One of the best things about working at Designer Websites is collaborating with clients from a wide range of industries. We were recently approached by an exciting new company that specialises in professional golf balls - gimmeballs.
Unlike other golf ball retailers, gimmeballs takes the golf ball buying experience one step further by offering a personalisation service. This means you can turn your favourite professional golf balls into a bespoke gift that's sure to put a smile on any golfer's face! Today we're going to walk you through some of the work we've been doing for them behind the scenes, so you can see how we're bringing their golf ball brand to life.
Why do we love gimmeballs?
As you can probably tell from our portfolio of work, we love working with all kinds of businesses, from large corporations to small up-and-coming businesses. gimmeballs is a family-owned business that was founded back in 2022 to bring high-quality, personalised golf balls to the market. When they approached us, we were immediately captivated by their passion for all things golf & we knew that there was a gap in the market for personalised golf balls, which are becoming more and more popular these days, so there was no doubt in our minds that this website would be a success!
Here in the Designer Websites office, we have a few keen golfers who were over the moon when they discovered we'd be working with such an innovative golf brand. Jason (our Managing Director) and his wife Ruth (our PPC Account Manager), have been playing golf together for a few years now, so they have a good insight into the golfing world and the types of products that would make great gifts for golfers.
Antony (our Accounts Manager), Andrew (one of our Digital Marketing Execs), and Aaron (our Lead Developer) are also keen golfers and often head down to golf courses across South Wales for a round or two of golf. They were equally keen to get stuck in and work on this exciting new golf brand.
Safe to say, we've all taken an interest in the gimmeballs brand and the products they offer. We've even ordered a few personalised golf balls ourselves. Lauren (another one of our Digital Marketing Executives), is now the proud owner of some Srixon UltiSoft golf balls with her adorable dog Jasper printed on them! Take a look...

What have we been working on?
So, now you know why the Designer Websites team was so excited to be working with gimmeballs on their latest venture, let's take a look at some of the things we've been doing to bring the brand to life! As a brand new business, gimmeballs didn't have an existing website or digital presence of any kind, so the whole Designer Websites team has been involved in bringing gimmeballs to life. Find out what we've been up to below.
New website design
We started to build gimmeballs from the ground up by creating a responsive, ecommerce website for them. It was important that the functionality to personalise the golf balls was user-friendly and made the buying process easy. We wanted to make sure that any golfer visiting the website would not only be able to find the best golf balls for them but also personalise their golf balls easily. gimmeballs give you the option to add custom text, logos, photographs, monograms and much more to their golf balls!

Social media accounts
gimmeballs didn't have any social media accounts when they came to us, so that was something we've been working on as well. They now have a Facebook page, an Instagram account, a Twitter account, and a Pinterest account where they can showcase their bespoke golf ball products. If you're keen to see what they've got on offer, be sure to give them a follow:
- gimmeballs Facebook page
- gimmeballs Instagram accounts
- gimmeballs Twitter account
- gimmeballs Pinterest
Marketing campaigns
We've got a lot of fun marketing campaigns lined up for gimmeballs, from giveaways to discount codes that you can take advantage of. We understand how hard it can be for new businesses to gain those all-important first customers, but running some engaging marketing campaigns can really get things moving. Our marketing team is getting to know the ins and outs of the golf world so they can stay up to date with golf trends and interact with the wider golf community. Keep your eyes peeled for gimmeballs:
- Discount codes
- Giveaways
- Social media ads
- Videos
The marketing team will be working hard throughout the year to help gimmeballs reach as many potential customers as possible. If you're a keen golfer, we're sure you'll be seeing a lot more of them soon!
SEO optimisation
As well as bringing the brand to life, our SEO team is also working hard to make sure that the new gimmeballs website ranks highly for a wide range of industry keywords. Achieving high rankings is a great way to bring a constant stream of customers into the new website - free of charge. That's why we put so much emphasis on the organic work we do for our clients, it really can make all the difference, and won't eat into your marketing budget in the same way that PPC or social media ads can.
Over the coming months, we'll be monitoring gimmeballs' rankings to make sure they're securing and maintaining the very top positions in Google's SERP for their top priority keywords.
We're really excited to see how this brand grows and develops over the coming months. If you have a business idea that you'd like us to bring to life, be sure to get in touch with the Designer Websites team. In the meantime, go and get yourself some personalised golf balls from gimmeballs!
