British GCC Network
The British GCC Network needed a platform where businesses could be listed, discovered and managed, with a full custom admin backend to oversee the entire directory.
The Challenge
The organisation needed a professional digital platform where businesses operating between the UK and the Gulf could list themselves, be found by others, and manage their own presence, all underpinned by a robust admin system.
No directory platform
There was no existing system for businesses to create and manage their own listings within the network.
Content management
The organisation needed to be able to manage the directory, approve listings and update content without relying on a developer.
Professional presentation
The platform needed to reflect the professional standing of the network and the businesses it represented.
The Transformation
How we upgraded their business.
The Starting Point
- No digital directory for member businesses
- No self-service listing capability for businesses
- No admin tools to manage the network
- No professional digital presence for the organisation
What We Built
- Custom PHP Business Directory
A bespoke directory platform where businesses can create, manage and update their own listings.
- Custom CMS
A content management system built specifically for the organisation to manage the directory and wider site content.
- Full Admin Backend
A comprehensive admin interface for managing listings, users and all directory content.
Our Solution
We built a custom PHP platform combining a business directory with a full content management system. Businesses can add and manage their own listings, visitors can browse and filter the directory, and the organisation manages everything through a custom admin backend.
