Change your GPS and update your digital address books, Studiobanks has up and moved its offices! Don’t worry, we’re still in the same general area; we’re just a tad over a mile from our old digs. Our home base is now Suite 310 of the historic Electric Supply and Equipment Company Building at 421 Penman Street. Classy!
Why the change? Two words followed by many exclamation marks: more space!!!!! We’re now occupying 3,500 square feet which means we can all stretch our arms out in either direction and NOT hit someone else in the face. Good news for office politics, bad news for office pranksters.
Once upon a time in a creative land far, far away, account managers were viewed simply as project planners and not creative-types. These account managers were expected to know about budgets, timelines and client relations, with very little input on creative concept, design and implementation. But as the creative world evolved into a digital-centric universe, so did the role of its account managers. Digital producers emerged with an entirely new playbook, or shall I say, storybook.
My, what big ideas you have! Today's digital producers are active participants during concepting meetings, thinking strategically and contributing big ideas. We bring a unique skill set that combines project management expertise and a strong passion for digital marketing. Digital producers need not be shy about sharing ideas among designers and developers. After all, collaborating with a team is far better then strolling through the dark, scary forest all alone.
Mirror, mirror on the wall... As the liaison between clients and the creative team, digital producers must be sharp communicators. Just like the magical mirror in Snow White, delivering delicate news is sometimes part of the job description. Perhaps a client is hesitant to trust a remarkable design concept, or a developer wants to incorporate an ubercool feature that just isn't in the budget. Digital producers must tread lightly as they carefully determine who truly is the fairest of them all.
Our team recently designed a new website for Edgeview Partners, an independent investment bank specializing in mergers and acquisitions. The site better represents the firm's leadership, experience and expertise serving the unique M&A advisory needs of middle-market clients.
"After becoming an independent firm last year, we had the opportunity to revamp our marketing strategy and website," said Grant Hamilton, Edgeview Partners' vice-president. "Studiobanks was our guide and partner through the entire process, which led to a new website that far exceeded our expectations."
The highly competitive nature of Edgeview Partners' business demanded a clean, professional website that communicated trust and credibility. Our team worked hard to ensure the tone of the site directly relates to the business it represents and offers the functionality users need to gather information quickly and easily.
