17. WHAT-A-YA NUTS?!
OBJECTIVE
Create a marketing website for a new brand of
snack food that matches the same level of fun
as the brand itself. Introduce eCommerce
functionality via Alice.com storefront.
SOLUTION
Focus on extending the brand for the web,
using logo and brand assets to make brand
elements come alive with bold interactive
areas and animation. Increase engagement
through a high visibility “Social Nuts” area.
Build the site on WordPress CMS, so it is
easy to update content, and use responsive
techniques, so that visitors experience an
optimized presentation of the brand for every
screen resolution and device.
RESULTS
Increased visibility and interactions amongst
potential customers and vendors. Customers
can learn about the product and get nutritional
information. Potential vendors now have a
way to learn about the company and an easy
way to contact owner about opportunities.
Customers will soon be able to purchase
What-A-Ya Nuts?! online (coming late
Summer, 2012).
