We got burned.

Web design company gets burnedWe’ve never done stingy business. Our clients know that we always do what’s best for the project and sometimes that means doing something that requires us to have trust in them.

It was always sort of easy to have the trusting mentality because we had never been burned… until that fateful day.

Long story short – we wen’t out on a limb and did extra work that would have been compensated for at the end of the project, but they bailed.

How Liquis began

I was an application analyst for Abrazo Health with degrees in Web design and development, my passion. I continued to climb the corporate ladder while Andy, our marketing director and daughter of my lady friend, started bringing me in on freelance design jobs through HMA Public Relations.

Your checklist for fun this holiday season

IMG_3090.JPG

To all of you celebrating this holiday season we wish you all the best it has to offer! To make sure you don’t miss a beat, here are the top 10 must-dos between now and New Years:

1. Grab some hot cocoa and take a stroll to look at Christmas lights in a ritzy neighborhood and wave to people like you live there too.

2. Dress your dog up in costume. If you don’t have a dog, dress up your car.

3. Elf yourself.

4. Ladies, get a festive pedicure. Gentlemen, sport your holiday ties.

5. Strategically place yourself under mistletoe as often as possible.

6. Attend an ugly sweater party and really go for that winner’s prize. Hey, somebody has to win.

7. Don’t let the eggnog go to waste.

8. Hit the after-Christmas sales for next year’s festive decor.

9. Don’t take the lights down just yet, you got them up late after all.

10. Make sure you’re not in the bathroom when the clock strikes 12 on New Years. There are no re-dos!

Happy Thanksgiving. We are thankful for you!

Happy ThanksgivingIt’s true. We have the best jobs ever because of you!

This is one big thankful shout out to all our clients, fans, followers and friends. Have a happy and full thanksgiving!

From the bottoms of all our hearts,
The Liquis Crew

P.S. Who isn’t hungry for pumpkin pie right now?

We’ve moved!

We are so thrilled that we had the opportunity to nab this awesome space in the Northwest Valley. There’s still the one-big-collaborative-room vibe we had before and we can’t say enough about the awesome restaurants below the office.

We’re still getting settled, but give us a call if you’d like to come check out the new diggs and do lunch!

The poster with the most likes, wins! Check out the official rules to make sure you’re doing it right and good luck!!!

We're leaving town! (For a week)

wedding stampAs you already know, our design director and general manager are getting hitched! The wedding is July 17 in Newport Beach and the whole office is taking a road trip. Of course we’ll be taking this opportunity to “get our tan on” the rest of the week, but don’t fret, we’ll back. If you have an emergency, please call 911, otherwise leave us an email or voicemail and we’ll return your message when we get back to the office. Okay don’t call 911, we’ll have our smart phones and will get back with you if you have a design emergency.

Surfs up!

The Liquis family is growing!

Andy'sBabyThat’s right, I’m expecting my second child this November and am soooo excited! I’m finally starting to show and I could tell some clients were noticing, but were too polite to say anything…. well now the cat is out of the bag!

No, I’m not finding out if it’s going to be a little boy or girl because we didn’t last time and it was so much fun… especially the delivery. When my husband went out to the waiting area to revile the news I could hear cheers all the way in my delivery room. What an amazing experience!

I’m looking forward to taking this journey again, all the while having the support of my family here at Liquis along the way :)

The Family Business – We can say that now!

Untitled-1I am happy to announce that Brad, our design director, and Jackie, our general manager, are getting hitched! I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to write the post, but there you have it! They will tie the knot this July in Newport Beach. Brad proposed last July in Huntington Beach and Jackie said “YES!” just in time for him to get off his knee and out of the way of an approaching wave!
