Greetings, and welcome.

Feel free to tool around...see anything you like?

Case 1: 3Cstudio (take a peek under the hood)

what's going on at 3Cstudio...

a

A site that is Clear. Clean. Concise. (3 Cs, anyone?)
3Cstudio seeks to implement these three terms tangibly in all web development by (hopefully) living by this tri-credo. Where can you benefit?

b

Direct integration of the 3Cstudio blog, e-blasts, Twitter, etc. into the site structure... Da Boss said to, "Make it so"... so I did... or shall. Think she'll settle for me promising to do it for clients at least?

c

A... B... C... "C says Kuh, unless it is a soft-C", informs Da Boss.
Contact begins with the letter C. If a, b, c, d, and/or e kick-starts your Creativity, please contact 3Cstudio.

d

3C design objectives: Better accessibility and adherence to web standards, as well as better searchability and being more search-engine-friendly. Oh, and I forgot to add a little usability to the toolbelt...

e

More use of Web 2.0 features (we'll call them "e-tools"):
e-blasts, blogs, photo albums, forums/wikis, collaboration-stations & hubs, comprehensive stats, self-managed e-mail, control-panel hosting, e-commerce, PHP/Javascript, databases...

Case on-point: Frank Speyers

Frank Speyers has a great eye for design... so naturally he chose 3Cstudio to help him put together a painting portfolio! :)

OK, so that may be hyperbole... suffice it to say Frank is rather pleased with his custom WordPress install that is now completely D.I.Y. Additionally, his site now will also function as a starting point to introduce his incoming classes at Calvin College to what a CMS can do for them, entering the ever-changing world of tools in web design & development.

Case 1: FruitBasket-Flowerland

a hearty kick in the [e]plants...

Most everything about Flowerland CEO Rick Vuyst is punny... but for Rick it's no joking matter when it comes to properly informing people on best practices for care of their lawn and landscape.

The entire Flowerland team takes great care to insure its customers are equipped with the very best info, tools and products -- and now their website is yet another powerful tool in their belts!

Case 2: Dr. John's Candies

the good (tooth) doctor is in...

and has a Sugar Free Candy Store, with tooth-friendly treats for all to enjoy!
Dr. John's Candies is now sporting over 100 candy types and flavors and has a customized Candy Store for easy, secure ordering online.

Integrate the cart design, a Twitter feed, and informative content, and the good Doctor is poised to bethe top sugar free candy specialist with their unique offerings in HSH (sugar free), Xylitol, and Herbal Candies!

Case 3: Sam Glenn & EverythingAttitude.com

GoPositive!... absolutely.

Sam Glenn, Inc. gets a comprehensive makeover for the better.
Sam spends his days motivating and encouraging people to "choose to make their best life ever"... at work, home, and at play (all of which seem to intersect at some point, right!?).

This dynamic speaker/author needed to have his many sites and online materials "collated" -- consider it done. Socially connected? Check. All sorts of other cool features? You betcha.

Case 4: Van Wyk Risk & Financial Management - UPDATE: 06/01/10

quacking ducks meet staying dogs.

No strayin' goin' on here... Van Wyk clients come to them for good.
This innovative insurer keeps 3Cstudio hoppin' to integrate their latest unique approach for declaring their ambition to underwrite the underinsured -- all with a warm smile and a personal relationship... Here's to each of Van Wyk's 25 "best year(s) ever" and many more to come. 06/01/10 - revamp underway!

Case 5: You?
