Who is JJ Smith?

JJ Smith supplies woodworking machinery to some of the best-known manufacturing brands in the UK and worldwide.

The company is over a century old and is known as a highly experienced, expert advisor in woodworking manufacturing.

You've likely seen or touched wooden products manufactured with machinery supplied by JJ Smith at some point!

The challenge

The company had a dated website, with little focus on lead generation, and poor usability.

The first element of the project was to reorganise the website, for a better customer experience, and better search performance.

The second element was to refresh the JJ Smith brand, with a bold, fresh look for the company's centenary year.

The project included bespoke features including a quote builder and API integration with the company's live product database.

The solution

We ran a successful project together which included:

  • Agreeing the project goals at the outset
  • Scoping the project's technical requirements 
  • Workshops to establish strategy, and for the brand development
  • Creating wireframes and designs section-by-section, to make sure everything is technically achievable
  • A managed build process with sign-off of each section in turn
  • New functionality added including quoting and ordering facilities
  • Post-launch video monitoring to make sure visitors are finding the website easy to use
  • Ongoing support post-launch to continual improve search and conversion performance

The site is now live at https://www.jjsmith.co.uk/

“The rebranded and rebuilt website has performed much better than the old website, and our ongoing work since launch has meant that performance improvement has continued.

"The secret to success with this project has been the continual improvement since launch, with the addition of quote building and direct ordering options for JJ Smith's clients.

"Although this was a complex project, with API integration, and a large product database to migrate, with careful planning we were able to deliver the project smoothly and on time."
