Marketing

Hello Sean

Another new addition to the team! We’re so happy to have Sean Rom around to write copy, make use of his extensive production skills and you know, make inappropriate jokes.

Let’s catch up

It’s been a long time since we last spoke. We’ve been busy building websites: designing them, coding them, writing content for them and sending them into the big wide world. Here’s a rundown of some of our newest developments.

What is graphic design…and where is it headed?

In non-geek speak, graphic design is used to assist businesses in developing communications tools to represent them. Telling the crowds we are engineers or artists is a little misleading, we are in the business of communicating business. User-interface is becoming more commonly user-friendly and communications are being unified to send consistent messages to the consumer. Graphic designers make messages easier to digest and unify business messages.

Joining the super nerd club

It seemed like it only was a week ago when I started this job but time sure has flown! It’s already been six weeks! So as a newbie girl here, this is my first contribution to the Orion Creative blog.

Why should Santa use Email Direct Marketing?

Good question, I am glad I asked it.

With the kids these days streaming their hip hop rap music, dancing at their all night disco clubs and finding out about these all online, it is hard for someone like Santa, in his workshop, surrounded by elves, carving away at the little wooden toys to keep up with the speedy demand from his clients (or hip hop listening disco dancing children).

Is website content as important as design?

Mother’s are always right, aren’t they? Growing up, my mum frequently used to tell me: “It’s not what you say. It’s how you say it.” When we start the process of building or redesigning a site at Orion, our holistic view is based on a belief in the importance of that proven adage.

When it comes to websites, what you say – in this case being the design of your site, and how you say it – the copy/content and functionality, play equal parts in the success, or otherwise, of your website.
