# Queue North Website Redesign Strategy

# Core Problem

Current website branding feels:

* too abstract
* too technical
* too personal
* too experimental

The site currently resembles:

* a developer portfolio
* infrastructure hobby project
* underground tech blog

Instead of:

* a mature B2B UCaaS provider
* managed IT partner
* enterprise communications company

This creates trust friction immediately.

Business buyers need confidence within seconds.

# Business Positioning

Queue North should position itself as:

## Primary Identity

Reliable business communications and IT infrastructure partner for SMB and enterprise clients.

## Supporting Identity

Modern, technically competent, responsive, security conscious.

Not:

* hacker aesthetic
* underground engineering lab
* mysterious tech collective

---

# Recommended Brand Direction

## Desired Feel

The website should feel:

* modern
* clean
* stable
* operationally mature
* enterprise capable
* technically sharp
* trustworthy

Think:

* RingCentral
* Zoom
* Cloudflare
* Cisco Meraki
* Dialpad
* 8x8
* Microsoft business products

But less corporate and less soulless.

Human but competent.

# Homepage Structure

# 1. Hero Section

## Goal

Instant clarity.

User should immediately understand:

* what Queue North does
* who it serves
* why it matters

## Recommended Headline

Business communications and IT that actually work.

Alternative:

Modern UCaaS and managed IT for businesses that cannot afford downtime.

## Supporting Text

Queue North delivers cloud communications, networking, managed IT, and infrastructure support for SMBs and enterprise teams.

## CTA Buttons

* Schedule Consultation
* View Services

Optional secondary:
* Contact Support

---

# 2. Trust Signals Section

This section should appear immediately after hero.

## Include

* uptime guarantees
* support response times
* certifications
* vendor partnerships
* years in business
* client industries
* deployment count
* SLA metrics

## Example Metrics

* 99.99% uptime
* 24/7 support
* multi site deployments
* secure cloud infrastructure
* enterprise grade failover

This is critical.

B2B buyers purchase risk reduction, not technology.

---

# 3. Services Section

## Recommended Layout

Clean enterprise card grid.

## Service Categories

### UCaaS

* hosted VoIP
* business phones
* call routing
* conferencing
* remote workforce support

### Managed IT

* endpoint management
* helpdesk
* patching
* infrastructure monitoring

### Networking

* SD WAN
* VPN
* firewall management
* switching
* wireless deployments

### Security

* MFA
* endpoint protection
* backups
* compliance
* monitoring

Each card should explain business outcomes, not technical jargon.

Bad:
"Kubernetes managed SIP orchestration"

Good:
"Reliable business communications with centralized management and failover"

Humans love inventing incomprehensible wording and then wondering why sales calls disappear.

---

# 4. Industry Use Cases

Very important for B2B trust.

## Example Industries

* healthcare
* logistics
* retail
* manufacturing
* legal
* finance
* distributed offices

Each section should explain:

* operational problems
* compliance needs
* uptime requirements
* remote work needs

---

# 5. Why Queue North

## Focus On

* responsiveness
* reliability
* technical depth
* direct support
* proactive monitoring
* vendor neutrality

## Avoid

Generic corporate fluff like:

* innovative solutions
* digital transformation
* next generation synergy nonsense

Every B2B site writes this garbage and nobody believes any of it anymore.

---

# 6. Testimonials / Case Studies

Mandatory.

Enterprise buyers need validation.

## Include

* measurable outcomes
* reduced downtime
* migration success
* support quality
* deployment scale

Even 2 or 3 strong case studies massively improve credibility.

---

# 7. Support & Operations

This is where technical sophistication can appear.

## Good Technical Signals

* network operations center visuals
* uptime dashboards
* support workflows
* monitoring systems
* escalation paths

## Bad Technical Signals

* hacker visuals
* terminal cosplay
* random code snippets
* obscure infrastructure references

Technical competence should feel controlled and operational.

Not chaotic.

---

# Visual Design Recommendations

# Colors

## Base

* white
* dark slate
* muted blue
* graphite

## Accent

* blue
* teal
* restrained cyan

Avoid:

* neon green
* hacker black/red
* cyberpunk palettes

Those aesthetics destroy enterprise trust surprisingly fast.

---

# Typography

## Recommended

* Inter
* Geist
* IBM Plex Sans

Professional sans serif.

Monospace only for tiny UI accents if needed.

---

# Layout Style

## Use

* large spacing
* strong hierarchy
* clean sections
* restrained motion
* clear CTAs

## Avoid

* excessive animations
* overloaded visuals
* scrolling gimmicks
* terminal-first design

Enterprise sites should feel efficient.

---

# Recommended Technical Stack

## Best Option

### Astro or Next.js

With:

* Tailwind
* Framer Motion lightly used
* CMS integration
* fast performance
* accessibility focus

---

# Key Messaging Shift

## Current Impression

"Interesting technical person"

## Required Impression

"Reliable communications and IT partner for serious businesses"

That distinction changes everything about the design language.
