Clients Needs

Sri Lanka Foundation promotes the Sri Lankan culture globally through numerous outreach programs. Their biannual Awards Ceremony acknowledges members of their community with a prestigious award for their extraordinary accomplishments. The non-profit also hosts a yearly food and music festival called Sri Lanka Day, as well as other events where their Academy of Performing Arts dancers perform. They asked us to create a digital platform that allowed them to engage with their audience online and could be resourceful for Sri Lankans living all over the world. We worked closely with this organization to create a new brand that aimed to accomplish their goals.

UX/UI

Creating an easy-to-use user experience was essential because of the large amount of information required to be shared. Most of their users belonged to a non-technical demographic, thereby, it was our primary focus to develop a smooth UI/UX.

Sri Lanka Foundation wanted to become one of the primary sources of information & entertainment for their community. Which has now been accomplished in main due to the site as well as our social media marketing efforts mentioned further below.

The site offers resources like Sri Lankan news, events, galleries, directories, and more.

In addition, we built a user friendly Wordpress back-end to give the client the ability to update any part of their website with ease.

Sri Lanka Foundation Events

As the Sri Lanka Foundation holds several events throughout the year, they wanted a separate page for this. We then created a page covering all the information regarding an event including the ability to fill out submission forms, so users could share their preferences, comments, and experiences about any Sri Lankan event.

We custom built a system on this page that allowed guests to choose the section, seats, and number of tickets they wanted to purchase. All while automatically creating tickets with scannable codes in the background, that can then be used to verify guest admittance on the day of the event.

No stone was left unturned & our team wanted to cater to the success of their event every step of the way!

We did the following:

Along with implementing SEO strategies, we created campaigns for online marketing that included social media profile creation with management and weekly email marketing. Social media was essential to its brand since it created a presence that helped increase followers and engagement. The email marketing campaigns also focused on keeping their audience updated with upcoming events & gave them quick access to needed information such as where to purchase tickets or where to park on the day of the event.
