Let’s talk

Websites for manufacturers that turn searches into quote requests.

Most manufacturers win work through quotes and relationships, and the website is where a new buyer checks you out first. We build sites that show what you make, what you can do and how to ask for a quote, in the words buyers search with.

Is this you?

A good fit if

  • You make things in the UK and sell to other businesses.
  • Your processes, machinery or accreditations are buried or missing online.
  • Quote requests arrive by phone or email with half the details missing.

Probably not, if

  • You only sell through distributors and never take a direct enquiry.

What we do.

We built SourceBritain, our own service that matches buyers with the UK manufacturers who make what they need. Building it meant learning how buyers describe a job, how manufacturers describe what they can do, and how often the two never meet. Your website should close that gap.

  1. 01

    Capabilities buyers can search

    Pages for your processes, materials and the sectors you serve, written in the words a buyer types, not the words on the factory floor.

  2. 02

    Proof up front

    Accreditations, examples of parts and projects, and who you already supply, where a buyer looks for them.

  3. 03

    A quote form that collects the spec

    Quantities, materials, drawings and timescales, asked for up front, so you can price without chasing.

  4. 04

    Plain enough for a buyer, exact enough for an engineer

    We interview whoever knows the process best, write it up and check every detail with you before launch.

The work. Before, after, and what changed.

Real businesses and their real sites. No results are shown until they are measured and agreed.

Our own venture · UK manufacturing sourcing

The brief

SourceBritain finds the UK manufacturers that make what you need. The first version worked, but looked generic and early stage: a white template, a sample card with placeholder lines, stock-style photos. It needed to look like a service a buyer would trust with a real job.

What we changed

  • IdentityA new mark, a forest, cream and mustard palette, and three typefaces with a job each.
  • Design systemOne set of tokens, page shells and contrast rules, checked by tests, for every surface.
  • Sourcing studioSay what you need in your own words; it reads it once, then asks only what's missing.
  • Supplier discoveryReal matches with reasons, a shortlist and comparison, and nobody contacted until you choose who sees it.
  • Directory and placesAn index of who makes what, location pages drawn as places, and an atlas of Britain built from real listings.
  • MigrationEvery public page, the guides and the buyer, supplier and admin portals moved onto the new system and into production.

The mark

Two brackets, the requirement and the capability, and the square they make together.

Ways to start.

Business website

The website should be winning you work, and it isn't.

  • Up to 12 pages, planned from how your buyers search
  • Copy written with you
  • Enquiry and quote journeys
  • Local or sector search, conversion tracking

4 to 6 weeks

Growth partnership

You want someone who builds, measures and improves, every week.

  • One working day a week on your business
  • A 90-day plan we agree with you
  • A written update every week
  • A monthly review of what worked

90 days, then monthly

Every job is a fixed scope agreed before work starts. Tell us about yours and we will say which fits.

How it works.

  1. 01

    Tell us the job

    A short guided enquiry. A real person replies within two working days.

  2. 02

    A short call

    We look at what you have and say what we would do first.

  3. 03

    A fixed scope

    What is included, what is not and when, agreed before any work starts.

  4. 04

    Build, review, launch

    You review at each stage. Fixes are included for two weeks after launch.

Questions people ask.

Can you handle technical content?

Yes. We interview whoever knows the process best and turn it into pages a buyer can follow, then check every detail with you before anything goes live.

Can buyers send drawings through the site?

Yes. The quote form can take the details you need to price a job, and we agree with you what to ask for and what to leave to the follow-up.

We have no photos of the factory. Is that a problem?

Not to start. We work with what you have and tell you which pages would gain most from better pictures.

How long does it take?

Four to six weeks for a full business website of up to twelve pages, most of it spent getting the capability pages right.
