Shon Barnwell Events LLC.'s Review Sourced from Google
In a single word, Stingray Branding is phenomenal! A year after relocating to Summerville, South Carolina, I fully mapped out my plan to relaunch my event planning company. I intentionally chose a small, veteran-owned business as a measure of solidarity. The team transformed my 7-year-old website with surgical precision! I love how perfectly they captured the elegance and warmth that I envisioned. Every detail - and I mean, every single nuance communicated - was executed with genuine professionalism, authentic enthusiasm, and beautiful creativity. They are superb listeners and masters of their craft. I am immensely proud to showcase my company via the website designed by Stingray Branding – and will continue to sing their praises to everyone I meet! #ThankYou #StayImpactful
I spent almost a year thinking about what I wanted every square millimeter of my side business's logo and website to look like. There was a specific vision I had for these projects, and I had sky-high expectations for whoever I chose to hand the tasks off to. Stingray took those sky-high expectations and exceeded them, landing among stars in another galaxy. I could not possibly be more thrilled with the logo and website they provided me!
We're a client with a lot of needs and changes due to the volatility of sports marketing. Stingray Branding has helped us with 3 websites, run our social medias, and helped grow our organization for years.

Patrick Black's Review Sourced from Google
Trust is a huge thing when working with creatives, Trust that they understand a vision, trust that they will be a Steward of your brand trust that they will be there when they say they will and deliver what they say they can do and in the case of Craft they do everything right, always to the highest level and the correct way.
Eric and his team are rare finds! They gave me the perfect mix of their insight and experience paired with my vision and mission. They listened and they executed in a way that was very personal yet extremely professional… a delicate balance that Eric has mastered. As someone who is not particularly “creative”, I am amazed at how they deciphered my ideas and crafted a powerful, winning strategy driven by stunning media packages.
What a fun, relaxed, and creative team! It was such a pleasure working with Craft Creative. Production went smoothly, everyone was so professional, and the talent (from the makeup to the shot setups) was all well done. It's always so nice when everyone vibes so well together, and this was definitely one of those sets :)

PDMG is very knowledgable when it comes to Amazon. Very kind, responsive and was able to help our business grow! I wouldn't have any hesitancy working with this group again.
Tried for a couple of months to get an Amazon seller’s account set up by myself. Impossible! Contacted Phillip, and his team jumped on it. June was awesome, knowledgeable and great at her job. A perfect experience from start to finish!! Thanks y’all!
Phillip and team did wonders for our brand on Amazon. They were extremely efficient, competent, and fun to work with. Most importantly, they increased sales while decreasing ad spend! Not a feat that many can accomplish. A huge thank you to PDMG for being our biggest cheerleader and most reliable partner. Highly recommend.

The team at 2020 created a superb film promotion for our end user fundraising programme at Phoenix cinema and art centre in Leicester. They were strategic, professional, friendly and always a pleasure to work with. The end result was highly professional and just what we were looking for. Thoroughly recommended!
Great experience!First of all - I passionately hate being filmed or photographed.2020 Media came in to our office to recored a video about our company and I was really scared of this! I shouldn't have been, they've made it an amazing, painless experience! More than that, it was highly professional and fun. Becky had a great script and was really friendly and understanding.

Michael Bills (Mike Bills Entertainment) Review from Google
5.0★
Michael Bills (Mike Bills Entertainment)'s Review Sourced from Google
As the sole owner of a professional DJ service in the Charleston, SC area, competition is tough and getting even tougher, especially with all the “Best City accolades” that Charleston is receiving. When it’s just you, you are not only tasked with finding business, but you are also the marketer, the web developer, and everything else that goes into generating revenue. Building and designing a website is something over the past 6 or 7 years that has increased in complexity, especially with Google and it’s ever changing search algorithms, and the importance of being mobile. A tech savvy person might be able to piece together a template or basic website, but can they be seen and generate revenue? After meeting Michael Waters of Advent Design, I threw out what very little I knew about websites, SEO, and design. After investing some money in a national SEO business that netted me very little or no results and very poor customer service, I knew there had to be another way. I wanted to work with someone local, someone who I could grab a coffee at Starbucks with and chat with. The bottom line is this, I am not a web developer. I am a professional wedding DJ who needs to increase his leads and bookings. In order to do this, I decided to retire my amateur webmaster skills and employ a true professional to take over this task. And I might add, a very important task seeing as though my website IS my store and if it’s not working properly I am more or less out of business. Michael Waters is the consummate professional. When we first talked, I had reservations about a site rebuild, simply because I had put so much time into the existing site. Michael gently gave me my options. After thinking about it, I decided a professional re-design was my next step because it would correct all the errors that were killing my ranking and allowing users to drop off my site. It’s going to take some getting used to not fiddling around with a website, but now I will have more time to work more leads and generate more income because I won’t have to worry about this stuff. Michael Waters keeps up to date with every little change that Google makes in their search algorithms and any other pertinent SEO tweaks that will benefit his clients. As business owners, we simply don’t have time to do this. Michael gave me helpful information to provide temporary fixes to my existing site even before he started on my site redesign. When a bride comes to me and doesn’t have a coordinator or planner yet, I recommend one for sanity sake on their wedding day. Well, as a business owner, I am now going to recommend any small business who is serious about increasing revenue and having more time to dedicate to their business and whose store is online to have a professional like Michael Waters of Advent Designs do a “professional” design job on their website. You can’t just build a site and do nothing, there are tweaks and content changes that need to happen. You need someone like Michael watching over you. Think of Michael like a financial planner, he’s a guy that is telling you what needs to be done with your money / website to generate even more income and stand out. I strongly recommend Michael Waters of Advent Designs. You won’t be disappointed.*UPDATE* 12-8-17 After close to 18 months of working with Advent Designs, I can think of no better business decision than hiring these guys to build / design my site and get my site my ranked. Opening your own business is one of the best decisions you'll make, but hiring these guys is equally as awesome, and I promise it will be for you. Give them a call yesterday.
I've used Advent Designs to boost our Google rankings and they have done an amazing job. When we started off we didn't rank in the top 50 for anything and now we have multiple high volume keywords that we rank in the top 3 on Google for. We really couldn't ask for better results. Thinking about how much we wasted outsourcing work to India to have Advent turn things around for us in 6 months time is kind of sad. Go with with someone you can actually talk to locally.
I've had Advent Designs totally re-brand or basically brand my company. He did our brand manual, new website, all our marketing materials, everything. He did a great job with our brand concept. Excellent service and met all our needs. Anything that I think of that the company needs, he designs and makes happen. It so nice to now have a uniform brand across all platforms.

Matchstick Social is the real deal when it comes to social media and advertising!
