RNO1 Reviews & Testimonials

UI/UX Design Review from Neil Serebryany
I had the pleasure of working with RNO1 on a web transformation project in CalypsoAI and couldn't be happier. Right from the start, it was clear that they had a very skilled workforce, that had data architects as well as UX designers on board.They gave us a first implementation of your platform to work before your deadline and this demonstrates that they are conscious of time and the quality they want to offer. The look and feel design talents of RN01 are on par with the finest User Interface design and UX skills, moreover, the backend programming is also excellent.Most noticeable was their ability to fit into our working environment and improve the efficiency of our team while advancing the projects. Well done and organized they ensured the entire period was smooth and productive.As for web design and CMS development, I have no reservations in recommending RN01. They can really be considered as an innovation partner.
UI/UX Design Review from DANIEL HARMAN

Branding Review from Andy Dickhut
Ive had the opportunity to collaborate with numerous creative agencies throughout my career and BayCreative has delivered the level of insight, professionalism, and genuine partnership that I have experienced with the best of them. They have been true collaborators, invested in CFCUs vision and committed to helping us bring it to life.Our relationship with BayCreative began when we sought to undertake a full-scale rebranding initiative. CFCU has always prided itself on serving our community with a people-first approach, but we needed a refreshed identity that reflected who weve become and where were heading. We didnt just want a new logo or a new color palettewe wanted to redefine what Community First stood for in the modern financial landscape. BayCreative understood that right away.From the earliest discovery conversations, the BC team listened carefully, challenged us thoughtfully, and helped uncover an authentic narrative at the core of our brand. They guided us not toward trends or gimmicks, but toward something enduring and true to who we are.They have a team of talented creatives who brought our new brand identity to life. From graphic designers to copywriters to video editors, the BayCreative team demonstrated deep expertise. The final deliverables included a refreshed logo, a full identity package, and a bold new brand positioning platform we now call The New Local. This wasnt just a tagline or a sloganit was a strategic redefinition of who we are and why we exist. If you are looking for an agency that will take the time to understand your organization, push your thinking in productive ways, and deliver exceptional creative with professionalism, I cannot recommend BayCreative more highly. They are the real deal!

Davel Creative Agency Reviews & Testimonials
Sabrina Goodrum's Review Sourced from Google
The absolute BEST team to work with on anything!! Let me tell you, we have been working with so many companies for our new business but Davel has been the best and the most helpful team ever!! I mostly want to highlight Marie Poghosyan and Hovhannes Simonyan! Marie has listened to all our needs with such great care. She has been available with all questions! And she has offered incredible support and advice! Hov has been very kind and generous with working with our needs and budget! He cares and it shows. Thank you all so much! You’re the best!!
Joseph Seif's Review Sourced from Google
I've had the pleasure of working with Davel now for the last 3-4 months. I've got to say, honestly, my wife and I have been nothing short of amazed. We opened out medspa almost 1.5 years ago, and for the first year or so were working with a couple different marketing companies that were taking a lot of money with very minimal delivery of tangible help leading to lead acquisition etc. I was reached out to by Marie from Davel and figured I'd give it a shot since I wasn't very happy with the current marketing situation I had. Her and Hov did the intro call with me and I just felt a sense of comfort with them. I felt like there was a degree of honesty/transparency that came across which I hadn't previously experienced in this space. They gave me a good price to trial their services month by month to start. From the very first month we have honestly been extremely impressed. They always have a plan laid out for the month, whether it's for social media content they'll be posting, or video scripts for in person shoots etc. The in-person shooting team who we've now hosted 3 times is phenomenal: Elen (creative mastemind), Gagik (master camera-man), and Marie always prepared with her on-point scripts that combine education with comic relief. Since contracting with them, I've had friends and family regularly stop me and say "whatever you did to your marketing recently, don't change it!" With Davel's help and ideas/creativity, our instagram has truly experienced a facelift, and our business has really started to pick up with calls, bookings etc (and it's only been a couple months). If you're curious as to the "lift" they gave our IG, check out @sm_drip_medspa. I would hands down recommend Davel to anyone looking to grow their business from a marketing/social medial presence aspect. Probably one of the best business decisions I've made.
Ishmael Muhammad's Review Sourced from Google
I worked with Davel over a span of three months on my organizations Annual Report. They were extremely communicative and responsive to all of our needs and adjustments. I definitely recommend working with them if you have a dynamic project that may change or iterate as it is being created. Davel is flexible, kind, and very talented. They also have a team that will accommodate your needs.

I've known Jared for awhile and he is a quality human and passionate about marketing with integrity. He hustles and goes the extra mile for his people and I'm proud to call him a friend first.
douglas Douglas's Review Sourced from Google
I started my outbound telemarketing call center selling Las Vegas vacations in 2010.By 2012 I learned that leads were everything, and everything else was nothing.In 2013 I reached out to Jared's Leads for a test file, and that's where it all began.By 2015 Jared was my number 1 lead source. But it was 2017 when Jared became unforgettable to me.He sent me a test file of leads all from the same state. The test file blew up.I asked him how many more of these leads did he have? 15 million made me smile!That's when the rather unthinkable in the lead purchasing relationship happened.I asked Jared to front me the entire database of 15 million and let me make $3,500 weekly payments."Why would I do that, he asked?" It was an understandable question, and I imagine my answer was colorful.But guess what? Jared said "let's do it!"And that's the kind of person Jared is. I went from 2 call centers to 5, revenues increased by 40%, it was life-changing.Jared Knapp is a pillar of integrity, and you'd be hard-pressed finding anyone to tell you different.
Cody Wilson's Review Sourced from Google
I’ve had a great experience working with Jared’s Leads. I worked directly with Marlon, and every conversation was not only informative but genuinely valuable. There was no pressure — just clear, insightful discussions focused on improving how we operate as a business.The tools and systems they’ve built, especially around AI and strategy, have made a real impact on how we approach our processes and growth. It’s helped us think differently and operate more efficiently.Grateful to have connected with their team and looking forward to continuing to build on what we’ve implemented.
