720media Review: A Web Design Team That Actually Cares

Picture this: You're a small business owner or nonprofit director who knows your organization needs a sleek, functional website—but the thought of navigating the wild west of web design agencies makes you want to crawl under your desk. Enter 720media, a Colorado Springs-based team that doesn’t just build websites—they geek out over them. After working with them (and witnessing their infectious enthusiasm firsthand), here’s why they might be the antidote to your digital headaches.

Design That Doesn’t Look Like a Template

Let’s be real—nothing screams "amateur" like a website that looks like it was cobbled together from a $5 WordPress theme. 720media’s designs are crisp, modern, and (most importantly) tailored. Whether you’re a boutique bakery or a veteran-focused nonprofit, their team digs into your brand’s personality. Their 2016 "Best Website Developers" award from the Colorado Springs Business Journal wasn’t just a fluke; their portfolio shows range, from minimalist layouts to bold, interactive elements.

Small critique? If you’re on a super-tight deadline, their custom approach might take a tad longer than slapping together a Squarespace site—but the trade-off is worth it.

Email Marketing That Doesn’t Land in Spam

Their email newsletter game is strong. Instead of blasting generic templates, they craft campaigns that align with your website’s vibe and—crucially—actually get opened. Think strategic subject lines, clean mobile-friendly layouts, and analytics that don’t require a PhD to interpret. For nonprofits and small businesses, this is gold.

Military & Nonprofit Savvy

Few agencies understand the unique needs of military organizations and nonprofits like 720media. They’re adept at balancing tight budgets with high-impact results, whether it’s streamlining donation flows or ensuring ADA compliance. Their team speaks "mission-driven" fluently, which is refreshing in an industry that often prioritizes flash over function.

The Maintenance Safety Net

Ever had a website update break your entire layout at 2 AM? 720media’s maintenance plans are like having a IT lifeguard on duty. They handle security patches, plugin updates, and even content tweaks so you can focus on your actual job. For technophobes, this alone justifies the investment.

Pros:

• Custom designs that don’t feel cookie-cutter
• Email marketing with strategy (not just pretty colors)
• Niche expertise in military and nonprofit sectors
• Ongoing support that prevents midnight panic attacks

Cons:

• Not the fastest option if you need a site yesterday
• Pricing may stretch lean budgets (but you get what you pay for)

Final Verdict

720media is the rare web design team that combines passion with practicality. They’re not just coding robots—they’re partners who care about your goals. If you want a website that works as hard as you do (and a team that answers your emails without eye-rolling), they’re a solid bet. Just don’t wait until the week before your big launch to call them.
