How we worked
Across the client's teams as the holistic owner of the digital presence, from before the brand had a name.
01 · The problem

Aegex needed more than a website. It needed someone to own the digital presence of a brand that did not exist yet.

Our relationship predates the Aegex brand. We had supported its predecessor, Aero Wireless, and that trust carried into the new organisation.

Launching as a global brand meant coordinating across teams, establishing coherent brand and design guidelines, controlling content, and building a foundation that generated leads rather than impressions.

The brand experience — one system across site, campaigns and CRM

We worked as a partner across website, design, content, marketing and lead generation, so the brand stayed coherent everywhere at once.

We established the digital foundation for the brand: design guidelines, the website experience, landing pages, lead-capture mechanisms, advertising support, and automated workflows connecting website activity to the CRM.

Phase 01Brand and design guidelinesA coherent system, agreed once, applied across every channel and team.
Phase 02Website and landing pagesThe brand experience plus the campaign surfaces that had to convert.
Phase 03Lead capture and CRMAutomated workflows connecting website activity to the CRM, so marketing spend could be traced.
Phase 04Platform changeA platform review of the original WordPress implementation led us to move the site to ExpressionEngine.
The trade-off we named up front
Moving off WordPress meant leaving the familiar technology and retraining the client's team. We evaluated the business need — security, performance, maintenance — made the change, then ran the training.

Thomas Ventulett
CEO, Aegex Technologies

“We launched a global brand and a lead engine at the same time, with one team accountable for both. When the platform had to change, nothing about the brand had to be renegotiated.”

Website activity, connected to the CRM — the lead path end to end

The relationship is the outcome. It started before the brand and has carried through a platform change.

The digital foundation now covers design guidelines, the website experience, landing pages, lead capture, advertising support and the automated workflows behind them. The client's team operates the platform themselves, on training we provided.

We still run the platform. They run the go-to-market.
