WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.--(June 29, 2012) --Cydcor, the leading provider of outsourced professional
sales services, announced that the company’s new website has been awarded the best-in-class 2012
Interactive Media Award (IMA) for the B2B category, as well as the 41st Creativity Media Silver Award.
Launched in January 2012, Cydcor’s new website design won the Interactive Media best-in-class Award,
Best in Class in the B2B category, the highest honored bestowed by the Interactive Media Council. With
a score of 484 out of a possible 500 points, the website’s feature functionality received a score of 99 out
of 100. Cydcor’s site has interactive aspects, with impressive animation such as trees growing and
people walking.
Cydcor’s website design also received a silver award in the 41st Creativity Media and Interactive
Competition. With an increase in submissions of 84%, the Creativity Media Silver Award is given to only
the top 25% of entries that are considered by judges to be an example of outstanding creativity and
design.
Cydcor partnered with San Diego-based Mel Lim Design (MLD) who led design for the site and Los
Angeles-based Coalition Technologies which was engaged to handle the sites development. "This is a
true partnership between Cydcor and the talented teams at Mel Lim Design and Coalition Technologies,”
said Chief Operating Officer Vera Quinn. “We were seeking to create an experience with Cydcor’s
website that is as special and unique as our company is, while appealing to our clients, team members
and field sales force. We are honored that the website has received such prestigious awards.”
First establishing metrics to measure against Cydcor’s business and marketing goals, MLD coordinated
with Cydcor’s executive team to develop a creative strategy with fresh solutions for a website redesign
that would connect with customers most effectively. The final design reflects those metrics, transformed
into creative visual assets that blend a psychology of color and font with unique, hand-drawn
illustrations on each of 30 pages that tell a compelling story, engaging emotionally with the reader.
"At MLD, our high standards, core values, and holistic approach to understanding clients lead us to
unique processes, methods, and solutions that help our clients achieve their goals. The awards we
consistently win serve as further validation that our work is cohesive, meaningful, and imminently
strategic, and we are honored to be recognized by both IMA & Creativity Media Awards,” said Principal
and Creative Director Mel Lim.
Los Angeles-based Coalition Technologies then integrated the logistics that helped tie the entire project
together. A full-service web design and online marketing agency, Coalition Technologies gave life and
interactivity to the redesigned website. "The Coalition Technologies team is proud of our work and
happy that we were able to help Cydcor successfully present their brand as current and forward thinking
by employing HTML5 while ensuring that their website's SEO structure was built correctly," said
Coalition Technologies President Joel Gross.
