Return on Investment
Values delivered to Global Mediator
Previously Global Mediator used another CMS for their corporate site, which was a complicated affair. The site got hacked; it was slow to load and update, making new landing pages a nightmare. As part of Global Mediators’ further growth, they needed to support their sales team with the ability to do much more inbound marketing. Essentially, they needed to reorganize their Go-To-Market strategy, but their website was stuck in the past.
With the new platform, Global Mediator can now iterate much faster, enabling the marketing team to shorten the turnaround time. Not only does the new site load instantly, but it also offers a much-improved user interface for presenting Global Mediator Services, Products, and overall brand – in a secure way!

We focused on providing the best user experience, including page loading speed and an intuitive website menu. In terms of Global Mediators’ internal operations, we needed a streamlined admin panel and a flexible system to deliver the visual part just the way they needed. And a fast-responding one to cut down on the turn-around time.

Global Mediator chose a simplified Slize Commerce Architecture to power their new Headless corporate website. With pre-built modules, it allowed Global Mediator to build unique pages quickly.
As core CMS, we chose Strapi Headless CMS which is fully customizable and developer-first. This allowed us to build and customize a CMS that works for Marketing enabling them to iterate new ideas quickly.
To achieve our visual ambitions for an intuitive and modern User-Interface, we selected ReactJS in combination with NextJS. This enables us to build not only reusable components but also generate static pages for ultra-fast page-load, basically without waiting time for the user.
