Services | Website Design & Development

Advertising & Marketing has evolved from a message to a conversation. Today's consumers are being engaged at multiple points of communication. They see your ad, they hear your commercial, they visit your website, they frequent your establishment, and they build an impression about your brand - and your competitors.

At GFS Design Group, we provide a full marketing 360. With the understanding that all of your communications, from the color of your logo to the words you choose in your email marketing are an integral part of your brand.

Internet, email, print, social-media, it's all your brand. How you hold it, is how they'll see it. So what's a first impression worth? And equally important, once you've made contact, how do you guide them through your sales process? Hope they come back? Or build a system to answer their needs, and incent them to reach out to you.

Strategic Domain Name Acquisition

The website is the business card of the 21st century. It creates instant credibility. Done wrong, it can hurt your business. Utilizing today's technology you can get your message to millions of people, anywhere on the globe. Try to use a template solution, and you'll encounter a myriad of problems. Do it once, and do it right, or do it all over.

Getting Found on the Internet

Not since fire has one force so revolutionized the way we live our lives. With Google, you can literally sell a product or service to a person on the other side of the planet. Knowing how to utilize Google's AdWords, AdSense, and Analytics products in the purest sense allows you to not only reach people, but identify exactly which ones are the most likely to buy/use your product/service.

Targeted Internet Presence

Consistency. Consumers look for reliability, now more than ever. With budgets stretched to the max, people need to know what they get is worth it. If you skimp on your advertising, if you present a message with mixed signals, or if you try the do it yourself approach, you risk everything. At GFS Design Group, we infuse every effort with continuity so client's messages are reassuring, and consistent.

Our Strategy for Your Success

DISCOVERY: DETERMINE YOUR GOALS

We design and develop websites that meet all your goals, and some you didn't even know you had. However, just because the internet is a vast and complex network of computers, doesn't mean your clients are best served by utilizing all it has to offer. Outlining a clear set of goals should be your first step in defining success for your project. We help you do that by first answering some project specific questions.

DEFINE THE SCOPE OF YOUR PROJECT

Target your audience, allocate your content, create the design, and launch your website. It sounds easy because it is. But it's important to understand that successful website design is achieved by spending 80% of your time at the conceptual stage, and 20% creating/coding. Much like building a house, it's easier to make changes at the Blue Print Stage, than to tear down walls after the house is started.

DESIGN/DEVELOP/Test

We've defined our target audience, we know that our goals will be achieved through the content we've created, so there's only one step left. Development. During this stage it's common practice to roll out portions of the site for the client to review, so they feel part of the final product. A website is a very personal effort. It's a direct extension of your brand, to that end we test the sites functionality, it's technical requirements, and push it through a rigorous examination across bandwidth variables, and web browser formats.

Maintenance

Website updates and upgrades are a must. Ease of content management is critical. We match the right solution to the exact needs of your website goals, and your technical capabilities. Database management is critical to aggregating website information. It's with this information that we tailor specific marketing plans to improve website user experience, and increase ROI.
