The challenge

What the Organization Needed to Change

The partnership's seven-year-old site contained useful information, but its structure and positioning no longer reflected how companies compare regions or which industries were the strongest fit.

The solution

A Strategy Built Around Real User Needs

Whittington Consulting used AI to analyze 18 months of anonymized RFI material—more than 200 pages—to identify recurring prospect questions. Those findings shaped target-industry focus, regional messaging and the new information architecture.

  • RFI-informed content strategy
  • Sharper target-industry positioning
  • Stronger business and lifestyle connection
  • Responsive WordPress development
  • Accessibility, performance and search planning

The result

A Stronger Digital Platform

  • Faster access to the workforce, infrastructure, sites and business-climate information prospects request
  • A more cohesive story across business and quality-of-life content
  • Recognition as a 2026 Web Excellence Award winner
