“Having used them for several projects…I can honestly say that they are the first marketing services firm I have used in 20 years of professional marketing management that can fully live up to the “under promise and over deliver” business tenet. They give first-rate client service and deliver highly creative projects, on-time, on-message and within budget. I highly recommend them for outsource marketing services.”

“…you and your crew have simply taken our business to another level of success. You designed our logo, then our trade show booth for driving new business, then new rate cards and a brochure, and lastly with this new website. What you created is better than I was even asking for, implementing great design and layout with all the newest technological advancements that people were looking for. Your use of the Blog, the Flickr page, and the live feeds for weather have people coming back daily to check us out. Again, thanks for your great work! I feel lucky to have you as our creative team. You guys are awesome!”

“Marc and his team are awesome. They handled multiple, complex projects with ease. Once Marc is involved I know that I do not need to worry. He handles every detail from beginning to end. All deadlines are met or exceeded. Projects are delivered at or below budget. Marc and his company deliver world-class products and services at Main Street prices. Marc is a permanent part of my team.”

“Mind Lightning is truly outstanding. I would recommend their services to anyone. They definitely think “outside” of the box and come up with ideas-concepts-images that are uniquely your own branding. They are not a cut and paste design team…they take the time to listen. They draw out of you–who and what you are and maybe even what you have not quite recognized as who you can become. Exceptional professionals–phenomonal work. If you need web design, branding, stationary, business cards or even presentation materials that stand out above the mediocre or repetitive–contact this creative design group. You will be amazed if not inspired.”

“We have been so pleased with the close attention you have given our small business. We really feel you want to see our image truly reflect what we stand for. You asked such deep and probing questions we had not considered ourselves.  Once we clarified who we are, you created visuals to reflect it. Your production and delivery times have been exactly on schedule…our customers have made unsolicited comments regarding all pieces you’ve created for us. Our repeat customers, who have seen the before and after, are especially impressed. Several have requested your contact information for their own use. We look forward to a long working relationship with you!”

“I highly value Marc’s creative skills and his ability to recognize opportunities in marketing his company and/or his clients. His work speaks volumes and reveals his talents in design and graphic design. He has an intuitive approach to creating and conceiving a corporate brand design unmatched by many in his industry. Whether he’s creating for a non-profit, a one-person shop or a corporate client, his attention to detail and high professionalism makes him and his design team highly sought-after and often times his final works, outshines his fees tenfold. I also appreciate his personal demeanor, one that is obvious when you talk to him about his passions for charity work, or his devotion to his family or his involvement with his church. Not only is Marc a great business colleague, full of commitment, education and support, but he is a great family man, father and friend. I would recommend him if you are looking for a design firm for your next creative marketing project needs.”

“I began working with Marc about 6-1/2 years ago when he helped me launch my new business as a professional organizer. I really wanted to capture the idea of organizing within my logo and Marc absolutely did just that. I received many a compliment on my business cards. About 4 years ago I redirected my career into insurance and once again turned to Marc to begin my business branding on the right foot. Being the creative genius that he is, he once again produced the perfect logo, supporting print materials and website. He was always willing to listen to my feedback and collaborate with me which was important to me because I wanted to be somewhat involved. He was never offended or arrogant as some creative types can be when you make a suggestion to change a component. I really appreciate the work that Marc and his team have done, and continue to do as my company grows/changes and would highly recommend him to you if you’re serious about taking your business to the next level.”

“This team has taken our business to the next level. Their ideas are fresh and their design is sharp looking but most importantly they NAILED who we are and how to portray that image. It started with the logo and grew from there into a beautiful symmetry of thoughtful design. Our new website captures the essence of what we want people to know about us. During the conceptual meetings with Marc and Brian they asked the right questions and took the time to get to know our business. This true understanding shows in everything they have created for us. It is so fun to give our business cards out and have people comment on the look, feel and design. It is even more fun when business comes in from our website and new clients comment on how delicious our catering looks and how excited they are to work with us. Our old website never came close to capturing that kind of attention. Working with Marc and Brian is a pleasure from start to finish.”
