The National Dropout Prevention Center engaged Carolina Creative to develop a new Web site to replace our 16+ year old site. We initially selected Carolina Creative because they seemed to immediately understand our clients, our goals, and the foundational concepts for attracting a diverse national audience to a variety of events, resource, products, and information. Our previous Website was already the nation’s most utilized dropout prevention resource, but it was complex, had evolved through many languages, and was internally cumbersome. Carolina Creative successfully worked through our existing content, captured our organization’s 29-year history, and made literally thousands of documents, video clips, publications, and resource links more readily available in a contemporary format. Carolina Creative always responded to our requests, included our staff in important decisions, and met delivery targets When the Carolina Creative product was presented to the National Dropout Prevention Center’s Board of Directors, they literally applauded. In the first ten days of our new Web site’s life, the daily use rate increased by 195% and on-line orders for our publications increased by 71%. Both the product and the process exceeded our expectations. Fast forward to 2020, we could not be more pleased. Carolina Creative is exemplary in support and service. – Dr. Sandy Addis, National Dropout Prevention Center
