The Designsmith did a website reconstruction for us adding a substantial amount of content and refining the overall look of the site. I was very impressed by the steady communication about options, styles, etc., and also with the suggestions made that were above and beyond what was required. The entire website is better organized and there is an excellent content manageability program I was able to use with ease immediately. We are very satisfied and look forward to continuing our relationship with The Designsmith!

We have used The Designsmith to design several of our companies websites. Paul is very easy to work with and will come up with the perfect answer for your webpage design.
Leslie Hornyak, IT Director - PBOA/Risk Services
Paul was given pieces and parts of information and photographs over several months and he masterfully melded it all into the website that we had envisioned. I appreciated his patience, suggestions, light humor and guidance throughout the entire process. He mastered the project flow wonderfully, hit all of the deadlines and gave soft reminders of what would or should be addressed for upcoming milestones. Staying on time and on budget were very important factors. A pleasure to work with and superbly knowledgeable in his field, I would recommend Paul for your marketing, website and other IT projects.

I was referred to Paul through a business associate and I'm happy that connection was made. Paul did a fantastic job of creating the look & feel of what I wanted for my website - along with an intuitive interface/navigation. Additionally, my project was on-time and on-budget. Highly recommend working with Paul.

Paul Miller, The Designsmith, is an outstanding web site designer who has built two excellent sites that have been very good for my business. Lapolitics.com, launched in 2002, has stood the test of time by continuing to look and work very well. Howtogetelected.com, in 2011, achieves the very professional look that befits the national audience it aims to attract.. Paul works quickly to offer and modify design ideas, collaborating with me at every step. He has a strong sense not only of what looks good but what sells. He is also very patient with his more technically challenged clients like myself. In all, Paul Miller is a consummate professional and creative talent. I would recommend The Designsmith for any web design project.

My name is Scott Lang - owner of Advanced Hurricane Solutions in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I had imagined a concept for our logo and thought it was fairly intricate and wasn't sure if it was right for our business, but was passionate about it. I had approached other logo designers and each mentioned it may be too intricate and were forcing us to go with a more simple concept. I had lost focus on the logo over time and had become discouraged and resorted to a more simple logo design and was about a day or 2 away from implementing it into our company until I discovered Paul & The DesignSmith. Paul asked me to send him what I imagined for our more intricate version of the logo and he came back with a great price and said his team could get it done. A few days later, he sent some rough pencil drafts of different versions, we chose one and through a couple of minor changes arrived at an incredible logo that exceeded our expectations. Paul, you were great to work with, very patient and precise in nailing our concept of our logo. The detail is amazing and I can't say enough how happy we are. Thanks for renewing my passion for this logo and now I know it is right for our company. This definitely gives me a new outlook on our business and am excited to start branding our company with it.

As a photographer and just starting a business, and not knowing anything about the web I contacted Paul and to this day im so glad i did. He has the knowledge and the skill to design the web the way you have in mind. He has worked with me dilligently in web support and making changes to the site from time to time. He made suggestions that i accepted in good faith that really made my site attractive and professional. Everything was done in a timely manner and finished as promised. I recommend him highly for your next web design or upgrade you won't be disappointed.

As a start up company in 2001, PetroSafe contacted The Designsmith to help us with the original design of our website. Not knowing where to start, Paul shared some great ideas with us, and after only a few days ... we were up and running. Paul was extremely easy to work with and he managed to keep our startup costs within our budget. After we were in business for few years, we again contacted the Designsmith to help with the design of our on-line student registration and credit card payment system. Once again ... Paul came through for us with an excellent system that will even allow us to enter and update our upcoming training events with an easy to use administration page that is linked to our website. From our experience, forget about the web based, do-it-yourself designs that are available. You will waste a lot of time trying to learn how to design your site and in the end you will not be pleased with the product. We receive a lot of positive comments on our website design and we strongly recommend that you let the experts at The Designsmith design you website. The end product is an affordable and cost effective investment that will share your vision, properly market your business and bring the dividends that you deserve.
Carl Anderson, CFPS, President - PetroSafe Technologies
Paul Miller with The Designsmith is very easy to work with. He listed to what we wanted and guided us to the best design that would work for our business. Always prompt in answering questions, and the turnaround for our product was done in a fast, professional manner. Would highly recommend Mr. Paul Miller for your design needs.

We needed to redesign our website and had a very difficult time dealing with our previous web designer. After our first meeting with Paul, we knew he was the perfect guy for us! He was very easy to work with and he made the whole process a much more enjoyable experience! We love the design he came up with and look forward to working with him again on more projects! Thanks Paul!

We hired Paul Miller to do an overhaul on our website. We are very pleased with the finished product--it's attractive, easy to navigate and the cost was well within budget.

Overall it was a great experience! I would use him again and I would recommend him to others.

Paul was very helpful with creating a brand for my company. He has a great approach of taking what a company does a portraying that in logo and website graphics. He listened to what our company offers as well as what we wanted it to look like in a logo and website. Being a designer myself I really appreciated the way Paul took care of the client(me) throughout the entire design process. I would highly recommend using Paul for any of the services he offers. You get what you want when it is all over. That's true customer service.

I had no idea of what my logo would turn out like when I started working with Paul. One thing I did know, however, was that I wanted to have something that looked professional and I could be proud of. Paul delivered and, even better, did so for what I thought was a very reasonable price. In addition to this and, perhaps, more importantly, Paul works with his clients with an attitude of patience and teamwork. As for Paul's patience, I found Paul to be a humble person that was easy to work with. Specifically, as my wife likes to point out, I have a type "A" personality who is used to asking lots of questions and getting fast answers. Additionally, I considered the creation of a logo a very important decision. Therefore, I asked a multitude of questions-probably many times the same ones. Many of these questions were also very rudimentary and were probably "dumb." In spite of this, Paul patiently answered them. For example, in a few instances during the creative process, Paul suggested color combinations and general themes that I wasn't sure about. However, after a few hours, I began to like his ideas better than the ones I was beginning to think of. Most importantly, Paul allowed me to be a large part of the process, even if it meant having to go back to his original ideas when I came to realize that his design ideas were better than my own. In fact, this probably caused him to have some extra work on his part. Before I decided to select the Designsmith, I talked to three other firms and they were all fairly insistent that I could limited input until the process was close to complete. I know now that this is because they probably know better what will work and my comments and ideas would slow them down. Still, for me, it's better to feel that I had a part in this creation. If you feel this way also, then Paul's the man to work with!

I want to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional work The Designsmith has done for LIPCA Insurance Agency during the past year. Based on that work, I enthusiastically recommend The Designsmith as an effective partner in the ever critical area of website design and development. Ultimately the look and feel of a website is the measure of a website designer, and the results speak for themselves! The Designsmith has performed exceptionally well and based on these results, LIPCA will continue to be a key partner in the future. Again, thank you for the results!
