Company Rescue: From Ageing Website to Lightning-Fast, Future-Proof Insolvency Platform

Project Type: Web Design and Brand Refresh

Sector: Professional Services / Insolvency Consultancy

The Client

Company Rescue had built its reputation as a go-to resource for directors navigating insolvency, but after years of consistent performance, its website was starting to show its age in ways the business could no longer ignore.

Project Overview:

The Redesign That Gave a Leading Insolvency Consultancy a Website as Dependable as Its Reputation

1 / 4

The Challenge

Refresh an established brand and rebuild a complex, content-rich website without sacrificing the SEO authority built up over years of consistent performance.

2 / 4

The Solution

A brand refresh, custom illustration system, and a ground-up rebuild on a lightning-fast, user-friendly WordPress platform.

3 / 4

The Milestone

Delivering a site twice as fast as its predecessor, with a flexible CMS that gave Company Rescue’s marketing team full control over a several-hundred-page website.

4 / 4

The Impact

A refreshed brand, a faster and more capable website, and a platform built to remain one of the leading online resources for directors of insolvent companies.

What Was at Stake?

A Market-Leading Insolvency Consultancy With a Website That Had Fallen Behind

The Problem

Company Rescue needed a website and visual identity that reflected where the business was now, not where it had been several years ago.

The Risk

For a business whose website is one of its primary sources of new enquiries, speed, search visibility, and user experience are not optional.

The Stakes

The redesign had to evolve the brand, modernise the experience, and improve performance, all without dismantling what was already working.

Company Rescue needed a faster, fresher website that could be handed to an in-house team and trusted to keep performing.
