Simon Honeywood, founder and managing director, said: “The last 12 months have been fantastic for the business as we continue to support our many clients across the globe. I still have to pinch myself about how far we have come in 20 years from when I started out as a freelancer in the industry. This really is credit to the fantastic team we have at Readysalted, their expertise and commitment to delivering outstanding client care.
“We really take the time to understand the businesses we work with, what their customers need when they visit a website, and how they behave online. We also work with clients on digital transformation, which is something that can save people hours and hours of time and completely change the way they work – it really is transformative.
“We have an incredibly varied client base, from medical scientists to manufacturers, through to the education sector and beyond. Essentially, we can make a piece of software you can run an entire company with, which is bespoke to the needs of each client.
“2023 was a great year as we celebrated our 20th anniversary, employed three new members of staff, had a brand refresh and grew the business by 30%. But we are not stopping there and this year we have plans to take things even further recruiting more developers and designers, opening our London office and working with more clients across the capital and Europe - as well as the North East of course.
“It’s an exciting time as we also set ourselves the target of hitting the half million mark by 2025 and £1m by 2028. We have come a long way in the last 20 years, but at the core we’re still very much the same Readysalted team, with the same values at our core.â€
