Brief Summary

We want our website redesigned with more color and pictures so it looks more modern. Our goal is to familiarize consumers and industry partners with our brand, strengthen our reputation with a strong web presence, have more people apply online and choose to work with us based on their first impression from our site. Our current site looks outdated and doesn't portray the innovative, established company that we are. Our new site should establish trust and build credibility with users.

    Just to double check. This is an uncoded site you're asking for, correct?

    Hi Everyone! Just a quick pointer... please down play the market news a little bit! I want it on the site as a "bonus" not the main attraction!

    Thanks! Alison

    even though the colors used in your logo scares the hell out of me (especially that you don't want it to be left apart and be more coherent with the design)........count me in , looks fun

    To all: Please read the entire briefing. It gives a lot of specifics on what we are looking for. The competitor's sites listed are primary competitors in our market and we must look better! They have a similar concept I am looking for...I just want it to pop even more :)

    To All: Change up from the current picture on our sight with the people shaking hands. Until I saw some of the new pictures, the current one looks bland. I was not a huge fan of it in the first place, but it makes some of the new designs not feel new :) Thanks for all the submissions!

    Hello AGroleau9,

    Does the "No Cost or Obligation" relate to the
    "Apply Now" portion? Or does it apply only to placing a
    call to your firm?

    Thanks!

    The no cost no obligation is for both. We do not charge a fee to talk or apply. It is something that is a general statement. A lot of people put it by something when a customer is going to act (like applying or calling) to help ease any last fears.

    I noticed a lot of other hosts put the comments in the general box. There is individual feedback in each persons submission that may help others with concepts we are looking for.

    Hey Designers! This has been an awesome contest! You are all very talented and it is so hard to pick! However, there must be a winner (not to mention I need my website!) so stay tuned and I'll be announcing a winner soon!

    I have a presentation tomorrow for these sites and the final decision is going to be on me. I will make my decision no later than Monday at 5:00 pm. I am hoping to have it done before Sunday. If it is not too much trouble, please leave all designs up until Monday. I have had many revisions made, but I really want to make sure the right one is chosen. Red, Jkersh, Murai, Deo, I feel like I have talked to you every day for a week and then we never talk again. I am curious of something... how many hours does it take (roughly) to get a design to look like this? FYI. I am going to be hosting another comp for logo design and web design in the next couple weeks. THe additional work I will need is for the mortgage company for marketing pieces etc...

    Thank you to all designers for their hard work. Special thanks to JKersh who showed a ton of enthusiasm and fine work. This was a very close contest. After much consideration my husband (owner of Capital First Home Loans, Inc.) me, and our marketing team have chosen Red Chilli's design as winner! I will be launching another contest soon for a construction company (owned by myself and my brother-in-law) as we are in need of a new logo and website. Everyone stay tuned!

    Thanks AGroleau9 for this great contest. And thanks to Jkersh and Murai, you did really provide very geat designs as well. I didn't expect to win that is because it is just too close. Very nice contest.
