Michelle Marin designed our logo and our website with her excellent design skills. She was on time, very responsive and always helpful when contacted. We enjoyed working with her so much that we will not need to search for another graphic design company. She is our first choice always.

We were generously given 3 initial designs to choose from, then we worked together to refine the design to fit our brand perfectly. She was very communicative and always gave us deadlines for when we could expect the new drafts and final product. We were always kept in the loop of what was going on during the entire process.

Michelle was very timely; the team delivered our drafts and final product exactly as promised.

Michelle has a design style that I've not seen anywhere else. She has a true talent, and we were very happy with her work and judgement.

Absolutely not.

Marin Design created a couple of different logos that I use for my seasoning business. This included asking me for detailed feedback on what I was looking for, multiple draft options to choose from, and options for free edits. I loved the designs so much that I purchased two variations, both of which I use on my products and in our marketing strategies.

Marin Design delivered 2 logos and 4 product labels for me in a very short timeframe. Pricing was very reasonable and allowed me to work within my get products moving that much faster.

I will absolutely go back to Marin Design for future projects! The process was easy and fun, and Michelle was incredibly helpful and a joy to work with. Pricing was very reasonable, turnaround times were quick, and Michelle is always open to suggestions and feedback. Michelle will take wonderful care of you, so that you can focus on taking care of your business and your customers.

For me, Marin Design is a perfect blend of professional "large company" results, with the customer service support/personal touch of a small business. That was difficult to find at first when I began searching for a design partner. Marin Design is a perfect fit for my company and our goals.

I have no constructive feedback to give. I was 100% satisfied, I will return for future projects, and I would recommend Marin Design to anyone I know who is looking for a design partner.

Logo Design for our company rebrand.

The rebrand of our logo was received well by our target audience. We've collected feedback from our market base via social media and received comments like "Your logo looks great and better than the old one!"

The project management was efficient and responsive. They have a secured portal that they used to communicate with us (instead of email). That took a little getting used to, but once we did, it worked well. They delivered our logo ahead of schedule

Virtual Meeting

Creativeness.

The portal they used to exchange design ideas was hard to navigate (sometimes). We would have preferred to use more emails for sharing our design ideas. However, their tech support was helpful and responsive, so any issues we had were resolved quickly. And, as I understand it, their portal is secure to prevent unauthorized people from viewing our ideas. We have a nondisclosure, so we were confident that our intellectual property was safe.

coming up with a name for an uinique basketball academy and facility and a logo and brand identity.

project delivered

I really enjoyed working with them. They involved me in the process of coming up with a name and the band identity. I was given a form to fill out, giving my input and they used it as well as what we discussed in our virtual meetings to work on this project. They also conducted a market research in my area and field, looking at it from a strategic perspective. This not only helped them deliver the project with success, but it helped me better understand my own business. I highly recomment them!

The scope of work was to design a logo around my office. I wanted it to be helpful, creative, and unique. I have never designed a logo before so I did not know what to expect but I did not expecto to have to be the one to come up with the creativity, colors, desgin, ect.

We created a logo.

Delivery time was fine, but did not respond to my concerns. I felt that having to finalize a design that day was difficult. I also was the one to chose my colors, designs, ideas with everything regarding the logo, I felt there was zero creativity that went into this. You had to fill out a branding guide which makes sense but I was literally answering everything that the logo then became, I do not feel that was creative, I felt once I selected the answers it did not go with what I wanted to image to portray for my business. Which was the entire point of hiring someone to be creative with it.

Virtual Meeting

Nothing impressed me other than the fast responses to inquring for a logo. The worst part is having to decide in a few hours, there were no breaks offered, we had to sit in front of the computer for hours while having to finalize a desgin, you cannot stew over it and decide if it is the right fit or not. I ended up using someone in TX who had a 10 minute conversation and nailed 4-5 designs that I struggled choosing my favorite. He was also 1/3 of the cost!! Highly disappointed.

Allow a revision period. Let clients know they will design the logo not the one working with you- they will give rough draft ideas but not be creative, whatever you put in your brand guide they will use exactly that in a logo. ALSO you will not get what is portrayed on the website! It seems there is one woman who does it all but that is NOT the case. the work portrayed on the website is a hired person.. if you actually want those results and creative designs you have to request the owner which is almost tripple the price.
