Ottawa web designers offering custom website design and more
A web development and IT management firm with a difference - and a passion for cycling
Our small core team has a long track record of delivering excellent results for clients from the business and not-for-profit sectors.
With a focus on skilled listening and long-term relationships, we deploy skills in websites and communications, databases, business analysis and project management.
We also make use of the skills of a wider group of trusted suppliers in the areas of flash development, graphic design and IT infrastructure.
Earle Barber, Technical Development
Earle has been in the IT industry for over 30 years, including ten years of experience in direct marketing. With core skills in project management, database design, user support and business intelligence, Earle brings a lot to the table every time we sit down with a client to discuss their project. Earle is constantly focused on achieving the simplest solution for maximum impact.
Outside of business hours, Earle is a keen cyclist (he's the one on the cool Canadian recumbent), gardener and all-round problem solver. Together he and Dagne are raising a young family and they have built their business to maximise the time they have for their family, a theme they find resonates well with every client they have worked with.
Dagne Forrest, Content Development
Dagne has been writing and editing content, specifying design and development, and managing websites for the past decade. Dagne has special experience of the philanthropic and not-for-profit sectors, but as a business owner is equally comfortable in a wide range of business environments. She loves the day to day contact with clients and helping them to meet their goals on the web.
When not at work, Dagne can be found cycling, growing or cooking food, and writing on her blog (which owes a lot to her bike, her garden and her children).
Wayne Mitchell, Branding and Graphic Design
Over the last twenty years in the creative field, Wayne has had a passion for corporate identity and branding development coupled with a strong commitment to achieving the goals of clients. His experience ranges from designing new identities, trade show displays, marketing materials and web sites for small- and medium-sized business from Toronto to Montreal, and, of course, in Ottawa.
Outside of the office, Wayne enjoys daily walks with his two dogs, working out at Marshall's gym every week, and he, too, greatly appreciates every opportunity to ride his bicycle!
Did you know our first meeting is always free?
No kidding! We don't tend to respond to blanket RFPs, because rarely does any organization have its head sufficiently around its requirements to request quotes that will enable them to compare apples with apples.
We encourage all prospective clients to take a couple of hours to sit down with us to get into the nitty gritty of their project, as well as to share their larger goals and plans. From this, we can usually work towards a relevant and appropriately costed proposal.
If nothing else, prospective clients walk away with some excellent, free ideas. In the best case scenarios, we discover that we'd work really well together and well...you can visit our Portfolio page to see what we can accomplish.
