Where the business started
What it was costing the team
Day to day with touring vehicle requests, visitors could not tell which answer needed fixing. Trying again sometimes wiped information they had already entered correctly.
What we built
The rebuilt form labels everything persistently and reports errors in place. Nothing valid is lost on retry, travel dates, passenger count and intended route are requested, and optional fields say so.
- Persistent labels
- Inline errors
- Retained field values
- Keyboard focus
- Optional-field labels

Questions about this project
How long did this project take?
15 working days after content approval, including staff review and handover. That is 15 working days from the client approving the content to handover. A whole new site launches in 7 to 15 days from the onboarding call depending on the plan.
What exactly was built?
The rebuilt form labels everything persistently and reports errors in place. Nothing valid is lost on retry, travel dates, passenger count and intended route are requested, and optional fields say so. The parts used were: Persistent labels, Inline errors, Retained field values, Keyboard focus, Optional-field labels.
Why is the business not named?
The client asked us not to publish its name or web address, so it is described by type and region: a off-grid campervan hire firm in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Irene Middlebrook, front office supervisor, is quoted in their own words.
Does this cost extra on top of a plan?
No. Work like this sits inside a managed plan rather than a separate project fee. Plans start at $127 a month, with a $697 one-time build fee invoiced only after the site is live and approved.
