Monday already? So much to do, but so much depends on getting information from clients. I just finished a website for Aztec Construction last week (www.aztecconstructionco.com)–it is a small scale website with just a few pages and mostly photos. But one thing I have to say is that these were really nice people to work with. They knew what they wanted, made understandable changes once the initial work was done and boy did they pay fast! If they weren’t commercial only construction, I’d look into having them do work on our house!
I’m working on finishing up a quick workshop/conference brochure for Alabama Communities of Excellence. I should have something finished for that this week sometime. I’ve made a good many additions to the Alabama’s Front Porches website (www.alabamafrontporches.com)–a website I’m very excited about because I grew up in the Black Belt. Tourism is one of the answers for the black belt economy (certainly not the only answer, but it is a cost-effective way to bring in some economic development and tourism is clean, non-polluting economic development). There is still a long way to go in developing this website, but we’ve got almost 50 different attractions in the 11 county region listed with photos for most of the attractions. And, we’ve gotten some hits from interesting locations including Boeing and Northrop Grumman. Interesting evidence that tourism and a positive spin on quality of life issues makes an impact on economic development.
Much more work to do this week, including working on the Alabama Byways Wayfinding workshop to be held next month, working on a architect website and the usual work on my ongoing projects (just made several updates to my Your Town Alabama blog: www.yourtownalabama.org/blog).
