Atlanta: Home of the New Wave of Web Graphics Design
The South is surging with innovative technology
Not many cities can make the claim to business success like Atlanta can. Not many cities have such a growing need in the area of web maintenance, web graphic design, and overall website solutions. The ever-expanding metro area is awakening to its potential to not only handle the problems of internet technology, but also to aggressively be a world leader in web business.
Atlanta has achieved the well-earned nickname of the Business Capital of the Southeast, and it's easy to see why. According to the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, Atlanta has the fifth largest concentration of Fortune 500 companies in America.
With companies like Home Depot, UPS, Aflac, and (of course) Coca Cola making Atlanta their home base, it's no wonder that the city enjoys a prosperity that few other regions can boast. However, it's also the smaller companies that have moved in and enjoy a symbiotic relationship with the bigger fellows in the city. Outsourcing, bartering and technological exchanges are just a few of the business dealings that happen every day in the Georgia metropolis.
In fact, it's fairly difficult not to succeed in Atlanta. Unless, of course, you come unprepared.
The sad fact is, many do.
“It's amazing how many companies are top notch in appearance, energy and dedication,” said Nigel Gower, CEO of 24OnDemand. “But their web sites are atrocious. There's a desperate need for website solutions. No fresh content, no web graphics design, nothing. One of my colleagues met with a president of a company last month. That gentleman told my friend that he had not updated his site since 1999. Seriously. My friend was shown the website and was aghast. The graphics and content were laughable. It was amazing that the man was still in business at all. That's really what it is, a need for state-of-the-art web solutions.”
Gower's company offers website solutions that are virtually turnkey. “All the client needs to do is to let us know his business, its location, its aim and its product of service, and we're off and running.” As a recent resident of Atlanta, Gower is excited about the opportunities he had encountered. “I meet business people who have a passion for their product but just don't know how to present it in a world of technology. That's where we take that whole burden off of their back – we're here to walk them through the supermarket of options and let them pick and choose the website solutions they want. Then they let us sweat the details while they go on about their business. That is not restricted to Atlanta; it's all over the world. But here in Atlanta, the networking of tech-hungry corporations is fascinating. From web graphics design to user-friendly password protected sites, they want to know it all, and use it all.”
24On Demand meets the needs of companies who want to utilize the latest technologies, from online ads to keeping an in-the-website accounting log of business transactions. The company has been recognized as an innovative new corporation whose reputation is encouraging progression toward all-in-one marketing and management.
Atlanta is ready and willing to work with 24On Demand. It not only wants to, it really needs to. It really can't help it. The 28 countries that comprise Atlanta's metro is now the eighth largest metro area in the nation. It's not slowing down: at last census count, Atlanta's metro area was trailing only Atlanta, Dallas and Houston in growth. With more people come more businesses, more opportunities and more technological needs.
The city has had more than one day on the international stage, especially with the global spotlight that came with hosting the 1996 Olympics. It realizes that it still remains under an international microscope as wrestles with the technological needs of a major urban region. And, of course, there's that growth thing – companies keep moving in at an alarming pace. Don't tell that to Gower though – he's not intimidated by it. He understands it completely. His company grew within these city limits because of the opportunities afforded by the need for new and creative ways to do electronic business.
“That's why we're here,” said Gower. “We offer website solutions by specializing in web graphics design and other corporate necessities. Who doesn't need these things? We could've settled anywhere in the country, but we chose Atlanta because of the local energy. Sure, we have international accounts as well as business with companies across the nation. But for getting face-to-face with local high-octane movers and shakers, well, you can't beat Atlanta.”
