Advertising Design
If there's any place that our old-school roots in the newspaper business come to play it is print advertising design and layout. To date we've put together ads and campaigns for magazines in Baton Rouge, across the country and around the world and have many a busy client to show for it.

Throughout the advertising design process we'll work with you to make the connection between you and your target audience and show you how advertising principles, when properly applied, will guide your reader through your message and encourage them to act - to call, to find your website, to get more, to talk to you!
We'll work with you to find the right place to buy your media, but we're not in it to make money off the media buy - we only charge for the time and materials necessary to put the pieces together.
We know you would like us to make this easy for you and we would be happy to do just that so we encourage you to get in touch to find out more about how this works and then decide if it is right for you. CLICK HERE to contact us or call (225) 336-5444.

I searched through 27 pages of Google images for pet urns and yours caught my eye first and after looking through hundreds of other websites, yours has the nicest pictures, was the easiest to navigate through, and your style was exactly what I had in mind. I look forward to receiving it. It will be a beautiful way to hold my memories.

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 contacted The Designsmith on a whim because I needed a custom sign designed quickly and had no clue as to a design layout. Paul immediately got back with me from my email request, asked a few questions, and delivered an outstanding product in 48 hours. Highly recommend The Designsmith for any kind of digital design services and I'll certainly be back for future projects!

To you folks that have avoided developing a web page for varioius reasons (lack of knowledge, expense, concearns regarding "what do I need", and other awkward questions), Mr. Paul Miller of The Designsmith will alleviate all trepidations. Lack of comfort with other web developers delayed us in launching Premier Constructors website for two years. However, after our initial meeting, Paul was prepared inside three weeks to launch our site. Don't you lose multiple years deciding!! Paul's ability to design, create, recommend, alter, and remain flexible with your ideas - and his quick response time - made this adventure painless.
Joe O'Banion, President - Premier Constructors, Inc.
I am extremely impressed by the efficiency and creativity exhibited by the DesignSmith. They created a high quality product for us with minimal hassle on a very tight time schedule. The best web design experience I've had in all my years in the political internet communications business.
Patrick Bergeron, President - Category 5 Communications
This experience has been over the top. Your communication and patience with this process was impressive. Plus, your programing skills combined with your eye for design and background in writing, makes your one man show an incredible value. Thank you for your dedication to getting it right and all of the extras you have thrown in. Would do it again tomorrow. If anyone wants to call me about my experience, I will be happy to talk with them.

As the author of the book "Smell The Popcorn: 12 Life-changing Secrets to Pop to the Top," I wanted an updated logo that would really 'POP!' Not only did Paul create a logo for my speaking business but also designed a brand for 'Pop to the Top' concept. I keep getting lots of praise for the new look logos. Paul understood what my business needed more than I did myself. Thanks Paul.
Jerry LePre, Principal - Inspirational Speaker
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!

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.
