When creating a website there are 3 things that make it effective. 

The first is Branding.  Most likely you’ve put a lot of thought into your business or organization. You have an overall image you want to convey.

How do people feel when they see your company logo? Inspired? Efficient? Confidant? Happy?

You need this image to be portrayed by your website. In today’s world your website usually is the first, and maybe only, impression clients ever get of your business. Whether they choose to work with you or not, make sure that impression is accurate.

Every business or organization is its own animal. Make sure your site has the look and feel of who you are and what you stand for. 

Wanted to share a resource with the Oklahoma small business community.  This website, OKcommerce.gov is really quite good. 

It is an incredible resource for both start-up entrepreneurs and seasoned small business owners.  On this website, you'll find resources for tax-law, grant-writing, and all the latest news related to your success as a business owner in Oklahoma. 

When we were starting up Three-Nine Media, this resource proved invaluable.  There is a special section for owner's needing clarification on the process involved in making your business a legal, state-registered, tax-paying business. 

Save yourself some time, money, and frustration by checking out this resource!

If you've performed a Google search recently, you probably  noticed a bit of difference in the way your search results were displayed.  This is due to Google bringing yet another innovation to the table called Google Instant. 

Instant searches are not necessarily new.  If you are a Facebook user, you are probably familiar with the way your typing seems to bring up a list of 'predictions'. 

I used to look at smart phones somewhat cynically and somewhat enviously.  Even thought I am a young business leader and certainly fall into the tech-savvy Generation-Y, I only recently added "smart-phone" to my repertoire of electronic assets. 

I will never go back.
