<h2>ABOUT US - BETWEEN THE FLAGS (Est. 1994)</h2>
<h3>Between the Flags is one of Australia’s leading beach and lifestyle outfitters.</h3>
<p>With 37,000kms of coastline and 11,000 beaches, Australia is best known for its outdoor lifestyle, bronzed bodies in bikinis and board shorts, surfers, white sandy beaches and our ever-vigilant Lifesavers donning red and yellow rescue caps. It’s what life Down Under is all about. It’s what 6 million visitors come to get a taste of every year!</p>
<p>Since 1994, Between the Flags has been designing classic beach and lifestyle apparel to honour and uphold the spirit of Australia’s surf lifesaving culture.</p>
<p>As Surf Life Saving Australia’s (SLSA) official retail partner Between the Flags holds exclusive licensing agreements for SLSA and several independent Surf Lifesaving Clubs and Associations around the country (see our list of partners).</p>
<p>Hundreds of thousands of dollars in royalties are generated from BTF sales and are given to SLSA every year to help keep our beaches patrolled, saving hundreds of lives every year.</p>
<p>Between 2006 and 2007, surf lifesavers and lifeguards conducted 11,500 rescues, prevented 460,000 accidents and provided first aid for 41,000.</p>
<p>Every time you purchase a BTF t-shirt, hoodie, board short, shirt, rashie, bikini or dress, you’re helping SLSA save a life. One day, it might save yours.</p>
<p>There are many BTF stores in prime holiday destinations around the country in Port Douglas, Cairns, Noosa, Surfers Paradise, Bondi, Manly, Perth and Fremantle.</p>
<h3>Our Partners</h3>
<p>Between the Flags remains committed to supporting Australia’s surf life saving and lifeguard movement and we work closely with our licensed partners to help keep these vital services patrolling our beaches.</p>

No longer just consigned as a technology to help customers "Classic" CRM is no longer viable.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Classic&#8221; CRM is no longer viable - a one dimensional corporate interaction that provides processes, services and technology to the customer facing departments - sales, marketing and customer service.</p>
<p>It is time to recognise that there is a customer ecosystem (or is there, participants?) that provides empowered customers who are increasingly interested in making their own choices in how they interact with companies that they do business with.</p>
<p>That means that not only does the company need to provide the goods and services, but the tools and culture to make the experience of that customer one of paramount and unparalleled value to that customer and thus to the company in return.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What is Good Web Design?</p>
<p>In the simplest terms, good web design works.</p>
<p>Ok, but what does that mean?</p>
<p>Well, we’ve all seen good websites; they’re the ones where the navigation is obvious, instinctive even.</p>
<p>That is, it is so easy to get where you what to go, you don’t even need to think about it.</p>
<p>And once you get there, the information or product you want is clearly displayed easily read and simply bought.</p>
<p>All of which should be really simple. But isn’t.</p>
<p>There are so many factors that a designer must take into consideration with so many possible permutations of browsers, platforms, and technologies available.</p>
<p>Good Web design has become somewhat akin to the delicate act of walking the high wire.</p>
<p>At webtactics we live under the three tenets of good web design: great visual appeal, quick loading (really just how many more slow sites do you need to sit through?) and ease of navigation.</p>
<p>Design wise, good websites don’t need to be the coolest on the block, nor do they need to be the most expensive. They just need to do the job they were designed to do. And look good doing it. And load quickly. But that’s all.</p>
<p>Using the label &#8220;Professional Web Design&#8221; does not make us expensive; it just means that we do think about our work, are proud of previous projects and look forward to building your business the best site, within budget that is possible.</p>
<p>Look, we aren&#8217;t the biggest web design firm in Sydney by any means. But we are one of the better.</p>
<p>We invite you to give us a call on 02 9388 7362 to discuss how we can help you achieve positive return on investment of your web design dollars.</p>
