Pure Creative will begin work with Keystone Substance Abuse Services to design their new web site. The site will incorporate four main areas that focus on Prevention, Services, Community, and Facilities. A interactive sister site complete with video, live chat and a blog, www.allonboard.org, was created by Pure Creative in 2006 that focuses on the community partnering as a whole to help curb underage drinking. "We are looking forward to working with Keystone on another exciting project that makes a positive impact on the community," said Pure Creative CEO Maggie Sargent.

Keystone Development Director Jane Alleva said, "for a medium-size nonprofit like Keystone, we needed an agency that can design everything from a logo to a website and everything in between. Their name says it all: 'Creative.' That is the kind of work we've gotten from them--fresh, professional, and contemporary. The Pure Creative staff are innovative, detailed oriented, responsive, and overall problem solvers."

The site will be complete in the Summer of 2008.

Pure Creative has contracted with Provident Community Bank to design the creative campaign for the launch of their exciting new product, Dream Checking, a high interest rate yielding checking account. The campaign will include a new Dream Checking logo, a series of 'teaser ads', full page 'splash' ads, and ongoing 'image' ads that will run in several papers across the Carolinas, including The Greenville News, Creative Loafing, and The Herald.

Pure also designed custom 'name tags' for the staff to wear that correspond with the campaign, and large 5X4' "dream boards" that were displayed in nine of the bank's lobbies across South Carolina to get people excited about the new product.

"Provident was really fun to work with and one of our absolute favorite clients. They had great ideas and a lot of energy, and the chemistry between us made for some really strong creative work," said CEO Maggie Sargent. "The first day of the campaign - when the full-page ads ran - I asked them 'how's it going?', and they told me 'the phone is ringing off the hook!'. That kind of response made the entire thing worth it! It really is the most fun part of my job, to hear things like that."

Vice President and Marketing Manager Brenda Billardello was equally pleased. She said, "I met Maggie when she first started her business, Pure Creative. Over the years, I have watched her business grow. I have been very impressed with her creativity. So, when the opportunity arose at Provident Community Bank to work with a creative agency, Maggie was the first one I called. Pure Creative listened to our needs for a new product we launched and they produced outstanding results!"
