publication of Western North Carolina, covering five counties in WNC.
This is a content management site (CMS) that utilizes pay subscription
services and integrated online store for downloadable lists on demand.
WCBJ is published once monthly with news flashes as they occur.
Follow-up:
"We researched many web designers working with business journals around
the country, and chose Cube Creative Design. That was one of the best
business decisions we could have ever made!
Other developers
presented quotes beginning at 10 times the total cost from Cube
Creative Design. And none of them could do as much as the Joomla site
that was built for us.
Cube Creative Design has helped us since day one, from simple
questions, to complex solutions for our ever-evolving company. They are
never too busy to answer our questions, or offer technical support that
speaks to the end user, not the techno-geek.
I highly recommend Cube Creative Design for any web development need.
It's obvious that their expertise in publication website design is
quickly making Adam and the folks at Cube Creative Design the leader in
our market. I'm glad that we we're the first publication in Asheville
to work with Cube Creative Design. We suppose that there will be many,
many more to follow."

for the 15 therapists to keep track of new clients, therapy room

designed a custom site that was HIPAA compliant and secure,
implementing an employee portal for all of the above plus company
announcements. The site increased productivity and allowed therapists
to complete more work at home over the Internet.
Follow-up:
"Cube Creative Design created the Web site for my speech therapy
business. It was done quickly and professionally. I listed my needs and
they were met. I run an office with 14+ therapists who need to check
out testing materials, schedule therapy rooms, communicate with each
other easily, receive instructions, etc. Cube Creative Design created a
"pipeline" for my Web site that has made it so easy for the therapists
to reserve materials, reserve therapy rooms, download forms and
anything else needed to run their business from their own computer at
home! They don't have to be in the office to manage their schedules. My
practice manager was taught how to make changes needed to the website
without always contacting Cube Creative, even though we know he is
there whenever we need his help. My Web site is my 'lifeline' for my
business now! Thank you Adam!
