ProHome International Retains THINK-TANK to Design New Web Site
Posted by: | Comments
ProHome International, LLC is the largest post-construction warranty company in the country. The owners, Jack and Sue Salmans, wanted to substantially upgrade the “look and feel” of their site to match the professionalism for which they are known. Additionally, they wanted to be able to change the site themselves as franchisees changed addresses, phone numbers, etc. So, they asked THINK-TANK to create a WordPress site for them. We were able to accomplish ALL of this over a period of several months. The project included adding new updated videos in HD format as well as introducing a new way to show testimonials. You can see it HERE.
There’s no doubt that TEDTalks have brought innovation, exploration, science, art, technology and the joy of learning to the world…for FREE. Well, their new concept, TED-Ed “flip,” ratchets the notion of interactive teaching and learning (for both professional educators as well as the rest of us) to a new high. Check out this introductory video to see if you might be able to use it for your next lesson, presentation or report.

Even though the “new” iPad has been released for just a few weeks now, there is a video that seems to demonstrate the potential for new “flex” displays. Obviously, what is shown appears to be an imaginative “made-to-look-real” demo, but the potential for innovation appears to be coming sooner rather than later. See what you think by watching the video. Click the graphic to see what it’s all about.
LeeWood Retains THINK-TANK for New Web Site
Posted by: | Comments
Several years ago, LeeWood (previously known as LeeWood Homes) asked us to design a new identity for them. This included a new logo and printed materials. They were so pleased with these results that they recently retained us to design their new web site. One of the key elements was that they wanted to be able to make basic updates themselves. We have a lot of expertise with this type of web design. If you are interested in this for your business, let us know.
If You are a Job Seeker, Stand out from the Crowd with a Unique Resumé
Posted by: | Comments
If you look around the THINK-TANK site for just a few minutes, you’ll see that we are all about “Unique Marketing Ideas to Set You Apart(sm).”
We have long advocated the use of resumés that break the mold of boring and “me-tooism (is that a word?).”
Now, a new firm is specializing in designing head-snapping resumés with some cool-looking designs. If you are wanting to stand out in the crowded job seeking marketplace, you should see what they offer HERE.
As a real estate broker for nearly 25 years and with MANY real estate clients who have used THINK-TANK over the years to assist them with branding and marketing consultation, I have also been a fan of Apple for a long time. At the time the iPad was first introduced, I was fascinated with the potential for real estate agents who are more mobile than ever before and not so tied to their offices. After all, agents make their livings being out in the field with prospects. Was this idle speculation or is it coming to fruition?
Apple just profiled a “boutique” real estate firm in Austin, Texas which has embraced the concept full bore. See the details and watch the video HERE.
