Many businesses spend a lot of money creating websites which are useless in terms of sales - they cannot be found or indexed by the search engines, they don't attract any traffic, they hardly have any worth-while content or they are impossible to maintain.
How are we different?
Unlike many other web designers, we always begin with the end in mind. What is your website trying to achieve? Whom is it trying to attract? Who is it competing against? We don't think about the design, until we are sure we understood your business and your target audience; until we understand who your competitors are and what makes you stand out from the crowd.
We aim to produce esthetically pleasing websites which work; that is, convey the right message, don't cost an arm and a leg, are easy to update, and most important, they generate leads for your business rather than just sit there, collecting dust.
When it comes to the actual design, we tend to stay away from the bells and whistles, unless you are an art gallery, a graphic designer or a web-programmer trying to show off your skills. We always keep the search engine optimization in mind when designing your website and are therefore reluctant to include elements which can effect your website optimization or ranking. Good content, a few well-placed graphics, maybe a video or a blog, this is what most websites need to achieve success (apart of course from some consistent online and off-line promotion).

Management
Joanna Dabrowska (MBA) - Managing Director
Joanna combines strong entrepreneurial vision with a solid background in business and technology. She holds a post-graduate business qualification (Executive MBA) from Institut Francais de Gestion and several IT and sales & marketing qualifications.
Joanna has 25+ years of Small Business Management, Management Consulting and Software Development experience, gained in South Africa, Poland, Canada and Ireland, in a variety of business sectors. She worked for a Tier 1 Management Consulting Company, Bearing Point and was one of the early experts in Desktop Publishing, lecturing on this subject at Birnam Business College in South Africa. She is currently completing a Diploma in Internet Marketing at Dublin Business School.
Her interest in Web Design and Internet Marketing was sparked by the sheer frustration of her own web design experience. When looking to create her new company website, she realised that she had basically two choices - either to use a Web Designer and have a pretty but not very functional website; or to use a Web Programmer and settle for a website which was functional, but ugly. The third option was to use a full-service Web Design Agency, but their fees were well out of reach for an average small business owner.
She has since expanded the offering of Getahead Consulting to include affordable web design, search engine optimization and internet marketing services, tailor-made for the small business. These services are marketed under the name - "Your Name On The Web".
In her spare time Joanna loves to travel to exotic locations, plays bridge and sweats out at the local gym.
Mark Davenport - Technical Director
Mark has been involved in software development and small business management since the early 80's. His area of expertise includes printing and publishing, marketing, advertising, web design, PHP & HTML programming and "technical" search engine optimization.
Mark established a successful online business directory in Falkirk/Scotland and publishes local advertising booklets, which are distributed to over 50 000 households in Falkirk area. He has also been actively involved in researching effectiveness of various advertising media to promote small businesses and is currently studying towards Google Webanalytics Professional Qualification.
Mark is a dedicated gadget man (his PC looks like a cockpit, with 4 screens wrapped around him, I am not kidding). He can usually find a solution to most technical problems, so he is in a really high demand. In fact, we usually lock him in the office and pass pizzas through a narrow gap under his door. We guard him with our lives, and make sure that someone watches over him whenever he crosses the road.
In his spare time Mark plays squash, travels to exotic destinations, scuba dives, sails and canoes.
