I can’t say enough about what Firefly has done for our online presence. They gave us a flawless start-up plan and through the years have continued to meet all of our needs. They have given us a product which allows us to rate among the top online entities in our industry. They are easy to work with and extremely capable when it comes to understanding and exceeding our goals.
The folks at Firefly were able to not only create a website that functions in the ways that my brand needs, but they were able to make a site that actually celebrates my body of work. They created something that really made my work sing in a whole new way. I really can’t praise them enough.
I’m so grateful for my fabulous website & even more so for the care and attention it gets for critical updates to keep looking so good! Y’all are the best!
Phew!!! You guys got a lot done in a short amount of time. Thanks so much for helping us meet this deadline.
Laura & the Firefly Group have been great to work with! Professional and responsive, they’ve always helped with great suggestions in raising the bar with our SEO Profile.
The decision to go with Firefly to manage our social media and our webpage has not been regretted for one second! They do an outstanding job!
Firefly came on board pre COVID-19 shutdown in March, right as our biggest fundraiser of the year started. As a non-profit we rely on fundraisers to sustain our association. The event quickly had to convert to virtual for the public to access it, Firefly did an amazing job during the transition. We are thrilled with their dedication to their clients, the great teamwork they demonstrate and the willingness to work with us on our needs. Firefly is very positive note for our association during this uncertain 2020.

Efficiency is Key
Accelerate Growth
As your business grows, Firefly is there to take you to the next step with efficient processes that grant you the time to focus on the things that really matter. We recognize that software solutions are not one-size-fits-all, and juggling multiple applications can be cumbersome and time-consuming. Together we work to identify your pain points and develop software that performs to your needs.

Our Process
Our Process
DISCOVERY
Firefly learns about your organization and listens to your needs. We follow with related research, strategy, and solution development. The result is proposed solution, timeline and price.
KICKOFF
We initiate the project in a kickoff where we review the proposed solution and the work required. We review deliverables, timelines, deadlines, the project process and key success factors.
DESIGN
Depending on the solution, Firefly develops a design concept to present and review for approval. If its a custom app we present interface designs and requirements documentation.
Production
In this stage, we take the conceptual work and bring it to life. We produce usable collaterals, websites, ads, logos, billboards, applications, and more depending on the the type of work we’re doing.
Review
Once the work is produced, it is thoroughly tested by the Firefly team and the client team to ensure everything works as planned. Adjustments can be made at this time to meet set goals.
Launch
Now that the work is complete, we present it to the client’s audience. This includes taking websites live, posting digital products, sending out print collaterals and promoting the launch in various channels.
The Most Important Step
Evolve
Your marketing isn’t a static piece of art, it is a living enterprise that should continue to grow. Clients who opt into SEO contracts or other ongoing marketing services will experience the continued evolution of this phase.
Development for the Future
B2C Application Development
We love making your dreams a reality. Some of our clients have a basic idea of a series of steps that can help streamline processes, but they need a partner to turn those steps into an interactive design. For BC2 Design, we employ thorough user testing and research to create experiences that will delight your users. From custom developed plugins for your existing WordPress website to full online applications meant for daily use, we can craft a solution that is customized for you.
Our solutions range from custom developed plugins that add on to your existing WordPress website, to full online applications that your customers use daily.
Your Partner in Content Marketing
Scalability is key when it comes to custom application development. Firefly is always working with clients to create software solutions that can grow with your business. With the flexibility to change your application to suit your current business or consumer needs, we help you to thrive in this ever-changing space.
LEARN ABOUT THE PROCESS
Custom Application Development FAQs
Off the shelf software is more cookie-cutter and designed for mass usage by using standard, easy to understand features. With customized software, you can tailor your processes to your specific needs, directing your investment to features that you will need and use.
Examples of custom application development can be found everywhere, including online patient interfaces, student portals, account management tools for B2B, scheduling tools, volunteer coordination platforms, and more.
Custom software provides many more solutions other than making your day-to-day easier. With solutions tailored to your specific needs, we are able to increase security over standard applications. With only features that you will use, your application becomes more scalable and provides you with direct support from the development team.
The best way to start planning for a new software application is by creating a checklist. Collaborate with several members of your team to decide what features and capabilities you need in order to make your processes run smoothly. Once you identify your overarching needs, you can then work prioritize and establish your budget and estimated timelines.
You’ll know it’s time for a new software application when productivity declines, efforts are being duplicated, collaboration is difficult, the existing technology is outdated, or if the existing software capabilities cannot keep up with business growth.
