Judul diatas sering ditanyakan pada saya dalam berbagai meeting dan session konsultasi dengan klien. Bagi sebagian orang, internet masih merupakan hal yang baru sehingga menimbulkan keraguan dalam menerapkan pemasaran dan strategi online.
Television still the way to reach mass market, but new media fast-rising, say marketing execs merupakan judulĀ Interview ABS-CBN News dengan Hermawan Kertajaya (President of The World Marketing Association). Isi interview ini menarik untuk dibaca sebagai perbandingan dalam memasuki dunia marketing online.
Televisi dan berbagai media konvensional memang masih merupakan lahan yang subur untuk membangun image, memasarkan produk dan sarana promosi. Sampai sekarang, televisi sendiri masih memiliki penetrasi 90% untuk pasar Asia. Media online hanya mampu mendapatkan 10% dari volume pasar yang ada. (more…)

Marketing and promotion are essential for consumer brand. We can find their consistent approach to various medias from a simple flyers, print ads, TV commercial to events or roadshows in a frequent timing. These conventional approaches are targeted to relevant consumers a brand try to sell the products to. Since it has been hardly pushed, It can be seen at newspapers, magazines, TV, billboards on the side of crowded streets. Though it can be seen ‘everywhere’ offline (noticed or unnoticed) but however, it can’t be seen anytime when a customer needs such information.
Another indication is, many people in this digital age prefers to reach information online instead of reading newspapers and magazines. Most of them don’t even have much time of watching TV. Living in a hectic work schedule has also helped changed the way people access information. Once we heard of some hot topics, we are not going to wait until newspaper updated the news and read it the day after. Turning on the TV to follow the news is almost impossible too, since we are in the office. What we can do is find the computer, open up the browser and go to the news portal to read or watch. (more…)

With vastly increasing of companies and brands online, internet has been a crowded place. Having a website which is not visible to the audiences is an unworthy investment for a business.

After a couple of weeks busy with the concept and design, finally we launched our new Beegamax.com. The old black one has been around for around 2 years now and we thought it is the time for a change.
The new site has improved navigations, main features slideshow with javascript, new case studies and better contents. For the design based, we prefer a very clean and white interface. (more…)

I’ve just stumbled upon these three plugins made with JQuery. Could be good tools for your next web design projects. Enjoy…
Galleria
Galleria is a javascript image gallery written in jQuery. It loads the images one by one from an unordered list and displays thumbnails when each image is loaded. It will create thumbnails for you if you choose so, scaled or unscaled, centered and cropped inside a fixed thumbnail box defined by CSS. The core of Galleria lies in it’s smart preloading behaviour, snappiness and the fresh absence of obtrusive design elements. Use it as a foundation for your custom styled image gallery. Galleria is licenced under the GPL 3.0 Licence.

“Ok, that’s cheap. Let them do the thing.”
These are words we hear too often as a service provider. I really feel helpless when I hear this. Some people just can’t think what are the consequences of buying something cheap. Yes, I know not everything cheap means bad, but normally most of them do. Let’s take an example of a mobile phone. There’re ranges of many brands, types and price. From the cheapest one to the most expensive one. Even if you buy the cheap one, you can still have the basic features like make phone call, text messaging, polyphonic ringtones, camera, etc. But if you buy the one with higher price, you should be able to do more thing with your mobile, mp3 player, video player, camera with higher resolution, video call, etc., beside the basic features.
In creative designs, surely the rules play. The higher you pay, the better result you get. I’ve seen many designers (or mostly college students) advertise their cheap price rather than quality. The cheapest I can see in Jakarta is Rp300,000 for a complete static website. Wow.. I mean wow.. I really love to see how the design look like
. I can bet quality is not a concern here. The design won’t help your business. We all should notice that beforehand. (more…)

What’s the biggest problem of your life as a designer (or web designer specifically)? Designer’s Block? Yes, it is when all you can do is only sitting in front of your computer and doing nothing but staring at the screen. Your brain is empty and you’re totally blank of ideas.
Being creative is not waiting the idea to come across your mind. Deadline is getting nearer and nearer. You should know how and where to be inspired.
To get you started, why don’t you browse this list of web design inspiration sites. All you need to do is just pick one of them with your eyes closed, browse through the site and you should get a blink of idea playing. If one is not enough, then you still have your second chance. (more…)
