Toptal in Action
Discover the cutting-edge benefits our clients enjoy from the global Toptal network.
A team of Toptal talent delivers a CMS-powered website in half the projected time.
Challenge: One upside of the pandemic was an explosion in the popularity of road trips. Seeing a huge opportunity, an established travel agency turned to a tech-centric growth marketing agency to develop a content-managed website for their travel app. Lacking the in-house expertise to meet their client’s tight deadline, the agency enlisted Toptal to curate a team of specialists.
Solution: Within three days, Toptal sourced a project manager, a CMS developer, and a UX/UI designer with 36 years of combined experience to initiate the project. This efficient team created the site in half the originally projected timeframe.
Outcome: Toptal’s team delivered a sophisticated advertising site for a road trip-based travel app in just 4.5 weeks, and then incorporated features previously beyond the project scope in an additional 1.5 weeks. The marketing agency delivered the site on time and retained the client for future engagements.
There were no issues at all—the team Toptal put together was 10/10.
