How We Help
  • Lion Interactive was established by our founders in 1999, aligning with one of the earliest waves of internet growth. Over the past 20+ years, we've consistently expanded and made significant impacts for a diverse range of clients. Our success lies in unlocking continuous value and fostering long-term relationships grounded in trust and mutual benefits.

  • We pride ourselves on fostering close relationships with our partners and clients, as opposed to operating like a large, detached offshore team. This approach facilitates a deep understanding of mutual needs and expectations. In the event of any misunderstandings or concerns regarding the scope of work or specific definitions, we prioritize collaborative efforts to reach common ground and bridge any gaps. With our fixed-approach software engineering, we typically guarantee our work for two to three months after launch. This follows an extensive QA and user acceptance testing phase. This ensures our clients can launch with confidence, knowing their project is backed by our committed engineering team and our promise to address and rectify any post-launch issues.

  • We choose technology based on current best practices that promote scalable growth at an economical cost. While we enjoy being at the forefront of modern innovations, we exercise caution and avoid adopting new technologies that haven't been widely validated. Drawing from our multi-decade experience, we've observed the ebb and flow of various technologies. With that perspective, we prioritize longevity, scalability, and affordability when assessing and recommending technological solutions.

  • Our typical budget range is anywhere from $20 to $50,000 on the low end. On the high end, we have certain-figure engagements, which vary depending on the duration of the project, the impact, and the team members being utilized, among other factors.

  • After many years of implementing enterprise-level WordPress solutions, we have become intimately familiar with its capabilities and its potential for dynamic and headless customization. We excel at configuring it for administrator ease-of-use, and we are well-versed in leveraging its strengths for search engine optimization. While WordPress is a favored content management system, it's not the only one we employ. Depending on the specifics of a project or the needs of a particular application, we also utilize other platforms such as Craft, Contentful, and even Webflow.

  • Our approach is consistently goal-oriented, and the return on investment (ROI) can manifest in various ways. For E-commerce-based engagements, we often analyze conversion rates, customer acquisition costs, and customer lifetime value to comprehend the impact we're generating. In other scenarios, ROI can be observed through reduced overhead costs and a decreased need for full-time employees. By leveraging technology, we enhance productivity without requiring as many hands on deck. Since our expertise spans both product design engineering and product marketing, some of our key performance indicators (KPIs) may take longer to fully realize. For example, in content marketing, understanding the ROI around content creation can be a gradual process. This kind of ROI can be gauged through metrics like website traffic, user engagement, growth of potential markets, and tracing back to a user journey that results in conversion metrics.
