Assignment Task
Case study
Best Media Solutions is a marketing and web development business based in Melbourne, Australia. From idea to design, development and marketing, we achieve results for our clients and grow their business. We have ventured into the web service industry to offer our superior and unique services to small businesses and organisations. Our experience and expertise in web sales and e-commerce give us the backing to provide solutions that are currently lacking in the market. There is an all-time high demand for web development and marketing for small businesses with signs of rising further. Interestingly, few web developers have taken advantage of this opportunity, leaving the industry with no dominant provider. The high costs of the projects and the focus on more prominent companies and organisations could be the contributing factor as to why this market remains untapped. We have a system that will reduce the project costs dramatically, giving us the opportunity to offer quality services at reduced prices.
