The approach
we took
Challenge
SkiBoutique required a website that not only showcased the finest chalets but also allowed management of the complete client engagement process – from search and enquiry to curated recommendation, booking, and itinerary generation. The site needed to be fast, SEO-optimised, and reflect a strong brand identity conveying elegance and first-class service.
Solution
Cerebrum consulted extensively to understand and document SkiBoutique’s brand position, user experience, and functional requirements. We developed a custom extension on TYPO3 CMS to manage regions, chalets, and client data, and designed a workflow to manage enquiries through to booking and payment.
A fully mobile responsive template delivered a luxury brand experience and an excellent user experience. Cerebrum provided training, hosting, and ongoing support, enabling SkiBoutique to take full control of the website. In 2018, the site was passed to SkiBoutique’s UK-based IT partner for hosting and maintenance, while Cerebrum continues to provide ad-hoc support.
Results
- Stylish website reflecting the client’s brand identity
- Easy customer engagement and navigation
- Simplified enquiry, availability, pricing, itinerary generation, and booking processes
