  • Family Tradition Steakhouse & Buffet | 30 Years of Great Meals, Now Easier to Find

    Family Tradition Steakhouse & Buffet | 30 Years of Great Meals, Now Easier to Find

    Still the Local Favorite After Thirty Years. Now with a Website to Prove It.

    Family Tradition Steakhouse has been serving Jesup since before most of their regular customers were born. Thirty-plus years. Twenty-five years at the same Sunset Boulevard address. Hand-cut steaks, an expansive buffet, a legendary seafood Friday, and a team of nearly sixty people who show up every day to feed the community they’re part of.

    That kind of history is its own best marketing. But only if people can find it.

    FDM made sure they could.

    Industry: Local Government
    Services: Website Redesign, Google Business Profile, Social Media Integration, Hosting & Maintenance
    Partnership Length: 17 Years


    The Challenge

    Restaurants have always lived on word of mouth advertising. Family Tradition built thirty years on it. But in today’s market, word of mouth travels online first — and when someone new to Jesup searches for a steakhouse, or when a local family is deciding where to go for a special occasion, the first thing they do is look it up.

    Family Tradition needed a digital presence that could do justice to a three-decade reputation. Not a basic listing. A real website — with food photography that makes people hungry, a menu that answers every question before they call, and Google reviews front and center to back up everything the restaurant is already known for.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Making the full menu — steaks, buffet, seafood Friday — accessible and appetizing online
    • Translating 30+ years of community reputation into digital trust signals for first-time visitors
    • Supporting Google Business reviews and social media engagement to drive ongoing local discovery

    The Solution

    FDM built a restaurant website for Family Tradition that’s as warm and welcoming as the dining room itself — with food photography that earns the visit, a menu that covers every question, and the history of the restaurant as a trust-building story for anyone discovering it for the first time.

    • A full menu that covers every offering, organized for easy navigation. Steaks — ribeye, sirloin, chop sirloin, beef tips. The full buffet with hot bar, soup, and salad. Lunch, dinner, and the signature seafood Friday. All clearly presented, all in one place.
    • Food photography that does the work before the first visit. A homepage image carousel showcasing the steaks, the salad bar, the beef tips with peppers and onions. You eat with your eyes first — FDM made sure the website feeds that impulse.
    • An About section that makes the history part of the pitch. Thirty-plus years in business. Twenty-five years at 997 Sunset Boulevard. A team of nearly sixty people. That backstory is a trust signal and the website makes sure first-time visitors see it.
    • Google Business Profile and social media integration that captures reviews. Real people saying real things about Family Tradition and we integrated that directly into the site so prospective diners can see them without leaving the page.

    There are restaurants in Jesup that have come and gone. Family Tradition has been at the same address for twenty-five years. That kind of longevity doesn’t happen without doing something right again and again, meal after meal, year after year.

    FDM built a website that honors that consistency. Because a restaurant that’s been a community institution for thirty years deserves a digital presence that treats the story with the same care the kitchen treats a ribeye.

    The Results

    Family Tradition Steakhouse now has a digital presence that matches their long-standing reputation. New diners can find them, explore the menu, and arrive with the right expectations. Regulars find what they’re looking for before they call.

    Thirty years of great food. Finally easy to find.

    Key outcomes include:

    • Professional food photography and menu pages driving discovery and appetite with online visitors
    • Heritage storytelling reinforcing 30 years of community trust for first-time visitors
    • Google Business Profile integration showcasing reviews that drive new visits
    • Social media integration keeping the restaurant connected to the Jesup community online

  • Wayne County Parks & Recreation | For All Sports, Seasons, & Kid

    Wayne County Parks & Recreation | For All Sports, Seasons, & Kid

    Where Wayne County Kids Play — And Where Parents Register Them.

    T-Ball. Basketball. Soccer. Softball. Football. Swimming. Golf. Tennis. Track. Cheerleading. And Buddy Ball adaptive sports for kids of every ability. Wayne County Parks and Recreation runs programs for children as young as four across more than a dozen facilities throughout the county.

    That’s a lot to manage. And before FDM, a lot of it was still being managed by phone, paper, and in-person registration.

    We built them a website that handles the scale.

    Industry: Local Government / Parks & Recreation
    Services: Website Design, Online Registration System, Hosting & Maintenance
    Partnership Length: 18 Years


    The Challenge

    Running a county-wide recreation department means operating in multiple places at once — different sports, different age groups, different facilities, different seasons. For the staff at Wayne County Rec, keeping registration manageable while also keeping hundreds of parents informed was a constant logistical challenge.

    Parents, meanwhile, needed a better experience. They wanted to sign up their kids online, find out what programs were available for their age group, and know which facility to show up to — without calling the office to ask.

    The website needed to solve both problems at the same time.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Building an online registration system that makes signing up for youth sports simple and fast for families
    • Organizing 13+ facilities and 10+ sports programs in a way that’s easy to navigate
    • Creating a central hub for sports schedules, announcements, and seasonal program information

    The Solution

    FDM built a recreation website designed for volume — one that gives the department the tools to manage programs at scale while giving families the smooth, modern experience they expect.

    • Full online registration with shopping cart functionality. Sign-ups happen online now. No lines, no paperwork, no waiting for office hours. Families register at 10 PM on a Tuesday if that’s when it works for them.
    • Facility directory with photos and details for all 13+ recreation sites. From Gardi Recreation Center to the Soccer Complex to Oglethorpe Landing, every facility has its own page — with what’s there, what programs are offered, and how to find it.
    • Individual sport program pages for every offering. T-Ball, Baseball, Softball, Football, Soccer, Basketball, Track, Tennis, Golf, Swimming, and Buddy Ball adaptive sports — each with age requirements, registration info, and season details.
    • Downloadable guides and sponsorship pages. The full Recreation Guide, the GRPA Athletic Manual, and sponsorship opportunities are all available in one place for coaches, parents, and community partners.

    Wayne County Parks and Recreation doesn’t just run sports leagues — they build community. Their programs connect kids across the county, introduce families to each other, and create the kind of local athletic culture that shows up later in school programs, community pride, and memories that last decades.

    FDM built a website that supports that mission at every touchpoint. Whether a parent is registering their four-year-old for T-Ball at midnight or a coach is looking for the athletic manual before a season starts, the site is ready.

    The Results

    Wayne County Recreation now has a digital home that matches the scale and energy of their programs. Registration is easier. Communication is clearer. And the department can spend more time on the field and less time on the phone.

    That’s a win for everyone in Wayne County.

    Key outcomes include:

    • Streamlined online registration reducing friction for families signing up for youth sports
    • Clear facility directory helping residents find and use county parks and recreation sites
    • Comprehensive sport program pages supporting every athletic offering in the county
    • Central hub for schedules, guides, and announcements keeping the community informed

  • Wayne County Recovery Coalition | Changing the Story Around Recovery One Post at a Time

    Wayne County Recovery Coalition | Changing the Story Around Recovery One Post at a Time

    Prevention Isn’t a Campaign. It’s a Commitment, And This Website Reflects That.

    The Wayne County Recovery Coalition doesn’t show up for a month and disappear. They show up every month — for National Recovery Month, for Mental Health Awareness Month, for every health observance on the calendar — with content, resources, and community engagement that keeps prevention top of mind across Wayne County all year long.

    That kind of consistency takes infrastructure. It takes a platform built for ongoing content, not just a static page.

    FDM built them exactly that.

    Industry: Community Health / Nonprofit
    Services: Website Design, Content Strategy, Blog Development, Hosting & Maintenance
    Partnership Length: 5 Years


    The Challenge

    Substance misuse prevention is a long game. You don’t change community behavior with a single event or a single message. You change it through consistent presence — educational content, community connections, and a platform that keeps the conversation alive even when no one is in crisis.

    The Wayne County Recovery Coalition needed a website that could sustain that kind of presence. Not a digital brochure, but a living content platform — one that could hold blog posts, resources, event announcements, webinar promotions, and partner highlights without becoming cluttered or hard to navigate.

    Founded in 2019 and supported by the Drug Free Communities Support Program, the WCRC had the mission and the drive. They needed the digital infrastructure to match.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Building a content platform that could sustain ongoing prevention education and monthly awareness campaigns
    • Making recovery resources easy to find for community members who need them
    • Creating a credible, welcoming presence that reduced stigma around recovery and mental health

    The Solution

    FDM built a resource-rich website with a content strategy at its core. The blog system, resource library, events calendar, and webinar tools give the WCRC everything they need to keep showing up — month after month, awareness campaign after awareness campaign.

    • A full blog platform with organized content categories. Early Recovery, Long Term Recovery, Prevention, Let’s Talk — each category supports a different audience and a different kind of conversation, making it easy for visitors to find what resonates with them.
    • A resource library built for community education. Downloadable infographics, stigma-reduction materials, and educational resources give community members and coalition partners tools they can actually use in the real world.
    • Events calendar and webinar promotion tools. Monthly coalition meetings, upcoming webinars, and community events are organized and promoted in one place — making it easy for residents and partners to stay engaged.
    • Partner highlights that celebrate the coalition. Sector representatives, community partners, and member organizations each have a presence on the site — because this work only happens because of the people doing it.

    The Wayne County Recovery Coalition was founded in 2019 with a clear mission: change the story around substance misuse in Wayne County. Through the Drug Free Communities Support Program, they’ve built a coalition of community partners, sector representatives, and dedicated coordinators who show up every month — in meetings, in community events, and online.

    FDM built a website that shows up the same way. The content strategy is designed around national health observances so the WCRC always has a relevant message to share. The resource library grows over time. The blog builds a searchable archive of prevention education. It’s not just a website — it’s a tool for sustained community change.

    The Results

    The WCRC now has a digital presence that works as hard as they do. It educates, connects, and mobilizes the Wayne County community around recovery and prevention — month after month, whether anyone is looking at it or not.

    That consistency is the whole strategy. And the website makes it possible.

    Key outcomes include:

    • Content platform enabling monthly awareness campaigns aligned with national health observances
    • Resource library giving community members and partners instant access to prevention and recovery materials
    • Events and webinar tools driving active participation in coalition activities and meetings
    • Professional digital presence supporting the WCRC’s credibility as Wayne County’s go-to recovery resource

  • Harrison Real Estate | Since the 1950s. Still the Standard.

    Harrison Real Estate | Since the 1950s. Still the Standard.

    Seven Decades of Wayne County Real Estate — Brought Into the Digital Age

    Harrison Real Estate Agency has been a trusted name in Jesup and Wayne County since the 1950s. There are residents who bought their first home through Harrison, insured it through their team, and are now helping their own kids search for homes — with Harrison. That kind of generational trust doesn’t happen by accident.

    But in a market where every buyer starts online, legacy only goes so far if you can’t be found.

    FDM built a digital presence that honors seven decades of service while serving today’s buyers exactly where they start: on a screen.

    Industry: Real Estate & Property Services
    Services: Website Design, IDX/MLS Integration, Hosting & Maintenance, Email
    Partnership Length: 25 Years


    The Challenge

    Real estate websites need to do real work. They need a live MLS feed with advanced search. They need agent profiles that build trust before the first call. They need buyer and seller resources that position the agency as an expert guide, not just a listing service.

    For an agency with Harrison’s history and depth — real estate, insurance, residential, commercial, land, rentals — the website also needed to represent the full scope of what they offer. Not a narrow focus. The whole picture.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Providing an IDX-powered property search that gives buyers access to the full Wayne County MLS
    • Clearly presenting both real estate sales and insurance services offered by the agency
    • Showcasing the agent team and building trust with buyers making significant financial decisions

    The Solution

    FDM built a full-featured real estate website for Harrison that honors their legacy and serves today’s online buyers — with IDX integration, agent profiles, and comprehensive service pages working together to deliver the experience the agency’s reputation demands.

    • IDX property search across all listing types. Residential, commercial, land, and rental listings — all searchable from the Harrison website with the full Wayne County MLS database behind it. Buyers get the same database access they’d have on any major listing site, with the personal service only Harrison provides.
    • Agent profiles with photos and direct contact. Kathy Anderson, Kyle P. Keith, Miki Woodard, and every member of the Harrison team are introduced by name and face — because in real estate, people buy from people they trust, and trust starts with knowing who you’re working with.
    • Buyer and seller resource sections that build expertise. Step-by-step guides for buyers and sellers position Harrison as an experienced partner in the process — not just an agency waiting to take a commission.
    • Insurance services as a core part of the agency story. Homeowners, auto, business, life, and financial services — clearly presented as part of Harrison’s comprehensive offering, so clients know from the first visit that this is a full-service partner.

    Harrison Real Estate Agency was founded in the 1950s. Broker David E. Keith and a team of experienced local agents have maintained that legacy through changing markets, changing technology, and changing client expectations. The integrated insurance arm — combining property sales with coverage options — makes Harrison a rare find in small-market real estate.

    FDM built a website that tells that story — and makes it easy for a new generation of Wayne County buyers and sellers to find the agency that’s been there for their families for decades.

    The Results

    Harrison Real Estate Agency now has a modern digital presence that honors seven decades of community service and meets today’s buyers where they start their search.

    Since the 1950s. Still the standard.

    Key outcomes include:

    • IDX property search giving buyers immediate access to the full Wayne County MLS database
    • Professional agent directory building trust with buyers and sellers before initial contact
    • Integrated real estate and insurance presentation showcasing the full agency offering
    • Buyer and seller resource pages positioning Harrison as the expert guide for Wayne County real estate

  • Wayne County Family Connection | Resources for Our Residents in Need

    Wayne County Family Connection | Resources for Our Residents in Need

    The Community Hub Wayne County Needed — Now Fully Digital.

    Wayne County Family Connection already knew how to bring people together. They’d been doing it for years — connecting residents to resources, coordinating with local nonprofits and government agencies, and making sure that when someone needed help, there was somewhere to point them.

    What they needed was a website that could do the same thing.

    Not a brochure. Not a static page with a phone number. A real digital hub — dynamic, accessible, and built to reflect the living, breathing work they do every day in Wayne County.

    Industry: Nonprofit / Community Resource Organization
    Services: Website Design, Online Donations, Accessibility, Hosting & Maintenance
    Partnership Length: 15 Years


    The Challenge

    Community resource organizations face a unique digital problem: their work changes constantly. Programs come and go. Events get added. New resources become available. An organization like Wayne County Family Connection can’t afford a website that goes stale.

    At the same time, the people they serve aren’t always comfortable navigating complex websites. They need information fast — emergency resources, community programs, ways to get involved — and they need it to work on whatever device they’re holding.

    The website had to be easy for staff to update and easy for residents to use. Those two things don’t always go together. FDM made them go together.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Creating an easy-to-navigate resource directory that residents can turn to in times of need
    • Integrating a community calendar to keep Wayne County connected and informed
    • Building in accessibility features so the site could serve every member of the community

    The Solution

    FDM built a community hub — not just a website. Every element of the design was built around one question: what does a Wayne County resident need, and how fast can they find it?

    • A complete resource directory with emergency resources front and center. When someone is in crisis, they can’t afford to search. FDM organized the directory so the most critical resources are always within reach.
    • An integrated community calendar. Events, programs, meetings — everything happening in and around Wayne County lives in one place, updated in real time.
    • A live Facebook feed embedded on the homepage. The most current information shouldn’t live only on social media. FDM pulled it directly into the site, keeping content fresh without adding work for staff.
    • Accessibility tools built in. Screen reader support, contrast options, keyboard navigation — because a community resource organization should be accessible to the entire community it serves.

    Wayne County Family Connection is the connective tissue of an entire county. They partner with nonprofits, local government, schools, and faith organizations to make sure no family falls through the cracks. Their executive director, Kristina DeLeGal, and her team are in the community every day — which means their website needs to keep up.

    FDM’s website works the same way the organization does: as a digital center of gravity that pulls information together and makes it available to anyone who needs it, any time they need it. Whether a resident is looking for emergency resources at midnight or a community partner is planning an event, the site meets them where they are.

    The Results

    Wayne County Family Connection now has a digital presence as welcoming and resourceful as the work they do in person. Residents can find emergency help. They can donate. They can stay connected to what’s happening in their community. And they can do all of it from the same place, on any device.

    That matters. Especially when it matters most.

    Key outcomes include:

    • Centralized resource hub making it easier for Wayne County residents to find help fast
    • Accessible design ensuring the site serves every community member regardless of ability
    • Active social media integration keeping content fresh without extra effort from staff
    • Online donation functionality supporting the organization’s mission directly through the web

  • LIFE Living Independence for Everyone | Serving the Disability Community

    LIFE Living Independence for Everyone | Serving the Disability Community

    For an Organization Built on Access, Accessibility Isn’t Optional.

    LIFE — Living Independence for Everyone — is a Center for Independent Living serving people with disabilities across Southeast Georgia. Their work spans advocacy, peer support, independent living skills, assistive technology, nursing home transition, and more. They’ve earned a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator, a Gold Seal of Transparency from Candid, and a 91% effectiveness score.

    For an organization whose entire mission is inclusion and accessibility, having a website that doesn’t live up to those values wasn’t an option.

    FDM built them one that does.

    Industry: Nonprofit / Disability Services & Advocacy
    Services: Website Design, Accessibility Readiness, Content Management, Hosting & Maintenance
    Partnership Length: 6 Years


    The Challenge

    Centers for Independent Living are held to a different standard when it comes to accessibility — and rightly so. When your entire mission is serving people with disabilities, your website needs to be fully accessible to the people you serve. Screen reader compatible. High-contrast capable. Keyboard navigable. Fully functional for users who rely on assistive technology.

    LIFE also needed a website that could communicate the complexity of their programming. Advocacy, independent living skills, peer support, assistive technology, nursing home transition services, emergency planning — each service deserves clear explanation. Each audience deserves a direct path to what they need.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Building a website that meets or exceeds accessibility standards — practicing what they preach for the disability community
    • Clearly presenting a complex catalog of services including advocacy, skills training, peer support, and assistive technology
    • Creating a credible, professional presence that supports fundraising, volunteer recruitment, and community trust

    The Solution

    FDM built an accessibility-forward website for LIFE that reflects the organization’s values in every detail — from the architecture to the interface to the content strategy. Every decision was made with LIFE’s clients in mind.

    • Full accessibility compliance built into every layer of the site. Screen reader support, contrast controls, font resizing, keyboard navigation — not as add-ons, but as foundational design decisions. Because LIFE’s website should be accessible to every person LIFE serves.
    • Comprehensive service pages that make the full scope of LIFE’s work visible. Advocacy. Independent living skills. Peer support. Assistive technology. Nursing home transition. Emergency planning. Each service has its own dedicated page with clear, accessible explanations.
    • A resource directory connecting clients to additional support. LIFE’s clients often need more than one organization can provide. The resource directory connects them to additional community and statewide programs — without requiring staff to handle every referral by phone.

    LIFE has earned a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator. A Gold Seal of Transparency from Candid. A 91% effectiveness score. These aren’t vanity metrics — they’re the result of decades of genuine, documented service to the disability community across Savannah and Screven, Georgia.

    FDM built a website that reflects that standard at every touchpoint. Accessible. Transparent. Professionally organized. Worthy of the trust the disability community places in this organization every day.

    The Results

    LIFE now has a website that’s as inclusive as the organization itself — fully accessible, clearly organized, and a credible digital home for one of Southeast Georgia’s most trusted nonprofits.

    Because an organization with LIFE’s record deserves a website that lives up to it.

    Key outcomes include:

    • Full accessibility compliance ensuring the website serves every member of LIFE’s client community
    • Comprehensive service pages making it easy for people with disabilities to find the support they need
    • Professional nonprofit presence supporting fundraising efforts and community partnerships

  • Jesup Christians | A Church Home, Online and in Person

    Jesup Christians | A Church Home, Online and in Person

    Open Doors — Online and Off.

    Walnut Street Church of Christ has been meeting in Jesup for years — Sunday mornings for Bible study and worship, Wednesday evenings for deeper study, and all the gathering in between that makes a congregation a community.

    But the doors of a church aren’t just the physical ones. In an era when most people’s first encounter with a congregation happens on a screen, the digital front door matters just as much as the one on East Walnut Street.

    FDM built them a website that opens both.

    Industry: Religious Organization / Church
    Services: Website Design, Member Portal, Sermon Audio Archive, Hosting & Maintenance
    Partnership Length: 16 Years


    Churches serve two very different audiences from the same website. Current members need practical resources — sermon archives, event calendars, member communications. Visitors who’ve never been before need something entirely different: a clear sense of what to expect, what the church believes, and whether this might be a place for them.

    Balancing those two needs — without the site feeling either too insider-focused for new visitors or too generic for the people who call Walnut Street home — was the design challenge at the center of this build.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Creating a welcoming first impression for visitors searching for a church in Jesup
    • Providing members with sermon audio archives and digital resources they can access anytime
    • Clearly communicating the church’s values, schedule, and beliefs to help newcomers decide if it’s the right fit

    The Solution

    FDM built a warm, professional website that serves both audiences without shortchanging either. First-time visitors find a welcoming, clear experience. Long-time members find the tools and resources that make the website an extension of their church community.

    • ‘What to Expect’ — the single most important page for a new visitor. Walking into an unfamiliar church is vulnerable. The What to Expect page reduces that anxiety by telling visitors exactly what Sunday looks and feels like at Walnut Street — before they ever leave the house.
    • A full sermon audio archive with direct playback. Every archived sermon is browsable and playable from the site — so members can revisit a message they found meaningful, and visitors can get a feel for the teaching before they visit in person.
    • A private member portal for congregation resources. Internal communications, a church calendar, and community resources are available to members through a secure portal — giving the congregation a digital extension of their community life.
    • Plan of Salvation and Daily Bible Readings for spiritual engagement. For those searching deeper, these pages offer accessible, scripture-based resources that reflect the church’s commitment to teaching and outreach.

    Walnut Street Church of Christ gathers every Sunday at 9 AM for Bible study and 10 AM for worship, with Wednesday evening studies as well. For members, those are anchor points in the week. For someone considering their first visit, those are just times on a calendar — until the website helps them picture what those times actually look and feel like.

    FDM built a website that bridges that gap. For the congregation, it’s a practical digital extension of their church life. For the community, it’s an open, welcoming invitation. For everyone, it reflects exactly who Walnut Street is: a church that takes both its faith and its hospitality seriously.

    The Results

    Jesup Christians now has a digital home that reflects who they are — a welcoming, teaching-focused church that makes room for everyone. Whether you’re finding them for the first time online or coming back for Sunday morning, the website serves you.

    Open doors. Online and off.

    Key outcomes include:

    • First-visitor-focused design that reduces anxiety and encourages new attendance
    • Sermon archive giving members ongoing access to teachings anytime, anywhere
    • Member portal deepening community connection beyond Sunday mornings
    • Professional digital presence that represents the church’s values and mission online

Jesup, Glennville, Reidsville: each location has its own staff, its own client base, and its own local relationships.

    What they didn’t have was a website that could represent all three — professionally, cohesively, and without making any of them feel like an afterthought.

    That’s what FDM built.

    The Challenge

    Multi-location businesses face a specific digital challenge: how do you represent multiple offices without fragmenting your brand? For O’Quinn & Associates — which operates as O’Quinn in Jesup, Threlkeld Insurance Group in Glennville, and Reidsville Insurance Agency in Reidsville — the answer needed to respect each office’s local identity while presenting a unified agency brand that clients across all three communities could trust.

    At the same time, the digital experience needed to do real work. Insurance clients shouldn’t have to call to make a payment or submit a claim. They should be able to do it from the website.

    Key areas of focus:

    • Presenting three distinct office locations clearly without fragmenting the brand
    • Organizing multiple insurance and financial service categories for easy navigation
    • Providing online tools that reduce administrative burden on staff and improve client convenience

    The Solution

    FDM built a multi-location insurance website for O’Quinn that serves the full scope of the agency’s footprint — clearly organized, professionally presented, and equipped with the digital tools modern insurance clients expect.

    • Dedicated location pages for every office. Jesup, Glennville, and Reidsville each get their own page — with local agent details, contact information, and office photos. Local clients see their office represented with the familiarity they expect.
    • Service category pages organized for clarity. Homeowners. Auto. Business. Life. Financial services. Each coverage type has its own page — so whether a client is looking for a new policy or just needs to understand their options, they find what they need quickly.
    • Online payment portal and customer login. Policy management, payments, and account access — available 24/7, without requiring clients to call during business hours.
    • Online claim submission that reduces friction when it matters most. Filing a claim is stressful enough. Making it easy to do online — without a phone call — is a small thing with a big impact on the client experience.

    O’Quinn & Associates has built something rare in the insurance business: a multi-location agency that maintains genuine local relationships in three distinct communities while operating as a unified, professional brand. Each office has its own name, its own agents, and its own community identity. But they’re all O’Quinn.

    FDM built a website that holds that complexity without making it confusing. Clients know which office is theirs. New prospects can find the nearest location. And the professional, unified design signals that wherever you engage with O’Quinn, you’re working with the same quality agency.

    The Results

    O’Quinn & Associates has a website that works as hard as their agents do — representing all three locations professionally, making policy management convenient, and giving clients the tools they need to manage their coverage on their schedule.

    Three offices. One seamless digital presence. That’s the standard FDM built toward.

    Key outcomes include:

    • Professional multi-location presence unifying three distinct offices under one brand
    • Online portal enabling 24/7 policy access, payments, and claim submissions for all clients
    • Comprehensive service pages making it easy for prospects to find the right coverage
    • Clear educational content and quote functionality driving new business online

    RD3 Georgia Cattle is a new and growing Farm and Forward Digital Marketing was thrilled to help them with their website! FDM worked with Shelby to create a simple One-page Layout Website that matched the Logo Shelby and Ridge had already created! FDM pulled the color scheme from the logo and got to work on the fully responsive website layout! We wanted to make sure the website represented the RD3 brand as well as showed off their adorable new calves! Once the design was completed Shelby was trained on how to maintain the website and keep the content updated! We love how this website turned out! Check out this Project! www.rd3gacattle.com
