A New Trip for WeDrive California



Scenic drives, automotive events, auto industry news and government news that affects your right to drive happy - that's what WeDriveCalifornia.com is all about. Brought to you by the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, WeDrive California is a news and information resource for all things automotive.

When it was time to re-examine how the WeDrive California web site fit into the most recent marketing initiative, Blast Advanced Media was asked to help bring it more in line with the updated philosophy and visual direction. We reviewed the organization’s position and online strategy and through consultation with the client established a concept that reflects the values of the new campaign. Through custom CMS modules, the organization's representatives are able to maintain a meaningful dialogue with site visitors by way of timely news, event and article updates.

How much Does It Cost?

As you consider the next web development or marketing project your company plans to undertake, the above question may be foremost in your mind - it may even be the main criteria you use to qualify potential bidders. When shopping for quotes most times a client's first question will be "how much does a web site cost?". This is much like walking into a car dealership and asking how much a car costs. Which car? With what features? You may find what you are looking for at two different places for a minimal difference in price but one dealer may upgrade the wheels, the other may throw in air conditioning. Which is a better deal? Well, do you live in Alaska or Arizona - it all depends on your needs and your perspective of what is important.

A web site can be just a web site, but if you really assess your businesses needs it can be so much more. When the focus of building your web site becomes meeting customer needs, improving the qualities of your brand and bringing them to life online through design, content, and functionality, "How much does a web site cost?" becomes "How much of an investment should we make to achieve our businesses goals?"

For your clients, a website can provide a compelling, interactive experience with your brand, product or message - at a very affordable price by comparison to alternative forms of marketing such as television, radio or print. It's online marketing. It's advertising 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year. Advertising that your customers can control and influence in some cases. Only through online marketing are your customers able to directly interact with your brand and every interaction your customer has with your brand can provide your business with valuable insight into their needs, habits, concerns and suggestions. In the long run, the investment in your online marketing can pay off in improved customer loyalty, greater brand awareness and a healthy bottom line.
