Who are New Zealand’s accredited Webflow Partners?
There are two types of Webflow Partners - Professional Partners, and Enterprise Partners.
As of June 2021, there are 5 accredited Professional Webflow Partners in New Zealand. These are Psychoactive Studios, Almond, Neon Hive, Analogue and Not Another.
So far, there are no Webflow Enterprise Partners in New Zealand or Australia. Enterprise Partners tend to work as full-service agencies on large scale and long term engagements. Although Psychoactive Studios meets all of the requirements to become an Enterprise Partner and has numerous certified Webflow employees, we want to remain approachable for both small scale and large scale clients. Our team enjoys working on a diverse range of projects, both locally and internationally.
Who are the other Webflow Designers practising in New Zealand?
The best place to find Webflow experts in New Zealand is through Unicorn Factory, a centralised platform for Kiwi freelancers to showcase their work. Some of the sites most sought after freelancers are Andrew Hillstead - Founder & Director of Psychoactive studios, Alex Murton - Co-Founder & Director of Almond, and Connor Finlayson - No Code Expert & Founder of Unicorn Factory.
Some other Webflow superstars include Nikolai Bain, who has co-hosted the Wellington Webflow Meetup with Psychoactive, Grace Potter, who did a web design and Webflow internship with Psychoactive, and Emroy Fierlinger, who has done some work with Psychoactive in the past.
Other up and coming Webflow practitioners on Unicorn Factory include Nikki Gibbons and Uili Fecteau. As the year progresses, we’re sure we’ll see more Webflow designers and developers appear in this space. Keep an eye out!
Alternatively, Upwork is also a helpful website where you can find New Zealand based freelancers who work with Webflow. The directory is still growing and therefore most designers haven’t yet developed enough portfolio work to showcase their expertise. However, one stand-out designer listed on Upwork is Sorithika (Karl), who has worked on a few Webflow projects.
Finally, not listed on any directories, Liv Strawbridge and Dan Palmer are also Webflow freelancers worth looking out for.
