Thank you, Site Admin Team!

Friday 6 May 2011< | Keith J. Hamilton

Thank You Site Admin Thank you, Site Admin Team!

For most people, it’s not often that the people who work really hard behind the scenes are thanked for their efforts.  At MycroBurst, we work hard to remember that every single member of our company is valuable, and we couldn’t succeed without each and every individual.

This post is dedicated to a specific team at MycroBurst, who many clients and graphic designers don’t even realize exist, until they need them. This is, of course, the Site Admin team.

The MycroBurst Site Admin team is made up of a highly-trained group of graphic designers and customer support specialists, and they work extremely hard to moderate and mediate the design contests at MycroBurst.com.

The Site Admins work around the clock to resolve issues. Maybe a designer thinks their design has been copied. Or perhaps a client wants to know why a draft disappeared from a contest. Maybe the project holder never selected a winner, or the designer sent the final files in the wrong format. This is when the Site Admins get to work.

The Site Admins work very to handle every single case in the most honest and fair manner. When needed, they defend graphic designers and support them if a project holder isn’t being fair or asks for too many revisions. And when designers don’t follow the rules or send the correct design files, Site Admins work to get the project holder the designs they paid for.

Site Admins also strongly encourage project holders to guarantee their projects so the designers will feel comfortable entering contests. They monitor contests daily to make sure every contest gets the attention it needs. They will contact project holders and recommend that they update creative briefs, give feedback, and give designers the communication they need. It isn’t an easy job, but it needs to be done.

Site Admins also rely on clients and designers to report copyright issues – there is no way the Site Admins could double check every single draft against every other design on the internet.(The Site Admin Team recommends that issues are reported immediately so they can be looked into before each contest ends.) When designers watch each other and help keep every contest honest, they are helping to strengthen MycroBurst and the design community.

And that is why  we are taking the time to thank the MycroBurst Site Admin Team for the extraordinary effort they put into their job on a daily basis.  Being a Site Admin is a thankless job, and for that, we want to say “Thank You”.

Award Winning Designs – An Endless Self-Promoting Marketing Strategy

Wednesday 4 May 2011< | Keith J. Hamilton

Award Winning Designs Award Winning Designs – An Endless Self Promoting Marketing Strategy

We all know the old saying “Actions speak louder than words”.  The same can be said about a company or individual’s accomplishments in their industry or field of expertise. Take logo design contests, for example. Designers who compete and win are recognized and appreciated for their efforts. Creating award winning designs therefore, is a great self-promoting marketing strategy that businesses should implement. Doing so will provide the following benefits.

1. Improved Visibility

There is no better way to get prominent visibility in your industry than through winning awards for your designs. Whether it’s an attractive logo, a professional website or a nifty application, if your work gets recognized, so will you. Small businesses in particular can gain attention from this.

2. Boost Web Traffic

Winning an online award on a respected internet award site like Web Awards will significantly boost your web traffic. As more and more clients and customers notice your work and your accomplishments, they will eagerly flock to your website seeking more information about your products and services.

3. Meet the Trend Setters

The great thing about award winning designs is that they are instrumental in establishing a company’s authority in their relative industry thereby making them the trend setters for others to follow. If you want your company to be regarded a leader in your field, you will need to create something extraordinary and have it recognized by respected and notable award websites.

4. A Vote of Confidence

Award winning designs are the ultimate vote of confidence for a company or small business. They create a positive impression on prospective clients and make them feel more comfortable about their investment. This leads to strong company-client ventures and relationships.

5. The Best Sales Pitch Ever

To conclude, a winning design mentioned on a notable award site like Web Awards is arguably the best sales pitch a company can ever throw at their clients without saying a word. Such websites offer hundreds of categories for companies to choose from.

No matter how established your company is, you should always strive to get yourself mentioned on such prestigious platforms. With so many competitors out there, the strategy is shifting from “I can do it too” to “I can do it better”. Award winning design, services or products will always keep you miles ahead.
