Our site is difficult to navigate. Finding information is impossible.

~User Interface~
Your visitors come to your site, or will continue to come to your site because you have some information to offer. Whether it be a download, a spec sheet, instructions, online help or various other useful content. Information must be organized in a logical hierarchy. The site must be consistent and over time evaluated for useability. Graphics enhance navigation and the user experience during your visitor's hunt for information.

Our products look awful on line. The images are small and fuzzy.

~Image Optimization~
In many cases there is no substitute for taking the time and doing quality work. Making sure the images are optimized for fast display and clarity is important. Offering larger versions for a better perspective is an option. Some times just taking the time and putting a border on an image, or adding a shadow can present a product in a much more appealing way.

We want to train our users with an interactive, server distributed, tutorial.

~Web-Based Training~
You may need to train the employees of large corporate customers on how to use your software or and end user on how to install a fuel enhancer on their car. Directing your user through instruction with clear steps, examples, diagrams, walk throughs, even competency testing can increase the value of a product and enhance the user's satisfaction. Making tutorials web-based offers an efficient channel of distribution.

Our well-funded start-up is finally taking hold but what do we need to make it take off?

~In The Beginning~
Technology of some sort is usually needed... for organization, for accuracy, for the sanity of the employees. But what is needed? What can you expect in the way of growth and are you ready? We lay the path using technology but business never once goes without consideration. We don't look for the quick fix knowing that multiple quick fixes will cost more than the long term solution. We know that growth and change in technology means disruption to your work flow. We know that down time means loss of money and we want to see your business flourish.
