Putting the Internet to Work for You
Web design and digital marketing services shouldn’t hold your entire business hostage. Too often, small and even medium-sized businesses have multiple decisions to make regarding technology and business systems, including a strong Internet presence through a website, email marketing, customer management, and business process improvement.
Today, there are dozens of tactics and strategies you can take to address these requirements. Without sufficient IT resources, how does a company do it? Since 2002, we’ve been helping clients take charge of their Internet presence, and we’d love to talk to you about your needs.
Our Services…

As a partner in your success, we are always looking out for you!

Our Approach to Pricing.
We’ve compared our prices with others. There are independent freelancers who charge less than we do. Some are talented. Yet there will always be a limitation of a “one-man band.” On the other side, large agencies have large teams, offices, and overhead, and prices to match. We’re a “small agency” that gets big results, and we can add resources as projects dictate. We go the extra mile to delight customers, and we believe this offers exceptional value for small businesses.
What’s with the name, ”OpenVine?”
If you’ve read this far, you’ve probably noticed that we could fill a barrel with the wine metaphors and images on this site. Why the “wine” angle you might ask? Simple. Over the years, many people who only heard our name would inevitably ask, “Are you in the wine business?” Uh, no. But it got us thinking. Could we leverage that concept? So we brainstormed, talked, researched, analyzed, and processed. Yep. We ran with it. Was it a pour decision or a grape one (see, now we can’t help ourselves)? Time will tell.
So where did the name “OpenVine” come from? Our founder, Bill Germino, put it this way: “In the Scripture verse John 15:5, Christ says ‘I am the Vine, you are the branches…he abides in Me, and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.’ I knew that Jesus is always open to receiving anyone who desires to know Him. Those two words fit well together and the domain was available. Boom. I dedicated the business to Him. Plus, the vine metaphor fit really well with the initial services we offered, which was collaboration software. So that was our name.”
