Yorba Linda, California (PRWEB) October 04, 2011

OCDesignerSource.com, an innovative online resource center offering unique interior design products and services in the field of interior and exterior design, is pleased to announce the launch of their new art library for licensing for hospitality and publishing with their team of talented art providers. Headquartered in Yorba Linda, California, OCDesignerSource.com is the culmination of its two founders' 25 years of industry expertise and is a highly respected resource for interior design, serving consumers with the best, most reliable talents in the art and interior design industries.

At the forefront are owners Michele Preston and Michele Wiemann with a practical, pragmatic approach and just the right mix of creativity. They have recently teamed up with their new Art Director, Wendy Froshay, a multitalented artist and design manager with over 30 years experience in art, graphic design, and licensing. OCDesignerSource.com has also forged several strategic alliances which have helped them to create very complex commercial presentations when needed.

Their art division has a fresh strategy that has proven to be highly effective and is revolutionizing the way artists sell art and professionals find art. OCDesignerSource.com has put together its own team of established professional artists and photographers from all over the globe. These artists are mentored on the newest trends, technical aspects and business practices to be effective in the market of interior and architectural design industries. Froshay works with each of these artists to ensure that all work is presented and reprinted with consistency of high quality and meets industry standards. They also keep the artists up to date on what is successfully selling, giving them an opportunity to expand their body of work and make more sales.

Michele Preston, founder of OCDesignersource.com noted, "Our goal is to help talented artists succeed and make finding the perfect artwork simple, easy and reliable. We feel that as interior designers we can better communicate what the industry looks for in color, style, and size. We also have the ability to create new or modify current pieces for that perfect unique piece upon request." They have original fine art pieces, but also have printing abilities which can be applied to unique surfaces and sized perfectly for any project.

OCDesignerSource.com works with interior designers, architects, private collectors, alliances, and has been recently approached by publishers and other companies who are searching for high quality work to license on their products. They streamline the whole process for them, reducing the need to spend time searching and sifting through anonymous art submissions that typically don't meet quality standards. Interested companies are given a password to access the art library online to find what they are looking for, and set up a contract to license the artwork that meets their criteria.

Michele Wiemann, cofounder of OCDesignerSource.com, explained the value of their online library to clients, stating," We market many talented artists. Not all talents are seen in gallery settings and many consumers are looking for new, fresh work." They aim to share these unique pieces with a larger audience by marketing them online.

OCDesignerSource.com launched its new art library in September 2011. The company continues to focus on providing art for both commercial and residential interior design projects, as well as working with publishers to license art.

OCDesignerSource Launches Online Community for Artists, Interior Designers and Craftsmen

Company Leverages Social Media to Create Innovative Online and Offline Networks

Yorba Linda, CA - September 3rd, 2009 -- OCDesignerSource.com, an innovative online resource center offering world class artist creations and interior design industry marketing solutions for residential and commercial building and design professionals, today announced the launch of their new online network, the Community of Art and Design. This highly relevant and value-added forum is an Internet-based social network for the company's clients and partners, consumers, artists, craftsmen and other building and design industry professionals. This latest effort by OCDesignerSource.com founders and design experts, Michele Preston and Michele Weimann, is a strategic foray into social marketing that leverages the power of various social media tools like Twitter, Facebook and You Tube. The firm's new online Community of Art and Design allows both consumers and industry vendors to become a member by visiting www.designartnetwork.ning.com.

OCDesignerSource.com has experienced impressive growth in its first full year in operation and has attracted a growing number of world-class, award winning artists whose works are represented in their online Design Studio Center. The firm has also built a growing client portfolio of highly qualified design industry professionals, contractors, suppliers and craftsmen that are displayed in the Design Resource Center. The new online community offers these members a venue to build a professional profile, upload photos and videos of their work, post events, participate and contribute to forums and blogs and to engage in business networking. Members also share best practices and can find up-to-date marketing tools and information.

Michele Preston, cofounder of OCDesignerSource.com, expressed her excitement about the new network, stating, "Our online community has been very well received by our partners and guests. It was designed as a collaborative forum offering enhanced online presence for our members, in addition to marketing tools and advice. Our members can learn about innovative companies and new products, post completed design projects and artwork, discover new artists and collaborate on how to succeed in the art world, read articles on sustainability and more." Preston went on to say, "We have seen many of our members engaging each other, making new friends and networking with others who have common ideas, concerns and issues. We expect our online community to grow and grow; it was a fantastic next step for our company."

OCDesignerSource.com's founders have not stopped there. In addition to the new online forum, the firm produces a series of quarterly network events for face-to-face mingling. The events offer an opportunity to build new business contacts, linking world-class artists with area designers; and hear industry presenters focus on applying new ideas for more successful results. The premier event, hosted at The Kitchen Design Center showroom on August 15, 2009 in La Habra, California, treated guests to a well known building industry speaker discussing innovations in increasing sales and making a customer for life. Also presenting were Jeff and Amanda Zettel of Homemade Design on how to think out of the box on what designers look for in a tradesman and on sourcing artwork for their client projects.

Michele Wiemann, cofounder of OCDesignerSource.com, stated, "Being self employed, primarily in small business settings, many of our partners can sometimes feel like they are 'going it alone.' We created our quarterly network party concept in the interest of bringing people together and to provide opportunities to meet other business owners with a lot of the same objectives and concerns. These events also offer a lifeline of new, innovative people to work with. We are seeing a genuine sense of teamwork and idea creation among our members who are conversing on their current projects and finding unique ways of working with each other."

OCDesignerSource.com Announces Launch of
Online Specialty Interior Design Resource Center

Innovative Online Community Connects Consumers to Local High Quality
Design Trades and Promotes Industry Confidence and Development

Yorba Linda, CA - December 9th, 2008 – OCDesignerSource.com, an innovative, classy online resource center offering unique designer products and services for both residential and commercial applications, as well as cost-effective marketing support for quality tradesmen and designers in the field of interior and exterior design is pleased to announce the launch of their new online community. Headquartered in Yorba Linda, California, OCDesignerSource.com is the culmination of its founder’s two decades of industry expertise and was established to serve as a highly respected resource that connects consumers to the best, most reliable local talents in the design industry.

As veteran industry consultants and designers for over twenty years which include diverse backgrounds encompassing commercial, residential and builder markets, owners Michele Preston and Michele Wiemann have a keen sense of the challenges faced by both private and public clients in finding high quality, reliable design product and service providers; as well as the challenges encountered by designers and trades people in cost-effectively marketing their services. OCDesignerSource.com was created to bridge these gaps in consumer confidence by connecting well qualified, trusted and talented design professionals to customers and clients that demand only the highest levels of service and quality from their providers.

According to Michele Preston, cofounder of OCDesignerSource.com, “These markets have always had a subtle hesitation in moving through design projects due to client uncertainty over the ability of providers to deliver successful results, manage projects within budget and meet\ customer expectations. We aim to connect businesses and consumers with a provider that give them the confidence to move forward with their design projects.” Preston continued, “Our easy to research website will profile only the most highly recommended, licensed industry professionals in given service areas and include a biography for each tradesman, their specialty, and visual examples of their work.”

OCDesignerSource.com offers local trades and design service providers a unique way to expand their local marketing presence, enhance visibility of their offerings using both traditional and web-based marketing techniques and respond to consumer project requests all at a significantly lower cost than traditional ‘yellow page’ or other print ad mediums. Featured providers will benefit from enhanced marketing techniques such as better search engine optimization for their own websites and a broad array of public relations and direct marketing initiatives. Visitors to the site may also submit questions about their projects and interact with providers prior to selection.

Michele Wiemann, cofounder of OCDesignerSource.com, explained the value of their online community to local providers, stating, “Our Company’s goal is to support the ‘professional’ tradesmen, accredited interior designers, vendors and artists that make our field what it is today.” Wiemann went on to note, “An additional benefit to consumers and producers alike are that we will also market many talented artists and vendors that are so often overlooked. Not all talents are seen in gallery settings and many consumers shop high and low looking for designer items that only the design industry seems to provide. There are so many amazing products that are available to purchase if only the public can access them. We will expose these masterpieces and their creators on our site’s Design Studio Center so that these unique items may reach a larger audience and be purchased on line.”

OCDesignerSource.com launched its innovative web community in October 2008 and currently serves one of the most affluent counties in southern California. The company continues its focus on attracting even more design industry trades and artists in Orange County, California. They expect to build upon its success by providing consumer access to resources and providers in expanded market areas including the Los Angeles County, Riverside County, and San Diego throughout 2009. OCDesignerSource.com’s specialty products are available for purchase and can be delivered nationally.
