2012 just keeps on Rockin’
So it is now half way though and it has been FIVE AWESOME years since I started One Ear Productions. I just got to say that I owe my clients a HUGE thank you for all of the fun stuff and challenges you have sent me way! This year I wanted to let you know so far how we are doing here in the office: First off we have already surpassed our Community involvement / in-kind donations from 2011. Secondly a few rough bumps had happened but I can say that they are in the PAST and all is happy and back! Again I thank you all for helping me get...

read moreWhat is SEO?
These days, it seems as if every other web designer (and website spammer) is advertising their SEO services, promising to get your site to the top of Google’s search results. So what exactly is SEO, and what can it do for you? We’ve previously discussed white hat vs black hat SEO, SEO vs SEM, and the importance of links (with follow-up here and here), but the topic changes so quickly that it’s worth following up. For as long as there have been search engines, there has been search engine optimization: trying to get your...

So I kept a secret from all of you (except Lori & Mike): I launched Madison Green Box‘s newly redesigned a while ago. Don’t be mad- but I wanted to give them their chance to toot their own horn and have fun showing all of their new site to their family, friends, and colleagues first. As most of you know I have been working with Lori & Mike since late last spring, and have done lots of print materials for their awesome small business. Up to this point my favorite project had to be the vehicle wrap, which was a first...

read moreBeyond Perks Revamp…
First off, let me tell you, I LOVE projects that allow me to challenge myself and to “one-up” my own design. I get a kick out of it, as it is tough. Most designers love their work and have a hard time when their designs no longer are needed/ or live. It does bum me out, but when I am asked to redesign, it is a challenge, as so much has changed since the first designs. There are times where I actually am excited to change things up. Beyond Perks I first learned of Beyond Perks, from Jeff at Wild Critter Media in March of...
read more9/11 Remembrance
Do you remember where you were on 9/11/2001? I do. The summer was coming to a close and fall semester had just started. A few weeks prior to the day, my father and I were having a conversation about national tragedies, and how they affect our nation. One thing he said that has forever stuck in my head all these years and on the day of: “Brit, you will face a national tragedy in your lifetime” At the time I really thought but did not say out loud “What? No, impossible, we’re grownups here”. Although I did keep that statement in...

Last month one of our clients recommended that I go with them to a networking event. It was hosted by Dane Buy Local. Due to schedule conflict and an upcoming trip, it was decided to wait until July. Think Local First As July settled down I started reseaching Dane Buy Local, as I have been actively looking for local networking businesses and clients. One thing that caught my attention is their slogan: Think Local First. For that is how I think, how can OEP better the local community? Granted my thoughts are geared towards local...
