It's a Mesh: merging web, mobile and traditional marketing

We were recently selected to design the logo and website for a new regional economic development group in Virginia, the Southern Virginia Regional Alliance.  Last Friday, Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling was in town to kick off the alliance and to introduce the group's new Executive Director, Leigh Cockram; the new logo was unveiled to the public at the event.

If your website doesn't have a mobile version, you must correct that!  Too many sites either display poorly on mobile devices, or even worse, don't display at all.  Recently I tried to visit a site on my iPhone, but it opened up to a blank white page; when I got back to the office I browsed to the site on my laptop and found that it's built entirely on Flash.  That results in nothing to display on the iPhone!

Luckily, when I initially tried to visit the site I wasn't looking to buy or researching a company I may want to do business with; if that had been the case, they would have had a lost sale.

We recently launched the newly redesigned and redeveloped website for Virginia's Motorsports Alley, a regional Tourism and Economic Development initiative; the new site can be viewed at motorsportsalley.com.

The old site was developed several years ago by another company, focusing mainly on Economic Development, and we were contracted to develop an additional Tourism section.   The project scope grew when it was determined that the site's content management system needed to be upgraded to a new version, requiring a new layout to be designed for the new cms version, so the project ended up being a complete site redesign and redevelopment.
