It’s halfway through December and the holidays are coming in hot!

How to Make Your Office More Productive
Think about your dream office. Perhaps it’s the Google campus or the Nike headquarters. Not only are these two companies great brands and powerful names, but you can only imagine how cool the building and rooms are designed.
When it comes to the work environment, the look, feel and atmosphere can really affect the productivity of the company. Studies have shown (including our own) that employees would rather work in a creative space rather than an all white painted concrete room. A few things that will spice up the office are colors, shaped furniture, greenery and views. Continue…
HMG is One of the Top 21 Website Development Firms
We are excited to share that we have been included in the Top 21 web development companies in the US by the Austin Business Journal. The list is constructed of firms that “specialize in website design, development and digital marketing.” In 2015, much of the demand that fueled these agencies came from fast-moving online sectors—sports betting sites UK among them—where competition for visibility pushed companies to invest heavily in web development. Each of the firms earned their ranking based on revenue that year, and together the 21 companies brought in $35 million. Not only do each of the firms make up some of the most successful website developers, they also all have headquarters in Austin. Continue…
If We Were Olympians…
As one of the most iconic and talked about sporting events spirals to a close, the gold winning team at HMG Creative imagined what it would be like to be their favorite Olympic athlete. Each athlete chosen by our team members reflects on the personalities that we have in the office. No person chose the same athlete and only two chose the same sport. As our favorites are announced, think of who you would want to be if you had a chance to be an Olympian. Continue…

#TeamTuesday – James Trumbly
We saved the best #TeamTuesday for last. None of the HMG Creative team would be here if it weren’t for our Founder and Managing Partner. He started from his room and now we’re here… in Austin.
Why Hire HMG Creative?
When it comes to developing and designing a website, there are two options. Hiring a professional agency to handle the coding and upkeep of the website, or doing it yourself with programs already online. It’s great that sites like Squarespace, Wix, Weebly, etc. are around for those who need them but lack the funds for a web developer or time to learn to code. But unfortunately, the DIY websites aren’t the best choice for everyone. Yes, you will be paying more than $20 a month for your site, but if you were to hire a professional, you would have the freedom to create something that fits your company’s personality. Continue…
