Maximize Investment in Technology
A private school won a grant to purchase a new server and install a computer lab. The staff turned to ForeSite for assistance in setting up and supporting the network.
Results:
- Student and staff data backed up on the network
- Inappropriate websites blocked by content filtering
- Help Desk support and network maintenance provided
Solution:
ForeSite knew the school needed to accomplish three important goals:
- Protect critical data from loss
- Control websites students could access
- Maintain the network to keep it running smoothly
ForeSite partnered with the school throughout the project:
- ForeSite assisted with planning, including coordinating with other vendors for construction and wiring. Best Practices were developed for computer use, data backup, and software updates.
- Ongoing Help Desk support gives staff access to technical resources for questions or problems.
The school began a new year maximizing its investment in new hardware and software.
Create Website to Market Theater and Generate Revenue
A nonprofit theater needed a website to inform the public about performances and classes, volunteer opportunities, and ways to donate. Theater management asked ForeSite to create a site a non-technical staff member could easily update.
Results:
- Supporters use one site for information and to make donations
- Ticket and subscription updates can be posted immediately
- Unique site design incorporates elements of the theater
Solution:
ForeSite started with the theater’s three main goals:
- Provide the public with up-to-date performance information
- Highlight the creativity of staff and students
- Make it easy for supporters to donate or volunteer on the spot
ForeSite boosted the theater’s online marketing and revenue generation:
- ForeSite created a website that supports the theater’s artistic and business goals. Custom design elements give the website a unique creative look. The content management system allows staff with no web skills to easily update the site.
- The new website accepts gifts and pledge payments through a secure online portal.
The teamwork between ForeSite’s developers and designers and the theater staff was a rewarding process. The biggest payoff was the excitement of the children who participate in theater programs.
