Is there a place for humor in commercial Internet projects?I'll start the argument with myself :)
My online business is a small team of web developers. Slowly we are engaged in graphic and web design, we make websites, etc. When choosing a company name - there were many options ... I’m an optimist in life, and I appreciate the sense of humor in people. The type of my sense of humor is well emphasized by the work of Gabriel Lubnin - “
beavers gathered around the peasant and the peasant is not afraid of the beavers are kind ,” “the
peasant in his arms carried a giraffe since there was no wheel giraffe ”. These things are masterpieces in my opinion :))) Recently, a completely new collection of his works,
Lead and Cotton . Who is in the subject - immediately understand what I mean.
')
Therefore, I want to work with humor on life, I want to see among customers of people who are not deprived of this feeling.
When I came up with the idea of ​​a name for our company - “Doing Beautifully” - then this option seemed the most successful. And they did it with permission to say the
site :)
And as if he did not look wretched - but at the given stage of development of the company he is not something that does not interfere with us))) but even contributes to the work and new orders. Even if it seems to you nonsense.
Of course, with the growth of the company, we plan to make a more solid site, to fail to fill a portfolio, to add creativity and all that. But the main question is whether our customers need it? And if we do not lose the mood with which our works are now saturated with time.
Maybe just add a few links to this page and leave it as it is, and bring the gloss inside, leaving the original creative without changes? :)
Do you use humor in your work with clients? and actually where is the edge that you should not move :)
