			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have been working with Jim on a few various projects of his, and his clients. Here is what he thinks about factor1.</p>
<blockquote><p>Matt Adams and Factor 1 Studios has been our “go to” partner from the beginning of our firm and has significantly made the difference in our impact and growth.  Matt has the successful combination of listening deeply while guiding the conversation to realize better ways of communicating our vision and services.  The results has created an offer that has the “wow” factor to draw in the client and engage them in our services.  We have been pleasantly surprised at the added reach of our services through the media that Matt created.  Clients from coast-to-coast contact us purely from what they read and see on our web site.</p>
<p>I highly recommend Matt Adams and Factor 1 Studios for their cutting edge understanding of global communication, the timely delivery of quality designs, professional guidance to keep the edge on our offer, and the integrity of their entire operations.</p>
<p>Matt’s work and care are so highly valued that I recently entrusted to him the presentation of Technology for Small Business to a group of entrepreneurs that I was leading through a ten week session.  His presentation and valuable offer was the highlight of the entire ten week series!</p>

<blockquote><p>Matt Adams and the staff at factor1 have been outstanding to work with over the past 5 months. Matt&#8217;s design talents and understanding of the user experience in web layout and functionality are a key strength. Personally Matt is one of the very best &#8216;web guys&#8217; I have had the pleasure of working.</p></blockquote>

<p>Over the summer we built a large site for <a href="http://www.getcollegefunding.org/">Get College funding</a>. It was actually our first real <a href="http://www.expressionengine.com">expression Engine</a> site, and it went really well.</p>
<p>This video testimonial actually is pretty cool. It shows a great use of technology. Get College Funding is really embracing video rather well into their organization. Its a nice touch, and they find creating these videos a breeze.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are super excited to launch this site. It&#8217;s the all new site for our local Maricopa Chamber of Commerce. Factor 1 (specifically I, Matt Adams), have been heavily involved with the chamber marketing board for a number of years now. We have aided in the planning, creation, and execution of several programs, events, and marketing pieces. All aimed at increasing local business exposure.</p>
<p>This new site will tie in all our past work, and goals. We have found that the user experience of a large site is key to the sites success. With the user in mind, we created this site.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-528" href="http://blog.factor1studios.com/site-launches/maricopa-chamber-of-commerce/attachment/chamber/"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-528" title="Maricopa chamber" src="http://blog.factor1studios.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/chamber-300x260.jpg" alt="Maricopa chamber" width="300" height="260" /></a></p>
<p>It was an amazing site to plan out, and work on. We spent the last few months really refining the user flow, menus, and having fun with great photography.</p>
<p>Terri Kingery, Chamber Director had this to say:</p>
<blockquote><p>Matt Adams and his staff have done a wonderful job in ensuring the transition process from our old website to our new one was seamless and error free.  Their knowledge of social media and the incorporation of Twitter on our home page has, in my opinion, helped increase our traffic by 30%.  I would recommend them without hesitation to any Chamber, or business looking to redesign their website.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>People reference your work whether you think so or not.</p>
<div>Sometimes it is positive.</div>
<div>Other times it is negative.</div>
<div>And, even if it is mediocre or indifferent, that is still a type of reference.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Do you care what people are saying OR not saying?</div>
<div></div>
<div>You should!</div>
<div></div>
<div>Given the 3 options, only 1 of them will generate future work, more &amp; better projects and drive interest towards your company, mission or self.</div>
<div></div>
<div><em>So how do you know what people are going to say?</em></div>
<div>     <strong>I dare you to ASK THEM!</strong></div>
<div>          Don&#8217;t flinch. </div>
<div>               Don&#8217;t be afraid of what they might tell you &#8212; Good or bad, you need to hear it. </div>
<div></div>
<div>If it is good, it will fuel you, motivate you and with permission, you can use it to tell others.</div>
<div></div>
<div>If it is horrible, now you know what you ought to be working on.</div>
<div>OR you are affirmed in your decisions to not to address those items/issues. </div>
<div></div>
<div>If it is indifferent, there is an opportunity there to find out how to create positive, excited individuals, clients or followers. So ASK THEM more.</div>
<div></div>
<div><a href="http://www.factor1studios.com/contact">Here is your opportunity</a> to tell us how we are doing.</div>
