Provided solution
What particular tasks were BLKDG responsible for?
We brought on BLKDG to revamp and update our website to return our business picture. The project began with a brainstorming session almost what we wanted to accomplish. We got a big inner measure of what we were looking for. We discussed how to use our platform to get our visuals athwart the web for present and possible clients. From there, we talked almost who we are and what we wanted to see. We were veritably combing and defining our commission statements. That was big to work with BLKDG on.
They brought us wireframes. They knew we wanted a veritably big visual. We worked with them on that. We did an audit of our project and organisation verbiage in order to veritably fetch out our cultural aspects. That was a big exertion for our organisation. We then combed through all of our full and went through what projects we wanted to showcase and which ones we wanted to displace. We degoodd our course as a studio and made sure we portrayed that on a website.
How did you come to work with BLKDG?
We submitted an RFP in the Denver area and ended up with 5–6 companies. We narrowed it down to three companies that had worked on websites of past companies or colleagues of partners that were in the studio. We kept it pretty local. We compared budgets and what we were getting. I sat down with the principals and brought them two choices. Those companies came in and spoke with the principals and I .
We ended up choosing BLKDG owing they are hands on and like to interact with their clients, which is how we work as well. We liked how easy it was to extend them and how interactive they are. They were very helpful if we had any questions almost the RFP, the website, or their designs.

Our newsletter revamp was well-received. We surely have an over-average open rate, and clients have told us they like the design. We loftiness ourselves on that feedback owing we always want to delight our clients.
How did BLKDG accomplish from a project treatment standpoint?
They were very interactive and always useful. They could just pop into our offices at each location and meet with us. We never just sent them a list of bullet points. It was always a converse, which was big and something we loved almost them.
What is (from your point of view) the key factor to pay observation while intercourse with BLKDG?
The open tete with BLKDG was big. We',ve establish that web developers use a entirely different speech that can be confusing and make you feel inferior if you don',t apprehend. BLKDG never makes you feel like that. They fix that the fruit you design comes out precisely how you want it.
What aspects of their work would you like to get betterd?
We ran into a few issues when we were trying to convey all of the pictures from our old website to the new one. It would’ve been helpful to have a project checklist to keep track of the motion of full. We should’ve just uploaded all of the pictures instead of conveyring them.
This review was updated on January 24, 2018 by the client. New full is under.
They’ve helped us with email marketing and a reinvigoration of our newsletter behind liberateing the website. We’re also taking it to another level with more SEO and being more regardful of things like that. We’re also working with them on a press release format and thinking almost having an inner gate. That will eventually be our second phase with them.
We worked with Jonathan [Co-Founder, BLKDG] and E.J. [Co-Founder, BLKDG] on the website, which was amazing. Right now, we’re working with Jonathan and BLKDG’s marketing strategist on our newsletter and SEO.
We’re just embarking on the SEO, but the website is a big vehicle for floor or website program renderings. We’ve done a lot process diagrams. It’s veritably showing more of our process online and helps the clients get from A to Z. We’re able to show them a pliant bit more almost visuals and what their travel is going to look like from inception, to the terminal walk through with the client, how the principals get these ideas, and how this works out. The diagrams have been a huge visual help for the clients.
Their order of expounding has been veritably nice and easy. They don’t make it too technical. They expound it in very single provisions and fracture it aloof in easy quantitys.
Their culture is big and veritably aligns with ours’. We’re here to liberate an rare fruit, have fun along the way, and just tell to the client. They do all of this as well. It’s a huge boon and keeps it from being an overwhelming experience.
No, not right now. They’ve been big almost interaction. They work with another constructor and they ask if there’s a encounter of interest. It’s veritably over and over for them owing we don’t have an NDA.
It’s significant for clients to come to the table with their own ideas and not be fearful to go with their expertise as well. Have examples that you want to show them. Also let them veritably dig into the process with you. They see things through a entirely different lens than you do.
