🚀 New Website Launch!

We just launched a client's new website: Lake Pointe Travel.

We wrote, designed and built this from the ground up:

✓ Developed a full messaging and branding strategy
✓ Crafted brand-new website content across every page
✓ Designed and built a beautiful, modern, user-friendly experience
✓ Optimized for SEO and AI search, so the site is discoverable, search-friendly

If you want a website that truly showcases your services, tells your story and drives business, reach out to us at [email protected].

We've had too many new clients come to us recently needing us to fix or finish their existing or stalled-out website builds. While we love the business, we really don't want to see this happen to anyone.

So we put a little list together to try to help folks avoid issues that lead to throwing their money away. Check out the top 5 mistakes we're seeing lately when someone hires a website designer/builder.

So excited to see this fabulous editorial feature article on our client Karla K. Morton in this beautiful magazine - Enchanted Outpost!

Each January, social media feeds and email inboxes are inundated with prophesies for the new year. While I typically avoid adding to the noise, 2025 promises such significant shifts that I feel compelled to share my top 5 PR and marketing predictions for the year ahead.

1 – AI-Written Content Will Breed the Need for Authenticity

As AI homogenizes language, it will be easier to spot AI content, and we’ll crave (and prefer) uniqueness and authenticity.

AI is an incredible tool for research, outlines and even jump-starting writer’s block. It cannot, however, replace the expertise, talent and nuanced brand understanding that a professional human content creator can provide.

Those who harness AI as an assistant to enhance a broader, sophisticated approach to content creation will reap the rewards. Those who, instead, rely on AI as a replacement for talent will stumble over their short-sightedness.

Stay tuned for my other 4 predictions!

Is your current website holding you back from achieving your goals in 2025?

If you look closely at most websites, you’ll notice that they either look great OR function well (assuming they aren't outdated), and many miss the mark on telling a clear and compelling story.

That’s because brand storytellers, web designers and web developers speak different languages.

At Thrive, we cohesively bring all the key disciplines together to create modern, effective, best-practice websites that are:

✓ On-brand

✓ Beautifully designed

✓ Compelling and well-written

✓ Easy for users to navigate

✓ SEO-optimized

✓ Engaging and appealing to your target audience(s)

✓ Effective at driving leads and other key actions

Happy holidays from the Thrive team, and thank you to our clients for a joy-filled year. We can't wait to see what 2025 brings!

Nothing makes the work we do more fulfilling than making an impact and receiving client feedback like THIS! :)

“Kelly Kirkendoll and the Thrive team recently created my new website and business logo, and to say I was thrilled with their work is an understatement.

From the word go, the team was professional, poised, and treated me with an amazing level of customer service. I felt like I was being guided through the entire process by top-notch professionals who were eager to partner with me in creating an amazing product.

I greatly appreciated the discovery session that kicked off our work where Kelly asked questions and learned about my business and my approach to coaching. Her insightful questions helped me articulate the magic of what I do.

I watched as she took my answers and created a website that captures this magic. I have had dozens of compliments on it, already, and this is just the beginning.

Thank you to Thrive PR + Marketing for helping my business THRIVE! You live up to your brand!”
