SANTEX-NET E-DESIGN FIRM SMASHES STEREOTYPES AT
WWW.SANTEX-NET.COM


SAN DIEGO, CA (March 18, 2003)

santex-net, a San Diego-based international e-marketing design studio, is smashing stereotypes, mixing sophisticated with sassy and creating award-winning web sites for clients who want the world to know "We Have Arrived!" santex's best calling card is its own just-released V.08 web site at www.santex-net.com, a show-and-tell sample of the company's business savvy, creativity and e-market success.

"The new web site is a mirror image of who we are, both as a design firm and as a team," said Juan C. Santiago, president/CEO of santex. "We look at the business world from a different perspective, we know how to locate and showcase our clients' strengths, and we do it with a passion that shows in the finished product." It shows in their client base as well. santex has done work for close to 100 distinct businesses, and every one is still a client.

Santiago is co-founder of the firm that began to weave the Web in 1999. Today, santex has already captured three Golden Web awards for excellence in web design from the International Association of Web Masters and Designers, the industry's highest recognition, plus first place in a high-end German magazine's advertising competition for the Deutsche Oper Berlin ad that appears throughout the Berlin subway system.

The santex web site defines the company's mission: We move ideas from mind to market.' "santex quickly gained recognition and momentum for its business-to-business approach to e-commerce," Santiago said. "Conducting business electronically means companies have to reevaluate the way they work. It also means they need to connect with professionals who can become part of a corporate culture and help define marketing objectives, experts who know how to develop strategic plans to reach highly defined target markets, then translate that to a web site presence. The mission for us is to create for our clients a lasting competitive edge, regardless of the size of the business. And we do that very well."

The site includes a client section that provides tips and advice for clients, and the Our Clients section offers a mini-collection of case studies, the challenges the clients presented to santex, and some of the results.
Musiciansstorehouse.com based in Sugar City, Idaho, offers top quality musical instruments at highly competitive prices. The company delivered a multiple challenge to santex ' create a brand development from the ground up, design a complete business package from logo to letterhead, pull their existing eBay' clients to the new site, reduce overall costs and reinforce the company's credibility.

In less than a year, sales soared to five times over the previous year. "We are currently doing twice as much business on the site as we thought was even possible when we came to santex-net," said Chad Heath, founder and president of Musiciansstorehouse.com. "Every dollar we have spent with them has multiplied itself many times over."
Ellison Meat Company, founded in 1934 in Pipestone, Minnesota, wanted a site that made an image-positioning statement about the company, a quality livestock producer. santex not only met the mission, it exceeded expectations by designing an interactive section with chat rooms, guest books, upcoming events and customized forums to enhance the personal connection with customers.

"The Ellison site was launched in October of 2002," Santiago said. "The company's investment return was 65 days, and the site has established a new way of doing business in its industry."

The highly visible side of this kick-butt business prompts a litany of adjectives ' sharp, street wise and eager to tread the fine line that separates attitude from arrogance. Behind the scenes, however, which clients quickly sense, is an almost playful excitement that thrums with the business drums.

"santex does not create web pages, we create business opportunities," Santiago explained. "We also create relationships with our clients, with their customers and with each other. That personal, human touch is rooted in mutual respect and is part of what distinguishes us from the masses."
