Lazerpro Digital Media Group

Lazerpro was initially started as a video production company in 1992. It was launched as one of the first all digital non-linear production companies in the United States. We leveraged the advances in computer technology to provide video production and editing services that were 100% digital. Lazerpro was able to provide hollywood quality at a fraction of the price. Our initial business verticals were both event and wedding video as well as corporate training videos and local television commercials. The business grew quickly from Dan as a single employee to a staff of 2 production people in addition to Dan. Lazerpro moved into CD-ROM production and then into Web development in 1994 as it was a natural fit to the businesses already being served by the company. At this point the company grew rapidly to a staff of 15. Web development quickly became the top business unit for the company. Dan oversaw this growth and the company added project managers, web developers, graphics artists and programmers as well as salespeople to the staff. In 1997 Lazerpro began offering Search Engine Optimization (SEO) services to its clients, years before this type of service even became an industry. Many of Lazerpro's early customers are still clients today. Lazerpro has built over 1,000 corporate websites for businesses of all different shapes and sizes. As a place to showcase its capabilities to potential customers, Lazerpro launched http://www.statecollege.com in 1996 and the site has continually undergone improvement and enhancement. The concept was that StateCollege.com would link to local businesses as well as to local information in the community. This site has grown to be the top traffic destination for the marketplace with over 250,000 unique visitors per month and is the leading advertising platform in its market. In 2012, Lazerpro migrated the software behind StateCollege.com to the cloud as a SaaS platform and spun off CityPortals to take this product to market.
