Our Story

With the goal of somehow combining her love of art with 20+ years in the computer industry and her passion for the internet Audrey Shearer started consulting as Spiral Web Design. It was 1998 and

  • Jenny Shipley was Prime Minister
  • Titanic and Saving Private Ryan were box office hits
  • Savage Garden released "Truly, Madly, Deeply"

Our first customer was Janet Simes, owner of Absolutely Organised and our first customer (who wasn't an old friend) was Pat Sheehan, Secretary for PSBG. Both are still customers.

With a growing number of customers more talent was needed so Michelle joined Spiral and we became a team. Before long there were 3 of us trying to work out of the back of Audrey's home.

2004 and Spiral took a huge leap as we moved from a consulting organisation and offered a full set of website services to clients AND became an incorporated company. We took office space in Seaview which we soon outgrew and moved to our current situation in Jackson Street, in October 2005.

Since joining "The Street" we have

  • grown the depth and experience of our team
  • discovered new ways to help customers
  • improved our workflow processes
  • connected with the community
  • kayaked to Ward Island and cycled to Pencarrow
  • and met the most amazing people, many of who are now customers

We love what we do, we love helping local people make a success of their business and we intend to keep doing it.
