I don’t have enough good things to say about my experience with Bearded Studio. They were fun and easy to work with, creative, responsive, timely, and most importantly built us exactly the website we were hoping for. I look forward to working with them on an ongoing basis and could not recommend them more highly for your web and branding needs.

Patrick Dowd for Mayor
The Dowd for Mayor campaign is running an underdog race against the incumbent mayor of Pittsburgh. For what they are trying to accomplish, speed and flexibility are paramount. Bearded Studio was approached to create a campaign web site, and to use that as an opportunity to establish the look and feel for Patrick Dowd's participation in the Pittsburgh 2009 mayoral race.
What the campaign needed immediately was a way to collect volunteers, donations, and add to its mailing list. Bearded Studio provided that functionality immediately, and followed that up shortly thereafter with Mr. Dowd's full web site.
Unfortunately, you can't take your web site with you when you're knocking on doors. So Bearded Studio also produced a series of printed promotional items: handbills summarizing Patrick's history and stance on the issues, campaign buttons, and St. Patrick's Day-themed stickers.
The front page of the Patrick Dowd for Mayor web site focused on its primary function of collecting donations and building email and volunteer lists.
Print materials for the Dowd campaign included buttons, St. Patrick's Day stickers, and a brochure.
The Dowd site's internal pages focused on community outreach and citizen testimonials, which could be posted on the site by users.
