"My name is Michael Peters, German, I live in Lanzarote, that is about 13 hours before NZ, Lanzarote is a small island in the Canary Islands that belong politically to Spain, but is really close to the African cost with a exceptional climate and landscape. I have been living on Lanzarote for 14 years, working for a large Real Estate brokerage, and then as the director for that business for the last 10 years.

At the start of 2010 I decided to set up my own business MICHAEL PETERS ESTATES on Lanzarote, where I will serve as the founding partner and managing director. I was therefore interested to find a reliable and professional business partner with capabilities to assist my plans to create a new striking corporate identity which will empower the business and reflect a professional image of my new venture.

Late in 2009, I contacted Mike Coker at Quiqcorp, whom after some research and a quick discussion, I discovered that he was true to his knowledge and skills across design and web development, and I contracted the services of Quiqcorp. Since then Mike has successfully advised and executed my plans and met targets set for the development of my new business set up.

Mike created a fantastic and easy to manage website and not to forget his input in the process of developing the MICHAEL PETERS ESTATES logo type to start with. The entire work with Mike was perfectly organised and on schedule, certainly a project with a kind of 'wellness' effect - I would absolutely recommend contacting Quiqcorp to deliver on projects of importance.

The start up package and the support I have received was custom made and flexible, every detail was considered and the easy to use content management allows me now to keep the website up to date. Mike introduced and trained me into the eZ Publish for my website, this system was also already customised to my requirements and ready to use. Quiqcorp also provides a hosting service and e-mail for my organisation." - Michael Peters
