Enlighten Launches New Site for University of Michigan Athletics

Ann Arbor, Michigan (PRWEB) June 19, 2015

Leading independent digital media, design and technology agency Enlighten today announced the launch of ThisisMichigan.com (http://thisismichigan.com), a first-of-its-kind athletics recruiting hub for the University of Michigan Athletics department. Ann Arbor-based Enlighten was retained by the esteemed college – which counts Google co-founder Larry Page and football great Tom Brady among its alumni – to execute an extensive responsive website design that would assist U of M in continuing to attract the caliber of talent that has already generated 56 national championships, 307 individual championships and 150 Olympic medals.

In the Define phase of the project, Enlighten interviewed every University of Michigan coach along with potential recruits, recently signed recruits and current student-athletes to assess their recruiting site needs and digital behavior. The resulting web destination incorporates innovative design trends and such visual assets as student-produced imagery and original video, created in collaboration with third party video production vendor Dark Spark Media. Behind-the-scenes features provide potential recruits with a candid, in-depth look at the University of Michigan, its world-class Athletics program and the city of Ann Arbor, ranked 13th Best Place to Live in the US by Livibility.com in 2014.

Site sections include Academic Success, Health & Welfare, Leadership & Career, Campus Life, Traditions and For Parents & Advisors, and are supported by rich visuals, video and original copy to assist visitors in the decision making process. In the We Are Michigan section, dozens of interactive testimonials from past and present University of Michigan athletes are coupled with bold photos and social media feeds to create an engaging and memorable site experience, while the Experience Michigan interface offers both Ann Arbor- and Campus-specific galleries and insider facts to familiarize visitors with the area.

The site delivers information on all 31 of the University of Michigan’s sports teams, and is completely responsive for use on desktops, tablets and smartphones of all kinds.

“Recruiting sites for university athletic programs are rare, but in the competitive world of athletic recruiting they’ve become critical to securing top talent,” says Tom Beck, President of Enlighten. “ThisisMichigan.com goes beyond facts and data points to tell the compelling story of the program, its participants and the beautiful city of Ann Arbor in a visually dynamic and wholly engaging way.”

Digital Printing On Demand: Facts and Tips

Stop thinking and imagining! Digital online printing is here and it is the most significant technology for printed media production today. It describes the systems and equipment that produce printed sheets at one or both sides using different technologies of imaging with one or more colors. It also defines the printing-imaging processes where the film and/or plate making processes are eliminated and where printing takes part exactly after the prepress production process. Aside from high definition colors, patterns, multiple designs that can create using digital online printing, many businessmen and investors ventures in printing company business because the demand is high so as the profit.

Imagine how efficient your printed communications would be if you’d personalize each message, customize your copy, change visuals, and address each individual on a one-to-one basis. Imagine a means of communication that could print-on-demand, without cumbersome film, plates, proofs and make-ready always.

Digital Printing as of today is very essential. Before many people don’t want to have their documents printed with colors because of three main problems; first, they’re expensive. Second, many commercial printing companies accept only a small or limited amount of digital file types. Third, dealing with the printing company can be very tough especially when acquiring the right specifications for the printing job and some customers sometimes are disappointed with the result.

But as Digital Printing Technology evolves, Digital Printers become more affordable for people. Because of this many costumers chose to have their document printed digitally. As costumers increase so will the demand. As the demand for Digital Printing increases so will the number of Digital Printing Companies.

Here are the benefits of using digital printing.

• Save time. You go directly from the computer to the printed publication and print exactly the quantity you intend to use.

• Increase accuracy. You get to update documents quickly and economically every time you print.

• Customize documents. Your marketing communications go from standardized and impersonal to targeted and personal.

• Print on demand. You print what you need when you need it. Ready-made designs and lay-out are readily available.

• Distribute and print. Your documents can be printed virtually anywhere through a worldwide network of digital printers.

• Achieve high quality. The quality of digitally printed documents is defined and evaluated not only from printing but also by the overall quality of the final product’s appearance.

• Increase flexibility. You could select papers and formats that suit your applications and appeal most to your audience.

• Increase effectiveness. You’ll experience a great increase in sales and profits especially when the printing company produces new and unique printed materials.

Digital printing isn’t just a way to print; it’s a revolution in effective communication.

Normally, costumers would spend money and time for image setting, proof printings and etc. It shortens the process; eliminate the places where it usually comes to unwanted errors. Since with such errors means additional printing costs and time, you don’t want to end up doing what you have already done, do you?

AdBoom Group, Inc. Looks To Monetize Average Joe’s Social Content With Hashtag Ads





AdBoom Group, Inc. has launched a new platform Hashtag Ads, currently in beta, where advertisers and social influencers can join forces to enhance an advertisers’ presence on the web. The platform provides an opportunity for anyone to embrace their power of social influence and utilize that potential to boost a company’s campaign — all while making some money.

Hashtag Ads offers a sign-up option for social influencers who have a substantial presence via social media, and advertisers who desire to strengthen their company’s social media presence by driving high-quality traffic to their business or brand. Hashtag Ads provides an easy-to-use platform for social influencers to connect with an advertiser’s campaign, depending on the social influencer’s niche and area of interest.

Essentially, an advertiser creates a campaign focusing on a specific call-to-action, whether it be driving traffic to their website or obtaining email sign-ups. The campaign is then circulated to relevant influencers, reassuring advertisers that their campaign will be promoted to the right social audience. Once matched, an influencer will promote an advertiser’s campaign while Hashtag Ads offers real-time metrics! The advertiser is able to measure the increase of their revenue and social media presence while the campaign is running.

Unlike other social media advertising platforms, Hashtag Ads guarantees that an advertiser’s campaign will achieve its goal. If an influencer’s traffic is not meeting the advertiser’s desired ROI (return on investment), the advertiser has an opportunity to optimize the campaign by allocating their budget to only top performing influencers while removing it from influencers where the campaign wasn’t a fit.

Designed with efficiency in mind, Hashtag Ads’ innovative platform allows businesses to enhance their social presence by pairing them with ordinary social influencers, who can then monetize their presence. Additionally, businesses can feel secure in promoting their campaigns with social influencers as Hashtag Ads guarantees quality influencers and promotion through their software. Hashtag Ads beta platform is compatible with Facebook and Twitter, and additional platforms are in the works.

About AdBoom Group, Inc.:

AdBoom Group, Inc. is a San Diego-based technology company focused on innovation in advertising and technology solutions for driving customer acquisition. With its wide network of social and native advertising channels, AdBoom Group, Inc. has the ability to reach millions of people.
