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.
Paul Miller designed the first website for my company. Over the years, we lost touch and my company moved to another vendor. However, once when it was time to revamp our site, I came right back to where I was most satisfied. Paul has great insight on web design, customer and quality of service is great, and his prices cannot be beat for what is received in return. He is straight forward with his suggestions and/or recommendations, and definitely knows his stuff. I love working with him....he makes this part of my job much easier. Thank you Paul!

Working with you to develop my website was so easy and pain free. You were very patient with my lack of computer knowledge. I think the finished product is better than my expectation. Thanks so much for your patience and professionalism.
Lynn Tucker,M.D., Owner - Cosmetic Dermatology Clinic
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.

Thank goodness for Paul and The Designsmith. We talked to other people and they wanted so much money while Paul offered a simple plan of action that is getting great results - and we can afford it! Thank you!!

Paul Miller was easy to work with because he listened to our needs and respected our ideas. His created an ideal website for my business. It is exactly what I wanted and Paul made it come to life. Our business has increased and our customers say that it was easy to gather the information from our site. I will continue to work with Paul Miller. I love how he is patient and continues to perfect and tweak the website when needed. I am extremely pleased with the professionalism and high level of service.

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!

Our company chose The Designsmith for the design of our company website. Paul was phenominal to work with. He created a website design that worked perfect with the image of our company and our profession. I have, and will continue to recommend them to anyone looking for professional design services.

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.

I'm a visual artist who learned to type on a typewriter rather than a computer keyboard and I m not savvy with computer programs. While I wanted to create a website for my artwork, the idea was intimidating. With Paul's encouragement, I took the plunge and am glad I did. Paul designed my website and logo and created complementary business cards as well. Throughout the design process, Paul was readily available to answer questions and make suggestions. He also suggested my website name which is perfect for a visual artist working in graphite and drawing (excuse the pun) inspiration from my garden. Thanks to Paul's experience and expertise my website is easy for me to administer and for patrons to navigate. In addition to designing the site, he also gives me ideas for improving my Google ranking. I highly recommend The Designsmith. Throughout the process, Paul was very patient and professional while continually amazing me with the wealth of knowledge he brings to the process.

The Designsmith made building a website for my company easy, professional and quick. The knowledge and explanation that went in to each step was helpful and impressive. It could not have gone any better. Thank you!
Jill Didier, Owner - FitIQGlobal.com
We consider ourselves very lucky to have hired Designsmith for our web project. Paul's work is excellent, fast and affordable. I am always impressed by the quick response time and the high quality work. We never approach a web or design project without thinking of Paul. Every project is done right, done quickly and on budget. What else is there?
David Schenck, Information Technology Director - District Attorney's Office, Baton Rouge Louisiana
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
We were ready to add some new features to our website and Paul once again came through. He has helped us create a website that we are proud of and one that will grow with our business. Thanks 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.
John Maginnis, Publisher - LaPolitics Weekly / How to Get Elected
It was a pleasure working with Paul on my new website. I am very pleased with the final result and have been very impressed with the continued follow up to ensure any minor issues are addressed promptly. I highly recommend Paul to anyone looking for a new website. Thank you Paul!
