Cyberwoven Wins an Association of Marketing and Communications Professionals (AMCP) Award

Columbia, SC (Oct. 23, 2023) - Cyberwoven, a full-service brand, marketing, and web agency, recently won an Association of Marketing and Communication Professionals (AMCP) award. The firm took home a Gold dotCOMM award in the Website and Finance category for their work on AgFirst Farm Credit Bank’s new website.  

“AgFirst’s new website reflects the company’s refreshed visual identity and its recent, comprehensive, technical transformation,” states David May, president of Cyberwoven. “We are honored to receive an award for our work with AgFirst Farm Credit Bank. As 'Weavers, we take great pride in the work we produce for our clients. It’s exciting when our hard work and talent are recognized on this large of a scale.” 

While AgFirst’s mission has remained the same, supporting American farmers, growers, ranchers, and rural communities across the United States, the new site makes it easier for Associations to do business with AgFirst and each other. Using best-in-class technology and innovation, the new site showcases two important dimensions: the beauty of rural America and its people, and the power of technology.  

“As we undergo a once-in-a-generation technology and services transformation, our company needed a website that reflects the strategic direction AgFirst is taking while also retaining our historical mission of supporting agriculture and rural America," states Juan Silvera, chief marketing officer for AgFirst.  

In addition to providing better support for the organization’s key end-users, the website’s new features and functionality relay important information to visitors in an easy-to-navigate and searchable format that is also optimized for mobile access. Highlights of the new site now include:     

  • A timeline marking important milestones in the Bank’s history using original photographs from the Bank’s archives.  
  • Several new sections, including one that shows AgFirst’s community contributions and another outlining our support for young, beginning, and small (YBS) farmers.  
  • An interactive map of the AgFirst District that spotlights the Bank’s affiliated Associations.  
  • A variety of video content that explains AgFirst’s business model in a relatable way and highlights the organization’s Farm Credit University, citing successful intern experiences, among others. 

Cyberwoven is honored to be recognized by leading industry partners like AMCP for the work produced for our clients who care about telling their story; clients like AgFirst who are deeply committed to meeting the evolving needs of their community. 

“Cyberwoven is committed to helping businesses reach their goals and objectives. We love working with clients, like AgFirst, who value their customers and strive to fulfill their mission of supporting rural communities and agriculture with reliable, consistent credit and financial services, every day,” continues May.
