DHL, a global logistics leader, has teamed up with us to boost their Mentorship site, aimed at empowering entrepreneurs with insights to conquer global delivery hurdles and scale their businesses. Tasked by DHL's marketing agency, trevor//peter, we transitioned the site from WordPress to Webflow, enhancing its stability and user experience.
DHL's mentorship campaign, broadcasted across Canada, faced challenges with their WordPress site. They wanted to gain greater control over their site’s content management system (CMS) without being constrained by platform limitations and ongoing maintenance. That's where we stepped in.
After pinpointing essential project needs—ease of CMS management and content control for a marketing site—our go to partner, Webflow, emerged as the solution. We seamlessly migrated the entire site from WordPress to Webflow, streamlining content management and enhancing site reliability, optimization and overall responsiveness.

After identifying the critical requirements for DHL’s content management, conversion tracking and multi-language site, we went straight into ideating the process flow for migrating their site from Wordpress to Webflow. With Trevor // Peter’s collaborative partnership, we were able to quickly bring their designs to life in Webflow with pixel perfect execution.
