<p>The Marion team helped Flatrock Compression, Ltd. – a natural gas compression rental and contract services company in Houston –  describe what’s best about themselves in a nutshell, and we turned it into a wonderful piece of collateral.</p>
<p>Featuring many images of Flatrock’s spacious site, you get the hometown company has larger than local capabilities. With a 9” x 12” spread with pocket, the brochure itself says they’re big players in their field.</p>
<p>From the Flatrock logo amply applied on every page of the 8-panel brochure, to the blue theme borrowed from the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.marion.com/houston-logo-design.php" target="_blank">logo design</a></span>, to the abstract industrial background behind the custom on-site photography, this marketing piece is saturated in <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.marion.com/houston-brand-equity-services.php" target="_blank">brand consistency</a></span>.</p>
<p>Take a look and tell us what you think.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Marion adds another addition to our portfolio with a new <a href="http://marion.com/blog/?cat=68">brochure design </a>for Electronic Power Design, Inc.</p>
<p><a href="http://marion.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/EPD-logo.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1908" title="Basic CMYK" src="http://marion.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/EPD-logo.jpg" alt="" width="294" height="131" /></a>A Houston-based firm <a href="http://epdltd.com/">Electronic Power Design, Inc.</a> (EPD), is considered one of the top design, engineering and manufacturing companies in the world for integrated electrical power systems.</p>
<p>They are committed to building quality products for their customers, using industry experience and application knowledge to power technological innovation, and creating an environment of personal development for their employees.</p>
<p>One purpose of the brochure was to reflect the growing global presence of EPD, in a diverse number of industries. Hence the imagery of offshore oil and gas platforms, wind mills, solar panels, marine boats and mining projects.</p>
<p>To reflect the identity of the brand, we used red as a secondary color throughout the brochure to match the logo, world maps  to portray EPD’s international presence and a metallic background on the cover for a clean, industrial look.</p>
<p>Also the brochure includes many images of their complex power equipment in cities all over the world and of their manufacturer facilities in Houston, Brazil and China.</p>
<p>EPD chose a 9” X 12”, 12 page, full-color brochure with a pocket in the back with slits for business cards which comes in handy for any inserts up to 8 1/2” X 11”. <a href="http://marion.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/4410-EPD-Pocket-FolderSinglePages.pdf">Electric Power Design Brochure</a></p>
<p>You can also check out another brochure designed by us on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOxjRySZqS0">YouTube</a>.</p>
<p>Can Marion help you create a masterpiece for your company?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://marion.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/All-about-a-mobile-website1.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1573" title="All-about-a-mobile-website" src="http://marion.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/All-about-a-mobile-website1-300x139.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="139" /></a></p>
<p>It’s no secret that mobile technology is starting to become more popular and some sites report that soon mobile devices will replace desktops as the computer of choice.</p>
<p>This is a perfect time for you to get a mobile version of your website. A mobile site is your website in an edited down version to mainly describe what a mobile user would need to know such as directions, phone number, products, services and any special deals you are promoting.</p>
<p>The way it works is when a user goes to yourdomain.com on a mobile device, a special redirect code directs the user to the mobile friendly site format.  Most people who use their phones in order to look at a site only have a minute to view whatever it is they need.  Therefore a mobile site allows them to view your information quickly, without a lot of scrolling side to side and up and down to find what they are looking for.</p>
<p>A few reasons why you should have a mobile site.</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Your  users are at some point going to view your site on a mobile device.</strong></li>
<li><strong>Trends show that smartphones will soon be in the hands of most people.</strong></li>
<li><strong>It’s a great way for you to reach your audience in a way that appeals to them.</strong></li>
<li><strong>Mobile sites are quick to download and more user friendly than websites.</strong></li>
<li><strong>All your SEO efforts for your regular site carry over to the mobile version if you set it up properly.</strong></li>
</ol>

<p>The members and administration of Fallbrook Church are a wonderful asset to the North Houston community, just as their new brochure reflects. In this piece of collateral, you will learn their heritage, their mission and their dedication to the prosperity of all whom they serve.</p>
<p>Fallbrook Church continues their legacy of community service with the development of a youth education building, meanwhile providing numerous outlets for safe, family recreation.</p>
<p> Originally having the idea to comprise an eight-page spread, Marion ultimately condensed the text into a tri-fold which opens to reveal the church. Our designers feel this particular layout creates a stronger impact to better express their mission. Accentuating this image are candid snapshots of the community, depicting the church’s positive influence and cohesion.</p>
<p> With a new avenue to deliver their message of community unity, Marion is optimistic about Fallbrook&#8217;s future and wishes all the best on their philanthropic endeavors.</p>
