Huh? What kind of marketing/branding company outsources their web  
site? You'd think that would be a core competence.

Uh, doesn't any serious operation do their own tracking?! Google  
Analytics is nice and all for a blog or something, especially if  
you're chained to Adwords, but I would expect actual companies to do  
their own usage tracking. At least use Mint or something, a single  
site license is $30!

For a marketing company I would look upon use of Google Analytics as a  
sign of a mom and pop operation doing things on the cheap and I think  
it's weird that someone would suggest otherwise... again, you'd expect  
usage analysis to be a core competence.

Site looks good though, although the favicon isn't loading for me and  
I would prefer the charset to be utf8 pretty much everywhere these  
days. The portfolio section is particularly well-designed. And I'm  
always happy to see the use of PNG : )
