Courtney Rose Creative Services Brings Design, Marketing, and More to the Bay Area

Online, June 23, 2011 (Newswire.com) - All-in-one firm Courtney Rose Creative Services, best known for local graphic and web work in Southern California, has recently relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area with hopes of further pursuing business opportunities and maintaining the goals of the team. With this change of scenery comes many other exciting changes for the better within the firm that specializes in graphic design, web design, marketing, photography, and video services.

In 2008, freelancer Courtney Rose Galschiodt decided to start an independent firm so she could unite freelancers with a common goal to supply clients with inexpensive creative services. The team started under the ambiguous name EveryRose, but eventually underwent a re-branding and emerged as Courtney Rose Creative Services.

Born and raised in Orange County, CA, Courtney Rose Galschiodt got her start in graphic design at a young age when she won a county-wide bookmark design contest at the age of ten. She bring years of video production, graphic design, web design, writing, social networking, and marketing experience to the table.

Courtney worked for several years for an international corporate video production and advertising company, alongside an Emmy award winning team, before setting off on her own to freelance.

Between freelancing, Courtney worked as a graphic designer in the marketing department at the corporate headquarters for a chain of national jewelry stores. While there, she gained more experience in print design, digital design, user interface design, web programming, Flash animation, product photography, model photography, photo editing, lighting, videography, storyboarding, and marketing.

Mike Chatham, partner at Courtney Rose Creative Services, is experienced with a wide array of programs including Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Dreamweaver, and Flash. He is certified in graphic design, web design, and 3D animation. As a computer expert, he attended the University of the Pacific for a while as a computer science major. After working as an independent contractor for years for a major video production company as an SEO expert, graphic designer, and web designer, Mike began working with Courtney.

Courtney Rose Creative Services was based out of Anaheim, CA, but served clients worldwide. The team did a lot of work within the local community, trying to give back to neighboring businesses and citizens. It was extremely bittersweet they decided it was time to pursue opportunities elsewhere. While they say goodbye to Southern California, they intend to build strong relationships with their new neighbors in the North. In June 2011, Courtney Rose Creative Services moved to the San Francisco Bay Area.

Now located in the East Bay city of Antioch, CA, Courtney Rose Creative Services is looking to gain new local clients, reach out to neighboring businesses and groups, and build a strong presence in this new environment. "We pride ourselves in our local involvement. We do our best to support fellow artists and small businesses that make our community special. While our address may have changed, our appreciation is constant," says founder Courtney Rose Galschiodt. "While our prices are already competitive, we plan on offering discounts to residents in the area to build up a stronger presence, referrals, and reviews within our new location."

"I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. It's great to be home and it's going to be even better to be able to work with neighboring companies and individuals," says long-time Antioch citizen and Courtney Rose Creative Services partner Mike Chatham.

With the relocation, Courtney Rose Creative Services is carrying out other changes. It began with a site redesign and the addition of photography to the list of services. Now the firm has plans to expand the team, services, and site. Most notably, standard web development and marketing services will advance and grow.

The first of these changes happened right after the move when Courtney Rose Creative Services announced plans to offer clients assistance with building up their social networking presence and following. Courtney Rose Creative Services is also looking to welcome independent contractors to the team as well as knowledgeable guest writers for the blog. Other upcoming changes that the firm has yet to announce include advances in eCommerce and WordPress development, expanding photo and video services, and even offering some brand new services.

While the team behind Courtney Rose Creative Services is adapting to a new environment, they want to make sure local residents adapt to them as well. They're looking to connect with new clients as well as freelancers while maintaining their standards and goal to offer a wide array of professional creative services at great prices.
