Advertising Review from Ed Andrews
I recently asked Twhn Design to design an advertisement for one of our clients as well as a total revamp of our media kit. He is diligent, hard working & extremely creative. Definitely recommend.
Creative Services Review from Rob Fisher
Shane is creative, hardworking, never misses a deadline and is incredibly accommodating. He can take a half-baked idea and bring it to life (within budget). He is an absolute joy to work with.
Branding Review from Louise Nicholls
We selected Twhn Design having seen and liked Shane's work in the past. Shane took the time to understand our business and find out what we wanted to achieve from the marketing pieces he designed for us. We were working to fairly tight constraints because we are a small business and needed to stay within a budget and produce work that can be used multiple times in different ways. For each item Shane talked through our vision and colour palette. In addition to the marketing pieces we asked him to produce, he also provided a moodboard for us which has been really useful for our ongoing marketing. We're really happy with the pieces he has produced, which include web banners, social media posts, logos and certificates. We'll definitely be using Twhn Design again and would highly recommend them.

Shopify Review from Bob Long
Lance and his team have been fantastic to work with. We needed to redo our website and store into Shopify. We also needed to convert our Affiliate program to Up Promote. Lance went a bove and beyond our expectations. He is super responsive and is very good at understanding the core goals of the business and then helping to create a system that meets those goals as we defined the vision and strategy we wanted to employ. He is very helpful also at helping to figure out ways to use the Shopify platform and the various integrations to accomplish our goals. Sometimes it has required some custome programming and integration. He is very solution centric and is a trusted advisor we have come to rely on. He has been a key part of the first year growth we have experienced as we launched our products. Best person I have ever worked with in this space.
Web Development Review from Mark Brown
Lance has completed the project as originally requested and we are very happy with the results. We look forward to undertaking new projects with him in the future.
Web Design Review from Jack Nazy
This is the second project that we work with Lance on. I would highly recommend Lance for any Digital Agency looking for a responsive and reliable person to work with. Lance not only knows what he's doing, but also takes the time to understand exactly what his clients are looking to get done. If there are issues, he will come in and figure out the best course of action to tackle the job. I highly recommend Lance, and will be using Ruby Digital for another project very soon. Cheers!

Website Redesign Review from Laura Edralin
Sammy is one of those people that if you're lucky enough to find her, you never want to let her go! She's got a brilliant way of understanding what you need, gently clarifying the scope of the work - when everything can feel incredibly overwhelming and unclear from my side! From the moment I began working with Sammy I felt in safe hands. She is an 'above and beyond' person that has made the biggest difference to my business.My investment with Sammy has resulted in an increase in enquiries through my website and I often get comments on how lovely my website is and how clear and relatable my messaging is: often the reason people convert from a visit on my site, to a paying client.The journey for my audience starts when they first land on my page and therefore it needs to speak in my voice, and with my values. Sammy has diligently picked these up and presented my business in a visible way - in a searchable and discoverable way - and, furthermore, I couldn't be more grateful of her collaborative and kind way of working with me.An excellent website designer who SEOs the shizz out of conscious, heart-led businesses, like mine. Get in touch with Sammy, I could not recommend more!
Web Design Review from Sharon Williams
This is my 2nd time working with Sammy. I needed website and branding design for my new training company and going back to Sammy again was a no brainer after the success of my previous therapy practice website.I completely trust Sammy and she really cares about the businesses and the people she works with - only wanting the very best. Sammy's support is second to none. Sammy worked tirelessly to get us launched and creating the narrative behind my branding and logo is a story I look forward to sharing for years to come.I have really enjoyed having you as part of the team for this new business launch Sammy - thank you so much! I wholeheartedly recommend your web and brand design services and your new template shop is a great option for anyone starting out in business.

Matthias Schwarz (Healthcare Founders)'s Review Sourced from Google
I work with KjellDesign on web design and implementation, and I'm absolutely thrilled. From the initial concept to the go-live, everything was handled with utmost professionalism and structure, while always maintaining a pleasantly personal touch.I particularly appreciate the combination of technical expertise, clear advice, and a deep understanding of the brand, target audience, and content. Feedback was implemented quickly, my own ideas were incorporated, and together we found the best solution.The result is truly impressive – modern, user-friendly, and perfectly tailored to my needs. A clear recommendation and a full ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for KjellDesign!
Martina Guhde's Review Sourced from Google
I'm still absolutely thrilled about working with Kjell. The friendly, calm way he explains everything in detail to a "dummy" is unmatched and simply priceless. I felt very comfortable from the very first moment, and all my questions and requests were considered, and if they didn't make sense, he explained exactly why they didn't. That's exactly what I expect from an expert: to say NO when something is simply not feasible or simply pointless (e.g., too small font, illegible fonts, color selection, etc.).I would definitely recommend him and thank you for the brilliant collaboration.

I was starting my own business last year and required a logo, stationery and business card to hand out at meeting and events. I was recommended G3 Creative. Brian the graphic designer understood every aspect of how the new logo needed to feel, and came up with an excellent clever logo, business card and pop-up banner stand that truly exceeded all my business partners and my expectations - you guys have truly gone the extra mile - exceeding our wildest expectations. We could not be happier and I would recommend G3 Creative to everyone who needs a logo or print design.

Creative companies can help your business enhance brand recognition and trust by producing scalable assets for various media and platforms while maintaining a consistent brand identity.
Notably, they can strengthen audience relationships by combining strategy, design, and messaging to produce authentic, memorable, and persuasive content.
In return, this can translate into measurable value for your business.
According to The Multiplier Effect, campaigns with stronger creative quality markers tended to generate higher revenue ROI and profit returns than lower-quality work.
It also argues that integrating brand-building with performance marketing can lift ROI from 25% to 100%, with a median uplift of 90%.
The McKinsey study on the Business Value of Design reached a similar conclusion.
The study reports that businesses with high design index scores grew revenues and shareholder returns at nearly twice the rate of their industry peers over five years.
When choosing the best creative agency for your business, consider the following:
A creative brief should give your firm enough context to understand your business, audience, goals, and project requirements. The more specific the brief, the easier it is for stakeholders to align and for the agency to deliver work that meets your expectations. Here is what you should include:
| Item | What it is | Examples |
| Business background | A short overview of your company, product, service, and market context. Include your value proposition, tone, and style guide. |
|
| Project objective | The problem you want to solve or the result you want to achieve |
|
| Goals and key performance indicators (KPIs) | The specific outcomes you want to measure |
|
| Target audiences | The audience you want to reach, including relevant demographics, behaviors, and preferences |
|
| Deliverables | The exact assets you need, including size, format, and quantity |
|
| Timeline | The important milestones and final deadline |
|
| Budget | The total amount allocated for the project |
|
| Distribution channels | Where the assets will be published or used |
|
| Mandatory requirements | Any required legal, technical, or branding elements |
|
Ask these questions before hiring a creative company to ensure it can execute the campaigns you need:
Creative effectiveness is measured by how well an asset achieves its intended goal, from capturing attention to generating conversions and improving brand recall. The right metrics depend on the format, channel, and campaign objective.
For example, a static social post may be measured by reach, shares, saves, and clicks, while a short-form video may also be evaluated using hook rate, hold rate, watch time, and completion rate.
Here are common performance metrics to track:
A Nielsen and NCS analysis of nearly 500 CPG campaigns found that creative accounted for 47% of sales contribution by advertising element, suggesting that creative quality is often one of the biggest drivers of overall campaign performance.
Rated 4.8 on Google and 4.7 on Trustpilot, DesignRush Agency Directory is a reliable resource for finding creative agencies. We owe this to our executive selection team, which follows a strict screening process when featuring agencies on the platform, assessing key performance indicators, like portfolio, client reviews, and industry reputation.

Creative agencies offer services that help define how brands are perceived in the market. Core creative services include:
Other creative services include photography, print production, experiential design, app design, and ongoing creative retainers. The exact scope depends on whether the creative firm specializes in branding, content, digital marketing, or full-service creative support.
A creative company centers on how a brand looks, sounds, and feels through brand identity, messaging, design, storytelling, and creative production.
On the other hand, a marketing agency focuses on how a brand reaches its audience through campaigns, channels, and performance optimization. Here is a side-by-side comparison for clarity:
| Creative Companies | Marketing Agencies | |
| Focus | Building brand identity, consistency, and audience connection | Driving awareness, traffic, leads, conversions, and revenue |
| Services | Brand strategy, visual identity, graphic design, video production, website design, copy and creative development | SEO, paid media, email marketing, social media management, influencer marketing, public relations, content marketing, analytics |
| Output | Logos, brand systems, creative concepts, websites, videos, and campaign assets | Media plans, campaign execution, lead generation, reporting, and channel performance insights |
While they are distinct disciplines, they often overlap. Many creative companies offer marketing support, and many marketing agencies include creative services as part of their packages.
Creative firms charge between $100-$200 per hour or $800-$8,000 per project. The final cost will depend on service type and scope, design complexity, turnaround time, and firm location.
Estimated price range by engagement model:
Approximate costs per creative service type:
Creative projects can take anywhere between 1 week and over 4 months. The actual timeline depends on the service type, production complexity, and revision cycle. Here is what to expect:
The answer depends on your goals, budget, timeline, and internal capabilities.
