Web Consultation

Everyone needs a little consultation sometimes, and Evolv finds that our best work is done in-person communicating with our clients and getting to know your needs in detail. This way we can find out what does or doesn't make sense for you and take the proper steps to help you evolve over time.

• Do you have basic questions on how to get started?
• Do you need someone to review your existing website?
• Do you want to know how to edit your website?
• Do you know how to optimize your website for the search engines?

Evolv offers a free initial consultation of 2 hours. If more time is needed then charges will apply.

Websites

Websites should not only showcase your work but provide needed information to your clients and most importantly sell your product/service. The web design should be elegant in style and organized in structure while the web development should be simple in navigation, friendly to search engines, and easy to edit and use. Below are the steps Evolv uses in developing your website:

Phase 1: Initial Consultation
Phase 2: Submittal of Estimate & Contract Signing
Phase 3: Research & Design
Phase 4: Development
Phase 5: Final Revisions and Approval
Phase 6: Training (if requested)

Evolv also provides web hosting including email accounts, flash animation, and employs basic SEO coding techniques for search engine optimization.

e-Newsletters

E-newsletters are a great way to keep your clients up-to-date while encouraging continual business with them. They also cost 90% less than traditional print mailings, are easy to update, and the distribution process is faster and more efficient, while remaining environmentally-friendly by decreasing transportation and printing emissions. However, you need to present your e-newsletter as professionally as your website, with the same branding and content targeted towards what your clients are looking for.

Things to look for in an e-newsletter are:

• Consistency of design across all email clients
• Forward-to-a-Friend and Subscription Management
• Reporting, Polls, Calendar, and Customization Tools
• Search Back Issues/Archive page

Evolv also helps research, select, and train you on the best e-newsletter service that fits your needs affordably.

About

Throughout time, I have adapted my life and career to the world around me, always progressing forward in the natural manner in which we grow, learn and seek. That is how Evolv came into existence — because the web and its technology are changing so fast, we MUST evolve our business around it. I also have found that most small businesses cannot afford the corporate rates offered by larger web companies, and because Evolv is a small company with low overhead costs, we can work with most small business budgets yet offer a more personable and quality experience.

My name is Steffi Rausch and I am Evolv's sole owner, web designer & developer for over 10 years. My background comes from the marriage of a Math Education degree and a strong familial Art background. My ability to teach clients as well as manage and organize projects on tight deadlines comes from years of experience in various realms of the industry including education, online messaging solutions, and newspaper production.
