Q: Why did you choose 16toads Design over another design company for your project?

My vision for Buttons of Hope was to number one, be unique and secondly be a company that people would talk about. Paul's experience and design skills helped craft a website that is professional, interesting and engaging. I wanted a website that was not boring but not gimmicky -- in buttonsofhope.com I have that!
Michael Gibbons, President, Buttons of Hope

We choose 16 Toads to design and create our web presence over other companies, for a few of reasons. First, their design, it is unmatched for the price. You may get the same level of design and you will pay double for it. Second, their degree of professionalism, which is rare in most web development companies. Third, their intuitiveness in guiding us in through the design process. We showed them what we like and don’t like and they were able to decipher/translate that into our website.
Michael Shariari, VP, Ecologic3

I researched quite a few web designers but after reviewing their portfolio, I was convinced that 16toads was going to create illustrate the overall creativity and unique identity that we were seeking for our logo and branding.

We chose 16 toads for its diverse creativity and fun straight forward approach to the project.
Scott Blackwell, President, Immaculate Baking Company

Before selecting 16toads for our website, my client and I interviewed a total of seven design firms. 16toads stood out for a variety of reasons. Paul Burton’s design style and animation skills were a major selling point. 16toads provided a thorough proposal and clearly described the process. Additionally, 16toads was competitively priced for a website of Perennial’s magnitude. It was a unanimous decision for our team that we partner with 16toads for our website redesign and expansion.

Q: Describe the project results, customer feedback, or overall success of the project?

Paul has an uncanny ability to read my mind -- to me this is more important than the technical part (which Paul has too) of building a website or developing a brand or logo. The process is both a subjective and objective but the amazing stuff is in the subtle nuance. Paul was always willing to push one step further than he needed to -- I always felt like I got his best effort -- not just what was required to fulfill a contract.

I am sure clients like me are the hardest challenge for designers -- we know what we want and expect -- yet we also want our designer to improvise

My biggest fear was first not getting what I wanted and secondly not getting what I did not even know I wanted! I guess in the end Paul is an "artist" -- the perfect designer who knew how to take my vision and then expand upon it. An good example of Paul's ability to collaborate, Paul designed my amazing logo -- towards the end of the process although we chose different designs as favorites -- in the end I selected the logo you see today -- our discussions really helped me focus and in the end select a logo that I am proud of and that perfectly reflects my company.

Michael Shariari, VP, Ecologic3

It was a very pleasurable experience working with 16 toads throughout the entire process. Paul was very straight forward and organized in the way he approached design and execution.
Scott Blackwell, President, Immaculate Baking Company

Paul was invested in the success of the project from the beginning and made himself available at every opportunity to personally meet with the client to ensure he understood their business goals. In addition to tremendous work ethic, Paul was devoted to making sure the client was pleased with the graphic representation of the product. 16toads provided several concepts for consideration, and was more than flexible when edits were requested. 16toads offered a unique Client Gallery, where our team streamlined communication by uploading comments and content. Paul was always accessible, made edits promptly, and always aimed to make our experience positive.

I have had amazing comments from individual users and large non-profits alike. The design is pleasing, user friendly and technically superior. Working with Paul we were able to make a site thay is fresh and has it's own sense of humor! He can be a pretty witty dude!

Our site was well received by our customers. We received praise for the navigation as well as the overall look and feel. We believe we gained additional consulting and technology customers from the ability of the website to draw the customer to the appropriate area of the site designed for them.
