 Brand & Retail Website
The Brand
First impressions do matter, especially when selling food
online. In today’s digital world, nothing will cast doubt on your credibility
faster than a poorly conceived brand, such as a logo that looks like it was
created on a do-it-yourself site or a website that looks like it was handed
off to a relative because they’re ‘good with computers.’ Customers will see
right through an unsophisticated branding effort and tie it to the quality of
your food products.
The FEAST brand, the look and feel of our logo, website,
marketing collateral and more, was explicitly designed to convey quality,
authenticity and personal connection: our three lodestars. It is minimalist by design to emphasize the individual products and services.
With the assistance of a graphics designer, we will work with
you to create a logo for your new company that blends seamlessly with our existing
brand, thereby giving you the complete visual package for your website, product
labels, marketing collateral and more.
The Website
The FEAST retail website reflects this minimalist approach and results from a careful collaboration between business owner, customer and marketing
professionals.
▪ Impression – The
colors of the branded palette, professional photography and easy-to-understand graphics
are used throughout, resulting in intuitive navigation. This website is a close cousin of the retail site
in terms of look and feel.
▪ Functionality – The
site is designed with the customer foremost in mind: simple and straightforward
to navigate and securely checkout for even the most technically
challenged.
▪ Administration –
It effectively supports promoting and selling a wide range of food products
and services and has useful internal marketing features and excellent reporting tools. The backend functions are distinct and easy
to manage.
Using your new domain name, we work
directly with you to carefully build out a new website
1 with your new business
identity, compelling narrative, additional stock or custom-shoot photography
2 and
other content that reflects your specific business objectives and values and
that speaks to your target market.
We can create new pages as needed, add new graphics
and more, whatever will best reflect you and your unique brand and help you
sell your food products. And, of course, we train you to use all the relevant
features and functions. Ultimately, it's 100% your website to update and
grow and we are not referenced anywhere on it.

it yours.
Notes
1 – Our e-commerce platform experience has been predominantly with Volusion, primarily because of their convenient all-in-one services approach and ease of use. That said, our content is easily adaptable to just about any other e-commerce platform should you have another one in mind.
2- We have a limited portfolio of professionally shot,
commercial kitchen-related photography available for use. You can also use commercial stock
images effectively, which are relatively inexpensive to
purchase. To personalize your site and increase connection with your customers, we recommend a shot or two of you or you and your team. A professional photographer is
always best but you can get decent results with newer smartphones
or tablets with a bit of practice. Additional commercial stock images, most of which are
licensed, and any professional photography are not included in the agreement.
