Sheppertones website
15 Sep 08
Category › Digital Marketing, Work
The Sheppertones are an up and coming band. They approached us to design and develop a website that would give them a strong web presence to help them gain wider exposure and keep their current fans up to date with their latest news, gigs, photos, videos and music.
To address their requirements, we used a content management system to enable the band to totally control the content of the website. We also incorporated an RSS feed and email subscription service to help fans easily keep updated.

What the band say about their website:
“Marketing Design produced an extremely innovative and professional looking website for our band with minimal turnaround. The level of service was highly impressive, our brief was somewhat ambiguous but they managed to visualise and turn our ideas into something tangible. It was also extremely reassuring to know that once the website was up and running we could count on their continued support.”
Aug 09 update: The band have been given a slot at the Greenbelt Festival after the organisers visited their website.
Oct 09 update: The band’s new EP (Eddie’s Hairdo) is now on iTunes. We carried out an email marketing campaign to promote this to their current fan base and are pleased to say they’ve been receiving great reviews on iTunes.
