A brand-new digital storefront, built from scratch with the best tools available

Mandala Partners, an economic, policy and regulatory consultancy, needed a dynamic, user-friendly and professional website to strengthen their brand and enhance their communication with clients. They sought a unique, customised website that would stand out in their field.

03 THE WORK

Chapter by chapter.

01

Fast Sites Get Found

A consultancy's website is its credibility in miniature, and speed is part of the argument. Faster pages rank higher, hold attention longer and convert more visitors into conversations.

We benchmarked the new Mandala Partners site with Google Lighthouse throughout the build, tuning it until performance, accessibility, SEO and best practices all scored deep in the green.

The Challenge

With no existing website, the project required a strategic approach right from the start.

Saigon Digital was entrusted with the responsibility to design and develop the entire website from scratch, keeping in mind Mandala’s unique business requirements, industry standards, and the need for a high-performing and visually compelling digital platform.

Questions about this project

We have no website at all. Where does that even start?

With positioning, not pixels. Mandala Partners started from a blank page, so the first work was deciding what the site had to prove to an economics, policy and regulatory audience. The design followed that, which is the only order that works.

Is a bespoke build justified for a consultancy?

When credibility is the product, yes. A consultancy’s website is its expertise in miniature, and a recognisable template quietly says the firm buys its thinking off the shelf too.

Can our team publish without a developer?

That was a requirement here. Sanity gives Mandala a flexible editing system their whole team uses, which matters for a firm whose value is published thinking that has to go out while it is still current.

Does website speed affect a professional services firm?

It affects being found and being believed. Faster pages rank higher, hold attention longer and convert more visitors into conversations. See web design & development.
