Fort Smith Arkansas Branding Company
We've been working on some really cool projects with a local branding company. I'll share some of these websites with everyone once they go live in the next few days. This blog post is to give some credit to a company that excels at creating brands that capture the target audiences' imagination, mind, and emotion. This small company here in Arkansas is doing some very big things.
Cameron Clement is really the man behind the curtain at C3 Brandworks. Although he is a visionary and creative to the 11th power, he still knows how to research, discover, and perceive the details of a business that lead to prosperity in its market. Basically if you want to create a company image that people will recognize for all eternity, something that is positive and has an immediate and long lasting impact on sales Cameron is your man.

I'm blogging to you live from the Arkansas Governor's Conference on Tourism in Rogers Arkansas. Things are just getting started with a motivational speaker giving a lecture right now.

We've met some interesting people already and I must say that the Embassy Suites up here is an awesome facility. They just rolled out the coffee so I need to go. I'll make another post later.

Kirkham Systems is going to be attending the Arkansas Governors Conference On Tourism this year. Arkansas holds this conference to spread ideas and strategies on marketing. We see a need for better web design for promoting Arkansas' parks, cities, and destinations, not just outside the state, but within the state as well. If you are looking for new internet ideas and a new direction our websites are what you need.
At Kirkham Systems, we don't start designing a site by looking at a business card or a logo and figuring out what we can tell your customer about you. We start by figuring out what your customer would like to see from your site. How can we draw your customer into an experience on the web that is second only to really being there.
Many websites in Arkansas are designed very well, and look very nice, but don't show up when searched for. Our sites are designed with the latest in technology to show up high in search engines such as Google and Yahoo. This is important because it is always better to have a million visitors to a site that looks like it cost a hundred dollars than 100 visitors to a site that cost one million. Of course your website will be designed by one of our elite graphic designers and will be visually impressive.

A Local Fort Smith POS Software company has been competing nationally with companies like Microsoft for many years. Recently they decided they would compete nationally on the internet as well. That meant moving up the search engines. Google and the others are where people go when they are looking for something on the internet. When you look for a POS software company on the web most people would go to Google and type "POS software" into the search box. Prophetline is competing nationally on this search engine thanks to Kirkham Systems Search engine optimization. If you want to compete nationally for anything on the web you need to call us and ask us what it takes.

- If they are unwilling to adapt to an open source application to meet your needs, then they will be unwilling to adapt anything else to best accomplish your goals.
- They are not interested in saving you money, so where else will you pay more than you need?
- They are concerned about their ability to handle a bug or two that may come up in an open source application. This person must not be confident in their ability to fix bugs. Bugs are found in ALL applications and are at least something you can fix if you need to in an open source solution

Is your company's website making you money? Every Year a larger and larger percentage of products are purchased online. Last week I spent 80 dollars on Christmas locally, and over 200 online. If your website isn't selling products for you it is probably for one of two reasons.
1. No one can find your site. The internet is similar to the physical world of business. In Fort Smith you have main roads where retailers can usually count on lots of traffic. On the internet these main roads also generate traffic and if you aren’t their then you have to spend a lot more on advertising. These roads are Google, MSN, and Yahoo. If your web site isn't showing up in the top 10 when people search for your product you should call us right now.
2. Your website isn't designed properly. Either it doesn't effectively present your product to the customer, or it is to confusing to use. We create websites that use simple navigation and nice clean designs to create a site that focuses on your product or service, not on the site.
