Branding

We could’ve designed a kick-ass T-shirt. We could’ve slapped our logo on some sweet mugs and coasters. But would simple swag be enough to truly represent what Urban Influence is all about? Would that alone be enough of a gift to satiate our rabid fan base? No, of course it wouldn’t. They’re not easily satiated. 

We’re very excited to announce the launch of the new Mary’s Place website, which went live last Friday, May 11, 2012. As a non-profit homeless resource center for women, the new site embodies the Mary’s Place mission of empowering and equipping women with the tools to move out of homelessness. 

We've been busy working on some exciting new websites that we can't wait to show off. Until then–think medical, guns and shopping. Sounds like a lovely mix, right? Don't worry, as this will be the only time they'll be mentioned alongside each other.

We are truly humbled. There’s really no other way to put it. The fact that the city of Seattle would spontaneously repaint its most iconic symbol, the Space Needle, in a shade of Urban Influence orange has left us speechless.

I’m a sucker for old beer ads from the 1960s and 1970s – this much I’ve known for a while. Until today though, I couldn't quite pinpoint why these ads resonate with me. 

So nice to get the blogging itch again, let's continue along with something nice and easy on the eyes–shoes. A fluff piece, maybe, but I like it anyway.

Nike once again proves why its the most innovative company in athletic equipment and sporting style with its latest announcement, the ultra-lightweight HTM Flyknit running shoes…

Hey all, we've been extremely busy and haven't had much time to update our site, however we did manage to squeak in two new projects for Endurance and AdoptUSKids. TV expert Courtney Hansen leads the new Endurance campaign, so make sure you click on over to the portfolio and check it out in full. There is also plenty of eye candy for AdoptUSKids, the Nation's leading adoption and foster care resource so go get your sugar fix on.

We've been all kinds of busy but are planning on some much needed updates to the portfolio and some other big changes around the site, so stay tuned!

Hello everybody! It's seems like it's been so long since I've posted here. Does anybody still read our posts?

SIC 2011 just wrapped up yesterday, and I spent the day going to talks by speakers from the worlds of UX, SEO, marketing, and branding. Like any convention, there were a lot of great talks going on simultaneously--it was hard to choose which ones to go to!

I've summarized some of what was talked about below, spanning mobile, design, SEO, and networking. Hopefully you get something out of it!
