      After having a bad experience with Elite, I received a call from Cody. My guess, he's a CSR. I was impressed with his passion for customer service so I decided to give them another try. Cody was on top of the job and exceeded my expectations. The boxes were perfect and delivered quicker than promised. I ended up giving them another job. This second box was absolutely magnificent. The prices are fair, the work is good and the delivery was early. My customer is happy...I highly recommend Elite for any custom box. Pics are attached.

      Elite printed a book box for a client of mine for a book set. I included a spot gloss and it turned out wonderfully. The template was excellent and the instructions for specs were very clear. They were swift and available with communications. I will use them again for other clients. I am extremely pleased with how my experience went and with the quality of the printing.

      John was great to work with. Very patient with design emails and he and team helped elevate final design. End product is more than I expected. Thick cardboard, beautiful finish, easy right angle folding, and attached tape to seal top and bottom.It’s beautiful.

      Product Marketing Review from Andrew Kuhns

      We needed packaging design experts who could provide primary display panel concepts that would work for over 2K skus. They took are most common and a few unique PDP layouts and developed a design system that aligned with our brand standards with a modern approach. We are now implementing their design across all of our products. Great partners!

      Package Design Review from Paula (Petrungaro) Steenstra

      We needed an update to our full [lineup] for Hillshire Farm, [a] national brand that participates in several categories. PKG provided a great range of designs that were on target. The final design had great success in the marketplacereally moving the needle on our brand[']s modernity and helping maintain its leadership in the category. But what really sets PKG apart from the rest are the people. A true partnership... I always considered them an extension of our team. (Verified via email)

      Design Services Review from Solyman Najimi

      We worked with the folks at SmashBrand in 2025 for logo and artwork updates for our top product. They were able to take an analytical approach and output--through much testing and a thorough revision process--superior graphics and concepts for our product packaging and overall company branding. We have modernized and streamlined our look and feel with the help of SmashBrand. Early feedback has been positive. We hope the long-term impact will be great.

      Brand Strategy Review from Rob Johnson

      I’ve worked with dozens of design and strategy agencies throughout my career and SmashBrand’s approach is completely unique. They take a quantitative approach to packaging that aligns the most important purchase drivers with the consumer target, and designs around those. They have absolutely transformed our business and are always my first call when I have brand strategy needs.
