About Our Client

Resilience United was founded to make community resilience more proactive, understandable, customizable and ultimately, more achievable. More than bouncing back from adversity, their goals are to make prevention a key element of resilience and to help communities deal with stressors such as natural disasters, community violence, mental health, and climate change.

Presented Challenges

  • Resilience United wanted us to distill their years of research and organize it into an easy-to-understand resource which would help key community stakeholders make their communities more resilient.

Our Approach

  • Make the program easy to action - Knowing that most of the website visitors would not be able to read through all of the research, the Resilience United team wanted to organize their program online into an easily digestible format.
  • Resonate with key target audiences - In order to ensure key target audiences knew this site would be actionable them, we highlighted the 4 main ways the program is used (natural disasters, community violence, mental health, and climate change) and created case studies.
  • Help visitors find exercises to do in their communities - Through search features, filters, and instinctive navigation options we created a section which allows visitors to exercises (PDFs, Videos, and Word Doc) created by Resilience United to facilitate resilience building in communities across the country.
  • Make the site feel interactive - Through a number of different elements, making browsing on the site feel like a compelling, interactive experience was a focus.
  • Thinking ahead - In order to ensure this website serves Resilience United for years to come, we made the site easy to update so that the firm could keep their content current and continuously post the latest resources, case studies, and updates for their visitors.

We have A LOT of success stories...

What's our secret? Every one starting the same way!
Domain

We hosted their domain name internally, which allows for a seamless transition and no interruption of services.

Hosting

We made sure every effort was made to keep our client's website safe and secure. By doing so, we put their website on our Cloud Servers which allowed for maximum security and the advantages of a dedicated server (as opposed to shared servers), along with multiple layers of privacy protection with unlimited data storage and bandwidth.

Strategy

We learned who our client is and where they were trying to go. Then, we figure out how their website can help get them there. In the process, we learned everything we could about their brand, organization, products, targets, and competition that surround it.

Design

We used the website strategy we created just for our client to create a design that achieved their goals while delighting their visitors/users. Their website was designed to be beautiful, authentic, and strategically organized for a seamless user experience.

Code

We brought our client's website to life. Every website we develop uses the latest and greatest technology and coding practices to ensure a long and fruitful life online. We built an easy-to-update, mobile responsive website that looks and functions perfectly regardless of the browser or device their visitors used.

Maintain

Ongoing Maintenance is the best defense against different software used to build websites and search engine algorithms constantly changing and adapting. We had a trained Software Engineer on hand to monitor the website which was necessary to make updates to continue optimal performance and proactively seek opportunities to improve the site.

SEO

SEO is central to our client's website’s visibility. It is an important way of communicating with Google and other search engines to prove the relevance of their site for users and their search queries. We conducted an Audit to get a better understanding on what needs improved.

I can’t say enough good things about working with Creatotech to design our new company website. From taking the time to understand our company and goals to concept generation to launch, the whole process was first class. The process is very well organized and there we no surprises in deliverables or billing. Highly recommended!
