Updating your design: A spectacular summer success story

admin — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 20:52:10 +0000

The press is in love with reporting horrible things. I’ve even written about many issues that have been affecting my clients but have always tried to see the silver lining. Reports on the economy, oil spills, war, taxes, and human heads found on a plane do wonders to keep us from being optimistic about what’s [...]

Rush to the imbroglio en masse: Avoid design at your own risk

admin — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 21:25:15 +0000

I’m quickly approaching the 15 year mark working in this evolving world of design, advertising, marketing or whatever-you-may-want-to-call-the-new-mash-up-of-things. I absolutely love what I do, which is really only helping businesses (aka people) introduce themselves to the world.

Dropping Bombs – Trust & Purposeful Design

If there's ever money to be made, people will try to game the system. One of the most asked questions I hear from new clients is how to get traffic to their new site. Very often, the focus isn't as much about what benefit a website can offer a customer or what the experience may be, it's about how to get them there. It's a simple solution, but one that looks to short term gain rather than building a robust business model. The equation goes something like this: More hits = More money That's why everyone is jumping on board the social networking sites. That's why everyone is looking for the next big super trend. That's why everyone is trying to game the system. And that's why everyone is wrong.

Wasting time on the twittery socially networked bloggy book.

Everyone is talking about how the next big thing for your business is getting yourself on the next big webby 2.0 social network. Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, bla diddy bla bla bla. Don’t get me wrong – social networking & blogging sites are immensely valuable tools. In many cases, they have replaced how companies already [...]
