Unless you were a team member or a board member who knew exactly what to look for, you wouldn&#8217;t have a clue what CWDB did. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>We wanted to help them fix that. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><em>What We Did<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1) <strong>We started with a new domain name. <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The organization had changed names, but the website address still reflected the old. We incorporated a new domain that would reflect all areas of organizations and regions covered under the umbrella of the Central Workforce Development Board, thus creating the Central Workforce Development Region. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2) We designed a new logo. <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We incorporated the arrows into the logo to represent moving forward in all areas of business. Part of the Central Workforce Development Board umbrella includes Missouri Job Centers, and due to COVID-19, some of the way they do business in the future will change, which will continuously involve forward thinking. We wanted to reflect that the best way we could.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"405\" src=\"http:\/\/www.orangezebramarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/OZM-LOGO-PORTFOLIO.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-278\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3) We designed a website everyone will benefit from.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We built a mobile and web-friendly website that was both simple, yet well-designed.
