White Lion builds the ultimate online brochure

May 13th, 2010

Long-time White Lion client, Austin’s own Scott, Douglass & McConnico, needed a new marketing strategy that would minimize the soft costs associated with keeping their marketing materials (i.e. firm brochure) relevant.  Also important is that as the law firm grows, so too must their marketing campaign strategy.


With these goals in mind, White Lion set out to design and program an online application to keep the firm’s brochure up-to-date and accessible.  Through an easy-to-use backend tool, the Scott, Douglass, & McConnico team can assemble custom brochures featuring any variation of practice areas and associated attorneys – making it effortless to target any potential new client.  The output of the new tool is a fully formatted PDF featuring all of the text and photos pulled form their website database. The resulting brochure can be saved to a desktop, printed and/or emailed.

Since the brochure and its dynamic contents are all Web-based, the same data is available for download by visitors of their website.  Centralizing the data makes it easy to update in one spot and ensures the brochure reflects their team’s most up-to-date information in a well-branded format.

As organizations continually seek to find ways to reduce soft costs, White Lion will continue to offer our team’s expertise to find creative ways to solve those needs.

My favorite new client quote of all times…

April 22nd, 2010

cover_270x3671I really enjoy reaching out to new clients to find out the “why” behind a client entrusting our team for their project.

Nick and Andrew — our lead discovery team — were able to earn a good sized web design and development project recently for the Texas Co-Op Power Magazine.

Reaching out to Carol Moczygemba, we were given some great feedback including what has become my favorite “new client” quote of all time.

Having the great fortune working in such a dynamic industry over the past 15 years, the quote stands out – particularly with how hard our team strives for putting integrity first.

Here is what Carol said:

Subject: Re: White Lion Project : Thank You!

Hi Steve -
I think Nick and Andrew “got it” for the most part – there were a few details we needed to clarify when they came to visit, but it seems that is being handled to our satisfaction. I don’t have a comparison point to gauge the complexity of our project against others you have developed, but I know we have expectations that may be very different from other projects simply because we’re a publication. I think both Nick and Andrew are sensitive to that and open to working with us to achieve exactly what we have in mind.

Second question – one other competitor was very close to White Lion in our evaluations – White Lion won out because we ultimately felt more comfortable working with an established team of developers, web architects and designers. We are an organization with a long history and stable team of colleagues. We value those qualities in White Lion. We were impressed with your knowledge base, but as much as that, we all had a strong sense of your integrity.

I don’t know that this answers your questions. Let me know if there’s something I missed.

Warmest regards,
Carol

Awesome stuff!
