Giving Thanks - This has been a great year for 90 Degree Design so far! We are so thankful for our families, our friends, and our clients.

Owner, Anna C. felt that a digital transformation was needed as well. The upgraded website now has a…

This year, we at 90DD, discovered a non-profit cause we didn't even realize existed: Pug Rescue!  Being extreme pug lovers, it never occurred to us that there were actually pugs out there people didn't want - or worse - even abused.  After all, our office Pug Winston, whom we're quite convinced may actually been the reincarnation of Ghandi, is practically royalty - and is treated as such. So when we happened upon a Call for Entries into the Mid Atlantic…

In the last quarter of 2011 we have launched several new client websites!

Counsel Test Prep - www.CounselTestPrep.com - Counsel Test Prep is company offering courses in legal studies test preparation such as the Bar Exam and the LSATS.  The client asked…

The Winter/Spring issue of Traditions Magazine is out and the feedback is this is the best edition yet to be published. Traditions welcomed over 13 new advertisers to the issue due in part to the many small businesses that are opening in the Sandhills area. The design isn't too shabby either, so check it out if you're down that way!

The final quarter of 2010 has been most kind to our little design firm. We are pleased to welcome 4 GREAT new clients with whom we are very excited to align in 2011. Barefoot Golf Vacations, a golf package group located in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, will be looking to us to take over management of their current web presence and implement a proactive quote and lead generation program through a multi-pronged internet, search engine and email marketing campaign.…
