Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark Launches Redesigned Website for Accredited-Online-Colleges.com

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 01/31/2012

Xcellimark recently redesigned the home page of the www.Accredited-Online-Colleges.com  website to make it more user friendly for the visitors. The previous site was about 3 years old so it was time for a fresh, new look to make the website more user-friendly and easy for visitors to find online degree programs at accredited colleges and universities.

Accredited Online Colleges Gets a New Look


New additions to the home page include the Quick Degree Finder, which currently ranks as the #1 clicked-on area on the home page of the website. The Quick Degree Finder helps visitors immediately jump to the degree they are looking for.

The left-side Navigation remained in tact, helping to guide a visitor’s search on the website so they can easily find schools by degree type (Associates, Bachelors, Masters, etc.) or degree subject (Business, Health Care, Technology, Education, etc.).

"Compared to other industry websites, Accredited Online Colleges definitely stands out from the competition. The site is a one-stop resource for accredited online degrees and colleges giving consumers the ability to easily and quickly find the course, program or college that best matches their interest," said Nancy Lambert, Vice President of Xcellimark.

Overall, Accredited-Online-Colleges.com’s new website was designed with users in mind to make finding information a breeze. The website is simple to navigate and provides visitors with a clean path to get more information about the online degree program or online college that they are looking for. Future design plans include a redesign for the internal pages, focusing on a layout change.

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 11/22/2011

Top SEOs Link Building November 2011

Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark has ranked as one of the top 30 Link Building Firms for the month of November 2011.

This month marks the 12th time in a row that the award-winning firm has made the list.

Every month, TopSEOs analyzes agencies based on the following criteria:

o Competitive advantage
o Superior services and pricing
o Customer and technical support
o Response to client problems
o Innovations that set it apart from the competition
o Overall efficiency
o Overall performance

Another part of the evaluation process involves TopSEOs asking Xcellimark’s clients for feedback on general and project-specific questions such as:

o Rate your overall experience

To generate success for their clients, Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark has a targeted approach to link building that helps targeted key search phrases rank high in the search engines.

"On-page SEO factors can be complicated and involved, but they are fairly straightforward. However, ‘off-page’ factors such as link building involve more time and resources to create a high volume of high-quality links coming into relevant pages within your website. Link building may account for up to 70% of the success of your overall SEO efforts. While we have several proven methodologies to do this in an organic way, online press releases that are optimized for SEO purposes can be a powerful tool for ranking high in the search engine results pages (SERP). We have used this particular method to dominate key search phrases for many of our clients and it should be a part of every company's SEO efforts,” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

Orlando Interactive Agency Xcellimark Launches a Redesigned Website for Gran Pacifica; Features Nicaragua Real Estate

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 11/01/2011

Hot on the heels of a new website for GrandBaymen, award-winning Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark recently launched a second new website for another ECI Development - this time in Nicaragua: www.granpacifica.com  

Like its sister-site GrandBaymen, ECI’s goals included rebranding Gran Pacifica’s property image online and generating leads from people interested in purchasing oceanfront real estate in Nicaragua.

“Our goal was to significantly increase the quantity of qualified leads, develop a more compelling online image and improve the content management and marketing capabilities of their online operations. Since we have launched the new website, the online conversion rate has increased 438%. That is a significant improvement in online performance,” Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.


Gran Pacifica Has Real Estate in Nicaragua

Gran Pacifica’s website was developed and programmed with several new programming and search features and functionality to help visitors and potential residents find properties. The Real Estate Search Module  is an extremely user-friendly tool that makes it easy for visitors to search for Nicaraguan real estate  in Gran Pacifica including lots, houses, casitas or villas that sit on miles of beach.

In addition to the Real Estate Search Module, Xcellimark programmed and installed a Rental Search Module. This module allows Gran Pacifica property owners to list their home or condo for visitors seeking vacation rentals in Nicaragua  or to test-drive living in Central America. The Gran Pacifica website is also a robust source of information on things to do in Nicaragua including surfing  and golfing.

“During our planning we knew that the website for Gran Pacifica would be one of our more complex projects as the site needed to be user friendly not only for visitors, but for the administrators that would take over updating the website. We met this challenge by engaging in several customized features that are easy to use for both visitors and administrators,” said Rochelle Curbow-Wheeler, Project Manager. Those customized features included:

•    Searchable Real Estate and Rental Property Database with customized search widget and inquiry request form
•    SEO-friendly Photo Gallery 
•    Testimonial component programmed to interface with assigned pages
•    Complex Contact Us form programming that provides an easy user experience while sending automated responses for single or multiple inquiries
•    Completely customized administrative area that takes the guesswork out of website updating and record or image uploading
   
Overall, Gran Pacifica’s new website has the theme, design and information to put visitors interested in visiting Nicaragua at ease. The website is simple to use and guides visitors on a simple path to get more information about visiting, living or retiring in Nicaragua and renting or purchasing a vacation home, beach or oceanfront condo, village casita home, or golf course home.

"Xcellimark is fantastic.  They were able to help me, a tech novice, understand the mechanism that delivers higher rankings and how to produce them on a consistent basis.   They were patient as I had to ‘repeat class’ to catch on, but the results speak for themselves.   Our ranking is higher, but more important, our conversions have skyrocketed, up 438%, " said Mike Cobb, CEO of ECI Development.

TopSEOs Identifies Orlando Interactive Digital Agency as One of the Top 30 Link Building Firms for the Month of October 2011

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 10/25/2011

Top SEOs Link Building October 2011Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark has ranked as one of the top 30 Link Building Firms for the month of October 2011. This month marks the 11th time in a row that the award-winning firm has made the list.

To determine which companies makes the list, TopSEOs conducts a rigorous evaluation process that evaluates and analyzes agencies based on the following:

o Competitive advantage
o Superior services and pricing
o Customer and technical support
o Response to client problems
o Innovations that set it apart from the competition
o Overall efficiency
o Overall performance

One part of the evaluation process involves TopSEOs asking Xcellimark’s clients for feedback on general and project-specific questions such as:

o Rate your overall experience.
o What type of needs analysis was conducted before the work was initiated?
o What is the average quantity and quality (page rank) of incoming links achieved to date?
o What activities have been put into place to seek out new links?
o How is the link popularity campaign being measured for success?

To make the list, a company must also possess certain qualities such as a commitment to excellence, dedication to customer service satisfaction, and have a great depth of knowledge and unique advantages over the competition, which is something the Orlando Interactive Digital Agency strives to do, especially in the area of local search.

“The emergence of Local Search has been one of the most significant changes in SEO in the last 18 months. Local Search dominates the top search rankings for almost 70% of keyphrases that have now been deemed to be local intent by the search engines. For many companies, Local Search is SEO and that will continue for the foreseeable future as search engines capture what used to be the Yellow Pages market. However, time is of the essence and businesses must move now before they are left in the dust. There will come a point where they will not be able to catch up with companies at the top of the rankings. The good news is that in many cases the size of a company does not necessarily give you an advantage for these top rankings, so locally-focused businesses or franchisees can start positioning themselves now,” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

Contact Xcellimark for more information on how to start a lucrative local search campaign for your business.

Xcellimark was recently recognized by Leading Providers as a Leading Provider of Professional Services in the Southeastern United States. Forbes Magazine also named the Orlando interactive digital agency to a list of top-tier companies in the region.

Leading Providers utilizes a proprietary algorithm to rank each eligible company.

Each company must exceed multiple industry-specific benchmarks to be eligible for the ranking.Leading Providers 2011 Certified Web Designer

Customer service interviews also play a significant role in the evaluative process. Multiple customers are interviewed about their experiences with the companies, and candidates must score highly during the interview process to be considered for the Leading Providers' rankings.

"The recognition by Forbes Magazine and Leading Providers is a testimony to all of the hard work that our agency does to help businesses grow and increase in profitability,” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark. “Our clients vary from industry to industry such as home improvement, travel & tourism, legal and retail but all of them have consistently received a higher volume of quality leads, improved sales revenue, and lower cost of sales.”

Grand Baymen Website Gets Revamped and Experiences Immediate Impact Upon Launch

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 07/28/2011

Award-winning Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark recently launched a new website for ECI Development’s Caribbean community, Grand Baymen: www.grandbaymen.com. ECI’s goals included  rebranding Grand Baymen’s property image online and generating leads from people interested in purchasing property on the Caribbean island of Ambergris Caye.

To accomplish these goals, the website features a new design, easier navigation, and enriched copy to draw visitors into the website and motivate them to discover what Grand Baymen is all about by booking a Chill Weekend.

“From the time the new website was launched, there was an immediate impact on Grand Baymen’s online image and an increase in the quantity and quality of leads generated. The redesign has increased the conversion rate of people wanting more information on the Grand Baymen community and Ambergris Caye, Belize by over 83%. Ambergris Caye is consistently listed as one of the best islands in the world on which to retire. Therefore we wanted Grand Baymen's online image to match the beauty and the excitement of the island,” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

Xcellimark Vice President, Nancy Lambert, echoed his sentiments: “We’re excited to see how the online re-branding and conversion optimization improves condo sales and rentals over time.”

One of the major improvements to the website was the look and feel of the site. The overall theme of the website was designed with the cultural heritage of the island in mind. From the vibrant pictures and sandy background that reflects the laid-back beach community to specific design elements sprinkled throughout the site, the essence of the island and everything Ambergris Caye represents was carried throughout the website. In addition to the lovely design, the website is also chockfull of information on things to do on Ambergris Caye.

Grand Baymen Redesigned Website

“The new and improved website is a good resource to educate people about the value of the property in Belize, activities in San Pedro, Ambergris Caye, the culture, community and things to do on and off the island,” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

Another way Xcellimark helped ECI rebrand Grand Baymen was by designing and implementing a search, social media and email marketing campaign. All the content on the website was optimized to help the site rank higher in the search engines for the desired key phrases, and social media profiles were set up on sites such as Twitter and Facebook to draw visitors and residents into an online community where they can interact with one another after their vacation is over.

“The Xcellimark staff has worked diligently with me to set-up and help implement a social media campaign that will continue to get our website’s Google rankings up.  The redesigned Grand Baymen website, in combination with the new blog, has produced significantly more leads than we received in the past,” said Ann Kuffner, Vice President of Sales, Grand Baymen.

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 07/05/2011

After receiving three Orlando Business Journal awards last year, Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark has again been recognized by the Orlando Business Journal: this time as one of the Largest Digital Media and Film Production Companies in Central Florida.

Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark Xcellimark ranked #13 amongst the other award winners. The ranking order is determined in part by the number of employees a company has.

  • Largest 100 Privately Held Companies in Central Florida – Golden 100 including the Ultimate Newcomer to the Golden 100 - 2010

The OBJ’s Largest Digital Media and Film Production Company award was also based on additional ranking criteria created through yearly surveys. If a company met the ranking criteria for the survey, they were placed on a list with 25 other top digital media companies.

“Digital Media is quickly becoming a differentiator in online marketing not only from a branding perspective but in lead generation and customer acquisition for businesses.

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 06/14/2011

There’s a new member on the Xcellimark Team and his name is Captain America! The Captain America award, in the form of a figurine modeled after the patriotic superhero himself, is a way for individuals in the Xcellimark office to openly show their appreciation for another employee and commend them on job well done.
Captain America
“The goal is to have employees publicly recognize one another for doing something great. Teamwork is essential in our work environment so we want to encourage our employees to look for things that their fellow teammates are doing right and honor them for it,”
 said Nancy Lambert, Vice President of Xcellimark.

After being awarded with Captain America, the individual gets to keep him for at least a day before he can be awarded to someone else. After that time period, any employee can award Captain America to someone else as a “Thank You.”

“Having Captain America in the office has been a great boost in company morale. The employees are having fun deciding who gets the honor of having Captain America on their desk next and are going out of their way to celebrate their co-workers,” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

So far, Captain America has made the rounds from the Communications department to Design and Marketing. Where will he end up next? Check out our Facebook Fan Page to find out!

Xcellimark Develops Website for DirectBuy Conference

Posted by: Rochelle Curbow Wheeler Posted Date: 03/31/2011

Celebrating their 40th anniversary, DirectBuy is holding the 2011 International Sales & Service Conference in Washington D.C. and has partnered with Xcellimark for a 3rd year to redesign and develop their conference website.

Customized Programming Makes Online Registration Possible

Prior to last year’s conference in Dallas, DirectBuy and Xcellimark entered into discussions about setting up an online registration process for individuals and groups attending the conference.

Utilizing the Opensites Web Development Platform, Xcellimark tailored a database module to work exactly the way DirectBuy needed, exceeding DirectBuy’s expectations with customized programming that captures information based on multiple, inter-dependent criteria. All attendees register online with a streamlined process, even though the registration process is different depending on the person or group registering.

DirectBuy 2011 International Sales & Service Conference

Simple User Interface Allows Automated Check-Ins

The check-in process was another activity that needed improving. During conversations with DirectBuy last year, Xcellimark discovered that the database structure they used did not allow them to “check-in” people at the actual event, forcing event staff to download and update Excel spreadsheets manually at the end of each day.

Xcellimark took the initiative and developed a simple user interface that provides logins to event staff, allowing them to quickly and easily check-in individuals and groups attending the conference as they arrive.

Portable Device-Friendly Website

In addition, understanding the tremendous growth in mobile Internet users (predicted to be 1.7 billion by 2013), this year, Xcellimark updated Directbuy’s conference website for its 2011 event to allow attendees to view the website and register and check-in from multiple portable devices. The overall increase in productivity for DirectBuy has been a tremendous help to the company and to the success of the conference.

Xcellimark - 2010 Year in Review

Posted by: Scott Lambert Posted Date: 12/30/2010

Scott Lambert, Xcellimark President2010 has been quite the year. While there remain significant challenges fighting out of the economic blow of 2009, there were some wonderful moments of hope and accomplishments during 2010 for us.

We were featured on the national TV series Today in America to discuss how online image is helping businesses increase sales. The video interview aired on Fox Business Network, CNN Headline News and on Regional News Networks in up to 15 markets.

We were honored to win 5 awards during 2010, 3 regional awards and 2 national awards. We weren’t even aware of a couple of them until we read them in a magazine or someone called to congratulate us on them. While we have won a national award every year for Web Design since 2007, we added a few more awards this year:

We also saw the addition of some key employees. Amy Lambert joined us permanently as a Copywriter (after years working as a contractor). Mark Hughs joined us as an Internet Marketing Consultant and has brought great levity to the office. Maria Frey rejoined us full time as a Web Designer after adding another son to our corporate family. Maria’s new son Joseph looks just like his older brother Jacob, only bigger. (I think picking on little brother just went out the window in that family).

2010 also was a year that saw us expand into the Latin American market and move more aggressively into rich media and social media marketing. I think the concept of online communities will rival search in the next 5 years and the time for each organization to build that community is now.

Search also saw some significant changes in the Search Engine Optimization (SEO) industry during the 4th quarter with Google integrating Local Search (now called Places) into organic search, the release of Google Instant and Yahoo fully integrating Bing’s search results into their search engine results pages (SERPs).

The quality of a company’s online image has become a key determining factor not only in click-throughs to the site but also because of the Google preview microscope showing up as part of the listings. Searchers can now view your site before clicking through to see if it looks interesting enough to visit.

Testing and Optimization has proven to be the key marketing tactic in conversion optimization and is a requirement in ensuring ROI for online advertising dollar. Also as the FCC moves in to regulate the Internet, much is still to happen.

As we enter 2011, it promises to be a turning point for many organizations in their online marketing success. Either you adapt to these changes more aggressively or risk being far behind the pack (maybe indefinitely). Too much has changed and is in play for 2011. Playing catch up in this industry is difficult. Every industry is inextricably linked to the Internet market. It’s time to raise your online marketing efforts now.
 

Xcellimark is One of the Top Advertising Agencies in Orlando

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 12/28/2010

For the third time this year, Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark has earned another award from the Orlando Business Journal: Top 10 Advertising Agencies in Central Florida.

Prior to this award, the OBJ recognized Xcellimark as a Top 100 Privately Owned Company in Central Florida and a Top 5 Digital Media Company.

“It’s an honor to be considered one of the top advertising agencies in Central Florida. Because we are the only pure Interactive digital agency to make the list, it demonstrates how Internet marketing has become the key marketing channel for business growth today. The award is especially rewarding because it means we are helping our clients grow their business during these difficult economic times through proven but innovative digital marketing strategies” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

In order to determine a company’s eligibility to make the list, the Orlando Business Journal surveyed advertising companies in Orange, Lake, Seminole and Osceola counties, asking for a variety of information.

The list’s ranking criteria is based on capitalized billings, so once all the responses are received, their online database system ranks the companies according to billings performance. The list represents the most profitable advertising agencies this past year based on capitalized billings.

Xcellimark Co-Sponsors Client in a Toys for Tots Fundraiser

Posted by: Rochelle Curbow Wheeler Posted Date: 12/16/2010

Xcellimark is excited to co-sponsor our client Panther Expedited’s annual Toys for Tots “Drive to Fill the Truck” fundraiser. Andy and Ed, the CEO and CIO of Panther Expedited, have been driving across the country picking-up and delivering freight to customers. All the proceeds gained from the shipments Andy and Ed deliver will be donated directly to Toys for Tots (follow their blog adventures here).

Toys for Tots

How Toys for Tots Got Started


Over sixty years ago, Diane, the wife of Colonel Bill Hendricks of the U.S. Marine Corp, was moved to give one of her hand-made dolls to a child in need. One evening Diane asked her husband to drop the doll off to a local organization that could provide the gift to a child for Christmas. Col. Hendricks soon realized that there was no agency in existence to which he could donate the doll; there was no organization that provided Christmas gifts to underprivileged children. And so, at his wife’s urging, Col. Hendricks began a pilot program for delivering gifts that was so successful after its first year that the Marine Corp adopted it and Toys for Tots was born. 

Xcellimark Supports Toys for Tots


As part of our 12 Days of Christmas celebration at Xcellimark, our own team members collected and dropped off gifts to a local Toys for Tots drive in our small effort to benefit a child in need. It is important to us at Xcellimark that we not forget the spirit of giving that Christmas should inspire in all of us, especially to those that need it most.

After being featured in Forbes magazine, recognized by Goldline Research as a Leading Provider of Web Design for the Eastern United States for the fourth year in a row, and being interviewed and highlighted by the national TV series Today in America, Xcellimark has earned yet another accolade: making the Orlando Business Journal’s list for the Top 5 Digital Media companies in Orlando.

“Digital Media Marketing continues to be the catalyst for companies to grow their business both now and in the future. It’s an honor to be considered one of the top digital media companies because it means we are helping our clients grow their business during these difficult economic times through proven but innovative digital marketing strategies,” said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

The Top Digital Media list was based on employee size within the agency. In the past, the Orlando Business Journal has published two separate lists, one ranked by employees, the other by revenue. All Orlando Business Journal lists are surveyed and updated each year for publication.

Xcellimark is no stranger when it comes to being recognized by the Orlando Business Journal. A few months ago they received recognition as one of the Orlando Business Journal’s Golden 100: Ultimate Newcomer.

To be eligible for the award, a company must be on OBJ’s annual list of the 100 largest privately-held companies in Central Florida, based on gross revenue for the most recent year-end. Other qualifications included being headquartered in Orange, Seminole, Osceola or Lake counties and not being a subsidiary of a company based outside of Central Florida.

Xcellimark Joins the OBJ Golden 100 Ultimate Newcomer List

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 09/28/2010

Orlando Business Journal Golden 100Orlando Interactive Digital Agency Xcellimark has received recognition as one of the Orlando Business Journal's Golden 100: Ultimate Newcomer.

To be eligible for the award, a company must be on OBJ’s annual list of the 100 largest privately held companies in Central Florida, based on gross revenue for the most recent year-end. Other qualifications include having headquarters in Orange, Seminole, Osceola or Lake counties and not being a subsidiary of a company based outside of Central Florida.

"Xcellimark is one of OBJ’s Golden 100: Ultimate Newcomers. As an Ultimate Newcomer, Xcellimark has joined the ranks of Central Florida’s top companies who, through hard work, diligence and great leadership, have held steady and grown despite the difficulties of these economic times," said Denise Hicks, Orlando Research Center Director for the Orlando Business Journal.

Making the list is no small feat, considering many long-time companies who have made the list in the past have now fallen off due to being bought by a non-local firm, dramatically plummeting revenue or having gone out of business completely.

"We are honored to be recognized as part of the Ultimate 100 businesses in Central Florida. As the only Interactive Digital Agency to make the list, it demonstrates our ability to make a significant contribution to real tangible growth of our client’s business even in the most difficult business climate. Our approach of cutting through the industry hype and applying only proven Internet marketing solutions allows us to grow as we enable our clients’ business to grow," said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

Casselberry Church Reveals an Updated & Redesigned Website

Posted by: Rochelle Curbow Wheeler Posted Date: 08/05/2010

Casselberry Church launched its redesigned website at www.casselberrychurch.org

Xcellimark worked closely with Casselberry Church to accomplish a complete website redesign that reflects the warmth and the very hope that is their church.

Casselberry Church Website

Casselberry Church’s new homepage design highlights several areas of ministry that are important to the church along with a warm, welcoming message. The first three boxes on the right of the homepage reflect ongoing ministries in the church while the fourth box is changed out regularly based upon upcoming events.

Studies on church websites have shown that the page viewed the most by website visitors is the “Visitor” or “I’m New” page. Additional studies revealed that the majority of visitors to churches today viewed the website before walking through the front doors.

As a result, we emphasized the importance that visitors are to the church by creating an attractive blue banner (with a picture of the church steeple) for the homepage as well as a button in the navigation titled “I’m New.”

Finally, so as to reflect all aspects of member involvement at Casselberry Church, the homepage banner transitions between several different photos, revealing the message of openness and friendship that the church was hoping to achieve.

Casselberry header

It was important to Casselberry Church that they update their online presence with a more modern design but without the harshness of some of the edgy websites popular today.

In response to their input, we created a website with rich colors and warm tones, a design with soft and sloping angles, all set against a backdrop of vibrant photos reflecting people from all walks of life.

A New Design Connects Missionaries with the World

Posted by: Rochelle Curbow Wheeler Posted Date: 07/06/2010

Global Teams is a nonprofit Missions organization that has grown steadily in size, scope and effectiveness since its establishment in 1983. Like most nonprofit organizations, Global Teams relies on the generosity of volunteers and donors to help carry out their mission and are naturally limited in their resources or ability to establish a strong presence on the web.

In May of 2009 we were thrilled to work alongside the dedicated people of Global Teams to launch a distinctively redesigned website at www.global-teams.net, providing them an invaluable resource for their organization on an international scale.

Original Image before redesignNew images after redesign

Based on Global Teams’ unique purposes and goals, their website was developed with a creative navigational style. In addition to the traditional left to right navigation in the header, an additional short navigation down the left was established highlighting key areas of information within the site. The homepage header is a flash file transitioning between images and text that support and reflect Global Teams’ missions and objectives.

Global Teams Header

An important objective for both Global Teams and our team was to make their site cost effective by developing website pages that are easy to add, edit and manage in the administrative area of the site. Global Teams is able to add and delete urgent prayer needs, missionary information and even conceal areas of their site when missionaries are in potentially dangerous areas worldwide.

We’re excited to watch Global Teams grow and their effectiveness increase! Watch along with us.

It’s important to us to partner with our clients to deliver the overall marketing success they need to reach their goals and objectives," said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.

"Great web design must be a part of a well-defined marketing strategy, integrated with compelling copy, and enhanced with digital marketing and ongoing optimization to deliver profitable customer growth. It is the combination of these critical elements that consistently delivers online success for our clients."

And it’s that kind of thinking outside of the box that makes Xcellimark an industry leader. They know that online success goes beyond a good looking website and a cookie-cutter SEO program, which is why they provide their clients with a customized digital strategy with a blueprint for success.

The Internet marketing plan may contain any number of creative integrated solutions such as video, social media, compelling writing, continuous testing and analysis in addition to a creatively designed website. Each piece of the Internet marketing puzzle is tailored to client needs to ensure that their business goals are met.

Xcellimark’s clients are reaping the rewards of this unique approach to Internet marketing and experiencing unprecedented success online and offline.

"There was an audible ‘ahhhhhh’ in the audience when we pulled up our new website," said Kevin Higgins, International Director, Global Teams. "To work with a team of people that bring the right experience, the right gifting, the right talent pool in to play at the right time was incredibly helpful. And perhaps the most helpful thing, which can be easily overlooked, is the wisdom to know how to ask the right questions to get us moving in the right direction, to prod us to think about things we would never have imagined."

Her Left Kidney

Posted by: Brittany Shelley Posted Date: 05/12/2007

Orlando, FL - It's been almost one year since the kidney transplant and Xcellimark employee, Brittany Shelley, is still going strong. On Mother's Day of last year, Shelley donated her left kidney to her mother, Deidra Pittman, who had been on dialysis for ten years.

"I feel great!" said Pittman, the spunky 50-something, single mom. "I mean who wouldn't with a 26 year-old kidney? Brittany has always been a wonderful daughter and a blessing to our family. She was never a problem child but the one time I tell her not to do something – she goes against me and does it anyway. But that was good for me because in this case it was giving me a kidney!"The "Transplant Divas" at a photo shoot

Pittman is referring to the hesitancy she felt about her only-child donating her kidney. But after getting advice from local transplant physicians, both Pittman and Shelley were put at ease.

"Everything went so smoothly. I checked into the hospital on a Friday, Mother’s Day Weekend and was released that Sunday. Mom was in the hospital for another week or so but we both recovered extremely well and Mom is living the life she truly deserves," said Shelley. "All of my life, my Mom has done for me and this was my chance to give back and show her what she means to me. We are very close and now - we are even closer since she has one of my kidneys!" joked Shelley.

Shelley is a Copywriter for Xcellimark and her bosses and co-workers were very supportive of her during the entire donation process, recovery and even the volunteer work she currently does to spread the word about organ and tissue donation.

"Xcellimark is honored to have such a wonderful and gracious person working for us. We have the privilege of knowing Deidra too and they are both very special and courageous people who exemplify what family is all about," said Scott Lambert, President of Xcellimark.
