VOLTAGE DOES DRUPAL DEVELOPMENT IN DENVER

Here at VTG, we find ourselves turning to Drupal more and more as our CMS of choice. But sometimes you gotta ask yourself, “Why Drupal?”

We’ve been asking ourselves that same question, and here is what we’ve learned:

Drupal is a powerful, robust platform–right out of the box. With the release of Drupal 7, users now have the most flexible, easiest to use version of Drupal to date. Some of the new features we have been leveraging on our latest Drupal sites are Features, (which allows developers to use a collection of different Drupal entities into a module that they can update), Views, the new administrative UI, new support for WYSIWYG editors, improved drag-and-drop admin tasks, an enhanced log-in system, a more secure password system, a new ‘shortcuts’ admin tool to access favorite sections of the admin, and a few more.

VOLTAGE has designed and launched a new look and website for The Royal Gorge Bridge and Park. Along with our colleagues Vladimir Jones, we’ve taken the Royal Gorge’s web presence to new heights, and depth – and that’s pretty deep. The Royal Gorge Bridge is one of the world’s highest suspension bridges – hanging 956 feet high and spanning a quarter mile across the canyon. The park is an experience unlike any destination you’ll ever experience with 360 acres and 21 rides, shows and attractions to explore. The site features the parks excitement, history and allows visitors to buy tickets online, get directions, or surf key information on their mobile devices through an optimized mobile version of the site.

Fresh Produce Clothing is a women’s lifestyle brand known and loved by women ages 6 months to 60-plus for lush colors, year-round sensibility, and simply inspired design.

A $50 million dollar company in it’s third decade – Fresh Produce has retail stores in La Jolla, Beach Haven, Martha’s Vineyard, Santa Barbara and other exclusive seashore resorts in North America and the Caribbean.

VOLTAGE Advertising & Design has developed a new look for Fresh Produce’s 2010/11 campaign – Live Life, Enjoy Color. The new look references the organic feel of homegrown farmers markets and introduces the brand to a younger audience.

Along with SmartClick Adwords the new design and online marketing strategy has garnered tremendous sales results in the digital space for the brand.

VOLTAGE designed the Getaway by Color sweepstakes – that featured four colorful trips facebook followers could win. The contest added 6,000 fans to their fan base and 4,500 entries.

Weekly email marketing blasts that were designed by VOLTAGE have dramatically increased open rates and click through rates.

We have enjoyed working with a brand that focuses on so much positive energy and the coastal lifestyle. It’s definitely rubbed off on the design team – going from predominantly black attire to varying shades of gray, even an army green shirt has popped up around the office.

Thanks Fresh Produce for the good vibe!

The 2010 Umpqua Catalog has hit the streets.

W.W. Reynolds is Boulder’s premier real estate development and professional property management firm. They currently own and manage over 2.8 million square feet of office, retail, and industrial property along the Colorado front range. After over 40 years of development in and around Boulder, The Reynolds name has become iconic for progress and service and was ready to update it’s brand. VOLTAGE worked with W.W. Reynolds to update it’s signature logo, design a new website, and develop marketing materials and a new marketing message.

The W.W. Reynolds signature logo is widely recognizable around the boulder area, and needed to be maintained. We updated the logo, which is founder Bill Reynolds original signature, redrawing the letterforms to economize space, look updated and refreshed and work better across printed and web applications.

After cleaning up the typography – we created a custom lizard icon from some VOLTAGE lightning bolts and it stuck. The icon represents the nickname the company is know by – A Raging Thunder Lizard Company – and has also become the symbol of the companies continued emphasis on sustainable building and earth friendly growth and development.

VOLTAGE Designed and built a new website for W.W. Reynolds. The new dynamic website features a custom built backend which allows the Reynolds team to market and manage properties internally. The system lets you upload properties, tag each property for SEO, automatically locates the properties on the integrated google maps within the site, and includes the property with it’s available listings in a property database. The design is driven to reflect the seasonal beauty of Boulder and drive potential tenants to the many properties W.W. Reynolds owns and manages.

W.W. Reynolds has also  announced it will offer third party management. To promote their new services VOLTAGE designed brochures and a pocket folder marketing the companies expertise. Read more about W.W. Reynolds new services in the Boulder County Business Report. The brochures and marketing materials were printed on a New Leaf Imagination paper stock, made with 100% recycled fiber and 100% post-consumer waste, processed chlorine free, and manufactured with electricity that is offset with Green-e® certified renewable energy certificates. How’s that for Green! It’s almost so green it’s yellow : )

The Reynolds Team has been amazing to work with and  it’s no wonder they provide the best of Boulder’s commercial development and real-estate services. VOLTAGE is proud to be associated with such well respected companies and clients in Boulder County.
