By using a mobile app via WordPress, our content management system, Latimer’s are able to photograph the newest catch, add a message and then post the update straight to their website.
Gift vouchers available for any amount
After incorporating e-commerce, fans of Latimer’s food can purchase gift vouchers online via the site itself.
Once the e-voucher is received and printed, the gift receiver takes it to Latimer’s Deli counter where the QR code is scanned. This checks the voucher is valid and the customer can spend their voucher!
As well as the website update, Latimer’s were keen to get this new feature added to their site to give customers a new way to interact with the company.
Ailsa Latimer, Co-Owner of Latimer’s Seafood Deli, said “Robert and I revisited Urban River about adding a gift voucher element. We were then introduced to the capabilities of social media and updating the website through our mobile phones which we find extremely beneficial to promoting Latimer’s as a company.
As a result, we’re getting positive feedback from customers about the new site; the modernised system has revolutionised how we use it and we update the content at least twice a week now as opposed to sometimes every couple of months! What I like about Urban River is the human element, I like being able to ring if I have a problem and pop in and see someone with my computer to get them to show me how to get the best out of the new technology.”
