Connie L. Nelson was finishing up her true-crime memoir, Cavalier, when she got in touch with us to design her book cover and support her launch with website design(See the finished site), and public relations management. Connie was self-publishing her first book and this was her first time creating a space for Connie the author. ​

We suggested creating a book trailer so that Barbara could share an inside look at her book, in her own words that could be easily shared with potential readers. We met with Barbara at her office in Albuquerque and filmed an interview with her. From this interview we were able to edit and compose her book trailer. A few weeks later, she had an online author event hosted by her publisher where we were able to debut and share her trailer with everyone for the first time. 

Barbara was great to work with throughout the entire process, and we had a ton of fun letting our creativity flow with this trailer.

We had the pleasure of working with the wonderful Linda Durham. Linda's professional and personal life centers on art, artists, global travel, and humanitarian causes. She has just written and published a memoir, Still Moving, telling the adventure filled life she has lived and the lessons that she has learned along the way. She wanted us to help her create a website that was classic, clean, and easy to navigate. We developed a color palette that matched the look and feel of her book, and started working on a design that would highlight all her photos, accomplishments, and of course Still Moving.

We had great time working with author Judith Vaughan promoting her new memoir, Strawberry Roan: Growing up in the Shadow of Hermit Peak. After releasing her book, Judy participated in an online book tour with us, hosted a virtual book launch, and had us create a fresh website and new business cards.

First we created a color palette to match the look and feel of Strawberry Roan to start developing a brand for her.

Judy helped us brainstorm a layout for the website, and she let us know that she really liked a website from another author, Fiona Maria Simon. With this guidance, and many photos from Judy, we were able to get started on her website.

On the home page of her site, we paid homage a site near and dear to Judy's childhood and her book, the Hermit Peak in Gallinas Canyon, found in Northern New Mexico. We wanted an image that could complement the content of her memoir and the Hermit Peak was a no-brainer. Under that we featured information about Judy, along with her headshot.

​Our client Vista Living Care is a senior living community that consists of three homes in New Mexico, two in Santa Fe and one in Las Cruces. Vista Living Care (VLC) is one of the only facilities that specializes in homes that cater to people who have dementia and Alzheimer’s.

We do a wide range of marketing and promotional work with VLC. Currently we are running and maintaining their social media accounts, which include Facebook, Twitter, and most recently an Instagram account. We post on social media 2-3 times a week with content that includes photos of their elders doing fun activities like arts and crafts or dancing. Along with this, we designed and created their website which we update regularly and where we post bi-weekly blogs. To make sure our content is new and updated, we visit the two homes in Santa Fe often and send a photographer to the Las Cruces location to take professional photos of the facilities, staff, and of the elders in their home environment. Every couple of months we send out a newsletter that includes upcoming events, recent blog posts, photos, and much more. Along with this, we help them design a range of marketing materials like flyers or brochures.
