Digital Winds Behind the Sails: Web Platform for Cheese Sailing
29 January 2021VanDutch, an iconic name in the world of luxury dayboats, is known for its Dutch-inspired aesthetics, unmistakable minimalist lines, and global celebrity clientele. As the brand expanded internationally, it required a unified, high-end digital and marketing infrastructure to match its prestige.
Bilişim Atölyesi partnered with VanDutch to deliver a comprehensive global marketing and digital transformation project that covered everything from core branding assets to real-time mobile booking technology. Our mission: make every touchpoint feel as refined as a VanDutch vessel.
Global Marketing Management Across Digital & Print
Operating across Europe, the U.S., and the Middle East, VanDutch needed a cohesive brand experience that could scale globally while remaining local in relevance. We provided:
- All printed marketing materials including brochures, catalogs, event signage, and product documentation
- Digital assets: visual packs for dealerships, branded presentations, display ads, and media kits
- Design systems for consistent use across continents and partners
- Asset libraries for centralized access by local teams
We ensured that every visual material — from a business card in Miami to a showroom banner in Saint-Tropez — aligned with the VanDutch brand promise: elegance, simplicity, and innovation.
Website Development: VanDutch.com Redefined
VanDutch’s website serves as the central hub for global visibility, model presentation, lead generation, and dealership interaction. Bilişim Atölyesi delivered a fully redesigned, multilingual website that included:
- Interactive model showcases with spec filters, image sliders, and downloadable content
- Dealer locator with geo-targeted support
- Integrated CRM and lead capture systems
- Optimized page speed, responsive layout, and SEO-friendly structure
The platform was built to scale and designed to impress, helping both end customers and international partners engage seamlessly.
VanDutchGo — Real-Time Yacht Booking App & Web Platform
One of the most forward-thinking components of this collaboration was the development of VanDutchGo, a mobile and web-based platform for real-time yacht chartering.
Bilişim Atölyesi developed the full system, which included:
- Mobile app (iOS/Android) for browsing, booking, and managing rentals
- Real-time availability and fleet status dashboard
- Secure payment integrations and location-based services
- Admin panels for fleet operators and local agents
This technology allowed VanDutch to bridge the gap between digital and physical experiences, empowering users to book luxury on the go while maintaining the exclusivity of the brand.
Social Media & SEO: Digital Visibility at Scale
To further support VanDutch’s global growth, we provided:
- Ongoing social media strategy and content production across platforms
- Launch campaigns for new locations, models, and charter hubs
- SEO audits, keyword planning, and on-page optimization
- Regional SEO localization for multi-market targeting
Our team worked closely with VanDutch’s marketing directors in Europe and the U.S. to ensure every campaign remained aligned with the brand’s positioning while speaking directly to regional audiences.
