BlackBean | Industrial Marketing was hired by Experience Wine Tours, a boutique wine tour business, to refresh their website that had been built five years prior. The co-founder noted the need to streamline business services and ensure strong exposure in a saturated market. The selection process involved online searches and friend recommendations, leading them to BlackBean. A team of three including the owner, project manager, and developer collaborated with the client to discuss brand and website objectives, ultimately delivering detailed wireframes in a seamless process.

For the Skills Centre, a nonprofit that provides skills training and employment services, BlackBean took on a complete overhaul of their outdated website. The communications & marketing lead desired a site that was efficient, modern, mobile-friendly, and reflective of the diversity in their community and staff. BlackBean stood out among other agencies as responsive to the client’s needs. The vendor conducted research on the existing site’s strengths and weaknesses, proposed new features, and worked with the client regularly to fine-tune the details. The entire process was conducted virtually, with BlackBean making it easy for the client to view and comment on their progress.

Altec Integrated Solutions, a manufacturer of precision machinery and automation, sought the services of BlackBean for website development, SEO strategy, PR, print, and display ads. The Business Development Manager found BlackBean through an online search, choosing the agency due to their high ratings, great culture fit, and aligned company values. A team of 2-5 employees from BlackBean worked with the client to deliver a wide array of services including website strategy development, brand research, search engine optimization, paid search, print and display marketing, sales enablement, trade show marketing, design marketing automation, and social media consultation.
