Bay Area Graphics & Marketing Newsletter

Plant Your Idea With Us and Watch Your Website Grow! Fast,
Growing your online business takes time and talent but--hiring a decent web design firm doesn't have to cost an arm and a leg. Adding fresh content to your website, blogging and tuning up your titles with a "call to action," are tasks that often "fall by the wayside," or otherwise are pushed to the bottom of our to-do-lists!

Affordability is always the main focus when purchasing products and services. Much like the price of oil, postage and dentistry-- (apologies to my Dentist) many website design firms have been offering overpriced services to small businesses for years  and for the most part, there's no logical reason for it. There are competitive options when it comes to the initial design of your site. Many businesses purchase templates believing that it is a simple solution to saving money. However, one has to be able to manipulate and execute these templates into a working version of a website and what business owner has time for all of that? Additionally and most importantly, If branding matters (and it always should) templates are not the way to go.

You can grow your online business affordably and rapidly. Within one to two weeks you can enjoy and begin to prosper from your basic, custom designed website by Bay Area Graphics & Marketing! Your site will be a one of a kind design, tailored to your needs (WE NEVER USE TEMPLATES) content, graphics and major search engine submissions all for less than $1000. Way less.

If you really need a website but are assuming you can't afford it, please give us a call. We promise to give you the best price possible according to your needs. Do you have a budget in mind but feel like it might discourage your designer? Don't assume anything...just call us--we'd love to work with you!

Growing your business online can be easy, affordable and hassle free. And when your site is up and running and portraying your company image the way you've dreamed it would-- well, it is like a well maintained crop. Plant your idea with us, and watch your website grow!

Avoid Communication "Breakdowns!"
Get The Design You've Dreamed Of
Graphic Design....

Graphic design is a form of communicating visually using text and/or images to present information, or promote a message. The art of graphic design embraces a range of cognitive skills and crafts including typography, image development and page layout. Graphic design is applied in communication design and fine art.

The problem with many graphic artists is that they lack the listening skills necessary to turn their client's vision into reality. It's a tough job really and many of my clients come to me disappointed in their existing logos and designs. I usually don't contribute it to the lack of skill on the designer's part--but, most often, lack of listening skills. Many times ego gets in the way. Designers are artists and we all know how artists can be, right? (Hey, watch it...I'm one too!) But, with age comes wisdom and patience and lots of other things I won't discuss--and often we learn via the school of "hard knocks!"

An art within an art is learning to communicate with clients, understanding that although most clients do not understand the aspects of design, they do have a vision for their design and they generally know what they want--and they are "always right." Knowing how to ask the right questions and how to give the right advice is crucial as well--but, listening to the customer is the key to good business, no matter what type of business you run.

Bay Area Graphics & Marketing offers great graphic design services and top notch listening skills (we don't charge extra for the listening skills, either!) Give us a call today--we promise...we're always interested in what you have to say. Hire us for your graphic design team and avoid those communication breakdowns.
