Clients in Westmeath

Businesses we have worked with

Shown by name with the client's permission.

Mattress and bed retailerThe Sleep Shop

The problem. The store is a large mattress and pillow showroom on the Dublin Road in Athlone, known for strong in-person consultation. Its online store did not match that reputation.

What we advised. The plan was to lift the online side to the level of the showroom. A faster, specialist theme was advised to improve mobile speed and the buying flow, along with AI lifestyle imagery to show products in real settings.

Areas covered. E-commerce, Website, Marketing and content, Staff training and adoption, AI automation

The Shed Holistics logoPerformance and mental coachingThe Shed Holistics

The problem. The coaching ran on manual admin and in person delivery. A single booking took several messages back and forth, session notes were handwritten and filed on paper, and payments were not linked to any client record.

What we advised. We advised on a practice management system to bring booking, notes and invoicing together, an online platform to sell programmes, and a single home for the teaching material, supported by an AI assisted website. This moves session records into a secure digital system and gives the business a way to scale past one to one sessions.

Areas covered. Booking and scheduling, E-commerce, CRM and customer records, Website, AI automation
