Consumer:

Must feature our logo, we want both a home page and sub page.
We would like to portray our company image as an education and consultation company in the online marketing niche.
Although I’m looking for a very professional site I’m not looking for the typical Man or Woman in a suit and tie in the hero shot. Take a look at the swipe files for inspiration.

Really like these designs overall:

Home Page

I really like the box concept on 99 Designs for our home page (above the fold):

http://99designs.com/
Possibly adding the following boxes (3x3):

Search Engine Marketing
E-mail Marketing
Social Media
Mobile Marketing
Public Relations
Affiliate Marketing
Online Video
Online Copywriting
E-commerce

I like what Orange Soda has done below the fold. I've attached a screenshot of their home page.

We could have two sections, a right sidebar, and a left content area. The content area would feature special content. The sidebar would have two boxes - 1. Video tour, 2. Lead gen form (free whitepaper and/or consultation).

Sub pages

The sub pages should feature a left side content area and a right sidebar.

I really like this page (with the sidebar on the other side of course)

Our sidebar will feature contextual navigation elements for each section, customer testimonials, and special offers. I've attached a sample sidebar, but I don't necessarily like how it's styled.
