I've worked with Karen and the team at High-Proof Creative on multiple projects and each one was a pleasure. From content creation and social media management to packaging design they were able to run with the brief, execute each phase quickly, produce amazing results, and keep consistent and clear communication throughout. "
Genevieve Brazelton's Review Sourced from Google
I contacted High-Proof Creative to design our family’s whiskey brand that my great-great grandfather started in the 1800s. I had reached out to a couple other design companies in the past but never even heard back. BUT within a couple of hours of emailing High-Proof Creative the owner of the company replied. I simply gave them some notes and a template design for a little bit of creative direction, and in a matter of weeks they sent me a design that blew us away! It was so much better than anything we could have imagined. It was unique, timeless, and represents the brand perfectly. The only edits we requested were when we decided to change the wording on the back label, and they replied with the corrections promptly so that we never missed a production deadline.High-Proof Creative did not just create a design, they created a logo that my family will be proud to display for generations to come. "

I've been working with High-Proof for the past year on a vodka brand I'm starting and I've had an awesome experience with everyone there. Karen and her team have done an amazing job of designing my labels, website, promotional materials, social posts. They've provided consulting on a variety on strategic questions, helped me find better vendors and in the process have saved me thousands of dollars. I can't imagine this brand coming to life with anyone else. They've been a partner at every step. "

High-Proof was just what we needed when we launched our Hazelnut Bourbon Whiskey in Oregon. Karen was instrumental in setting up events, arranging social media influences and introducing us to potential clients. A bonus was that we found her creative writing skills exceptional and ended up hiring her to write our back labels for our Pecan infused and Pecan Barrel Strength bourbon whiskey which just hit shelves last month. I highly recommend Karen, the staff and services of High Proof Creative! "
