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.

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.

Business Consulting Review from Kendra Langer
Awesome Dynamic’s guidance in transitioning us to the Seller Central Platform from Vendor Central has made all the difference. Within the first 60 days, we made more margin than both our Vendor accounts combined, with a lot fewer headaches.
Megan Fanning's Review Sourced from Google
We were referred to Awesome Dynamic by a successful and reputable advertising firm. Janet and her team at Awesome Dynamic are prompt and responsive to our business needs and inquiries. In the time we've been been in business with Awesome Dynamic, they've increased our sales on Amazon by well over 50%. They've reduced our workload tremendously. We highly recommend Awesome Dynamic services.

Working with the Awesome Dynamics team has been a huge help as we’ve grown our Amazon presence. They’re responsive, easy to work with, and always willing to adapt to our specific goals. From strategy to content to promotional support, they’ve helped us stay on track and save a lot of time (and headaches).

Yuli J Khaykin's Review Sourced from Google
We had an outstanding experience working with this packaging company from start to finish. The entire process was smooth, organized, and exceeded our expectations at every stage. From the initial budgeting phase, their team was transparent, responsive, and helped us find the best solution within our target price range. Their design support was especially impressive. They took the time to understand our vision, provided helpful recommendations, and ensured every detail of the box reflected our brand perfectly. Production and delivery were completed exactly as promised, with excellent communication throughout. The pricing was very fair for the level of service and quality provided. Most importantly, the final product exceeded our expectations. The box quality is excellent, durable, and beautifully finished. We absolutely love the final box design. It looks professional, premium, and elevates the presentation of our product. We highly recommend this company to anyone looking for high quality packaging, reliable service, and a team that truly cares about delivering exceptional results.
heather oshaughnessy's Review Sourced from Google
I had a vision in mind for the packaging that I wanted for my business. We created the design but didn’t know if what we wanted was possible. I worked with Marcus for my first order of boxes and the experience from beginning to end was flawless. Marcus was extremely patient with us as we explored the different box styles, paper weights and printing options. When we finally decided on the details we were amazed at how quick the order was printed and delivered!! We were so impressed that we are fast tracking 2 more box designs.

Highly recommend Half Price Packaging for anyone looking for reliable service and great packaging quality! Highly recommend.

Brendan C's Review Sourced from Google
They come across very off putting and like they are on a whole different level and are too good for almost everyone. I don't think many people like to feel small. Their approach and ways communicating to potential business is bad. This type of behavior simply is uncalled for they need to humble and kind.

Michael Lax's Review Sourced from Google
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.
Deb Coldiron's Review Sourced from Google
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.

Ashlee Swider's Review Sourced from Google
I've worked with Scout and team several times over my career and I keep coming back for more! Each time, the entire DesignScout team has demonstrated a collaborative and methodical approach that is equally nimble as it is thoughtful. The team does their homework and they are committed to developing the RIGHT solution. The end results never fail to be inspired, modern and buttoned-up. If you need smart solutions, DesignScout is your answer. I can't go without confessing that Scout has saved more than one of my projects. Her experience and foresight has helped ID and navigate issues before they developed into full-on, budget-breaking or project-stopping problems. We were able to nip it right in the bud and stay on-timeline and on-budget. I mean it when I say: DesignScout is a true creative partner. Professional, organized, timely. And as a female professional myself, I appreciate Scout's boss-lady know-how.
Suzanne Florek's Review Sourced from Google
I highly recommend Scout Design. They are a collaborative firm that listens well to their client. We have had an amazing experience with their team. Scout Design over delivers, listens, meets deadlines and is budget conscious. Every aspect of their design, has been flexible and has worked for us and our new project. Scout Design is overall amazing.
Laura Lencioni's Review Sourced from Google
Design Scout recently guided our company through a major rebranding effort and we are very pleased with the result. As a design firm ourselves, we came to the table with high expectations and lots of strong opinions. Scout and her creative team took the time to really get to know our firm and distilled our input into a strong visual identity. On launch day I had more than one person tell me they were proud of the new branding package because it speaks to who we are as a firm. Scout and her team were a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them.

We are very grateful!

I've enjoyed working with Artisan both on internal projects and being placed with clients through them. While they don't see the same number of roles as some of the bigger companies, they do tend to get jobs with higher pay rates than some of the other staffing agencies - and definitely advocate for the talent when it comes to dealing with clients. I would definitely recommend getting in touch if you're looking for work in a digital/creative role.
Nancy Antol's Review Sourced from Google
I worked for Artisan as a Contract Copywriter for more than three years. The team did an excellent job finding me a contract with an outstanding company. In addition to a great placement, Artisan provided me with very good benefits, including 401K and some paid time off, which is unusual in the industry. I highly recommend Artisan to anyone who is looking for contract work.

In a world of agencies that are mostly out for a quick buck, they build relationships on both the client and talent side. It is a refreshing change of pace to see such integrity. They are fair and honest people that I worked with for years. If you are looking for talent, or have a talent, I can not recommend them more.

Evan White's Review Sourced from Google
One Design is a tremendous design and strategy agency. My company contracted them for web design, creative development, and content creation. Each assignment they knocked out of the park, but I cannot speak enough to their talents for web design. Our company struggled mightily with building our website in-house. We ran into bugs, troubles with mobile performance, and application integrations. Enough was enough, and we brought on One Design. Our website is beautiful, sleek, but most importantly functions flawlessly. The headaches of digging through bugs and finding solutions that work for both a desktop and mobile are site are over. It. Just. Works. What separates One Design apart from their competitors is the process and care they go through before the project starts. They dug into what our consumers truly need out our website, and how they will use it. This ended up uncovering truths about our audience even we were not aware of. Not only were they able to provide effective solutions in the website, but this aided every aspect of our marketing. They are a fantastic agency in every aspect.
