Interact is currently the agency of record for the Wisconsin Technical College System and has worked with clients throughout the country. When you want an agency that understands the unique needs and pressures of marketing and public relations at a two-year college... it's time to contact our team.

WebsiteASP — In 2004 we were named a technology and business partner with WebsiteASP for their OmniUpdate content management system (CMS). At that time, we had been working closely with their development team for more than a year, assisting them in understanding "real world" features our clients were specifically looking for in a CMS and in testing those features as they were integrated into the product.

For sites that are integrating OmniUpdate as a part of their development process, Merlin Media provides services for the design and creation of template pages that make up your new website and then works with the OmniUpdate team as they integrate the appropriate CMS tags into each template allowing you and your authorized team members, coworkers and associates to make changes only to those areas that each user is entitled to make.

With a properly configured CMS, your websit benefits by allowing multiple people to provide updates and new materials postings directly into a "safe" area on your web sever, lets you review and give it the OK before it gets posted to the world, and keeps any do-not-touch areas safe. That isn't the whole story about a CMS and what it can do for you. If you have questions, please contact us or go to the OmniUpdate website to read more about their CMS.
