Testimonials

In large part due to the quality and creativity of Mike James' designs we were able to capture the attention of investors, customers, and strategic partners and grow our business. Our investment in Mike's high level of design has paid off over and over. Not only has his work been consistently excellent, it has always been done in a timely manner.

The question we ask ourselves whenever we have an immediate or long range project is one thing: "Why would we go anywhere else."

I never realized the importance of a logo until I saw the finished product The DesignPond created for my company. The logo adds that special flair by not just catching a glance by a potential customer but an interest in pursuing my products in a very competitive market.

Personable service and the ability to create an identity that reflects your business. I never thought that a logo could so clearly convey the professionalism and creativity that I was putting into my company and where I dreamed it could go.

I now have a professional identity and am confident with what my company has to offer and know it can reach its maximum potential. I strongly recommend his talent and ability to help any company achieve the professionalism and identity to put them out in the forefront of their competitors.

Yesterday was a big success, thanks in large part to the presentation and booklet The DesignPond designed. It impressed the group of participants and given the level of those in the room, that is high praise.

The long hours and hard work really showed in the product. That it came together in the timeframe we had to work in is still hard to believe, but reflective of your dedication to getting the job done and done well.

Thank you.

Michael James and The DesignPond has been doing Glen Research's graphic design for more than 10 years. They have generated elegant designs which have beautifully fitted and enhanced our company's image. They have put together elegant templates which have allowed us to slot in our heavy, scientific text, making the final product look totally professional—but without the associated cost.

The DesignPond’s work has attracted many admirers and we have been delighted to send more clients their way. We're happy enough to share!

I have used The DesignPond for publication design and production for the past five years. They have designed annual reports, brochures, and Web page components for my organization. We love the fresh, original designs, the rich use of color, and the consistent overall quality of the publications. The work is fairly priced, delivered on time, and usually accomplished through e-mail. What more can a writer ask for!

Mike James has a keen knack for developing corporate images that are acutely reflective of each company's unique mission. He achieves this through his commitment to truly listen to his clients' needs and desires. His work is reflective of his extraordinary artistic style and originality. He is particularly talented in his command of colors.

Good news, our deep water brochure netted an Award of Excellence, NAGC's name for Honorable Mention at their awards banquet a week or so ago in Baltimore. In all categories, there were about 65 winners from about 550 submissions. Ours was submitted in the "Brochures/Bookets" (produced 51 percent or more outside or contracted sources, excluding printing) category.

Many of the awards of excellence were as many as 4-way ties, so pretty good that ours was only a 2-way, with a product from the state of West Virginia.
