Objectives
As you can see, Marie has experience in creating a design for any marketing / advertising need. To make your advertising dollars successful, it is critical that we ask you the right questions to understand your business to achieve your desired outcome. Some of the questions will be:
- What is your objective?
- Who is your target audience?
- What message / idea do you want to communicate?
- Who / What is your competition?
- What kind of response do you want?
Consistency
Keeping a consistent look and feel to your marketing material is important for brand identity. Visually a customer will know right away who is advertising just by the look of the ads. Here are two examles of good visual identity that Marie created.
Web Site Design
With the electronic age in full swing, it is important that your marketing not only work in print media, but in the digital media as well. Marie is not only able to design the look and feel for your web site, but can code the web site in XHTML too.
