We’re happy to announce that the Rodeo Austin events site launched this week, just in time for rodeo tickets to go on sale! The events site maintains the new look and feel that we designed for their year round heritage site, with added features so visitors can explore event information and buy tickets through a quick, friendly shopping process.

On the main event page, you’ll see featured Rodeo Austin events, with the option to view a list of all upcoming activities. You can sort by type and recommendation, and even create your own event schedule. Events can be posted to Facebook and Twitter, or they can be emailed to friends via custom e-cards. Want to hear a song by an upcoming entertainer? You can do that, too!

This holiday season, we helped David Evans and Associates spread warm wishes to its employees and customers with a custom holiday e-card. The card was designed to incorporate DEA’s four concentrated areas of business: energy, water resources, transportation and land development. It highlights DEA’s commitment to its employees and partners, while spreading a warm, holiday message.

View the e-card for some holiday cheer, and feel free to forward it to friends and family, too!

The holiday shopping rush has arrived, and we have a solution. We recently launched gift card programs for two of our clients: KEEN Footwear and Andy’s Frozen Custard, making it easy and hassle-free to get gifts for anyone on your list.

KEEN Gift Cards can be used on all items at www.KEENFootwear.com, from shoes, to socks and bags. Customers can choose from one of four designs for their card, as well as add a personal message. KEEN Gift Cards can be printed out or emailed to the recipient for instant delivery.

Andy’s new virtual gift cards have created quite a stir. The new system allows customers to send gift cards via email and text message that work on Smart Phones. Redeeming them is as simple as showing the image on a phone to the Andy's cashier. Of course, printable gift cards are available, too.

We just launched the new Rodeo Austin interactive website! Serving as Rodeo Austin's Official Website Design and Development Sponsor, we created a new online identity that gives visitors a taste of the rodeo experience online year around. The website features a new architecture for easy access to event information, guest-uploaded photos and event videos and recaps.  

Another great enhancement is a streamlined ecommerce tool that makes it easy to purchase everything from event tickets to memberships, and also to donate to the scholarship fund and youth auction. The new website reflects Rodeo Austin's lively, spirited nature and propels Rodeo Austin even further in its role as the technological leader in the Fair and Rodeo industry.

We just launched a new feature for the KEEN Footwear website that creates a new connection between HybridLife Community members and their favorite KEEN products. The enhanced KEEN Picks feature lets customers “pick” their favorite products by sharing thoughts on them as well as uploading pictures and videos to the site.

A customer’s pick is automatically added to their HybridLife Community profile in the new My Picks section. Other community members can view personal recommendations and gain insight into which products might be best for their own needs. Shoppers can read customer reviews, view pictures and watch videos directly from the product detail page.

Check out the enhancements here, and if you’ve got a favorite KEEN product, share your thoughts on it!
