Brave Ones
Empowering an Independent Metal Band
For independent bands, having a strong online presence is crucial for reaching fans and selling music and merchandise directly. Brave Ones, a metal band hailing from Somerset, UK, found themselves burdened with hefty monthly fees for their previous website, which was limiting their ability to connect with their audience effectively. They needed a solution that was both cost-effective and powerful, allowing them to take full control of their online sales. That’s where we came in.
The Challenge: High Costs and Limited Control
Brave Ones were stuck with a website that was not only expensive to maintain but also lacked the flexibility they needed to manage their sales and connect with fans. With high monthly fees draining their resources, they needed a platform that offered more control without the steep costs. The goal was to create a user-friendly site where they could sell their albums and merchandise directly to their fans, all while reflecting their unique style as a band.
We built Brave Ones a brand-new website using Elementor and WooCommerce, two powerful tools that combined to deliver exactly what they needed. Elementor allowed us to create a custom design that perfectly matched their metal aesthetic, while WooCommerce provided the functionality to sell albums, merch, and more directly to their fanbase. The new site is not only visually striking but also easy for the band to manage, giving them full control over their online store without the excessive costs.
The Results
With their new custom-built website, Brave Ones can now sell their music and merchandise directly to their fans, keeping more of the profits in-house and reducing their monthly expenses significantly. The site is tailored to their brand, offering a seamless experience for fans looking to support the band. By cutting out the middleman, Brave Ones have gained the freedom to run their online presence on their own terms.
For independent bands like Brave Ones, having a website that’s both cost-effective and fully customizable is a game-changer. This project demonstrates how a tailored approach can empower artists to take control of their online sales and engage more directly with their audience. We’re proud to have helped Brave Ones break free from the constraints of their old website and build a platform that truly supports their journey as a band.
