Yummy Jerky Online Beef Jerky Store and WordPress Blog

Tuesday, June 28th, 2011

yummyjerky-storeI have been buying beef jerky from Yummy Jerky for a couple years and been very pleased with their service and product quality.  The Jerky Hut brand jerky offered by Yummy Jerky is top notch.  If you like beef jerky you will not be disappointed by Yummy Jerky’s product and customer service.  Jerky Hut brand jerky is not the cheap convenient store type jerky many people associate with.

When Aaron at Yummy Jerky decided to step up to a more powerful online store to market his products he called to see what solutions 509 Media had to offer.  Working with the budget given for the website design project we went with an X-Cart install with a custom theme backed up with a WordPress blog themed to match the online store section of the website.  If you would like to see X-Cart and WordPress working together be sure to check out this web design project.

fresh_trucking-business-cardsFresh Starts Transportation and Produce contacted me a few months ago about building a custom business card design for their trucking / produce company.  The company operates two separate divisions to focus on transportation and the other to broker produces goods.  The client’s suggestion was to incorporate a lot of different information on the card to highlight each business.  We recommended to Fresh Starts to keep the business card design simple in an effort not confuse people.  Fresh Starts did not have a well defined company logo, but I was able to take a concept they had going and polish the look.  Based of of the information given we designed a clean professional looking business card to represent their trucking and produce business.

The business cards will feature spot UV.  The yellow section of the business cards front and rear will not be coated.  The remaining section of the card will be UV coated to make it shiny.  The client will be able to write on the matte finish areas of the cards if needed.

Be sure to CONTACT me for information on getting a custom business card designed for your business, club, or other organization.

Website Design for Durden Outdoor

Sunday, February 27th, 2011

billboard-website-designWordPress is a great platform to design custom websites for many different business types. WordPress is just the framework which came be themed to look and function for specific needs. Many people who first hear of WordPress think of it as only a blog. I typically like to think of WordPress as more of a content management system.

The Durden Outdoor WordPress website was custom themed to suit the needs of Durden Outdoor team and their goals. The ease of adding new posts featuring up to date projects keeps their clients and potential clients up to speed with billboard advertising in southeast Alabama. Durden Outdoor is based in Dothan, AL and features billboard locations in 8 counties in the southeast. The new website does not feature each location they have but it will soon feature all digital billboard locations.

The custom theme features custom layouts for certain areas of the website.  This was done to give the user a different feel for the media type as they browse the website.  Be sure to check out the digital billboards section.  This page on the site has a completely different header from the rest of the WordPress theme.

Solidworks Drawing of a Manual Tubing Bender

Saturday, February 26th, 2011

sportsman-bender-edrawing4Solidworks allows the designer to create a product on the computer as a complete assemble.  From each drawing in the assembly the product can be manufactured.  Solidworks allows the operator to build the product out and how parts interact.  If there are any moving parts in the assembly they can be cycled to make sure the end result will be desirable before actually manufacturing the product.

The JMR Sportsman Tube Bender project was modeled in Solidworks.  From the 3d Model we can create marketing materials, instruction manuals and more.  The next phase of this project will be creating an assembly manual to be shipped with each Sportsman Tube Bender sold.  Be sure to check back soon.  I will be adding the assembly / instruction manual for the tube bender soon.
