The Mane Event Website Roars Back To Life With Big Shifter’s Help

bigshifter · April 1, 2022 ·

The Mane Event is a gravel bike event that acts as the main fundraiser for the Sheridan Sundowners Lions Club’s. Their previous website and branding just weren’t doing enough for the organization to get the word out about their event. Big Shifter met with the Lions Club team and we formulated a plan for a new logo, branding and accompanying website.

APPROACH

Big Shifter met the Sundowners club to talk in detail about what they wanted from their brand and the event itself. Sheridan Wyoming offers some of the best gravel roads to ride on in the United States and the Mane Event Gravel Grinder website needed to reflect this.

SOLUTION

The old site was managed on GoDaddy and was a site that was put together by the organization using their best efforts. Big Shifter proposed hosting the site on the Squarespace CMS platform which would be easier to maintain and provides some out of the box functionality they wanted. In addition Big Shifter provided a new logo and branding guide for the group that will be used for future printing and merchandise.

bigshifter · November 23, 2021 ·

APPROACH

Big Shifter met with John and Jordan at Black Tooth Brewery in Sheridan Wyoming to discuss what they were looking for in a new website. Discussions ranged from branding and design to their competitors and future aspirations for the event. Big Shifter put a plan in action and submitted those ideas to them and it was decided to move forward with the project.

SOLUTION

The old site was managed on GoDaddy and was a bit difficult to manage and there was very old content on the site as well which needed to be replaced. Big Shifter proposed hosting the site on the Squarespace CMS platform. We brought in fresh imagery, authored new content, and gave the website a more clear message to its users.

Big Shifter launches a new website for The Camerata Singers nonprofit organization

bigshifter · October 15, 2021 ·

Camerata Singers of Goshen Indiana is a dedicated group of vocal artists that “…is a professional choral ensemble, offering captivating programming and world-class singing to its audiences. They approached Big Shifter a few years ago to update their aging website with a new and fresh design. Their aging site was not representing their brand well and was not mobile device friendly.

The Camerata Singers New Website

APPROACH

After gathering requirements during a kickoff meeting. Big Shifter got to work meeting with the Camerata Singers staff to flesh out the imagery and content for the site. There was an organization rename and re-branding effort in the works as well and Bigshifter led with many ideas for the site. But what we weren’t ready for was the COVID issue. The Camerata Singers 2020 season was canceled and therefore the site project was put on hold.

SOLUTION

The Squarespace platform was chosen as the Content Management System (CMS) and hosting provider for the site. A new theme was created for the website and the Camerata Singer staff had input on the site branding and its content. Big Shifter held several workshop meetings with the client to teach them how to manage content, organize imagery and manage their events. We launched the site just before their Fall 2021 season and the site was a hit with the organization and its patrons.

Roll “N” Rite Doors Launches New Website with Big Shifter Partnership

bigshifter · October 1, 2021 ·

Roll “N” Rite Doors is a commercial and residential sales and service company in Sheridan Wyoming. They have local and regional customers and they needed a website that reflected their current message and branding. To add to the complexity, their previous web developer left town with no forwarding information thus leaving them without a website.

Roll “N” Rite Website

APPROACH

After gathering requirements during a kickoff meeting. Big Shifter got to work trying to re-use much of the work that had already been accomplished by the previous website developer. Because the previous website administration area was inaccessible, Big Shifter grabbed as much content from the previously developed site before it ‘went away’ permanently.

SOLUTION

The Squarespace platform was chosen as the Content Management System (CMS) and hosting provider for the site. A new theme was created for the website and content was cleaned up. Pages were merged and many of the content areas were cleaned up to make Roll “N” Rite’s marketing messaging more clear and concise.
