Discovery

- Landing page to have simple and easy to use navigation – four boxes with four choices

- Boxes need to look like they fit the website

- Each box to contain:

- Title

- 4-5 bullet points

- Download button

>links to PDF

- Try this analysis

>links to sub page

Designed by Michael

I would like to include compelling bullet points and call to action on 4 boxes – new visitors to site only view two pages – I want to compel them to click and feel that just the title – ‘benchmarking’ is not enough


Benchmarking

Track Import/ExportOpportunity Discovery

- It is important that I am able to edit/amend the text in these boxes either in the back end editor or in the online editor

Contract Negotiation

Price Risk Management

• Manage your price risk more effectively• Gain exposure to spot prices, with the safety net of contracts, whilst reducing spot market volatility• Prevent margin erosion on fixed price contracts • Gain better supplier/customer relationships

Why PDF? What will it look like?

-The PDF will open in a new internet window using acrobat reader

- PDF’s are easy to print, save, and share

- PDF’s can be linked internally (i.e. table of contents to help navigate) and also with clear call to actions

- More space on an A4 PDF to display than on webpage

-Easier to update a PDF, and to add new ones as needed

- More freedom with design

- Mik is coming up with a template which will look professional, branded, and easy to navigate

- After a discussion with Mik if you are on a page viewing a tutorial/guide, then you are not able to simultaneously do the suggested guide

- Whereas if the PDF opens in a different window or is printed out, then the user can simultaneously perform the suggestions in the guide
