Launch of EverEnglish.com
E-creation provided Ever English with an elegantly designed full e-commerce website, www.EverEnglish.com, to sell "high quality, essentially English products" on the web. The collaboration with E-creation was supported by Thames Valley Business Link.
The first series of products for Ever English is a trio of watercolours by Gordon King entitled "The Darcy Bussel Collection". The prints feature Darcy in rehearsal and on the stage with all the prints signed by both Darcy and Gordon. Founder of Ever English, Neil Buckley, is aiming to donate £200,000 to the Alzheimer's Society from the sale of the prints. Mr. Buckley says "the involvement of Business Link has been crucial to the success of this project. The service provides a great opportunity for local businesses to take advantage of the Internet, and the
benefits that can be gained from it."

The site has been developed using Microsoft ASP technology, Microsoft's latest initiative for improving the quality of content on the Internet. E-creation is basing all of its current development activities on ASP in order to deliver "hyper-intelligent" websites with credit-card processing, search engine promotion and super-fast streaming. Paul Barrass of E-creation and project manager for Ever English said "E-creation has delivered a secure and robust e-commerce application that has enabled Ever English to fulfill its business objectives of being an Internet based organisation." Mr. Buckley says "it is not only the quality of service but the level of support that E-creation provides which is impressive. E-creation have not only delivered the goods, they have provided a long term service with a level of flexibility within the application that is crucial for a new business starting up."
E-creation's director, Jan-Erik Paul hopes that the success of Ever English will encourage other local businesses to adopt an e-business strategy. "As a member of the Register of Accredited Service Providers, Business Link can make referrals on behalf of E-creation to companies looking to use the latest technology to their advantage."
Any company wishing to take advantage of this service must be in the Thames Valley Business Link area and employ fewer than 250 people. Business Link may also consider providing an 'Advisory and Consultancy Award' that can cover up to one third of the costs of a project with a funding limit of £10,000.
