Have used Paul at The Designsmith twice on two different websites and have gotten great results both times. He listens to what my needs and ideas are and incorporate them in the design while ensuring it will meet my expectations.

Paul did a great job of taking our information and transforming into a professional and attractive website. We were very pleased with his work and timely manner in handling all our needs.

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.

We are so grateful for your experience, expertise, and patience and are so proud to call this work of art and science our own!!! Thank you for every word of encouragement and advice we have seen for ourselves why those four references I called in the beginning wouldn't let me off the phone and kept singing your praises about how good and how fast you are. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We agree that you really are the best in town.

I came to Paul with a website that someone had designed for us years ago and now needed some changes. The problem was we didn't know how to get into the account and couldn't locate the previous designer. Paul came in and rebuilt the site and helped clean it up. We never had any down time for the website and Paul had it fixed in a timely manner.

Paul Miller is easy to work with and shows a true interest in his clients' businesses. I have received many compliments on the website he designed for me. It is also easy to maintain and update.

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. I enjoyed working with Paul - he's pleasant, patient and professional. I was especially impressed with how responsive he was and how quickly he took care of whatever I needed. Overall it was a great experience! I would use him again and I would recommend him to others.

Paul Miller was wonderful to work with on the redesign of our website. He was easy to work with, professional and completed our job in no time at all. Above all, he had the patience to slowly walk us through steps we didn't understand.
He's great to work with, and we'll be repeat customers! Thanks again Paul!

Working with The Designsmith for developing our company website was a pleasure. He worked closely with me on a daily basis making changes and replying to all questions and concerns we had. Not only did he listen to us he also made suggestions to the design and layout. If your looking for a web developer or digital graphics design The Designsmith is top notch. We are glad we went with Paul and even happier he was local.
Tom Hanson, Recruiting Consultant / IT Manager - The Eastman Group LLC
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.
Angel McGee, Marketing - Red Stick Armature
The Designsmith handled a comprehensive redesign of our firm's site and we are extremely pleased with how it turned out. Paul demonstrated a clear understanding of our needs, coming up with a design that is eye-catching and unique, but still appropriate for a law firm. He was easy to work with and responsive, listening to our feedback but still providing us with his own take. We recommend him without reservation.
Brian Juban, Partner - Keegan DeNicola
The Designsmith created our site about three years ago. As a group of IT professionals, some with large web development staffs, we could have done the work ourselves. But for a number of reasons, we sought a firm that could do the work for us. That was a good decision. The quality has been great as has been the timely response. As with most websites, ours has evolved to meet our changing needs. Paul and his staff have repeatedly enhanced the site and the administrative "backend" to allow us to make much of the information dynamic and within our control. I've already said that their response is timely, but now we can do more on our timeline without waiting at all. Some recent updates to our conference registration portal have allowed us to offer more to our participants, making our conference more attractive to potential exhibitors and attendees. Includes some pretty sophisticated programming for the "shopping cart" functions we needed. Maybe I shouldn't say this, but their fees are reasonable too. Great work Paul...and guys behind the curtain.

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!
Allen Herring, IT Manager - LIPCA Insurance Angency
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 thank Paul @ the Designsmith for taking my website out of the stone age. He did an amazing job!! The site is easy to navigate for which we have already had complements on. I would recommend Paul to any of my friends looking to revamp or do minor updates to their sites. Very professional to detail. Myself being someone that has never done any of this type of work before, Paul took the baby steps with me until I caught on. Again thanks to The Designsmith for such an amazing site I have now.
