A look back at a project delivered by Quentosity. The work reflects the original brief and creative approach at the time, although the business and its digital platforms may have evolved since.

Project overview

About the project

The business

The Housesitting Company connects homeowners with background checked, vetted and insured house sitters.

The requirement

The client wanted a website and systems that ensured no lead was lost. Every enquiry needed to be tracked to its source, and the administration involved in payments, shortlisting and vetting needed to reduce.

What we were asked to deliver

Website development, mobile app development, Google Ads campaigns, email newsletters, social media management, graphic design, copywriting and a custom automated system covering payment reminders, shortlisting, vetting support and high-volume email. We later completed a homepage refresh.

What we created

What we created

A website where every lead is tracked

We built a website that records where each lead came from, so the client could see which channels were producing enquiries. A homepage refresh followed later as part of our continued support.

A custom automated system

We built a system that handles recurring administration: reminding people about payments, shortlisting applicants, assisting with the vetting process and sending thousands of emails a month.

Results and outcomes

What the client reported

The client reported strong turnover growth during the period described in the original project write-up. These are historical, client-reported figures.

Turnover up an average of 25–30% per month

The client reported that turnover increased on average by 25–30% per month.

Client-reported, from the original project testimonial and quoted in Quentosity's July 2018 write-up of the project.

January 2018 turnover 60% above January 2017

The client reported that turnover in January 2018 was 60% higher than January 2017.

Client-reported in the same 2018 write-up. Historical figures, not current performance.

Multiple services involved — no single cause

The project covered website development, mobile app development, paid search, email, social media, graphic design and custom lead-generation systems.

Because several services ran at once, these results cannot be attributed to any one of them — and search optimisation was not the sole contributor.

Outcomes appear here only where the original project material supports them, and are described as historical and client-reported rather than independently verified.
