Pedemonte Cellars
www.pedemontecellars.com
The successful new small winery, Pedemonte Cellars, does not have a tasting room or public tour. Virtually all of its sales are generated via the web and word of mouth. As is true of many small wineries producing superb wine, but low case volume, developing a devoted following is critical to long-term success.
The website was developed to coordinate with email blasts timed to generate orders in advance of the release of a new vintage. It is also an image building vehicle, appealing to the sophisticated wine buyer. It employs our EpiStore Shopping Cart System, and features some entertaining Flash effects.

Casa Caballo de Blanco
www.casacaballoblanco.com
This jungle lodge in Belize presented a number of challenges from a website development standpoint. Any lodge on the edge of the jungle must attract a unique clientele, one which is motivated by a nature-inspired vacation.
Accordingly, we worked closely with our client to identify the target customer, and design the website to enhance the sense of exploration and adventure. Through some unusual custom-developed flash animation techniques, we created a travel-related site complete with tour itineraries, travel photos, environmental information and an atmosphere immersion in the natural world.

Sonoma Promotional Solutions
www.sonomapromo.com
Selling literally hundreds of products used for promotional purposes by its clients, Sonoma Promotional Solutions needed a new website that more closely reflected their position as one of the leaders in the promotional merchandise industry. Their customers are other businesses and organzations, meaning they are straight-forward and ready to make purchase decisions.
Accordingly, we developed a variety of tools to help customers search for product and to quickly review the many categories of products available for order. The presentation is attractive and user-friendly, not overly complicated and presents an unambiguous and easy-to-use navigation system. We also developed and manage the Google/Yahoo advertising program for this client.

The flash segments include user controls to allow for pausing, resuming, and reversing the flow of images. Otherwise, the site is an example of a fully dynamic website development model using programming to build content as the page is requested. The display area is fixed and page scrolling occurs within the fixed website display area.

Resource Dynamics
www.resourcedynamics.org
Government agencies are excellent at collecting and tabulating data, but not particularly good at communicating it clearly and meaningfully to others. As issues of energy and water use become more important and discussed, the Sonoma County Water Agency came to us for help in presenting their data in ways that would be more interesting and dynamic.
The site has developed into a rich and deep web environment, with fully functional semantic web features. We have had the opportunity to work with the Los Alamos National Laboratory's Earth Sciences and Environment Division and have incorporated many unique and highly advanced programming features and functions. Energy related projects by organizations and agencies across the United States are now featured, and project groups can participate with each other using social networking tools.
Our Portfolio
Since 1996 we have developed scores of websites, each one unique and created to meet the specific marketing needs of each client. By working with color, design, language and a well-thought-out and non-ambiguous user interface, our websites emphasize precisely those aspects of character that closely match their target markets.
Accordingly, our finished websites look and function differently from each other, just as most clients are quite different than each other. This is why we do not use pre-made website solutions that are generic in nature; our effort is focused on identifying the nature of a client's needs and plans, and creating a website that meets them perfectly.
