MEET YOUR WEB DESIGNER
Hi, I'm Tracey and I am chuffed to bits that you are here! My clients tell me that I excel at capturing the essence of their brand and instinctively know how their online presence needs to feel. My friends and family would say that I am highly dependable, trustworthy and kind hearted, with a friendly smile for everyone!
Thank you so much for all of your hard work in creating our new website. We are delighted with the results and already have more people visiting and showing an interest in booking a holiday this summer, which is absolutely fantastic. You are such a pleasure to work with. You have wonderful ideas, work so hard to create exactly what your customer is looking for and have so much patience in the ongoing support that you have given to us as we adapt to using ‘WordPress’. You are a star and we wish you continued success with your business…
Muzaffer Otlu,

Tracey’s Story
My career really started in sales and marketing with Vodafone Corporate where I was promoted over the years to senior manager. Vodafone gave me so much including professionalism, a commercial background, some seriously excellent customer services skills and a work ethic that has taken me above and beyond! I won an award in my final year for contract of the year with Deloitte worth £5m.
But… I had a dream to go off to France and restore a ruin and that’s exactly what we did! After a lot of sweat and tears our beautiful Quercy Farmhouse was returned to its former glory!
We wanted an investment we could rent out and we found a pretty little villa in Turkey with an incredible view of the Mediterranean. A website, was required and it couldn’t be that hard, after all I had learned French and I love design in all shapes and sizes! So I crafted a website with a holiday vibe and it was successful, the villa was fully booked for all of the seven years that we owned it. Plus I won an award for my first web design from 123-reg, a hosting company!
This led to friends asking me to craft a website. My business was born.
I am highly driven, a very quick learner and very much a self starter. I bought lots of books, did lots of courses and worked hard, often into the early hours. The Design Principles degree course was the best thing I ever did. In 2009 I started to work with WordPress and today I am proud to call myself a specialist in WordPress and WooCommerce.
Nearly 2 decades on I have never had the knowledge, skill and experience that I have today. My clients benefit from inspirational and bespoke design, plenty of exciting ideas and positive suggestions and arguably one of the best customer experiences that exists!
We have just gone through a business re-brand and found the real essence of our business and what we do. Tracey Rickard Design Studio is born out of love and collaboration and we are so very proud!
