Looking back at our task lists from the past 12 months was a great reminder of everything that we have helped our clients accomplish.

 

SNAP Financial

SNAP Central Screenshot2018 was another banner year at SNAP Financial. For a long time, Flywheel has been hard at work building Apps, implementing Salesforce enhancements and providing sound strategic guidance to SNAP. With such a broad and deep understanding of what SNAP needs to do, Flywheel is able to use our digital skills to help them grow.

Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada

PDAC Website ScreenshotFor a week every year in March, over 30,000 attendees descend on the Metro Toronto Convention center and take over every hotel room in the area. These visitors are guided by the information on the PDAC Convention website, which last year got a new, fresh design. The thousands of members of the Association also have a user friendly website bringing them the most relevant policy and advocacy information.

WRKSHOP
