Executive Coaching
Problems Solved:
To spread the purpose revolution with greatest impact, PurposeQuest first turned to Skylar Design in 2000. Eight years later, the organization's site needed a refresh that would convey its growth and impact in reaching countless people and offering significant services. Skylar developed an effective new look and organizational structure for purposequest.com to intuitively lead visitors to a multitude of free resources in the areas of purpose, leadership and faith. The greatest addition to the site is the free Purpose Assessment, which is prominently displayed on the homepage and made accessible elsewhere throughout the site for increased interactivity and interest.

Cheerway Care needed an entire rebranding of their corporate image. Skylar designed their new logo and created a new set of collateral materials. After the stationary system was complete, Skylar redesigned their website. One of Cheerway's biggest challenges was their employment process. Skylar created a solution which gathers and compiles all the necessary information to process potential Cheerway employees.

Political
Problems Solved:
Needing to increase the public's awareness of his running for office, Mr. Harold Dyche wanted a website that could fully communicate what he stood for, the issues that most concerned him, and how he was the best candidate for District Judge. Skylar was personally asked by Mr. Dyche to develop his official website. Staying away from traditional political looking websites (e.g., stars and stripes, use of red, white,& blue colors), Skylar decided to design something far different yet stick with a conservative tone. Using a specific set of typefaces and limited use of colors, Skylar created a very elegant, yet professional looking campaign website. In addition, besides communicating his political aspirations, the site also communicates how others can get involved with his campaign.

Life Coach/Mentor
Problems Solved:
Helping clients unleash their potential and purpose through a journey of self-discovery is the aim of Focus in Coaching. With a unique emphasis on coaching, rather than counseling, their website needed to convey a vision of clarity, hope, direction and trust. Communicating these themes with a tone of genuine concern for people and inviting them to take advantage of a free introductory coaching session was the ultimate goal of the site. Skylar Design carefully positioned content and chose exceptional imagery to encourage viewers to put themselves in the picture of beginning their purpose-filled adventure. The result: the creation of a website that is superbly designed, well articulated, very inviting and already receiving rave reviews from viewers.

Problems Solved:
Bang Ventures Inc. hired Skylar Design to exclusively redesign the entire "You Be the VC" website. The scope of the redesign included not only the public side of the site but also the private areas (members only sections). Since the project involved an online competition and targeted a very tech savvy audience, the homepage had to communicate within a few seconds what this competition/website was all about. Thus, Skylar created a three-part equation which sums up the entire project.

Home Theatre/Security Services
Problems Solved:
Home Tech Consultants (HTC) decided that they needed to invest the time and money to create a specialized website that focused on their work and specialized clientele. Skylar designed a website that targets those seeking home theatre/media/security services in the Long Island region. To highlight HTC's work, a project gallery was created whereby users could see a sampling of their work. In addition, a form was created so potential clients could request a free estimate from HTC. This streamlines the process of getting to meeting new clients since HTC can gather key data and return, in a short amount of time, a fairly accurate quote.

Food Franchise
Problems Solved:
Noted as one of the most successful Brazilian franchises in recent years, Showcolate is well-known throughout Brazil. Since then, they've expanded their territory to Portugal and the Continental US. Already having a website in Brazil, Showcolate hired Skylar to design a website that "spoke" to an American audience, specifically those individuals looking to become a franchisee owner. Showcolate franchises sell their unique chocolate from state-of-the-art kiosks in retail malls. Skylar had the distinct task of designing a website that targeted potential American franchisee owners and visually integrate into the new designs their unique kiosk system.
