Building the Venues of Excellence website
Specialist Venue Finder
The Venues of Excellence website offers a wide range of specialist venues for events, conferences, and training. Venue owners must first fill out a simple membership form before our client checks them against their strict criteria, to ensure they meet their high standards of quality. Customers can then find a venue through the site and be confident knowing they're booking an excellent location that's ideal for their event.
The website blends informative blog and news platforms with easy-to-navigate membership and venue search to create an engaging and practical site with sleek design.
Responsive Design
The responsive design of the website ensures it can be viewed across platforms, from desktops and laptops, to mobiles and tablets. From the functional aspects, such as in-built forms and navigation, to the design itself, it's optimised to work on any device the user is viewing it from, adjusting based on screen resolution to provide an exceptional user experience.
A responsive website has allowed our client to reach a wider audience that's far more diverse. It also helps with SEO as Google favours mobile-friendly sites, making them more visible in search results than those that aren't optimised.
Configurable Search
As the website's main function is to help their customers find the venue that's right for their unique event, the search had to be highly configurable whilst remaining easy to use. Users can select from specific criteria, including the area of the country, how many people will be coming to the event, and the type of building they're looking for, before the system filters results to display the best matches. An integrated Google Map feature also displays pinned locations of venues for an easy-to-navigate selection.
Once the customer has found a venue, a form makes it simple for them to enquire further and get in touch with the Venues of Excellence team. This new search and selection process makes it easier for users to find what they're looking for and encourages them to move forward with a booking.
Members Portal For Exclusive Content
For members, the website contains a portal with access to exclusive content. There is also a job board that members can post to, allowing them to reach people in similar industries and easily fill positions within their business. These areas within the website that are exclusive to members add an extra incentive to sign up to Venues of Excellence, alongside their main purpose of pairing venues with the customers who need them. Further benefits are listed in a downloadable PowerPoint, giving users an easy-to-view overview of what they get from signing up.

What Our Clients Say
Scorchsoft helped us take our idea for an app and make it a reality. Everything from the planning meeting to decide what we really needed to the project management and execution was great. It was delivered on time - early in fact - and on budget. Highly recommend.
Rebecca PalserDragonfly IntelligenceScorchsoft is a brilliant company with fantastic knowledge of the mobile app industry. From the project management to the development team, they have been the perfect candidate for our project, and we can't thank them enough!
Lance ChorltonGapped OnlineWe're really pleased with the work Scorchsoft has done in developing our web portal! They have been accurate with timelines and budget, delivering a solid product that allows us to monitor and manage patients remotely while they use our novel medical device at-home. The "plan - design - build" approach has worked well and saved us time in the long-run by catching requirements and issues early.
Daniel GreenSensTrainI'm really pleased with how my app came out, it was exactly what I was looking for. The team at Scorchsoft are great at what they do and made the whole process as simple and easy as possible. Being someone who is not very tech savvy the set up and back end operations were done in a great easy to use manner even for myself which makes using my app stress free. Thanks to all the team!
Ruben CarrollMosaic MasterpiecesThe new Flourish Education website has already removed a lot of manual processes, freeing up both schools, candidates and internal employees time. We are delighted with the look and feel which is clean, professional and more engaging. We are also pleased with the decision to have an HD video background on the homepage, and building immediate trust with our clients by giving them a taste of what it looks like in the Flourish Education offices.
James HancocksMarketing Manager, Flourish Education I can't believe how quickly we started to see results with this project. Scorchsoft provided us with graphic-designed mockups of how the app would look once built, and we were able to sell the product for use by our first customer before the product was finished. Since launching in March, we have secured a major television network as a client who now uses Image Approvals to manage the talent approval process for their productions.
