WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
We have a great reputation for having successful projects and satisfied clients, but don’t take our word for it. Read what our clients have to say.
ROBERT CUGINI, PRESIDENT, APPLICATION ARTS (APPART)
“We're proud of the work we do and the value we bring to our customers. Unfortunately, our old site didn't clearly convey what it is we do, let alone why our services were of value. Our new site changed all that. The redesign process started with the fundamentals-who we are, what we offer and why it matters to our customers. GKD did an outstanding job helping us articulate our unique place in the market, and translating our brand values to the web. Since the launch of our new site, we have received inquiries from companies and markets we never would have had reached previously. Our experience speaks to the power of a thoughtful brand strategy and smart web design.”
Janie Garbin, Manager, Schroeter Goldmark & Bender
“GKD was instrumental in helping us define how to move forward with our marketing efforts, and how we wanted our brand to evolve. They took the time to help our attorneys understand and buy into the process, which was important as we moved to implementation. They managed myriad details throughout the process, always with an eye toward moving projects forward. As our new marketing rolled out on multiple fronts, the strategic thinking and planning behind the design was clear. We now have a cohesive look that accurately captures and reflects the spirit of our firm.”
John Zagula, Partner, Ignition Partners
“What a relief to have a firm like GKD to take this website off my plate. The Ignition web site was problematic; it wasn't an accurate reflection of who we were, and worse, I knew it was about to receive a lot of media attention. GKD came in and took over.
"First, they designed a great look. As you can imagine, the bar for usability was quite high, but the solution they developed was novel but simple in a way that made us proud. Second, GKD managed the content, and handled literally hundreds of small details, all on a nail-biting schedule. It started getting noticed the week it went live. That's how good they are.”
dAVID MOODY, attorney at law
“The most meaningful way to assess the work performed by GKD is to review one of their websites. Each website designed by GKD is, without exception, fresh, clean, easy to navigate, and specifically tailored to enhance each client's business. These are not cookie-cutter websites. They are customized and compelling. What cannot be seen by looking at a website designed by GKD is the honesty, diligence, and follow-through of Susan Giordano. Susan worked with me to make my website the very best that it can be, while remaining true to the budget we agreed upon.”
DARRIN STOCK, AMERICAS CHANNEL MARKETING, INTERMEC TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION
“Intermec has never been GKD’s only client, yet I have never felt as though I didn't have 110% of their attention and service. From the beginning of the relationship, GKD instilled in us the confidence to let them do what they do best: design. They consistently ‘hit the mark’ with the design of our corporate, quarterly magazine, even through two complete brand identity changes. In fact, I've never had to request a revision to a design element of the magazine.
“Annual surveys of our sales force consistently rank our quarterly magazine, RealTime, in the ‘can't live without it’ category. Sales people cite RealTime as ‘the one thing that I'm truly proud to leave behind at a sales call because of the image it gives our company.’ GKD has been instrumental in setting high standards for not only the look, but also the content of the magazine. I could not maintain these standards without their guidance and innovation.”
Eric Koivisto, Vice President of Marketing, Avogadro (acquired by Openwave)
“Super-smart people. They don't just design identities to win awards or to please themselves; they design for you, for the client. They listen. GKD doesn't care how hard your technical business problems are; they'll work hard to understand them. Responsive service; thorough, great thinking; strong strategy. GKD also understands the concepts of budget and deadline. Great, great work. Buttoned-up.”
Keith Farrey, Online Manager, Real Networks
“GKD has the ability to anticipate a need and take the next step, which is critical in a strategic web site design and implementation project. They helped us get our web project to the next stage by working through our business requirements process, utilizing and extending our team resources and articulating our branding issues. They are problem solvers, pure and simple.”
Allison Harper, Web Sales Manager, Microsoft
“GKD was extremely prepared. No other agency has ever prepared for meetings like they did. Their questions were always the right ones—a pretty good indicator of just how far ahead they look. GKD took the time to understand the products and they clearly had a grasp on our competition and target market.
“GKD maintained a cool head in the midst of borderline chaos and, as a result, made the implementation process far more manageable. They were a true godsend.”
