Founded in 1991, the Las Colinas Symphony Orchestra has an outstanding history. One of the largest arts groups in Irving, TX, they are on a mission to enhance the quality of life in their community. Las Colinas Symphony Orchestra's cultural enrichment and education programs reach over 10,000 community members from various walks of life and socio-economic backgrounds. Their eight performance season is presented in the stunning Carpenter Performance Hall at the Irving Arts Center. Recently Las Colinas Symphony Orchestra contacted Carrollton Web Design with a request. It was time to say “we're artistic, we're fun, and we're entertaining” to their internet audience, while adding services to keep both their professional and youth orchestra members well informed. A collaborative process ensued that has resulted in a dramatic new site with features like performance excerpts available on the site, and online donations and ticket sales. Ultimately, CWD customized sister sites for Symphony Arlington and the Garland Symphony Orchestra that have been added to the project. Each of the three sites has its own look, but all are included in a suite of customized content management tools that allow synchronous updates for genuine ease of management.. Working together, we've created a bridge to the future.
Customer Project of the Month for August 2007:
Watson & Chalin was founded in 1984 with the intent of revolutionizing technology for the commercial freight and trucking industries. Their successes have led to international markets for their wide variety of truck and trailer suspension systems. Early in 2006, Watson & Chalin chose a multi-phase approach to the development and management of their company's Internet representation. At that time Carrollton Web Design created a fresh new look, a dynamic new product information system, and extensive support features for their customers. Watson & Chalin's next phase of development required a further updated look that included the addition of a 3D Product Animation and a Featured Product Slideshow. CWD also worked to create dynamic features such as a new Parts Section, and a Product Configurator to help Watson & Chalin's customers easily locate part numbers. All of these exciting upgrades were accomplished while leaving Watson & Chalin's site online and all their content in place and serving their customers. Yet another reason for our valued client's continuing success.
Customer Project of the Month for July 2007:
Founded in 1888, American Excelsior Company is the oldest company in their industry. AEC got its start producing wood excelsior, (stranded wood fibers manufactured from Aspen trees) a natural, renewable resource that is still manufactured by the company today. Their commitment to excellence and changing with the times again and again in order to manufacture and market the best and latest products for each decade continues today. American Excelsior felt that their site did not reflect their history or products. A fresh new look and direction was needed and Carrrollton Web Design was asked to help redesign their website. It was time to combine American Excelsior's three major product lines into one completely branded unit that still preserved the identity of each brand. This opportunity has been met with a site that is clearly branded as American Excelsior products and services. Yet, each of their main product types (Flexible Foam, Erosion Control, and Wood Fiber) have their own unique presence on AmericanExcelsior.com. Multiple websites now have one comprehensive home, products and services are much easier to access, and American Excelsior has once again found the way to change with the times.

Lumenate, the leading technology consulting firm in the South-Central US, specializes in Storage and Business Continuity. Their impressive growth over the past two years had left them with a website that was simply not congruent with their past accomplishments, or where they are headed. Lumenate contacted CWD with a clear vision of the content and structure they desired for their new website; and, a need to turn it all into a platform that would accurately represent their image and credibility. Our two companies embarked upon the journey that discovered exactly how Lumenate's new site should represent their expertise and experience to the world. Lumenate is now reaping the benefits of a transformed appearance combined with all the tools required to convincingly tell their story, and serve their constituency with excellence. They also enjoy enhanced internal collaboration through a custom-created web-based intranet platform Carrollton Web Design provided.

Carrollton Web Design and Hearing Aid Express worked hand-in-hand to create the experience required to demonstrate to every visitor that they are indeed in the right place to have all their needs met.

An organization with hundreds of members, the Exhibition Services and Contractors Association, or ESCA, has a huge influence in the exhibition, meeting and special events industries. ESCA's leadership chose our local Dallas web design firm to roll out powerful new features on their site. An updated look, with features such as an online membership directory and event registration, was needed to serve their membership with a high level of professionalism. We provided improved, user-friendly, education and information exchange components; along with value-added features like a smart, interactive member directory, and the ability to take surveys online.

Customer Project of the Month for March 2007:
Toga Exploration's new website is a strong statement about how expertise, excellent delivery of complex information, and good business practices can be presented with friendliness and humor. Toga had an urgent need for a website they could use to keep their investors continuously updated on individual oil and gas exploration projects. Time constraints meant that managing these project updates had to be easy, flexible, and virtually unlimited. Toga also had a need for a real time communication tool that would facilitate collaboration among all team members who were likely to be spread over wide geographical areas. Carrollton Web Design worked with Toga through the entire discovery process to arrive at an extremely useful, coordinated result that has dramatically eased their customer communication challenges. At the same time, through a collaborative effort, Toga's animated character “Gusher” came to life. Gusher cheerfully leads visitors and investors through the entire site creating an experience that is both inviting and memorable. A successful new image and powerful new communication tools for Toga!
Customer Project of the Month for February 2007:
California Business Furnishings is based out of Fresno, California and contracts to build business furnishings for a variety of industries: College & Universities; Healthcare; Government; Faith; Science & Technology; Corporations; Financial and Legal. Potential customers to their former website were not getting the full picture of the excellence that CBF has delivered for over 20 years. Customers were not able to grasp the value and uniqueness of CBF and this undoubtedly was resulting in lost sales. CBF contacted Carrollton Web Design and asked us to help them in redesigning and rebuilding their website to represent the quality of the company and the brilliance of their business furnishing designs. It was critical to CBF that their potential customers understand the deep value of their organized design, service and process. The version of their site we launched this month is merely a preview for the full effort yet to be unveiled.
Customer Project of the Month for January 2007:
FranFund, a unique consulting and service firm in Carrollton, TX, specializes in providing funding solutions to the franchise industry. In fact, FranFund is the franchising industry's only “Total Funding Solutions Provider”. Business is Booming, and FranFund needed a better way to organize communication with clients and staff via their website. An added opportunity for FranFund was their inclusion in a Franchise Funding article in the January 2007 issue of Entrepreneur magazine. It was important that their new Multi-step Customer Interview and Job Management Systems be in place before the influx of contacts they knew that article would generate. Carrollton Web Design and FranFund worked together to create the sleek look and new client and business management tools that are providing FranFund the structure to both enjoy and efficiently manage their present and future growth.

Established in 1972, Viva Architectural Hardware is a second generation family owned business with an exceptionally global sophistication. Their stylish contemporary product lines grace beautiful buildings across the United States and beyond.

Viva chose our local Dallas web design firm, and we worked in cooperation to develop a fresh look that kept Viva's branding intact. Together, we created a detailed product display system and a new gallery that shows off Viva's beautiful products and installations. These features have combined to demonstrate the scope and quality that are available at the Viva Architectural Hardware of today.
Customer Project of the Month for October 2006:
US Now offers a timely and valuable alternative to Major Medical Health Insurance in a rapidly growing segment of the insurance industry. At a time when health care insurance costs are reaching all-time highs, they have developed innovative coverage products that are accessible to vastly more workers in the United States than traditional major medical coverage. Having outsourced their prior attempt at a web site to Eastern Europe, and receiving results that were not commensurate with the quality of their enterprise, they were ready to be represented on the Web with the quality and professionalism their customers and partners needed to see. With a large volume of technical information related to their innovative insurance products, Carrollton Web design worked with US Now to organize the information in a form that was widely accessible to the segments of their audience. Innovative and original graphic design elements, such as custom 3-D animation built into eye-catching flash movies helped them customize their site for their primary audiences while conveying their own originality and attention to quality.
Customer Project of the Month for September 2006:
Homeland HealthCare is a national company dedicated to controlling employers' costs in healthcare benefit programs, benefit communication, and administration. HHC already had an impressively flexible array of affordable health benefit products suited for large groups of employees and even individuals. For their operations side, they already had a series of electronic backend systems. The last missing piece was strong, brand-supporting marketing site so the public could learn what they provided. During the course of developing this project we were able to have fun exploring the potential for their unique branding style, and help them to recruit new brokers to represent their innovative health care benefits plans.
Customer Project of the Month for August 2006:
The Lyles Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship is a business school on the campus of California State University at Fresno. Working continuously with leading central California business leaders, many of whom are on the advisory board for The Lyles Center, this organization educates and ignites the imagination of entrepreneurs everywhere. With an existing content base of archived newsletters, articles, white papers, and years of student projects, the need for a well organized site to present this information and to ensure its accessibility and updatability throughout the future was critical. Content management was key to every aspect of this project, and Carrollton Web Design's custom written systems were created and deployed to allow the leaders of The Lyles Center to communicate their message and create a valuable information resource for the business community. Since The Lyles Center and related organizations coordinate valuable lecturers and training offerings, an event calendar complete with features to register and pay for admission was developed for this project. The Lyles Center provides an education centered message and a favorite feature, the recommended reading list. This custom feature created by Carrollton Web Design, coordinates with Amazon.com's affiliate program to provide books for purchase through The Lyles Center web site. The innovative admin tools we created allow The Lyles Center to simply search for a book to include in the site. A couple of clicks later, it is displayed on the reading list page, ready for purchase and fully coordinated with Amazon.com. Overall, the admin tools on this project were very sophisticated to allow The Lyles Center the necessary control over the site. Visual design was created by Bertz-Rosa Design of Fresno.
