      Web Design Review from Jo Maney

      DDC has been an excellent partner since we engaged with them in 2023. The DDC team worked with us to completely redesign our website and work to provide ongoing digital marketing services. The DDC team has been responsive, proactive, and thorough with their work. They are also very transparent about how they operate and how much time special projects will require. We have referred DDC to several clients and partners thanks to their outstanding process and product. DDC is a very professional, creative, and well-organized team.

      Web Design Review from Sapna Doshi, Ph.D.

      My experience working with Design in DC was incredible. Everyone was friendly, approachable, and seemed to genuinely care about helping create the best possible website for my business. They were also invested in making sure the process was one in which I enjoyed and felt taken care of. The regular meetings made me feel like I was a priority and that progress was continually being made. I so appreciated the attention to detail in regards to the user experience. The collaboration in understanding my wishes and desires for the website and user experience was met with patience and paying attention to detail on my behalf. Not only were they taking my suggestions but offering their own to help me maximize the potential of my website. The design and functionality is more than what I could have imagined. I know, undoubtedly, that the work that Design in DC did for me will help my business grow. After wasting money in years past on website designers, I was worried I'd be doing hte same here. I was wrong. I don't think I'll ever need to search for another website designer group again. I would recommend this group to anyone I know. Thank you, Design in DC! It was an absolute pleasure working with all of you!

      Creative Services Review from Andy Blevins

      Social Driver provided branding services for the merger of two national LGBTQ military & veteran nonprofits. They incorporated insight from two boards to produce a name, logo, and branding package. The deliverables have all earned high praise, with the logo and overall brand being versatile and simple. All deadlines were met and communication was a highlight. Their smooth and streamlined process helped us pull everything under the same umbrella to have a united front. I highly recommend them!

      Social Driver provided social media marketing workshops and advice for the departments on campus which were involved in social media marketing, such as alumni, athletics, and advancement. Their staff provided in-depth instruction for all appropriate staff and follow-up conversations to support their work. Social Driver has very strong technical skills. They also demonstrate a very high level of insight for applications of social media that go far beyond technical insights into human insights.

      Web Design Review from Eileen Kessler

      My company worked with Social Driver to redesign the UX/IA for a national scientific organization's extensive research resource that was moving from print to online. There was a tight deadline to conceptualize a new user experience and create a framework that our client could review iteratively. Our client was very pleased with the results of the new interactive framework and design. This design was used for the build of the web site which began immediately upon completion. Highly recommend!

      Web Development Review from Amanda Kendrick

      Adam and his team at Encite are absolutely exceptional in everything that they do. I know that I can reach out for anything at anytime and get an answer back right away. If ever there is something I want to change on our website, no matter how big or small, I know that Adam and his team will respond right away and make the changes with very little wait time. Not only are they great with site modifications, they also have saved the day on more than one occasion with graphics and other special projects. They really can help with just about anything and our company views them as one of our most valuable and utilized vendors. I would highly recommend Encite to anybody looking for help with Marketing and Websites.

      Media Buying Review from Abby Miller

      We recently opened a retail store in Parker, Colorado. Since we are not native to Colorado, we were in need of a way to get our name out there. Adam and his team have gone beyond our expectations of what an ad agency would provide for our business. They helped us understand our brand, learned our priorities and continue to implement them into our marketing and advertising. We have an on-going relationship with Encite and look forward to what we can accomplish together in the future.

      Digital Marketing Review from Undisclosed

      On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the highest rating, I rate D2 a 10. As someone who worked at an ad agency/PR firm, I know how hard it can be to meet a client's expectations, yet D2 has done that and more with us (the Rail team at ODOT). I look to them for expert advice and recommendations, outstanding and effective creative, and responsible fiscal decisions—and they deliver finally, I know they will be our advocate in trying to help us accomplish our goals. and that is ultimately why I highly recommend this organization!

      Quality work, good communication. Worked with Houdini on a brand refresh and accompanying new website, as well as ongoing SEO work. I'm equally happy with the quality of their work, their respect for the parameters of our budget and preferences, and their ongoing communication and support. It's obvious that each team member really cares about service and results.

      The Houdini team is creative, talented, and highly professional. I work for a small local business who recently relaunched under a new name and vision. We had worked with Houdini on previous websites with great results so there was no question that we would use their services for our new website and branding. Houdini was diligent in understanding our new vision and created meaningful and memorable branding and an absolutely extraordinary website. They are consistently professional and responsive and worked hard to consistently meet our tight timelines. I can't say enough great things about this team. I highly recommend!

      Sharing our students' incredible stories is crucial to connecting with more people with mobility challenges who could benefit from our TangoStride Program. The team at RH Strategic took an interest in our mission and generously offered to spread the word pro bono. They pitched our story to just the right people, and landed us two local media stories with major news channels Q13 Fox and KING 5! Not only were they instrumental in our outreach to the Greater Seattle community, but they were extremely knowledgeable about the media process and their guidance was invaluable. Thank you, RH Strategic for helping us help people "Dance to Walk" with TangoStride!
