Our Parish Council decided that we needed to advertise using a website. We turned to Focus One Design, whose CEO is Ms Karen Orman. She had designed the Diocese of British Columbia Website among others, and we really liked the design. Thus, we contracted Karen to set up our website and maintain it for the last two years.
Why Focus One Design? Well, the short answer is that Karen truly “listens” to one’s needs and designs a tailor-made solution. Moreover, she is extremely flexible and patient; these are crucial qualities in dealing with church councils, who are notoriously slow in making decisions with parishioners’ monies. Nonetheless, her patient and professional guidance has paid off in spades. We have increased our membership by many young families, who sought us out via our website. I am told that we have but seconds to attract a reader and hold his or her attention. Karen has done that for us. Therefore, I unreservedly recommend Karen Orman and her Focus One Design Company to any business, seeking to spread its message.
Karen is a winner! Any company hiring and using her knowledge of web design and marketing will be a winner also.
