Zealth Digital can take an outdated website and rebuild it into something far cleaner, more reliable, and easier to use. They’re quick to respond when issues come up, communicate clearly throughout the process, and keep their pricing reasonable. For anyone who wants a smoother, more dependable web experience without the usual headaches, they’re a reliable team to have on your side.

Adam and the Zealth team were fabulous to work with, and I couldn't be happier with the finished product!
My company was in need of a complete website rebuild that ended up being more complex than anticipated. Adam and the Zealth team were willing and able to help every step of the way and have been incredibly attentive even post-launch.
10/10 would recommend!

Crux Creative and Michele have been a key partner and vendor for my business for 10+ years. Michele cares for all our publicity and advertising needs, including printed pieces. Recently, she completed a new website on budget and on time. We are thrilled with the finish design and functionality. She has an expert eye for design and has been very effective in helping us to manage to a tight marketing budget. I highly recommend Crux Creative.

Web Development Review from Michael Arnaldo
We have worked with Bureau of Small Projects as our primary WordPress engineering partner for over three years. They have consistently delivered on technically demanding projects and have been a reliable resource for both development work and ongoing site maintenance.
What distinguishes them is the combination of technical capability and operational professionalism. Communication is structured and consistent, scoping is accurate, and the team responds quickly when issues come up. For organizations that need a dependable agency for sophisticated WordPress work, Bureau of Small Projects comes with our strong recommendation.

Web Development Review from Whit Garling, PMP
We needed a development partner that was highly capable, willing to work through ambiguity, and could handle the pressure of a fast-paced project with a large scope and extremely complicated stakeholder landscape.
BSP delivered on all counts. We could not have asked for a better partner. They truly felt like an extension of our team when things got intense. Always quick to respond to fires, problem solve and offer options, and maintain poise at all times. 10/10 experience!
Highly recommend this team to anyone looking for a world class development partner!

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 Media Marketing Review from David Sallee
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 Design Review from Christopher Calarco, D.C.
Our company had an excellent experience partnering with Jeremy and the 97 Switch team on our website and SEO. The initial build was on a tight timeline that was kept, and after the sites completion we saw a significant increase in new business coming our way. More medical professionals learned about us and wanted to join our network, which was an amazing bonus of working with 97 Switch. We've committed to work with 97 Switch for the next several years given they have been crucial in guiding our plan for growth.

Web Design Review from Justyna Chrupek
We hired them to build a new website. The website was quickly completed in just a couple months, and weve seen markedly positive results from 97 Switchs efforts. It's a new marketing feature that we use on a daily basis. The improved quality has facilitated our communication and made things much easier. Weve received great feedback from our vendors, investors, and customers who want to view our properties. Internally, our staff is excited to see what's going on in our company. We are definitely proud of our new platform. Our executive team is excited to be featured on the new website; previously, they didn't even want their picture shown. Before this redesign, we were almost embarrassed to send out the link. Now, we can comfortably share it with our investors, potential investors, and landlords so they keep track of our updates on a monthly basis. We love how this site presents the face of our company.

Web Design Review from Adam Greenberg
We've seen tremendous growth and exposure. The website has generated a number of new leads and weve received tons of cold calls from potential clients. This is thanks to 97 Switchs efforts to increase our digital exposure. We communicate primarily via phone and email and theyre highly responsive. I receive a response to emails within minutes and they get back to me within half an hour if I request a phone call. They're able to conduct face-to-face interactions in order to truly understand the goals and business culture of their clients. This allowed them to create a design that accurately represented our brand. I've had nothing but positive experiences with 97 Switch and Id recommend them to anyone.
