GunnRunners are a not-for-profit charity running group based at the Gunn Island Hotel in Middle Park, Melbourne. Their existing website lacked the option for them to edit and update content of their own, and did not have a members-only area.

The site was designed so as to allow visitors to register and purchase membership online. Once membership was paid, users were given access to additional features of the website. This allowed members to view photos from previous running events,  and participate in voting decisions (such as the election of committee members).

As well as incorporating standard shopping features, the site also demanded some additional customisation. Site users needed to be able to purchase tickets on a bus to a running event. Not wanting a particular event (and spaces on the bus) to be overbooked, a smart feature was added to the site whereby the amount of tickets available would be displayed to site visitors.

The previous website already had an existing newsletter system. Rather than using our standard newsletter service, we were able to integrate their existing contact database and email marketing system into their new website.
