar47. An immediate, clear, and jargon-free response from Aleks at Hangar47 instilled confidence and facilitated a collaboration.

Client’s Words:

“I contacted several agencies, but getting a response from some was difficult! Aleks at Hangar47 was able to respond almost immediately and within days we had our first face-to-face meeting.”

“Hangar47 responded instantly to my inquiry and after the first conversation with Aleks, I knew he would be able to help us. Compared with other agencies, he was straight-talking–no jargon where it wasn’t needed and I felt like we’d be in safe hands.”

“I had a vision of what I wanted and Aleks was able to provide a business spin on things… I felt that with his experience, he knew what he was talking about and so I was able to avoid making unnecessary design faults.”

The Brief:

Grant emphasised the necessity of managing a high turnover of stock and maintaining cost-effectiveness, both achieved through Hangar47’s ‘Website Revolution’ package. This offered ROS a comprehensive e-commerce setup with an affordable initial set-up fee and a manageable monthly payment plan. The website, designed, developed, and launched within just 3 weeks, empowered the company to independently manage inventory, adding or removing products as needed.

Outcome & Future Collaborations:

ROS experienced a triumphant launch in June 2019 and witnessed a 600% increase in monthly turnover after initiating a social media campaign managed by Hangar47, which also handled ROS’s additional marketing support and promotional material design. Enthused by the ongoing success, Grant expanded the business, introducing new furniture items and commissioning Hangar47 for a second website for a sister company, ‘New Office Solutions’.

Final Thought from Grant:

“I didn’t even have to think about who I’d ask to support us with this next step in our journey – the proof is in the pudding and we’re thrilled how well the business is doing. We couldn’t have done it without Hangar47!”
