Creative Services Review from Antonio Philantrope
Jigna was professional, patient, responsive, and highly collaborative throughout our CHOKOPAM branding project. She helped develop brochures, banners, event materials, tablecloth designs, and multiple refinements as our brand continued to evolve. She was always willing to incorporate feedback and work toward the best possible result. Communication was excellent, deadlines were respected, and the final deliverables were provided in print-ready formats. I would gladly work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a creative designer who is committed to client satisfaction.

Dan S.'s Review Sourced from Google
I was seeking a web developer, logo designer, and overall brand expert for a business I was putting together. A friend referred me to Kural Design after I had lamented to him that I was having trouble finding a firm that was easy to deal with, and could serve as a one-stop-shop for all of my start-up business needs. I'm compelled to write this review because my experience with Kural Design was awesome. They took the time to meet with me on several occasions and were truly engaged in learning my vision, which they ultimately translated to a very sophisticated and user friendly website. On top of that, they produced my business logo and provided all collateral material so I could order stationary and marketing material with just a few clicks of a button. Everything looks very professional and I attribute the business I have acquired over the past few months to this fact. After I launched, realizing how little time I had, I ended up contracting KD to assist me in maintaining my website for a nominal monthly fee. No brainer! I would absolutely recommend Kural Design for anyone who needs print or digital marketing, logo design, or just help with brand alignment. Thanks again KD!

We had a wonderful experience with TEAMS Design! They use an "outside of the box" approach and provided us with extremely innovative ideas for our new equipment design.

Kirsten AD's Review Sourced from Google
I've enjoyed working with Artisan both on internal projects and being placed with clients through them. While they don't see the same number of roles as some of the bigger companies, they do tend to get jobs with higher pay rates than some of the other staffing agencies - and definitely advocate for the talent when it comes to dealing with clients. I would definitely recommend getting in touch if you're looking for work in a digital/creative role.
Nancy Antol's Review Sourced from Google
I worked for Artisan as a Contract Copywriter for more than three years. The team did an excellent job finding me a contract with an outstanding company. In addition to a great placement, Artisan provided me with very good benefits, including 401K and some paid time off, which is unusual in the industry. I highly recommend Artisan to anyone who is looking for contract work.
erik johnsen's Review Sourced from Google
In a world of agencies that are mostly out for a quick buck, they build relationships on both the client and talent side. It is a refreshing change of pace to see such integrity. They are fair and honest people that I worked with for years. If you are looking for talent, or have a talent, I can not recommend them more.
