Bulmers: Building a socially-led website
social we are
-
Bulmers didn't want a bog standard website
social we are
-
It wanted a site that would reflect its personality, showcasing its colourful ciders,
and the rich history behind the brand
social we are
-
With a clean, minimal style to reflect the modern audience
of young adults that Bulmers attracts
social we are
-
We decided to take a social approach
social we are
-
Being colourful is an important part of Bulmers brand identity, with its Live Colourful ethos
social we are
-
So we knew this would play a huge part in the sites design
social we are
-
In the months before launch, we asked Bulmers social community to share their #livecolourful pictures

This gave us a huge bank of UGC, as well as a continuing pipeline of new content

-
We focused heavily on the attitude of the brand, with the blog and campaign pages front and centre

-
Reflecting the social inspiration, pages were designed to live not just on the site, but also on platforms like Facebook & YouTube
-
Were proud of this innovative site
social we are
-
It has an underlying mobile backbone
social we are
-
It is easily updateable and adaptable, based on a modular front-end
and structured information layout
social we are
-
It works flexibly in conjunction with major social media platforms, whilst still maintaining the
creative integrity of a beautifully designed website
social we are
-
The modular UX design ensures that this site will be future proof for a very long time
social we are
-
Putting social thinking at the heart of its website has given Bulmers a new way to engage with its audience
social we are
-
The new site is a great representation of our #LiveColourful ethos. It brings together all the colourful social moments that our consumers are already
sharing in one place - we hope our fans enjoy exploring the website as much as we do.
