We were contacted by FASteambanners to redesign their website with a Flex application offering that would allow customers to design their own sports team banners.

Bravo Design, Inc. custom developed a Magento e-commerce based site as our Flash/Flex development network partners concurrently created the “Design Your Own Banner” application. We also developed several custom functions and a custom shipping “Time in Transit Estimator” that was integrated with the UPS API, which allowed the client to manually update their ship-out dates by product type.

The main project goal was to allow FASteambanners to have a more robust web presence and to be able to compete with the other banner printing companies that were rolling out their own custom banner builders.  While several of their competitors appeared to use clipart packages, FASteambanners was illustrating each piece of clipart with the same quality that allowed their airbrush business to thrive.

During the project, the client was informed that their current hosting company would no longer be supporting several of the PHP4 scripts, designed 12 years prior, that ran the website.  As a result, our web development team worked strenuously to complete the project in time for the fall sports season, a very busy time for FASteambanners which would average up to 45 custom banner orders a day.

The website launched successfully, and our client is ecstatic that their products are now being listed, on average, a good 30-50 positions higher on Google’s respective search results.
