  2. Photo granted Creative Commons licensing for distribution. Photo located at http://www.flickr.com/photos/cogdog/3181497278 In another words a Geek cannot relate to people. They may be smart but cannot relate. Has your site become unrelatable? Out of date?

  4. Photo granted Creative Commons licensing for distribution. Photo located at http://www.flickr.com/photos/ Information overload – brain dump on front page or even a landing page A geek site will tell you the solutions without telling you the problem. Ungeeked shows you the problem and leads you to the solution while introducing the brand.
  5. Everything should reinforce your brand setting the right customer expectation.
  6. Everything should reinforce your brand setting the right customer expectation.
  7. What is the purpose of a site? It isn’t always to sell a commoditized item. Sometimes it’s a person or even an idea. Sometimes it serves as your first meeting with your customer.
  8. The art of good web design is melding Brand and Purpose, Design & Function, never forgetting the end goal which is more lead conversions.

  13. Photo granted Creative Commons licensing for distribution. Photo located at http://www.flickr.com/photos/rwp-roger/3155147413/ What stores grab your attention? Pull you in? A store connects on an emotional level - Your first connection on the site is immediately subconscious
