Profile

MSW-Adtek is a Leeds based company serving customers all over the country.

Brief History
In 1992 we started trading under the name of Adtek as an office administrations company providing administration services to local small businesses, Adtek being an abbreviation of Administrations Technologies. The idea came from our time in employment with a “Temping Agency”. We discovered how horrendously expensive it was to actually use semi qualified “Temps”, Further research only confirmed this. We realized that for most small to medium size companies, bringing in “Temps” was a big decision, as they had to way up the cost/time equation. Basically was it cost effective to use Temps in the time allocated to the Job.

We realized that we could provide a similar service for a fraction of the price, and so Adtek was formed.

However in time we found that we were getting more and more enquiries asking whether we produced company web sites. It seemed at the time that the internet was something that might get quite popular, so we took our first tentative steps into web site design. It soon became apparent that our initial hunch on the internet was right; however this was not really part of Adteks’ brief.

Since our policy was “Thinking Big whilst Staying Small” we formed Megashrimp Webmaster to provide Webmaster facilities for the fledgling internet market. Over time we found that web sites were becoming the mainstay of both businesses with Adtek providing more of an administrative role for Megashrimp Webmaster or MSW as it became known.

In 2001 after much deliberation the decision was taken to amalgamate the two companies into one, and as MSW was now the larger of the two, it would take precedence. MSW Adtek was formed.

Our Goals and Aims
We have always strived to keep to our initial goal, which was to provide a professional service at rates the small business could afford. From our research we have found that many of the larger web site design companies charge fees that are way beyond the reach of the small to medium size businessman, or that Temping Agencies often put a 150-200% profit margin on each of their agents fees. We will strive to provide a service that is second to none at rates that are affordable to you.

We endeavor to keep up with the latest trends and technologies, so our customers know that the service they receive from us is the most modern and up to the minute.

We also make it our policy to stay with our customers forming long lasting relationships with them, as we find that this is beneficial to both parties; our customers know they can contact us whenever there may be a problem or they need additional work doing, and in return we can inform them of any changes that are happening that we feel they need to keep abreast of.

The Future
By keeping our aims and policies simple, and by forming long term relationships with our customers, we look upon the future as a challenge we are ready to face. We will strive to maintain our high standards, and to ensure our customers receive the best quality of service we can possibly provide
