What we do

That’s a simple one, really. We don’t profess to be a Jack of all Trades, we’d rather just be masters of what we’re good at. And that’s design, building and programming of websites and designing for print. To break that down a bit further, we offer innovative and stunning solutions for your web requirements, from stylish Brochure Sites through to Content Management Systems and a straight-forward Ecommerce package which cuts through the complications of online shopping.

If it’s design for print you’re after, we can handle it – whether it’s a simple letterhead design or a 200-plus page colour brochure, our highly-skilled and talented design team will give you the image you need. We can create your branding from scratch if you’re a start-up, or maybe you’re established and just fancy something completely new. We’ll even give your existing identity a make-over if it’s looking a bit tired and dated, making sure your clients see you exactly the way you want them to.

The rest of our team
Part of the reason for Freebird’s success is the simple yet effective way we approach our industry. When we create a website for you, you’ll get a top level graphic designer looking after the front end, a qualified programmer building the back end, and dedicated copy writers and photographers making sure your content is perfect for a stylish, effective site which will appeal to both your customers and the search engines. It’s a plain old simple case of ‘horses for courses’ – you get the appropriate professional carrying out each individual part of your project, making sure you really do get the best of everything, and no detail is overlooked.

And when it comes to designing for print, you can rest assured that your work will be created by designers who know the ins and outs of today’s print processes – after all, it’s the only way you can be sure you’ll get the perfect end result every time. If you want, we’ll liaise directly with your printer, taking the hassle and worry out of the whole process. If you’re not sure who to use, we can even recommend one of our tried and trusted partner companies, who are guaranteed to offer the best presses and finest quality work at a competitive price.
