Feature Project > GGroup.ca: Communicating Core Business Values Through Creative Website Design
GGroup of Companies has been doing business in the Okanagan for decades. The growth of the company and the marketing requirements for the business made it necessary for GGroup to build its corporate presence online with a new website.
The goals of the website were two-fold: (1) promote GGroup's real estate development projects, and (2) highlight GGroup's corporate philosophy - environmental, social and economic stewardship. GGroup has a unique perspective which is followed through business operations; this perspective is to ensure that their current businesses do not, at any point, leave a negative footprint for future generations to contend with. The challenge for DotCom Media was to design a website that visually connected GGroup's core business values to their real estate development projects.
Website Design > 5 Ways To Find Out If Your Website Is Hurting Your Business
Can your website hurt your business? Believe it or not, the answer to that question is yes – absolutely! Like anything you own (house, car, computer, television, etc.), over time websites may need some freshening up, they may need an overhaul, or they may need to be replaced altogether. The reasons for this may be as follows:
- The design is out-dated and hindering the delivery of the message.
- The website may be inefficient and too costly to maintain and update.
There comes a point when a website could actually be hurting your business, not helping it.
Attack of the Snowmen
Back in December, some of you might remember receiving a Christmas e-card from us calling for you to send in your best snowmen. Well after hundreds of entries, here are some of the best!
December in Review
First off, all of us at DotCom would like to wish everyone a happy new year to you and your families, and all the best in 2009.
Wow, what a month to finish off a great year. Busy, busy, busy.
First up, we would like to congratulate Vista Radio and 103.9 The Juice for their new website launch. Kelowna’s newest radio station came to DotCom Media looking for a fresh look to match the personality of their company. The site design incorporated the refreshing colors of their brand, along with the functionality that a successful radio station would need – all powered by DotCom’s .cms solution. To view the Juice’s newly designed website, click here.
Secondly, congratulations to GGroup of Companies and the launch of their new website GGroup.ca. Truly a great looking website with some amazingly cool Flash-work and programming features. To view GGroup's new website, click here.
We would also like to congratulate and offer our support for our friend Maxine Dehart for her recent step into the political ring. To find out how you can learn more about Max, you can visit her newly launched website here.
That pretty much wraps up December - see everyone next month!
