How can I help you?
My job is to provide you with an honest evaluation of your needs, and deliver you a high quality solution to meet those needs. I enjoy working with individuals, bloggers, budding entrepenures, and small businesses. My clients who focus on providing general services to the public, are non-profit, in the retail business, or are artists have also found that the assistance and direction I provide is outstanding.
About me
I am Lauren Smith, a multidisciplined web designer and developer with a passion for problem solving. I aim to provide creative, reliable services, along with trustworthy support. Although I began as an illustrator, I wandered my way into the world of web design in 2006 as a Junior Web Designer and find myself, today, a much improved web developer.
My Approach
To fully understand the business model and brand, I'll work closely with you to focus on your individual marketing needs and the message your brand strives to present to the world. I ensure that you are apart of every step in the creative process with me.
Consultation: Let's Talk
My approach starts with an initial call or email from you. You may want to discuss an awesome concept or a general idea of what you need. Either way, I'll be happy to take that idea and work with you to make it even better. Or you may want to ask "How much does it cost?", "How long does it take?", or "Can you build me a site that's better than my competitors?" I'll be happy to answer all of those questions and more.
Website Design & Development
If it's a website you need, I'll start with an analysis of your business model, your target audience, and then map out a design. Using the latest web standards I'll follow through with building your website, ready to be indexed by major search engines.
E-mail Campaigns and Promotional Kits
If you're searching for a great and cost-effective way to communicate with your audience and site visitors, e-mail newsletters are the way to go. I'm able to design and construct newsletter templates, ready to use with your own distribution software. I'll set you up with the knowledge you need to be able to create and send your own campaigns, test promotions, and generate reports based on those campaigns. Web banner ads, fliers, and posters are also great ways to carry your message to your audience.
Corporate Branding and Logo Design
Every new company, needs a face. The most effective way to do that is to give it a logo. If you feel your current logo needs a make-over, I'm more than ready to do that too.
