Carolina Federation Triple-Site Evolution
Carolina Federation
Three independent entities needed distinct websites that still felt connected. WordPress performance, maintenance, and publishing friction slowed timely advocacy updates and supporter engagement.
Migrate three WordPress sites to Webflow for speed, security, and easier updates. Refresh brand and copy, differentiate each entity, and integrate advocacy communications tools.
Three Webflow sites launched: faster, secure, and easy to manage. Clearer messaging and cohesive branding supported stronger engagement, with overwhelmingly positive feedback.
AWARD RECOGNITIONS
Brand system formalization + mission-aligned copy refresh
We collaborated with the Carolina Federation team to formalize brand logo materials into a practical, usable set of assets that could be applied consistently across digital touchpoints. From there, we deployed the refined brand elements across all three Webflow builds to create a cohesive, recognizable experience. In parallel, we delivered completely revised website copy—tightening clarity, elevating inspiration, and aligning language to the Federation’s mission and organizing values. The result is a more confident voice across pages, clearer pathways for advocates, and messaging that better reflects the organization’s leadership in statewide civic engagement.
Independent site identities built on a shared brand foundation
Because the 501(c)(3), 501(c)(4), and PAC operate independently, each site needed to stand on its own—without confusing visitors or diluting purpose. We designed each experience to feel distinct through tailored page structures, content emphasis, and navigation patterns, while still honoring the Federation’s core brand base. This approach supports compliance-friendly separation and makes it easier for visitors to understand where they are, what the entity does, and how to take action. The system also ensures that the three sites feel like part of one ecosystem, not three disconnected projects.
Seamless integration of advocacy tools, signups, and communications
To support organizing at scale, we incorporated third-party communications tools, signups, and advocacy materials directly into the site experiences. These integrations were implemented to feel native—reducing friction and keeping supporters focused on action rather than troubleshooting. Just as importantly, we ensured these tools connected cleanly with the organization’s primary advocate management platform, enabling better list growth, smoother campaign workflows, and more reliable engagement tracking. The result is a web ecosystem that not only looks modern, but actively supports day-to-day organizing operations.
Can you print materials?
While we don’t do in-house printing, we can help you get your materials printed! This includes having final printed materials sent to you or printed near you for pickup. In the design process, we ensure your files are prepared to be sent to printers by ensuring correct sizing, bleeds, and file packaging.
Will I be able to maintain the site after launch?
Yes, we will make sure you can! We build sites that are easy to manage with navigable content management systems (CMS) like WebFlow. We provide documentation and training so that you and your team feel comfortable updating content, adding pages, or running blogs. And if you ever need support, we’re here to help!
Can you build websites that let people donate or sign petitions?
Absolutely! Your website should be able to centralize sign-ups and donations. Most of the websites we build require compatibility with CRMs like Salesforce or Hubspot, donation platforms like GiveLively, and email marketing or newsletter platforms. No matter your needs, our team will make sure everything works seamlessly and is easy to manage.
What website platforms do you use?
We regularly work with content management systems (CMS) like WordPress, Webflow, and Squarespace, though we’re flexible. We evaluate each project and choose a CMS depending on your needs and technical goals!
Do you offer ongoing support or maintenance?
Absolutely. We have ongoing retainers with many of our clients to perform regular maintenance and security patching. At the end of each project, though, we ensure our clients’ in-house web management teams have the tools and information they need to manage the website going forward.
