Rocky Mountain Wireless (Authorized AT&T Retailer)
Rocky Mountain Wireless recently completed the first stage of it's rebranding campaign with I Spy Design. I Spy developed the new identity and tagline for the Montana-based wireless provider with the idea of reinforcing that they are a locally owned and operated company. The updated logo and the new tagline; "For the way you live", in combination with the use of local Montana imagery would be the foundation for their new brand identity. The updated logo represents a very distilled version of a mountain peak and incorporates the elements of an arrow that conveys that they are a forward thinking and cutting edge wireless provider.






Katalin Green Event Design - Wedding Planner
"I Do". It's a very simple yet powerful statement and we wanted to incorporate these two very meaningful words into the new identity. The "brand bug" as the logo is now referred contains the clients initials surrounded by a circle or ring. The use of these few simple design elements creates a very clean, elegant and modern image for this Montana wedding and event designer.

FACEBOOK! FACEBOOK, FACEBOOK!
The momentum of this social media giant continues to grow but what does that mean for the small business owner with limited time and resources?

No matter how you look at it Facebook should be on your daily "To Do" list. Whether it's creating questions or surveys, providing special offers, sharing content, promoting a new product, or just posting a personal item about yourself or your business...the idea is to engage your audience and create a dialog with your fans. If you're new to social media this can seem a bit overwhelming but if you develop a strategy that is simple, manageable and above all content driven, you'll be able to increase your fan base and improve your brand.

1. Make a list of 4-5 items that you know you will be manage and spread those posts out over the week. Make sure you follow through with each task consistently.

2. Provide information or comments that will facilitate interaction with your fans and encourage them to contribute content. Quality interactions with your fan base makes your presence much more inviting and personal.

3. Start a contest or provide deals on your products and services. Remember, you still need to promote your own products and services.

4. Use the new feature called "questions" to gain insight into what your fans are looking for.

5. Provide content from other resources. If you find an interesting video or an article to content your fans might find useful post the link on your Facebook wall and give that company a little promotional plug. This will encourage people to do the same for you. It's not about the hard sell. It's all about keeping people engaged.
