Designing websites since 2006in Swindon, Wiltshire
As a digital agency specializing in web design, development, and digital marketing, we at O’Brien Media understand that maintaining your customers’ trust and loyalty is crucial when transitioning to a new venture. That’s why, when acquiring web design businesses or customers, we strive to maintain the same pricing for their services as much as possible.
We know that pricing is an important factor for your customers, and we want to ensure that they continue to receive the same high-quality services at a fair price. We work closely with you to understand your pricing structure and ensure that we can continue to offer your customers the same value.
Our goal is to make the transition as smooth as possible for both you and your customers, with minimal disruption to their services or pricing. By partnering with us, you can rest assured that your customers will continue to receive the same level of service and pricing they are accustomed to, while you focus on your next venture.
We believe that maintaining transparency and open communication throughout the acquisition process is key to ensuring that your customers remain happy and satisfied. We are committed to working with you every step of the way to achieve this goal.
We’ve completed website hosting and maintenance acquisitions from SOKP Media in Swindon and Webexie.com in Birmingham, and before that, we acquired SEO clients from Bright Web Solutions in East London.
Initial Assessment: Our team will conduct a thorough assessment of your website design and support and hosting customers to determine the scope and complexity of the migration.
Migration Planning: We will develop a detailed migration plan that outlines the steps required to transfer your customers to our hosting platform. This plan will include timelines, resource requirements, and contingency plans.
Communication Plan: We will develop a communication plan to keep your customers informed of the migration process and minimize any disruption to their services.
Testing and Validation: We will perform rigorous testing and validation of the migration process to ensure that your customers’ websites are fully functional and error-free.
Migration Execution: We will execute the migration plan in a phased approach to minimize disruption to your customers’ services. We will closely monitor the migration process to ensure that it is completed on time and within budget.
Post-Migration Support: We will provide ongoing support to your customers to ensure that they are fully satisfied with our hosting services and continue to receive the highest level of support.
Your contact for business development and acquisitions is...
Based in our Old Town, Swindon, office, Chris oversees all website design and website development projects as well as ensuring our customers receive an excellent level of support.
Our acquisition service is designed for freelance web designers, sole traders, and small web design agencies who are looking to step away from client work. Whether you are retiring, moving into full-time employment, dealing with a change in personal circumstances, or simply ready for something new, we can help you transition your client base to a team that will look after them properly.
Just get in touch. You can call Chris on 01793 239239, email [email protected], or use the contact form on this page. There is no obligation and no pressure. We will have an informal chat about your situation, your clients, and what you are looking for, and take it from there.
We are primarily interested in WordPress-based client portfolios, but we have experience working with sites built on other platforms too. We look at the number of clients, the types of websites involved, the hosting arrangements in place, and the level of ongoing support those clients currently receive. There is no minimum or maximum number of clients required.
We work hard to maintain the same pricing your clients are used to wherever possible. During our initial discussions, we review your current pricing structure and aim to keep things consistent so there is no unwelcome surprise for your customers.
We handle everything. That includes a full technical assessment of each website, a detailed migration plan, communication with your clients, testing and validation of every site on our hosting platform, and ongoing post-migration support. You do not need to do the technical work yourself.
No. We work with web designers and small agencies across the UK. Most of our initial conversations happen over Teams or video call, and the migration process can be managed entirely remotely. If you would prefer a face-to-face meeting, you are welcome to visit our office in Old Town, Swindon.
After an acquisition, revenue from the acquired client base is shared between O'Brien Media and the original business owner for a number of years. This covers both existing revenue and any new revenue generated from those clients. The specific terms are agreed on a case-by-case basis during our discussions.
That is absolutely fine. We are happy to talk to designers with client bases of any size. Whether you have five websites or fifty, the same careful process applies.
We treat every client as an individual. If a client decides they want to move on, we respect that completely. Our goal is to earn their trust through excellent service, not to lock anyone into something they are not happy with.
Yes. If you would prefer to introduce individual clients to us rather than transferring your entire portfolio, we are happy to work on that basis too. We also have a Refer a Friend programme that rewards you for successful introductions.
