New Partners / New Projects

Wednesday, August 10th, 2011

The last few months have been busy to say the least, with new partners with new ideas coming into the fray, along with a wide variety of projects being developed.

Officially on as equal partners in Inspire are long-time colleague Marshall Gill – one of the true creative geniuses in the world – and Steve Thompson, a former partner in an old life and one of the leaders in Calgary when it comes to web development. I’m truly excited to see where this new team takes Inspire and am proud to have two outstanding individuals on either side of me as we grow and evolve the company together.

As far as projects go, here’s a short summary of some of the things we’ve been working on.

Optimus US Real Estate Fund

In collaboration with Kicker Inc., we developed a full suite of marketing collateral and investment packages, as well as a new and much more comprehensive website that more efficiently delivers the right information to potential investors.

Surepoint Group

A long-time client of Inspire, we’ve recently completed and launched an new website for Surepoint that brings together all of their divisions in a cohesive, easy to understand manner. Along with the website we’ve developed various pieces of printed sales collateral and are continuing to do more as the summer months carry through to the fall.

BJV Exploration

BJV is a new client, whose focus is on seismic program development, that we’ve recently rebranded and developed all associated collateral and the website for – pushing them further ahead of their competition.

Wild Canyon Adventure Park

One of our favorite Mexican clients, we continue to develop strategies, promotional collateral and even full outdoor structures such as palapas for the ever popular Cabo San Lucas Adventure park.

 

The Skoop

Details are confidential at this point, but we can safely say as we continue to develop this web application, this is one of the largest online projects we’ve taken on to date, and it’s quickly becoming very close to our hearts and will be with us for a very long time. More details on this one soon.

 

Our team has been busy, but with new ideas and a new space in the future, this is truly only the beginning as we forge ahead through the evolution of what is Inspire Studios.

Exciting Times Ahead

Thursday, March 10th, 2011

As usual, there’s never a dull moment in the land of Inspire, and this spring is proving to be no different for us at Inspire. With a few big web projects coming through the door and even more along the way we’ve started the process of engaging in a strategic partnership (that includes joining together under the same roof in a new office space soon) with both Aquanode – a very talented Calgary web development company, and the RH Agency – a brilliant strategy and business development group.

By moving in this direction, we’ll be able to provide a wealth of creative and development services for all of our clients as well as properly engage in the development of our own products and applications.

Personally, I’m really excited for what’s to come in the next 6-12 months. All the pieces are starting to come together and everything just feels right and will undoubtedly lead to a whole new set of opportunities. Up to this point we’ve been able to do quite a lot, but now the resources will finally in place to do a lot more – including exploring our own creative ideas for applications, tools and more.

So I encourage you to stay tuned, there’s much more than the address that’s changing!
