Project Overview

Iconic Brand Group is a custom website and CMS platform created for a strategic consulting and marketing agency. The public website presents the company’s services, industries served, service locations, business consulting solutions, marketing solutions, client trust sections, testimonials, blogs, and conversion-focused call-to-action areas.

The backend CMS was built to help administrators manage website content without directly editing code. It includes modules for states, cities, service types, services, page content, media files, audit logs, admin users, and profile/security settings. This makes the platform suitable for managing a large SEO-driven service website with many location and industry pages.

The system was built using Next.js for the frontend and Node.js for backend/API functionality, with a custom CMS interface for business content operations.
