Larry Swann: Government Relations - Consulting & Lobbying

Providing consulting and lobbying services in West Virginia for over 20 years, Larry Swann is a familiar name to many West Virginians. His clients include Fortune Top-25 companies, health care organizations, technology groups, and a host of others throughout the state. Prior to consulting, Swann was a high-profile member of the West Virginia House of Delegates, serving on nearly every major committee in his 16-year tenure, including three consecutive terms as Republican leader.

Organization Bio:

Like many business people, Swann needed to update what he called his “antiquated” website. “It had been done in the early years of websites, and was good for the time that it was done. But it clearly needed to be modernized.”

Creating a Resource

Swann had heard of Jamie’s good work from another of Jamie’s clients, the West Virginia Coal Association. With basic requirements for his site (a list of services, a brief biography, the right marketing message), Swann turned the project over to Jamie and his staff.

Bricks Without Straw promptly produced a thorough and straightforward website that serves as a resource for Swann. “Jamie’s site is a much more professional site (than the former site); it has more information on it, more clarity. It’s just a better site. I make reference to it a lot in my discussions with potential clients and others who want to know about me. It’s very helpful, and I have had very positive feedback.”

The consultant also appreciated the price tag that came with his top quality new site. “I found Jamie to be very reasonable. I’ve seen other websites (in my area of business) that are not as good as mine that cost more.”

Personal, Prompt and Professional

Speaking with Swann, it’s obvious that he enjoyed his experience working with Bricks Without Straw. When asked what sets Jamie apart in the web design business, Swann was quick with answers. “Personalized service. It’s something that a lot of times you don’t get. Promptness. That’s important in today’s business world. He gave me a target date, and it was there when he told me it was going to be there. And product. He was very professional about everything. He’s a great guy; I wish him the best of luck!”
