East Lansing-based GreenLite Web Solutions is one-year-old, having grown from a two-intern project to a six-employee business. To celebrate its birthday, the company is offering free website design for one company, a service the company values at about $2,500.
“We’ve been noticing the impact of the recession on our customers and want to offer our own stimulus package,” Brian Azar, of Artemis Solutions Group, says. GreenLite is a spin off of Artemis.
For profit or non profit companies may apply here by 9 a.m., July 29. Entries will include a brief video or a short written essay focusing on small business in Michigan. Winners will be selected by votes on the GreenLite website.
GreenLite started as a “whacky” project, Azar says. Artemis hired two Michigan State University (MSU) interns, challenging them to create a new business. If they were successful, Artemis would back them. Steve Jencks, the award-winning designer, was one of those interns and is still on staff.
“We’re a great Lansing success story,” says Azar. “Now we’re looking forward to building a beautiful website for someone.”
