The New IR Smartt Website
Motivation
IRSmartt.com Version #1 focused on a minimalistic design aimed at a corporate audience.
Our marketing strategy has evolved to include a major focus on content creation and blogging.
The original site design was “soft-launch” orientated and didn’t plan for this explosion of content.
Our graphic design team was itching for a new project to take on using Twitter Bootstrap
IRSmartt.com Version #1
Home Page
Location-based branding. With shots of the the Colorado River just to the north of the city of Austin.
More focus on sectional links. With featured images pointing to services and company information.
‘Who We Are’ now more prominent, including an explanation of our mission and values front and center.
Retained focus on industry news and How-To articles written by our Social Media team.
E.g. Home Page
Our Services
The Our Services pages have been simplified with a more prominent 2nd navigation.
We’ve focused on branding services visually to create recognition throughout the site and Social Media.
Services have been slimmed down. We now focus on 4 core services, the rest have been let go.
No more ‘Industries’, at least not right now. When 2.1 comes out in October, we’ll add a combined ‘Case Studies’ and ‘Industries’ section.
