Thank you so much for continuing to be stellar as a designer and exceptionally patient with us throughout this project. Our board members and our staff are in love with the facelift you gave our website.
I had a business coaching session with David and I tripled my business income. It was awesome!
David gets "it"; he is able to take a concept, a thought, and crystalize the context into an engaging, creative, visual form. I highly recommend David for your design and publishing needs.
Aristotle said "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." This statement perfectly sums up the attitude, process and delivery of David’s work which is always done in a spirit of excellence.
The work you are doing is vitally important to me and the growth of my company and livelihood.
It can be a lot of pressure making a huge decision when it comes to your website. But I have never felt more at ease with any business decision I have made thus far.
Creating a new brand isn't always easy! I'm confident and excited to move deeper into my passions and how I get to share them with others.
Design thinking, for us, is based on a four-dimensional measured approach to confidently move your products or services in the marketplace.
With empty mind, our approach is to brainstorm exactly what your customers are looking to experience with your product(s) and/or service.
In this stage, we explore various solutions to move the data gathered from understanding into an actionable result.
Build quick. Fail fast. Having a proof of concept to test against, informs us how the solution functions and will it sustain itself in the marketplace.
Mission complete. Time to launch. But the process doesn't stop there. We empower clients by monitoring results to see how things thrive in real-time.
My first opportunity to implement design thinking as a solution was about 20 years ago. I worked with a corporate client that published catalogs for their U.S and Canada markets.
They had a team of 12 manually composing the catalog page by page. It took nearly 1,500 hours to complete a 300 page catalog.
Even though there was a proofreading team, it was without fail that some incorrect product pricing and descriptions were discovered after the catalogs were printed.
That meant they had to spend more time correcting errors. And of course, reprinting the catalog.
After exploring a series of "what-ifs", I created an automated data-driven solution that would reduce the production expense and time by 60%.
The client gained a total savings of about $380k over a two year period. Another bonus was that each catalog was completed in a matter of weeks, not months. Lastly, no more reprinting catalogs.
