PROJECT DETAIL
Client Back Story
A former Member of Parliament (1987–1996) and Member and the Executive Council of New Zealand, Ross Meurant was Under Secretary (junior minister) Agriculture & Forestry; Cabinet Committee Industry & Commerce & Chair Select Committee Fisheries.
Prior to entering parliament he was a commissioned officer in the NZ police. Subsequently, he owned equestrian facilities; was elected to local government as a councillor; consulted to several major fishing companies, was engaged by parliamentary services as adviser to Rt. Hon Winston Peters and emerged as a key figure in the Scampi Affair, which falsely alleged political corruption.
From 2004 he has lived and worked in Zimbabwe, Russia, Czech Republic and the Balkans. From 2007 he extended his business to Morocco, Syria and U.A.E.
In 2016 Ross was appointed Honorary Consul for the Kingdom of Morocco (see MOROCCAN CONSULATE)
The Brief
For many years Ross has struggled with designers and web developers who did not understand his business interests and therefore not able to support him fully in his efforts to communicate this effectively online.
His needs were simple - create an uncluttered website, simple to navigate and easy for him to manage as well as others to use - particularly important as he generates international interest to his site.
He was also keen to start blogging and we initiated a simple system for him to be able to do this on his frequent business trips around the world.
The Solution
We delivered on his brief of creating a smart device responsive website. We provided Ross with training on the content management system specifically for blogging.
Technical support for Ross is high on his agenda and provide him with best advice and action as required. Please see testimonial below.
