Creative Brief

VirtualRoof.com Website

Website

Information Technology

www.virtualroof.com

We are a cloud computing company that actually host common desktop software applications (MS Office, QuickBooks Pro, etc...) on our servers that our customers access via the internet. VirtualRoof.com is a new brand for the same business that we have been in for 8 years under the name ACTRemote.com. We started out just hosting ACT! by Sage, which is a desktop CRM product. Very quickly we began hosting other business applications. Using our services a company with multiple locations and employees that work from home can have a central location for all of their software and data. That allows their employees to do their computer work from anywhere in the world and still be under one virtual roof. We also provide full service IT. That means we take care of all the typical IT responsibilities within a company and provide them with more state of the art technology and services than they would have been able to otherwise afford. When a company signs up with us, they reduce their IT responsibilities down to just an internet connection, we handle everything else for them, so they can focus on their core business. Our target customers are small to medium size businesses (5-50 employees) who would love to have a high tech computer system with IT professional(s) to support it, but can't afford it. We can give them the most advanced systems that exists, so they can have everything that the large corporations have, at a fraction of the cost and headache.

I like bold strong colors. I dislike pastels and soft colors. We want to communicate strength, speed and high tech. I like a little flash but not much. I only want flash on the things we want to call attention to - like the "live demo" buttons.

The web site should have a similar "feel" to the brochure and banner/sign project that was recently finalized. Banner draft 4: http://orders.logodesignguru.com/contests/virtualroof-com-banner-sign Brochure draft 17: http://orders.logodesignguru.com/contests/virtualroof-com-brochure Thanks, DCarr

    Anindya, Re: Draft #12. Thanks for your new design. It is looking better. A few changes. I would like to see more metallic silver on the site. For instance the buttons that say "Launch Live Demo" could be in a shiny silver color. Like a chrome look. I would like the site to have more silver/chrome shine to it. Secondly, I would like the iPad image to be more like the original one with all the iPad application icons on it. It will be more recognizable as an iPad that way. Third, under the applications hosted section there needs to be an items that says "Many more...". Also the last digit of the phone number is cut off. It should be 407-965-0655. Thanks, DCarr

    Nawalruby, Re: Draft 8 Thanks for your design submission. I generally like the overall look and feel of the site. It is fresh and feels "active". However you obviously went to our other web site (www.actremote.com) and used some of what you saw there in this site. We are making a break from that site. That site focuses primarily on one software program (ACT! by Sage) and that is fine for THAT site. However, the main reason we launched "VirtualRoof.com" is better communicate our "all encompassing" service, since we equally host many other software applications which allows a company to have all their employees operate as if they are all under one roof. So, we really do not need any of the content from actremote.com on this site. Second, we don't currently have a blog or any social media. I appreciate your adding those things and reminding me that we need to have them, but we simply don't have the manpower at this point to take on those projects. So I don't want them on our site. We do plan add them later. Third, I did not see much of the content that I had requested in the word document that was uploaded to the site. For example, it is very important that we let people know that they can login from an iPad. That was part of the content in the word document, but it is not in your design. Thanks, DCarr

    Anindya, Drafts 2-6: Draft 5 is my favorite. I like the clean look best. The less text and the more pics or empty space the better. The iPad tab needs to be spelled just like I did it here, with a lower case "i" and an upper case "P" (iPad). The words "virtual roof" at the bottom of the page, needs to in a darker blue color or any other shade that doesn't make it look like a hyperlink, because it won't be. All I really want to do is give it an emphasis in order to make a connection with the company name. So any way you want to do that might work. I want the site to give a feeling of strength and have a futuristic feel. Sort of like the "Terminator" movie. Thanks, DCarr

    I failed to mention this in the brief, but the phone number (407-965-0655) should be prominent in several places on the page with the phrase "Call us now" or "Call us today for more information". There should also be a link that says something like "Want us to call you - click here" or "We'll call you - click here."

    I uploaded my business cards for reference purposes, so you can see what they look like and get a feel for what I like. I also uploaded several versions of the logo so that if need to use different versions in different places on the site, you can. My favorites are the ones with the tagline and slogan. Please do not use the word document as a guide for how I want the site to look. It there for content only. I much prefer you all use your creative gifts to come up with the design, layout and "feel" of the site. I DO NOT care where the navigation bar goes. I selected left only because I had to select something and that was the default setting. Please place it where ever it looks best and pay no attention to that selection or to the placement in the word doc. I need to make a decision really quickly on this project. That is why I chose to expedite it. Of course, I will not make a decision until I feel like I have everything just right, but I do have a major deadline that has to be met. So PLEASE DO NOT WAIT to submit designs until the last day. My last two projects were finalized after only 3 days and the other only lasted 1 day. Thanks for participating in my project. DCarr
