Paula Kappes's Review Sourced from Google
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.

Murphy Wallbeds Chicago's Review Sourced from Google
We at Murphy Wallbeds Chicago could not be happier with the job that Crux Creative has done with our website. Their attention to detail in both design and maintenance is second to none. Michele Allen has gone above and beyond for us, creating a intuitive and attractive site and responding to any issue we have immediately. If you are looking to create a website, Crux Creative is the firm to use.

97 Switch Reviews & Testimonials
Christopher Calarco, D.C. Executive Clinic Director at Accident Treatment Centers
5.0★
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.
