After using the Idea Maker website development process to fully understand the needs and wants of the Open Acts bespoke website development project, we began work on their website that would help promoters and musicians find each other.
Idea Maker’s professional web development team began work on the bespoke website project using Linux, Nginx, Django, Gunicorn, React, JavaScript, and JQuery. We chose this build for their custom website development project because we wanted to create a user friendly, fast-loading website for their clients.
The bespoke website developed by Idea Maker allowed for both artist and promoter profile creation. When promoters, venue owners, or booking agents logged in to the website, they would be able to search for local acts in their area by using their zip code.
With Idea Maker’s help, the client’s dreams were made into a reality.
Venue owners, booking agents, and promoters using this bespoke website are able to create a profile for their businesses and log in. Using zip codes they can find a local artist for their concerts or events.
Idea Maker created, as part of this bespoke website project, an artist portal to help locally renowned artists to advertise their presence to local promoters. In this portal’s profile section, artists have the opportunity to give details about their musical genre and performance style. These profiles are searchable by zip code for those promoters linked to the website.
Client Success Stories
Idea Maker has done an amazing job of delivering and responding to our needs.
The team was very responsive and easy to work with. They are professional, talented, and experienced team. They were able to meet all our requirements.
Idea Maker is distinguished for their personalized collaboration and white glove services. The team is dependable and reliable, sticking to the project's plan, offering feedback, and pushing back on the right things.
The way they understand the requirements we present to them is fairly solid. Both in terms of bringing their own interpretation in nailing the requirements and their design sense. By the time we launched, I had gotten significantly more value from our collaboration than what we had discussed in the original specs.
This is a boutique development firm where the Founder is directly involved with the project and the primary contact. This is unlike many development firms where you are simply handed off to developers that are not stakeholders. This is an important distinction that results in much better project accountability.
I have never had a site like this built before. I felt that Idea Maker and Tom had built numerous sites like this, and they were pros.
Idea Maker's portfolio is what drew us in. Their design style was in alignment with what we were after. We had initial consultations with 3 companies that we had narrowed it down to. Once we had our initial meeting with Tom at Idea Maker we knew we had the right choice to make. Their communication style works well for us.
Their customer service is excellent — they’re incredibly accessible and available, which I appreciate. Furthermore, they have enough experience and bandwidth to fulfill all my needs. They’re one of the best vendors I’ve worked with.
