  5. JW Surety Bonds Website Gets A Facelift

    August 5, 2009 by Michael Weisbrot

    Our marketing people recently suggested we change the look of our site to a more conservative feel. Our clip-art logos were cute, but they didn’t properly portray the level of professionalism our agency holds itself to. The cartoons are gone and pictures are real people are in. The site architecture is the same, but headers and other graphics have been changed.

    So if you are looking for the surety bond agency with the cute cartoons on the website, the same old agency is here…we just have an updated look!
