Our company has worked with The Designsmith now for almost one year. When we began we had an idea of the look and feel we wanted for the website. There was very little knowledge on our part of what getting to that point involved. Paul made this process very simple. After a couple of brief meetings he began design and we were able to actually see what the site looked like as it was developed. We launched the site in July of 2008 and since that time we have had absolutley no problems of any kind with our website. We have recieved many positive comments from our customers about the new appearance and ease of use of the new website. There have been a couple of changes that we have made from the company side and i have to add that in these cases, Paul was immediately available and the changes happened in a 24-hour period. This was very important to us. In all, we have had a very positive experience working with The Designsmith on our website from beginning to end.

We love the new batonrougetennis.com website! The new design is fabulous! I am glad The Designsmith was able to organize all of our information and make it easier to find what people are looking for. I also LOVE how easy it is to update the website. I can put in new information or update existing info, click submit, and "poof" it is updated in the site!! Thanks for all of your help along the way too!! You are easy to work with and I appreciate your patience while I learned my way around the admin tools.

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 gets design concepts quickly and gets them done. He is very responsive to the needs of the customer, and he listens to what WE want. He also has maintained our site with great care and attention, suggesting reasonable and necessary upgrades and protections that are critical in today's online environment. Paul is friendly and genuinely cares about how our site looks and functions, and he is always there to help.
Rusty Jabour, Past President - Greater Baton Rouge Community Tennis Association
My new company needed a web presence, but I feared I would have to engage a web designer in a far off locale who didn't speak my language. I was introduced to the Designsmith by an old friend. The professionals at the Designsmith coordinated our needs; facilitated the necessary communication, and offered a vision of a final product. They turned it into reality seemingly overnight. I can't report being happier with a vendor in years! Their work was prompt, professional and poised. And when I have had changes to my site -- as I'm sure all web customers do -- the Designsmith has handled them in the same manner. I am a satisfied customer.
Jefferson Angers, President - Center for Coastal Conservation
Paul was reccomended to me by another satisfied client of his and I can honestly say that he has earned another! Our company chose The Designsmith for the design of our first company website. He patiently guided me through the process and was a pleasure to work with. His patience and creativity developed a perfect image of who we are and what we are about. I would highly reccomend The Designsmith for anyone looking for professional website design services.
David Nelson, General Manager - Castle Rock Pavers, LLC
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.

I am very pleased with The Designsmith. Paul was able to figure out exactly what I needed. He met those needs with professionalism and care. Also, he was very easy to work with and made my project enjoyable.
Carl Barkemeyer, Owner - Carl Barkemeyer, Attorney at Law
Working with Paul to develop our new website was a great experience. Working with other designers is not always easy, but Paul listened to our preferences, made suggestions to improve them, and then implemented the ideas beautifully. He was always available to answer questions and was extremely responsive to phone calls and emails. Overall, the experience could not have been better! I would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to create a website!
Zach Broussard, Project Manager - Jeffrey Carbo Landscape Architects
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!
Debra Credeur, Program Director - LA Dept of CRT / Atchafalaya Heritage Area
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.

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.
Suzanne Kimball, owner - Louisiana Praline Company
The Designsmith has proven to be one of our most valued resources and sales tools at No Fault Sport Group. Paul continues to impress me with timely reponses to our many requests and his overall knowledge of the hidden "nuances" of the internet. In the ever changing world of the internet, it is comforting knowing that the Designsmith is a part of our team!
David Brantley, Owner / President - No Fault Sport Group, LLC
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
Paul Miller is very responsive, very organized, and when you have a concern regarding the web page you get him and not any intermediary. He usually corrects any areas of concerns or new additions with in days if not hours. Obviously, the complexity may make revision take a bit longer but I want to emphasize his efficiency. We have looked to other vendors for comparable services and Paul has always been the one to rise to the surface. His pricing is extremely competitive and in this area, he has always come out on top as the most cost effective (for web page design, maintenance, and web page hosting costs) of any vendor we have interviewed. The Baton Rouge Clinic's relationship with him has gone back many years and I have personally worked with him for over 4 years now. The most important part of any web page is who owns the web page itself (not just the content) at the end of the day. Paul's firm does the work, but the purchaser would own the web page. For most design firms, the web page is licensed to the purchaser and its presence on the web is contingent upon an ongoing contract with that web design firm. As you can imagine, owning your own page offers much greater flexibility thus this is a very valuable asset. (Plus it speaks to the firm's level of confidence that he does not try to anchor you to him by a licensing arrangement, it is his service, value, and creative product that will keep you with the firm. Paul's pricing has always been fair for both programming as well as hosting the web page for us. You are welcome to visit our site. While we keep it straight forward (in part due to the older patient population we serve), it works well for all of our patients.
Harold D. Brandt, MD, FACP, Medical Director - The Baton Rouge Clinic, AMC
It quickly became apparent why Paul came so highly recommended. Not only does he bring his vast experience and expertise to your project, but he is a pleasure to work with, very helpful and extremely patient as he guides you through the website development process. In the end, we were left with a great website and one unanswered question - 'Why didn't we go to him sooner?'
Jimmy McGee, Owner - NOVA Consulting, LTD
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.
Kay Legleu, Owner - Dubois Winery
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
When it came time for a new website, I came to Paul with the goal of creating a website that would reflect the experience of visiting our gallery in person. The end result is even better than I anticipated. Equally as important, Paul was a pleasure to work with in the design phase and really took the time to understand our business and the message we wanted to send. The end result is a website that we are proud to have our name on. Thanks Paul!
George Clark, President - Taylor Clark Gallery
