Sonoma Market launches new Website Donates $12,500 to women's center

Dale Downing and Don Shone have launched their new Sonoma-Glen Ellen Market Website (http://www.sonomamarket.com) highlighting many of their stores' departments, staff and products. The recipe section has been expanded; there is a link to a dynamic "Wine Dude" feature by Mike Short, wine buyer, and a "butchers blog" by meat department manager Scott Meroney. Shoppers can access the complete deli and prepared foods menu and place orders via telephone from the list.

Another part of the store's new site highlights the many local community organizations that the market supports. Most recently, the market's Pink Ribbon day raised more than $12,500 for the Carolyn J. Stone Women's Health and Wellness Center in Sonoma. Sonoma-Glen Ellen Market revised the look of their add to capture some of the highlights of their new Website and is also adding a new advertising feature in the Index-Tribune next to Kathleen Hill's Friday column.

The site redesign was produced and directed by Sonoma Creative Services in partnership with WildFireWeb Inc.. Scott Miller of Sonoma Creative Services credited the SCS team, including Ryan Lynch, Gerri Back, and Kathleen McIntyre and Blaine and Lia Transue, of WildFireWeb Inc. for their work on the site.  He also thanked Kathleen Hill, the Index-Tribune's food and wine editor, for her help and counsel on the site layout and content.

Sonoma Creative Services is a new division of The Sonoma Index-Tribune established earlier this year for the purpose of serving the creative marketing and advertising needs of local businesses. The Shop Sonoma Mall (shopsonoma.net), another SCS and WildFireWeb team project is launching this week.
