Creative-i-Design started out as PC's Design, the brainchild of company founder Philip Cave. With the growth of the business, the company was re-branded as Creative-i-Design in early 2008.
Back in 2000, Philip needed a website and set about creating his own. He discovered a flair for both graphic design and coding, and PC's Design was born.
Colleagues began asking Philip to build sites for them and he rapidly gained a reputation for providing effective, professional websites. With a commercial, rather than a technical background, Philip never talks technology with his clients: it's a frighteningly dull subject, and his clients are almost always business people, so they're looking for a business solution to a business problem.
As the business grew, Philip began to take on external project workers. This carries potential risks, so he introduced top-down project management & quality control, and ensured that he only employed specialists who could offer long-term client continuity.
The company has operated an ethical policy from the start: 10% of business revenue is tithed to registered charities and the company gives a 10% discount to fundraising and voluntary bodies and organisations registered with The Charity Commission.
Creative-i-Design's philosophy is "To deliver professional, creative, easy-to-use websites which fit the client's needs and budget and deliver a return on investment".
