Create a professional website with Neon Lizard Creative. Mobile-friendly design, UX-focused, and built to attract clients fast. Web design + mobile Your website is an extension of your marketing, the portal through which your potential clients can find the details of who you truly are. Get real. CONTACT US YOUR WEBSITE IS THE PORTAL TO YOU Having an effective website design is much more important than you might think. First of all, a website builds brand recognition so that more people can benefit from your products/services. A high-quality web design incorporates SEO tactics to appear at the top of a Google search, increase the number of people who see your business, and in turn, increase profitability. SEO tactics, like targeted keywords, link building, content optimization, classified ads, and even social networking can significantly drive more traffic to your company's website. So often, your website is the first impression. You are asking to do business with them. Your website design should not only be professional and clear about what you do but also be cram-packed with information on how you are the best solution to their business problems. Website Design/Mobile Design services: Web/Mobile // Information Architecture Plan // Copywriting/Editing // Content Creation + Design // Front-End Visual Development // Mobile optimization // SEO + Keyword Strategy // Web Design Auditing + Analytics // Continuous Improvement YOUR WEB DESIGN SHOULD ANSWER THE VIEWER'S BURNING QUESTIONS It is imperative that you focus on your brand values and your competitive advantage to stand out and encourage more engagement which inevitably leads to profitable growth. Your content should be organized, have clarity and your visual presence should align with everything else you have in the public eye. It should draw the viewer in to "have a chat and stay awhile." We believe your website should answer the viewer's burning questions and show plenty of examples about how you solve problems that they experience. It should be your social proof and voice of authority. Most of all, it should ask for the relationship to move forward and fill them with confidence that they have found the perfect business partner. CONTACT US WELL-CRAFTED WEBSITE DESIGN MATTERS ATTENTION CHEAPSKATES: Don't scrimp on the website, it matters! It is what your prospect will carry in their hearts + minds after they log off. That is valuable mental real estate and what will determine whom they remember when they need what you have to offer. A good web design will make it easy for customers to find the information they want to know before making a purchase decision, plus information they need to get in touch when they're ready to buy. Having a well-crafted, carefully planned website will allow you to tell your story, boost your brand, and draw customers into your funnel. CONTACT US BEAUTY FOLLOWS FUNCTION Just like furniture, a beautiful website is a wonderful thing, but if it does not create the desired action, it is a bad website design. Not only will you have a bounce rate that is embarrassing, but your conversions will also be minimal. Preparing your site for SEO is extremely important. Even by doing the basics, you can garner more sales. Optimize really well, and you will climb the ranks as more people discover you. Keywords and metatags are just the beginning, you need to create blogs, social posts, offers, and more to drive traffic to your site and help increase your ranking. It is a never-ending process but one that must be done in this digital age. CONTACT US 78% of all website traffic comes from mobile devices MOBILE IS THE NEW DESKTOP Internet behavior is changing. Today, mobile internet users make up the lion’s share of total web surfers. In response, a growing number of businesses are building new sites or overhauling their current website in favor of a mobile-friendly design. Perhaps you have realized the importance of catering to a mobile user’s experience, but haven't acted on it just yet. You might want to think about that now. CONTACT US Our work SEE CASE STUDIES There are a million design and marketing agencies out there. We include your art as part of the deal, no having to buy the rights.

Stand out in Minnesota with Neon Lizard Creative. Expert print design for brochures, flyers, and catalogs that grab attention and drive results. Contact us! P r i nt + tra d itional market i ng Design Services With the invention of Microsoft Word and DIY software, print design is available to all. Sadly, the quality of design has plummeted. The good news is that it is easier than ever to stand out and grab attention! CONTACT US PRINT DESIGN IS ALL ABOUT HEIRARCHY Print is the original UX/UI. The way a person reads is the driver behind how the information should be laid out. Color, quality, and content are all key players in keeping your client's apt attention. A great design intuitively intrigues, humors and educates to further interest in what you have to offer. Just like digital, your brand design, presence and message must jump out and catch the eye, then your content can lead the way. Print + Traditional Marketing services: Print + Traditional Marketing // Corporate Collateral // Print Advertisement // Brochures + Direct Mail + Flyers // Catalog/Magazines/Books/Menus // Promotional Materials // Packaging + Point of Sale “If you think a good brand is expensive, you should see the cost of a bad one.” Print is not dead. We promise. In fact, it is very much the Lazarus of marketing. Quality design in the corporate realm is a must-do. Too many businesses are trying to make Word act like Adobe, and it shows. Professionals pay for professionals. There is something special about the feel of a beautifully printed catalog or brochure. Many companies are reviving the snail-mail Thank You card, annual reports, and multipage brochures. These are a great way to combine story with products, plus keep the reader focused, no distractions! Plus, these can also be digitized for dual use. CONTACT US MARKETING MATERIALS Print ads or digital ads, "great design is great design." A well-curated brand carries the load, while wit and copywriting drive the action. Having a creative and innovative team who can cleverly approach a product or service promotion is key to the consumer taking the next step of visiting your website or picking up the phone. Marketing materials that further the brand strategy and complement what your client persona experiences via your website design, simply undergird the brand design and identity, strengthening the positive affinity for your company. Print can be a powerful branding tool if done well. Lack of consistency or poor production can cause confusion, dampen enthusiasm, and can even repel a potential client. Your marketing materials need to be just as effective as your website and just as much attention paid to design quality and production. Invest in your presence. CONTACT US PACKAGING, PRODUCT + POINT OF SALE Almost every product needs a package of some kind. It's a known fact that a well-designed product and point of sale display can make the difference between love and indifference. We get that. Our team excels at creating proofs and mockups so that you can be certain your art will resonate with your buyer. Whether it is the messaging at the checkout stand or the skin of the product itself, mockups can save a fortune and allow you to test which design sells best. This was an actual product skin we did so that the client could sell a variety of design styles without the cost of manufacturing. Creating realistic proofs is an ingenious way to save money and test client response to products and packaging before investing in actual production. CONTACT US BROCHURES + DIRECT MAIL + FLYERS Short, to the point and quick. Sounds like a win to us! Brochures are still a practical item for take away information. Direct mail and flyers are both "novel" now when they are received in the mail. The digital realm has emptied our mailboxes and prospects are more likely, now more than ever, to pay attention. Print produces tangible products that are around long after you clicked delete on all those emails. A coupon gets put in a purse or the discounted oil change gets popped onto the fridge. The handwritten card produces an emotion and the travel catalog sits on the coffee table for you to peruse and dream while waiting for the commercials to pass. Print still works. Don't underestimate it. CONTACT US Print is not dead. Contrary to popular opinion of the digital realm, print is gaining a resurgence. With so much in our email and our feed, a direct mail piece in our empty snail-mail really can stand out. CONTACT US CATALOGS + MAGAZINES + BOOKS + MENUS Many believe that people will not study a catalog or read a magazine, but we beg to differ! Multipage projects can be dual purpose, both print, and digital. It allows one to study the content without the constant interruption of ads and emails, then go online via a Flipbook link, type in the desired page number, and click! That click prevents 20 others as it takes you directly to the product-buy page. Magazines are also a great way to inform your client, tell stories, promote affiliates or products, and are even more multipurpose than brochures. Menus, books, and more are still staples in business. Just because the digital realm is louder and more talked about, the stoic printed item is still just as powerful. CONTACT US PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS Don’t forget the promotional materials! We often handle procuring hats, clothing, cups, pens and more for our clients. The tchotchkes we all pretend to hate are very popular with certain demographics. Admit it, that crystal phone holder could come in handy! If it works with your brand and brings a smile to the face of your client, it is money well spent. However, like all the parts of your brand identity, it is important that the item aigns with your values and purpose and does not conflict with your core messaging. CONTACT US Our work SEE CASE STUDIES Whether you need a full rebrand or a virtual creative director to lead the team the right direction, NLC has the chops to keep you moving forward and seeing a positive return on your investment.

Check out this website design case study to learn how we were able to help Joyful Spaces by giving them with the perfect solution in web design, digital marketing & more. BRING JOY AND PEACE INTO YOUR LIFE by having Joyful Spaces declutter, simplify and organize your home or office. Client: Joyful Spaces AZ Industry: Interior Design, Cleaning Services provided: Logo, Branding, Strategy, Marketing, Collateral Design, Print, Social Media, Email Signature, Web Design Case Sometimes, it is just the simple things. A gift or thank you card is the spark of a relationship that lasts for years. Making sure that everything you put forth as a company contains the essence of your brand can make the difference of being a vendor vs. a long-term friend. Joyful Spaces took the time to do it correctly. She did not scrimp or try to save a couple of dollars at the expense of relationship. She understood that we don't know how many clients we may lose due to poor branding. However, you will know how many clients you keep with great, heart-centric branding. It matters. Something a bout color Bright colors, dark colors, red, blue and more, every color has meaning and psychological impact. Joyful Spaces embraced that fact and we chose colors based on the emotional connect it would have for her clients. White space is a good thing. Don't be afraid of it, just use it wisely. Marketing is hard when you over-complicate it. Marketing comes naturally when you simplify it. A website that sells This website is intentionally designed as one long page. Each of the navigation menu items is anchored to a point in the text. We chose to do this because most of Joyful Spaces AZ clients will very likely access her site by phone. Although we always optimize for mobile, this makes it work more smoothly with less error, fast load times and a glide feel that incurs the sentiment she requested. Mobile version The mobile version is more of the same goodness. Slick and quick, it maximizes page content and slides from one frame to the next. Intentional joy. Social media presence Social media is meant for many things. Sales, education, engagement, news, and more. Joyful Spaces Arizona wanted to also be a resource for their clients. JSA feeds include before-and-after examples of her work, testimonials, tips and tricks, news, and stories. Keep an eye on this company, I suspect there might be one near you very soon! NEXT CASE To make sure your visual identity is applied correctly, you need a comprehensive brand style guide that shows your team (and collaborators) how to create on-brand content each time the brand is used.

Authentic, results-driven growth strategies. Reach out today! 25+ years experience. 5-Star. Your Owatonna, MN Marketing Agency Owatonna Owatonna Owatonna Owatonna Finally. A Top Marketing Agency Near Owatonna That Doesn’t Take Itself Too Seriously. (But Takes Your Success Very Seriously.) CONTACT Learn More Big Agency Talent. Boutique Service. Zero Fluff. Stop searching for an "advertising agency near me" or “logo design in 55060” that treats you like a generic line item. We are Neon Lizard Creative (NLC), the agency that is focused solely on you. We are here to help Owatonna businesses catch the eye, grab the heart, and build brands that smoke the competition. Let’s Be Honest: Branding & Marketing Can Suck. Does your current marketing feel overwhelming? Struggling with employee overhead or poor performance? Too many platforms, constantly changing technology, or vendors who "nickel and dime" you to death? And AI…. What to do with that?! The world is changing faster than most of us can keep up. However, the biggest stressor is that: You are simply tired of competitors swooping in and taking business you know you deserve. You don’t need another vendor. You need a dedicated partner to battle the marketing dragon. At NLC, we don’t do suits. We don’t do stiffness. And we definitely don’t do junior designers practicing on your dime. We are a team of senior-level experts with over 100 years of combined experience, ready to make your Owatonna business unforgettable. We have perfected how to use organic media to get the attention and respect you need. And… yes, we understand AI, but don’t depend on it like so many others nowadays. The difference is that we know how important it is to share your authenticity. Humans want to work with other humans and read writing done by other humans. AI spits out the same result repeatedly. We’ll help you differentiate from the competition and let your audience get to know the real you. Efficiency and impact come from planning, not shortcuts with AI.

We specialize in logo and brand identity design that is rooted in strategy. We dig deep into your "Why" (and research your competitors) to create a logo for digital marketing and corporate identity that acts as a flag for your tribe, not just a decoration. We also offer multiple options for the initial presentation so you have a real “choice.” Add our thorough style guide, color variations, and multiple file types in vertical, horizontal, and icon-only formats, and you have all the art you need for any application. Want to go further? We can also create brand style options for you to choose from, ensuring your brand is consistent across platforms. No one else does that! 2. Business Website Design Services (That You Can Actually Use) We provide business website design services that convert visitors into clients. Unlike agencies that hold your site's keys hostage, we specialize in Wix to ensure your site is secure, mobile-optimized, and—most importantly—easy for you to update later without a PhD in coding. We design with WordPress, too. We have teams for both. You choose. • SEO & Content: We build with top marketing agency standards, so Owatonna customers can find you organically. 3. "Hands-Free" Social Media & Growth Stop creating content that dies in 24 hours. We specialize in "hands-free" social media that works while you sleep.

We also help you repurpose content so you can stop shouting into the void and start building relationships. Smart marketing needs a team that knows the tricks of the trade. 4. Print of All Types and Sizes (If You Can See It, We Can Design It) We aren't just digital. We handle print too, of all types and sizes, to ensure your brand looks as good in person as it does on a screen. • Large Format Design: Billboards, trade show booths, and stand-up banners. • Marketing Collateral: Brochures, flyers, business cards, and packaging design. • Signage: Interior and exterior visuals that demand attention. We even procure the printing for you to ensure quality and delivery, so you never have to deal with print specs again. We have many happy clients, but one, MN School of Beauty, will attest that our process has helped them tremendously. For every dollar spent with NLC, they’ve generated $8.00 in revenue over the past two years. Now that is a great return on investment! What makes it more remarkable is that not a dime was spent on paid advertising. We Speak Your Language We aren’t a generalist advertising agency that guesses at your needs. We have deep roots in specific industries common to the Owatonna area: • Construction Marketing Companies: We know how to market to GCs, subcontractors, and trades. We build brands that look as tough and reliable as the structures you build. • Real Estate Marketing Agency: In a crowded housing market, your commercial brand is everything.
