Andy Blevins Chief Executive Officer at OutServe-SLDN (now Modern Military Association of America)
5.0★
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!

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!

Integrated Marketing Review from Rebecca Hummer
When we set out looking for an integrated marketing partner almost ten years ago, we were not sure what to expect. Catalyst dove in to help us with social media and other outreach. Soon, they were deeply integrated into our team providing a wide range of support for both ongoing marketing tasks and more focused campaigns. Their unwavering dedication to our cause, communications insights and expertise have been transformative, consistently empowering our team to achieve results exceeding our internal resources and capabilities. If you're looking for an integrated marketing agency, I can't recommend them enough.

Digital Marketing Review from Emily Timothy
A competent, creative and technically savvy team of people who care about their clients. We were really happy with our experience working with Catalyst. They listened to what we wanted for our business and implemented it seamlessly. From the branding overhaul and clarity, to the design of our site, technical support and design for our digital product, and finally the digital marketing campaign - everything was done professionally and with great care for our vision. Highly recommend.

Branding Review from Michael Nelson, MBA
We've worked with Catalyst for about five years (on too many projects to count) and they are enormously talented. Our project team was built around our unique goals. The collaborative process tends to feel more personal than other agencies I've worked with because of it. Project management is very communicative and on point. Their strategy, creative, and technology teams are also well-staffed and comparable to the best I've ever worked with.

Horrible place. The owner is classless, disrespectful and tacky. Do not go to this agency. If I were to rate zero stars I would.

Adele Griffith's Review Sourced from Google
After considerable review of proposals from several firms/agencies, we kicked off our project with NEWMEDIA and we knew the project timeline was aggressive but realistic - which we liked very much. Midway (or about midway) we made a few changes, which prolonged the project timeline and the NEWMEDIA team handled it exceptionally.
