Client and operating context
Geo-Tek serves retail, corporate-branding and event clients with custom printed products. Customers increasingly wanted to design and order online, on their phones as well as desktops.
Challenge and baseline
- Several online design platforms had been tried, but none was robust or flexible enough.
- Customers found the tools complicated, and they worked poorly on phones.
- Internal systems were not ready for large digital workflows, which slowed order processing and updates.
Before launch the website had about 12,000 visitors a month and a customer satisfaction score of 4.2 out of 5.
Success criteria
- A design experience that is easy on every device.
- Seamless operation with Geo-Tek's existing systems.
- A platform that scales as the business grows.
Netbase's role and approach
Netbase JSC ran in-depth consultations on Geo-Tek's business model, customer expectations and operating goals before design began. During integration the team gave hands-on support, shared regular updates and clear timelines, and adjusted the plan as feedback arrived.
Implementation and deliverables
- A responsive e-commerce platform for online design and ordering.
- Design upload plus built-in customization tools.
- Integration with Geo-Tek's existing systems to minimize disruption.
- Training sessions and user documentation so the team can run the platform independently.
- Ongoing support after launch.

Lessons
A design platform only helps if staff can run it. Integration with existing systems, training and documentation were planned as deliverables, not afterthoughts.
