Avnet, one of Arizona's largest employers and a Fortune 50 corporation, has been running the Avnet Tech Games for several years. Students compete in a variety of technically challenging "games" such as building robots, solar-powered devices, high-speed computers, even making marketing pitches and designing factory floors.

AAEE is the state branch of the National Association for Environmental Education. Rather than being satisfied with the national association’s turnkey website template, AAEE worked with Z-Com Creative to develop an entirely custom user experience.

University Animal Hospital is the largest and most successful veterinarian practice in Tempe and one of the longest-operating in Arizona. Owner Thomas Gus is a forward-thinking business owner who understood the value of engaging with the online community at a very early date.

Z-Com Creative has built three iterations of the UAH website over the years. This latest version is built on the Drupal platform and features extremely easy-to-use website management tools. The site’s vast content is now handled by a former technician.

The Animal Defense League of Arizona and Z-Com Creative are long-time friends. We love their mission and have had a close relationship with its leadership for many years. What better candidate for our proof-of-concept of our Association in a Box product?

We felt ADLA had a lot of needs common to nonprofits: a communication and organizational hub for an active membership, social media tools, a resource directory, and basically a need to work with a diverse population of users.

Nature Quest Arizona provides a database of “nature quests,” educational treasure-hunts featuring map-following games and learning opportunities. Nature Quest Arizona is a subsidiary of Be Outdoors Arizona (another Z-Com Creative nonprofit site), and is that organization’s first tangible deliverable.

Be Outdoors Arizona is a nonprofit organization dedicated to getting kids into the outdoors. It is closely affiliated with the Children and Nature Network.  The goal of this website was to create a quick and easy website presence from which we can build into the future.

Tri City East Veterinary Hospital is a full marketing package. We started with a new logo design, storefront signage and other identity materials. The conversion-driven website is the final and most important component of the package.

Swing Real Estate specializes in both high-end North Scottsdale homes, and commercial properties typically owned and operated by the folks who can afford those homes. Our goal with the Swing Real Estate website was to bridge that commonality and speak to the same audience on two parallel topics.

Z-Com Creative can, schedule allowing, handle very small, very quick deployments like the one seen here. Sonoran Waste Disposal is a waste hauling company with a twist: They clean up construction sites and recycle what they can from the waste they pick up. Pretty cool.

Anyway, this site was built with budget in mind first and foremost. We used a nice template, did some lightweight customization, and got the site rolled out immediately. Because we built the site on the Drupal CMS, it’s easy for the client to maintain and will be easy to expand in the future.

Patrick Burt is an artisan jewelry sculptor in Tempe. Pat does great work but has to compete with big-name jewelers and chain operations. Z-Com Creative built a robust, searchable product catalog for Patrick Burt Studios, featuring various taggable criteria, Paypal integration, and a couple photos of each item. The catalog currently features several hundred items, all managed by the client.
