Background: In 1985, Lucky Clover Shoe Company was started by John Kingsley as a small custom shoe store in Nowhere, SD. Innovation and determination evolved the single employee shoe store into a regional brand. For years, Lucky Clover Shoe Company has thrived without an online presence. Based on a recent market analysis by Marketing Manager Reginald Jones, the company must have a website that promotes their brand as well as, if not better than, their printed marketing materials in order to stay competitive. Their staff tends to have a flair for being humorous in small ways, such as nicknames in e-mail signatures, but they want a professional looking website to promote their brand. Skip Williams, IT Manager, has determined that it is more cost-effective to hire a company than assume the creation and maintenance costs. They want to leverage your expertise and have contracted your company to present a complete web site solution. You must provide a fully documented solution that outlines your proposed services, design process, estimates, and Weebly. For the Final Project, you will write a web site solution document that provides an opinionated approach and incorporates customer branding. You will also create a 5 page prototype web site in Weebly that demonstrates what a hosted site will look like. There are sections of the document where you can reuse previous text, but most sections will require you to write content specific to this customer; sections with reusable text will have a note in Web Site Solution Document Components. This project will leverage skills and knowledge acquired throughout the course and create a comprehensive web site solution document. This is also a good exercise in dealing with customers that outsource to experts and if you ever perform independent contracting.
