"the idea that the value and performance of two companies combined will be greater than the sum of the separate individual parts"

Synergy is the idea that the value and performance of two companies combined will be greater than the sum of the separate individual parts. At Synergies Design, we value this definition, but simultaneously believe in a more symbiotic  relationship between our client and company. Four years ago, Synergies Design began as a student venture business but has now grown into a full service professional Web design company with both marketing and consulting packages. The client list has also grown exponentially over the last few years and with high profile clients like Dimmi Bar and Caren’s Wine and Cheese in the heart of downtown Toronto, the work and professionalism of the company speaks to that. 

The staff at Synergies Design have backgrounds from some of the top schools in Ontario: programmers from the University of Waterloo, graphic designers from Sheridan College and business and writing backgrounds from York University, the University of Toronto and the University of Western Ontario. Translation - you get technical experience, powerhouse visual solutions, and innovative business and marketing plans. We can help brand or rebrand your corporate identity, redesign your existing website, and help you reach your market.

At Synergies Design, what sets us apart from the competition is our attention to detail and emphasis on unique style. Each client and project is seen as an individual and no webpage is ever duplicated, thereby ensuring that the needs of both the client and desired target audience are met. Additionally, because there are no templates, Synergies Design must use a variety of programs including: PHP, Flash, HTML, mySQL. The capabilities of each webpage are custom made, thus allowing for different options such as daily content management or database management. Photography is also an essential part to each website and Synergies has a very strong in-house team of photographers. Each client receives a two hour photo shoot with approximately 150-200 shots per client.

Our clients thus far have mainly been in the food and entertainment industry because these types of clients are constantly changing their image to keep up with what is “in” with society to survive. The relationship between Synergies Design and the client must then be one of extreme creativity and trust. Both the web designers and client get to stretch their imaginations to the limits and the results have always been spectacular.

The Synergies team is young, professional and creative. Past and current clients are more than satisfied with our approach and the growing client list is a testament to all that can be achieved between you and Synergies Design.

 

History

In May of 2004, Synergies Design was created as a division of Synergies Inc.; an accounting and networking form located in Markham, Ontario.  Synergies Inc. began operations in 1988 under the management of Mr. Tat Szeto who is now the President.  To date, Synergies Design has published over 25 websites, completed over 35 projects and developed a clientele of 30 small businesses in the Greater Toronto Area.  Operating as a non-critical student entity, the division only facilitated new projects between the months of April to September.  This continued until September of 2006 when Synergies Design began planning for year-round operation.  As planning nears completion, a decision has been made for a management buy-out of Synergies Design to be implemented as the new design division for the Synergies Business Group.  Planned for Launch toward the end of April of 2007, the Synergies Business Group (SBG) will be offering integrated design and marketing services strategically packaged for the sale to small businesses.  Additionally, new leadership, business network connections and procedures have been implemented to ensure scalability during growth and through the project development processes.
