I can't recommend Yes Design Shop enough. Alisa, the owner and designer, is creative, responsive,…read morevery professional, and a joy to work with.
I have hired Alisa several times over the past year for projects on branding & identity, print, and email design. Whenever I have an idea for a new project, she always asks the right questions, to help keep me focused on the intent behind a particular marketing piece, or the idea I'm looking to convey with the campaign. Many designers will just take your content and make it look pretty, but Alisa always reads my marketing pieces and I can tell she thinks holistically about my business identity when designing. She will often give me great constructive criticism when she feels a piece strays too far from my brand. I love having her perspective, and her suggestions are always on point.
Alisa has a great eye, as she's truly an accomplished artist as well. Her designs for my business are clean and modern, with just a touch of whimsy; exactly what I asked for. I've received dozens of compliments on my new logo and my email marketing.
My husband and I even hired Alisa to design our wedding invitations and programs. She really does it all! They were AWESOME, totally unique, and fit the feel of our wedding to a "T." We printed one of the invitation pieces on wood veneer and she helped us to find vendors for the wood piece and coordinate all the printing. As anyone who has planned a wedding knows, anytime you can hand off details to someone you trust, it is a blessing. Looking back on the wedding details, our invitations and programs were some of my favorite pieces, because they were very personal. I'm so glad we decided to create these pieces with Alisa, and didn't order a template-based piece from a stock website!
Regarding the practical stuff, like her turnaround time and her fees; she's very easy to work with. I can tell you from experience (and seeing other quotes), that what Alisa charges is very reasonable. She is always respectful of my deadlines, and usually finishes ahead of schedule. She's even made same day revisions for me, when I was under the gun. While, I don't expect this all the time, she's always come through when I really needed it.
Next up for me is a re-design of my business website, and I'm truly looking forward to this as another opportunity to work with Yes Design Shop!
