Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
Slam Media Lab started by crafting a brand identity that reflects the essence of CJAM’s values, including a refreshed font, refined color palette, and a cohesive brand system that authentic represents our mission. From there, they designed a dynamic, visually engaging website featuring interactive elements including scroll-based animations and hover effects to draw attention to our work and our website. To maximize online visibility, Slam incorporated SEO best practices and set up Google Analytics and Search Console. They also made sure the site met accessibility standards across the board!
RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Our aim was to design a new website that is uniquely identifiable and that marks a clear and refined departure from the minimalist way we branded CJAM previously. We wanted to foreground an elevated CJAM brand identity, while showcasing the dynamism of our clients equally - and SLAM did exactly that! It’s dynamic, beautiful, and uses colors in a way that feels both modern and true to our identity. The interactive elements make it engaging and keep visitors exploring longer, which has already led to more meaningful interactions and inquiries.
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
The SLAM team insisted on continual and open communication. Their process was action oriented and client-centered. They were clear-eyed about approach, yet they followed our lead. They listened, responded, asked-questions, explored new options, innovated, pivoted, exercised patience, pushed us out of our comfort zone, and always ensured that the process and product met with CJAM's standards and expectations. They delivered excellence. Their well-organized approach and dedication made the entire process among the most rewarding design partnerships we've had.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
We kicked off the project by working closely with Slam on brand discovery, where we figured out the direction of the website. We added our values, examples, and non-examples. The team then went to work on a mood board to show the visual direction of our website. This exercise was followed by working on wireframes to lay out the website's structure and how each page would connect with each other.
Slam started crafting initial designs and iterating based on our sometimes very specific feedback. Once we were happy with the look, they got to work on the development phase, transforming mockups into a satisfying web experience.
They paid close attention to detail, ensuring everything met accessibility standards and were responsive for all devices. Integrations with our email service provider, CRM, and analytics tools were set up seamlessly. Slam also took care of the technical aspects, including SEO and site speed optimization, to ensure we had a smooth and successful launch. Due to their agility and dedication, our site launch had no setbacks. Post-launch tweaks were very few and addressed quickly.
The biggest challenge was the content migration process, consisting of over a thousand pieces of content that ranged from articles and press mentions, to statistics, and research reports. Slam helped us decide how to archive and organize the content, and made sure every last piece of our valuable resources got smoothly migrated into the new platform.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The website is impactful, fast, easy to navigate, shows off our work, is informative and eye catching!!! We’ve received really great feedback from our team, board, and our audience!
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Slam’s project management was very organized. A crucial and unique aspect of our partnership was proactive and responsive the communication. Throughout this project, the team was willing to receive feedback and tackle any question or concern we had. They made sure to hop on video calls with us every week, which really helped keep things on track. They got things done fast and with precision.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
We wanted our new website to be very visual and impactful. Our engagement started with a Brand Discovery Document, where we were guided through the process of breaking down our vision into concepts that the design team could later translate into colors, shapes, and design ideations. From the very beginning, we were able to describe our expectations thoroughly to make sure the Slam team would be able to bring them to reality. We kept the navigation simple at this stage, with a single page divided into single sections. The whole design process was carried out in constant collaboration between both teams, making it possible for us to provide feedback every step of the way. We were first presented with low-fidelity wireframes, and once those were approved, the Slam team was able to move forward with mock-ups. They also provided us with a document where we could insert all website copy to make the building process smoother. We requested additional visual assets for social and operational purposes, such as social media campaign templates and pitch decks, and these were delivered quickly for us to use post-launch. Lastly, we scheduled a meeting to discuss final feedback and were ready to launch.
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
As soon as we launched, we received several comments from partners and other contacts congratulating us on our new image. Having a brand new website as beautiful as ours gave our organization an elevated image overall that boosted our reputation and credibility.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
The website’s design needed to mirror the uniqueness and authenticity of our Italian restaurant. Slam Media Lab kicked off the project by collecting all assets, followed by a brand discovery process, and then jumping into wireframes and structure. This was an important part of the process because we wanted to ensure the website had the right sections, all optimized for search engines. We were scoped to design the following pages: Home, About, Menu, Events, Gift Cards, and Contact.
In the process, we needed a quick landing page to start accepting both reservations and orders. Slam quickly put that together, set-up the analytics (Google Search Console and Google Analytics). After the design phase, Slam built the website, sent me a link to QA, and we launched! They provided live training and documentation so I can make changes to the website in the future.

Along with providing an excellent site, they clearly approached each section of the project and each component with a sense of both customer service and the sharing of expertise. The team was clear on their opinions and justifications while always being mindful of ours. The team is clearly deep with experience and capability as well.

We were totally impressed.

No. And I say this as someone who deeply believes in sharing critical feedback.They were that good. That communicative. That clear-minded. That efficient. They will be my first call for design and I will recommend them to anyone.

Slam Media Lab provided branding and web development services for a business coaching company. The team created wireframes and mockups, set up DNS configurations, and turned them into static and dynamic pages.
The client was happy with the new website, which was fast, beautiful, and scalable. Slam Media Lab was very organized and responsive to the client's needs. They used Notion to manage the project and send quick action items after calls.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.
There were three faces to working with Slam: design, development, and launch!
**Design** We went through a brand discovery process where it was so much fun to see their interpretation of my values. The work was top notch. They did a fantastic job at turning my music, inspiration, and values into mood boards. It just felt right. I loved the colors chosen and the fonts, too. They captured who I am and the vision of Evergrowth! After the brand discovery and logo process, they started working on both wireframes and initial mockups. Really enjoyed seeing the colors, fonts, logo, and wireframes come to live.
**Development** During the development phase, they translated the design mockups into both static and dynamic pages using Webflow, ensuring the website's flexibility, showing up properly on mobile, and ease of future updates. They also set-up all the redirects from all my resources to the new site and setup all the SEO metatags. This was awesome because it allows all my resources to show up properly in search engines. They took care of setting up DNS configurations to prepare for a smooth launch!!! I was so happy to see it out in the world.
**Train** They provided training and documentation through Looms, a walk-through, and a hub on Notion where we can go back and check these resources! The Slam team lives and breathes branding & great design!!!
RESULTS & FEEDBACK
What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
I am so happy with their design work and now having a website that has everything I need (easy to use, fast, beautiful, scalable) to continue growing!
Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?
Slam is super organized!!! They have everything on Notion, send quick action items after calls and send reminders if we miss anything. They send everything prep in advance to review so we can use meeting times to actually discuss the feedback vs spending the time presenting. I was traveling and they made everything easy for me to review.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
I think the best way to explain how impressed I am with Slam is to let you know that getting design right usually takes many steps. But with Slam, they turned my ideas and vision board into a brand that truly represented my needs! I felt truly understood.
Are there any areas for improvement or something Slam Media Lab could have done differently?
No. I only have great things to say about Slam and its great people!!! Thank you for the knowledge, dedication, passion, and hard work!
