Challenge

Thinkspace initially approached us through Karley Cunningham of Big Bold Brand. Karley had worked with Thinkspace to design the site, and it was then our job to build the website to match those designs as closely as possible. The client needed a competent team who could realize those designs precisely — down to the pixel.

An additional challenge for us with this client was that Thinkspace had been operating for a number of years under a different name — Graham Hoffart Mathiasen Architects. Their existing website was optimized to show up in search results for that name, and so we also had to consider how to rebrand and rebuild their site without losing the existing search rankings.

Solution

Initially, Graham Hoffart Mathiasen rebranded as “Think-Space,” and so we rebuilt the website to match that domain, and to fit the exact specifications of Karley’s design. We were careful to transfer all of the SEO and Google indexing, and maintained the firm’s ranking across that initial rebrand, and again across the subsequent rebrand to Thinkspace.

Results

Two subsequent changes of domains presented some technical challenges, but in the end the rebrand was a success and we were able to transfer the domain smoothly while maintaining traffic. A Google search for Graham Hoffart Mathiasen or GHMA Architects now brings up Thinkspace.ca as the first result.

Kevin and his team are fantastic. We’ve been working with them for some time now. They’ve built out some awesome landing pages for us that have been able to generate some solid conversions via our SEO. Big thanks to Kevin and his team for making digital marketing, something we know very little about it, a much easier process than I had initially imagined it would be :)

After 15+ years of dealing with a national firm, we moved to Kevin at Yardstick Services for our website redesign and digital marketing campaign. What a refreshing change…we received professional guidance and expertise from their team and they made the migration process seamless. After 3 years, we continue to receive excellent and timely service. They are a pleasure to deal with and I highly recommend them.

Our company, International Yacht Training Worldwide, has worked with Yardstick for over a decade and are more than satisfied with the design of our website, collaboration when designing, and, of course, their support over the years. Owner, Kevin McLeod, and all of the Yardstick team are there to offer assistance when the need arises. Yardstick has created a second website for a new division of our company, Global Yacht Club, which is in an infancy stage. Their design and support teams are amazing and I highly recommend their services!
