No Old-School Internet Marketing or Outdated Website Styles
Back in the old days (the late 90's) just having a website was a status symbol which placed you amongst the elite, or in some cases exposed you to ridicule as self-indulgent. Websites were unimaginative and search engine placement (that would be Yahoo!) was a given.
Yes, old Grand Dads' life was simple and unburdened with annoying little challenges like the competition of 300 million other websites that get between you and your customers. Interestingly enough, many companies still make their living churning out all manner of websites without any vision beyond just producing the website.
Our Story
First a little background on us, and then I'll tell you how we're different…
Kreative Webworks, Inc. was founded in 1999 by Chuck Bankoff (that's me). We were one of the first WSI offices in the United States, and to this date still a proud member of the WSI global network of Internet consultants.
We started off as a website development company, and that was our core competency for many years. As the Internet evolved, so did we. Over the years websites became means to an end and no longer the end goal.
As we grew our firm and WSI grew their network of Internet Consultants, I had the privilege of training hundreds of their offices in 7 different countries on Internet marketing programs and website development strategies. We still speak at digital marketing conferences and mentor other Internet Consultants around the world.
Back in 1999 my entire office consisted of a laptop computer, a HP all-in-one printer/fax machine and a cell phone on a miniature desk in the corner of my living room. Today we have a full staff in a beautiful office overlooking the ocean in Capistrano Beach in Orange County California. We still have that desk…
This is the part where I tell you how we're different…
We have a full staff of designers, project managers, search engine experts, consultants and social media savvy experts. More than that, we have access to all the state-of-the-art technology and platforms that WSI and their partners have to offer.
Aside from bringing over a decade of experience to the table, what makes us different is the way we approach an assignment. There are two things in particular that make a difference to our clients:
Business Friendly Website Design: Business friendly simply means that every aspect of the website design…from the technology and functionality, to the user experience is strategically considered and implemented. That includes the look and feel of the design, search engine readiness, the "call to action" and the ability to monitor results. It's all built right into the design.
Partner Plus program: We've learned over the years that most business are successful because they literally "mind their own business". They have neither the time nor expertise to learn about a moving target like digital marketing. Our Partner Plus program is where we essentially become our clients Digital Marketing department. We take full responsibility for every aspect of the website design, upkeep and marketing.
We've won creative design awards for our website productions, and we welcome website-only projects both large and small, as well as our partner relationships.
Oh, and there's one more thing… personal attention. You've probably heard that before, but we actually follow-through with it. You will never go through a series of departments. You will either talk directly with your own dedicated project manager, or you will talk to me.
