Success

What is success to clients?  Innovation.  Integrity. Usefulness.  Satisfaction.

Skaggs.org: “Jan worked with us to develop our website. She took information we gave her and helped us define our goals, market, and audience for the site.

She prepared several alternative layouts and graphics for us to consider. It was an exciting, stimulation and valuable process which aided us in clarifying what we expected from the site and how best to achieve it. We are very pleased with the end result.”                  -Philip Jelley

CTJ Real Estate: “The printer said, ‘Really good design - Simple, but you can tell they really know what they’re doing!’

What I felt was unique in your approach was providing a  suggested philosophy or approach to my business that would then be carried  through in style.  Then you quickly designed a substantial set of choices,  complete with verbal as well as visual components. Once I selected the one I  liked, we were off & running. It was fast and accurate.”
                                         -Carol Jekabson

City Spirit Natural Pages: “Thanks for doing such a beautiful job on everything. The cover is gorgeous. The articles are beautiful. Thank you for all the gazillions of hours you have worked.”
                                             -Kathy Peters

Moving Center School: “We have been looking for a designer like you for so long! Thanks so much for helping to take us to the next level with your artistic eye and skill. I look forward to working with you next year on our website.”
                                           -Kathy Altman

e~clips Hair Salon: “I really love my new logo and how it printed out on the business cards. After so many names and designs, this one ended up being really ‘my’ identity and not the old ‘Jays of Marin’ I had for so long. Clients really love the hipper location and sign.”
                                             -Kim Clayton

Group X: “The proposal was delivered last Weds successfully.  It looked great.  We have been invited back for a stand-up presentation of the proposal - wish us luck!

I wanted to thank you so much for all your hard work with the proposal. It really was great working with you and we will be calling again! For sure!”                         -Monica Thompson

Oberon: “I just spoke with Michael Ogura. He liked the content very much! So great job! We'll probably need to edit abit for the brochure but I'll flow it in just to see how it works. I think we will just need a brief paragraph to make sense of the Fine Art resource section of the brochure. Thank you!”                      -Suzanne Anderson

enCompass: “After three completely different business names and countless designs, we’ve arrived at a choice of logo for our stationery system. We’d also like a logo we can use in Word documentation so we can customize proposals to clients. Thanks!” -Michael Malloy  

TFI: “Thanks so much for designing our logo, complete stationery system, and first brochure. We love the silver foil and classy, yet high-tech look of everything. It was wonderful to partner with you and develop this corporate identity.”                                         -Robert Sanderson

ST&F: “The choice of our logo has reached a happy end. We have finally decided. It has been a very hard task since all the final proofs in color we received from Jan were all very, very elegant and tasteful. We can reasonably say we have achieved our objective -- having produced a very elegant, classy & pleasant logo.”
                                         -Oscar Madeddu

Fair, Isaac: ”Jan demonstrated strong leadership skills with an eye toward fiscal accountability for the 7 years I managed Corporate Marketing. She not only built & managed a multimedia business (Presentation Services), a graphics business (Creative Services Dept.), but added value in every way she could to foster the Marketing Division’s effectiveness.

Her contribution to building Fair, Isaac’s brand identity, increasing awareness & equity is apparent -- from stationery systems, to corporate art, to signage, to templates for documentation & presentations. She was also responsible for successful efforts in strategic planning & design of entire identity systems for alliance partners. Recently, she established online standards for Web pages.”   -Rachel King

Video Project: Thank you very, very much for ALL your help with John's Retirement party.  I think it was very successful -- thanks to you and your contributions!! The video was a masterpiece! I think we succeeded in creating a mood that was fun, but tasteful and honorary.
