client: Ole Store Restaurant
summary: A current client for Careytech turned to us when they bought an historic restaurant. First, they needed a modern website that reflects their atmosphere and their motto: contemporary dining with neighborhood charm. The home page launches a stylish slide-show that reveals "neighbors" enjoying its atmosphere, decor, and food. The online menus and galleries sustain this theme. The About section tabs through the history, master chef, and a video on how the community-famous "Ole Roll" is made.
A second and very important need was their web presence...
client: Elite Hair Salon
summary: Each project at The Studios begins with an assessment of the local competitor sites, a review of best-in-class sites for that industry, and a goal of delivering for our client a website that stands beyound those from its competitors. Elite Hair Salon hired Careytech to do just that. Now, not only do the salon's patrons leave as some of the best looking people in the community – Elite Hair tells us they feel they have the best looking salon website in the community!
client: 5 Star Insurance Professionals
summary: When people know you as "5 Star" and "Professionals," they expect your website to reflect both. The prominent icons intuitively lead the site visitor to the type of insurance he or she is looking for. Our client is free to add relevant videos and FAQ items under each section. A single page contains all the information for an insurance type including links to request a quote and a contact number. In addition to a Google map plotting their home office, we added a link to popup an aerial map that simplifies directions on where to park.
client: Business Launch Legal Services
summary: A year earlier the client had commissioned another web company to build their site. In short, it was another failed WordPress site: the graphics were uninspiring and the online payment system never did work. Careytech worked with the legal firm to better organize the information and liven up the prose by liberally appling illustrative photos. The client's branding was grafted in. The online payment system not only worked, it saved the client over $50/month on merchant services.
client: 2008 Leadership Development Conference
A national conference featuring Colin Powell was targeting corporate executives across the US and Canada. The web site had to be professional, to-the-point, and easy for busy executive or their assistants to gather information and register. Web architect Randy Carey drove this project and built the event/registration site through his role as director of information strategies. The project evoked the attention of the ASAE (American Society of Association Executives), and here is the article they published through which Randy explains all the phases of architecting such a site.
