An online project management and recruitment tool for the TV industry.
In an industry where staff are primarily freelancers and by the very nature of the job unable to take calls during work time, it can be difficult to locate and pull together an experienced team for a new project. Availability TV launched to offer high visibility and access to the key players out there looking for experienced freelancers. The online portal offers Directors/Producers a subscription service to find freelance staff such as sound men, runners etc, see when they're available, contact them 24/7 and book their services at the touch of a button. Employers can even read reviews of prospective freelancers and access their CV's online to ensure they're contacting the best person for their job.
Once a Director/Producer has pulled together their preferred team, they can bulk email/sms the team to offer their proposition and salary etc and the system collates the yes/no/maybe answers from candidates in both email and sms format and if appropriate blocks out the time in the candidates calendars so as to avoid double bookings.

Villa rental website with 128 exclusive properties overseas.
In 2009, I moved my business from a company in India, and engaged Impact Technology to maintain and develop my vacation rental website. Since then the website has undergone many large changes from a complete redesign, to simplifying booking functionality and enhancing usability features. There have also been many back end changes, simplifying key administration tasks, including the creation of a variety of complex reporting and financial functions.
More recently we have been focused on social aspects and enhancing the delivery of guest services to our customers before arrival and during their stay. Impact have developed bespoke forums for us so that guests can ask questions of other guests prior to booking, and integrated live chat software to the website to support pre-sales. We are about to launch a bespoke private messaging system that will allow guests to communicate, both with each other and key members of staff, before, during and after their visit.
I have found Impact’s input into all of these changes invaluable. Andy will always find the most efficient and budget conscious solution to a problem, and Jo has often been a sounding board for looking at things from the customers perspective. Thus far it’s been a mutually beneficial relationship and I am confident it will continue to be so.
