About Us
Forward Slash Media has been in operation for 14 years as a cutting edge web agency offering services across both web design and web development. We focus on providing companies with high end digital solutions to online business models and as such retain highly skilled specialists both within our web design and web development teams.
Confidence
We know that when choosing to do business with a company it is absolutely crucial that you can trust in their ability to do the job in hand. Here's a couple of good reasons why we can be so sure that we will deliver what we say we will!
- 14 years experience in developing live web solutions.
- Work performed across 30 vertical markets.
- A pedigree of prior work including companies such as EDS, Bristol Old Vic and Chippenham Town Council.
- A core team of specialists in all required disciplines.
- Over zealous customer service and technical support operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
Methodology
Our approach to web production is as unique as it is simple. We do not see ourselves as "techies" or "designers" but instead operate from the perspective of the end solution. What should the end deliverable do? How should it work? Who is the target audience? By defining the end result in terms of ROI we are then able to draw up both a functional and a design specification.
Our approach allows us to be confident not only of our pricing and timescales but more importantly of our promises. Combine this with our prior experience and you have a formula you can rely on!
