Web Development Projects
Features
We have done several projects for HanesBrands (visit HanesBrands.com), on the most recent of which, as PHP Developer, we coded and implemented an online survey to help them create an effective customer marketing tool. We encrypted and gathered data on the backend for the duration of the survey, after which we processed and analyzed the data in a detailed presentation for upper management. Click on the survey image for an up-close view of one of the survey pages. We cannot reprint the presentation here for confidentiality reasons.
Graphic Design
Features
We also did graphic design for HanesBrands including various Hanes Logos, as well as a Hanes Classics POS sign that we integrated into a planogram we photographed and designed that is currently being considered for placement in Kohl's stores nationwide.
