We just launched the new website for our friends Andrew Jackson Jihad. The Phoenix band needed a site that was easy for them to update and easy for their fans to use. The responsive website design looks great on computers, ipads, other tablets and phones.

The new website uses WordPress as the content management system. When the band posts an update, it is syndicated across their Facebook, Twitter and Tubmlr profiles. It also integrates YouTube, BandsInTown and Twitter, making it easy to maintain and keep current.

IC Catholic Prep recently changed their name from Immaculate Conception High School. The Elmhurst, IL, high school needed a new website to match their updated identity. They also required a website that was easier to manage and use.

The new IC Catholic Prep website was designed and developed by Leadtooth. The website utilizes a custom WordPress theme. The website utilizes Google Calendar, making event management a breeze. It also includes a teacher portal and customized Google Maps integration.

Leadtooth also provided collateral design for IC, including the school’s alumni magazine, new student postcards, letterhead, envelopes, mailers with variable data printing and posters.

DK Condo, Chicago’s largest homeowner association management company, needed a website that better illustrated their capabilities and managed association portfolio. Leadtooth worked with upper management and the internal marketing department at Draper and Kramer to fully understand their website needs.

The new DK Condo website provides detailed information for all of the company’s 90+ homeowner associations. It also provides easy access to important homeowner tools and integration with their management system.

The website design was created to be unique, yet compliment the company’s new branding and the other websites developed for Draper and Kramer by Leadtooth. These websites include dklivingapts.com, dkcommercialre.com and dkmallonre.com.

Leadtooth has been working on some exciting projects for Draper and Kramer lately. We recently completed a rebranding and new website for their rental property management division, D&K Living.

The goal was to provide a flexible and clean design. It’s simple and casual look provides a contemporary look for the company.

The focus of the new website was to clearly present the company’s capabilities. We also needed to showcase the properties in their portfolio. We used WordPress as the foundation for the new site and customized the hell out of it. Using WordPress custom fields and some javascript, we were able to create a website that is comprehensive while still being easy to manage.

XEX Salon recently picked up a few Kindle Fire tablets. The intention was to allow clients to “Like” the salon on Facebook while they were waiting for their appointment. Leadtooth created this simple Facebook app to the Kindle Fire to make it happen.

When clients pick up the Kindle, the first thing they see is XEX’s Facebook app. They can “Like” the salon without having to visit Facebook.

Thanks to this little app, XEX has seen a nice rise in traffic to their Facebook page and website.

Stop by XEX at 35 West Wacker Drive, Chicago, to test out their custom Facebook app yourself!
