Bearplus

A brand story that moves people.

Bearplus is a website agency that turns branding into visual storytelling, and visual storytelling into a conversion journey.

We help people understand who you are, why your work matters, and what they should do next. Our award-winning websites use design, motion, and interaction to earn attention. Organic discovery and social sharing can bring people in. The website then needs to turn that interest into useful action.

For Nine Mile Trading, that means more than a stronger first impression. It means a clear route from curiosity to the right relationship.

01 / Commercial relationships

Understand. Trust. Get in touch.

Help asset managers and fund managers understand what Nine Mile does, see the value of its services, and contact the right team to discuss working together.

02 / Future talent

See the work. Meet the people. Want in.

Show university students the work, culture, and people that make Nine Mile an exciting place to build a career. Give that interest a clear next step.

The goal

Make the website a conversion funnel: bring the right people in, explain the business clearly, and guide them toward a service inquiry or a career opportunity.

Organic reach, social views, and conversion depend on the audience, launch plan, marketing and service quality. They are not guaranteed outcomes.

Scope

1. Number of pages

6 main pages (and templates for Insights articles page)

  • Home
  • Services
  • About us (including Our Culture)
  • Career
  • Insights
  • Contact us

2. Technology

a) Functionality

  • Built-in or embedded contact form on the website
  • Contact information from the website will be sent to the client's email
  • We can use either Sanity or Webflow as the website’s content management system. Both allow the client’s team to easily update content and in-depth article sections, while providing the security, speed, and flexibility a fast-growing company needs. The client can choose the platform that best fits their needs.
  • Supports integration with Google Analytics or Mixpanel and any other third-party utilities at the client's request.

b) User Experience

  • Brand identity applied consistently: Nine Mile color palette, updated typography, and custom branded icons carried through every page
  • Fully responsive: built for desktop and mobile from day one, not retrofitted
  • Fast load times: images compressed and resources optimised, which matters for people doing a first impression check on their phones

c) Technical SEO optimization

  • Semantic HTML structure, clean heading hierarchy (H1–H6), optimised meta titles, descriptions, and canonical URLs
  • All images get alt text

No SEO ranking is lost in the new website. We preserve the same URL structure as well as applying 301 forwarding rules to make sure no old URL is dead.

3. Website Content Writing

We will provide website copywriting as a guidance. This copywriting is not subject to be as a paid work and thus we will not receive feedback for the copywriting. You can improve and update it at will.

4. Photo Art direction

We will use photo stocks and/or AI generated images to showcase our art direction for photos. You can either hire a photographer to have photoshoot in our art direction. Or you can move on with our provided assets. In case of moving on with photo stocks, if it's a paid photo stock, you will need to buy for its license. We often use from Shutterstock or Getty images or istocks.

5. Not included

Additional page design, additional iteration round (more than 2 rounds), for these we will scope for extra work and will either charge on ad hoc rate or discuss after delivering the main scope.

Process and timeline

Nine steps, from the signed contract to launch. Design and development can overlap once the direction is approved. Each page gets its own timeline at the mid-wireframe stage.
