The Challenge

Horizon Services needed to move away from a restrictive proprietary CMS, and onto an opensource platform that could offer greater customization. The client had already settled on WordPress as a platform, but they had an extraordinary amount of content to move to the new platform, and a short amount of time to do it in.

On Ramp

Moving the content over from the old cms was no small task. There was no interoperability between the existing cms and WordPress, so we needed to roll out our own. Sometimes the old ways are best. We created a custom web scraper, and traversed the client's existing site, and created the new WordPress structure programmatically, saving countless hours of work.

Maintaining Presence

Horizon Services is a growing a vibrant leader in the home service industry. After the new site was launched and deployed, they had plans to constantly improve their marketing presence. We continued to work with Horizon over the ensuing months post launch, adding features and content. We also helped fold additional websites into the Horizon brand, standardizing them on WordPress.

Evolving Connections

When working on a long-term engagement, communication is absolutely critical. During our engagement, we've created and maintained several communication channels, each with their own purpose and pace. In our experience, we've found good success in arranging communication this way: Kaban boards for long term goals, ticketing for present tasks, and real-time messaging for day-to-day operations.

    • Working with Curious Minds has been a real pleasure! When we maintained our own WordPress site, we were always blocked by lack of internal resources. Outsourcing everything to Curious Minds was a great decision. Shannon is very responsive and his work always passes the very high technical standards of our team. We trust them completely with our company's blog.
