Then I ran into Patrick. DualStar is actually a network of dozens of professionals that can cover everything from concept to delivery. When he said full advertising agency, he wasn't kidding. Graphic design, local eco-friendly printing, websites, photo, video direct mail. I was really impressed. He is worth paying a visit, if nothing else to see his new office in Hayward; right near the San Mateo bridge.

I lacked not only the tools I needed but experience. When I met Patrick, it was as if everything came together at once. He has so much experience in media and marketing and also a great personality to back it up. Iv'e had so many bad experiences with people i've called "mentors" in the past and was really hesitant to rely on someone else to learn from. Patrick's genuine style and integrity never failed and I am always looking forward to working with him.

He, Corrine, and his team were so attentive, responsive, and (emotionally) supportive through the entire process. lol. It can be overwhelming creating and rolling out a business, but with their support, I felt so at ease with each step. They had great recommendations, listened to my vision, and carried it out for me. With edits, I was able to ask for feedback or make adjustments easily and it was effortless! I would highly recommend Daniel and his team to anyone who needs a team, builder, or ongoing marketing support. He's very experienced and just a great team to work with altogether. Thank you Daniel, Corinne, and team! So very appreciated!

When I decided to open a business, I knew that I did not want to design my own website. I have seen…read morefriends and colleagues waste their time learning how to build a website rather than focus on systems or other important tasks that can't be delegated. After a referral from a friend who had a great experience, I reached out to D-Kode and could not have been happier. The process was quite smooth and many relevant questions were addressed in their design questionnaire. They were able to set up all the features I was looking for including an Instagram reel and online booking for my clients. Jennifer made a site that I am proud to share with my friends, family and clients. Daniel was extremely responsive, especially when I needed last minute help before the launch. Thanks D-Kode for a wonderful experience.

I have been on the hunt for almost a year now for a company to build me a straight forward easy to use website. Before I found Natalya my company had worked with a few other designers and it always seemed like we were coming up with the look and feel of the site, we were trying to trouble shoot problems, which was very frustrating because we were paying them to do these things. Finally we found Natalya and she immediately took a hold of the situation and helped bring the project to the finish. There were problems that we ran into during the design phase, as all projects have, but Natalya always found a solution before we had a chance to offer our opinions. We liked Natalya so much we immediately gave her a second contract and once again she delivered flawlessly. I recommend Natalya and Sierra Image Works to all of my business associates and friends. Their plans and pricing are as competitive as anybody, but her problem solving skills are priceless. Thanks again Natalya.
