Artsy Geek - Oakland, California

Analise S.

Working with Artsy Geek is one of the best decisions I've ever made, no exaggeration. I worked with Artsy Geek to build out my business story and brand guidelines, including a "vocabulary," logo, color palette, and value statements. I get complimented all the time on my visual presentation, but more than just that the very act of going through Artsy Geek's brand and self exploration process was integral to my developing a strong business brand that's separate from but true to my personal self. I'm a realtor and I actually loathe self-marketing, so I wanted to work with Jen, Michael, and Becca to find a way to create a distinct professional brand that communicates who I am and what I offer without losing my entire life to what really should be a job with boundaries. Artsy Geek absolutely nailed it; they distilled everything I am and want to be professionally into a handful of core assets, and it legitimately changed how I approach my business. Worth every hour and dollar, they're so good at really hearing you and translating what you say into "product," and they're funny and smart and caring and generally great people to boot. Thank you so much for everything, I'll be back if and when I'm ready for new collateral or if I ever go in a new direction brand-wise!

I have used several different web designers and graphic designers over the years, but Jennifer and Michael at Artsy Geek were able to combine design brilliance with a strategic marketing plan and really help tie everything we were trying to do together. They are patient, thorough, and detailed oriented, and they really listened to our wants and needs. I would recommend them to any small business that is ready to take the next step and wants a mature marketing strategy for their business.

Artsy Geek are professionals through and through. My website needed a major remodel and they guided me through the design process and were always receptive to my ideas and what I wanted. It was a complete re-brand and now my business looks more polished and outshines the competition. Couldn't recommend more highly!

As a solo entrepreneur, I've had to get by with doing a lot of things myself that I'm no expert in. Graphic design has been one of those things. I got by for a while making some simple stuff on my own, or hiring online gigs but nothing ever really looked polished and professional, and there was a noticeable lack of continuity. Since I started working with Artsy Geek, who really took the time to understand my brand, voice, customer, and vision, my whole brand identity has come to life!

I've had eye-catching sidewalk and building signs made, luxe door hangers and postcards, clean and crisp print collateral, and outstanding social media graphics that all elevate my studio brand and reflect what my business represents.
There's something that goes deeper for me than just having good-looking branding. Every time I see the work that Artsy Geek has done for me, it fills me with a sense of pride in my business and hope for its growth. I feel so confident when I'm able to leverage images that spark and communicate what I love most about my business. Having that attitude helps me stay in the mindset I need to be in as a small business owner.

The Artsy Geek team deliver! Thanks to Artsy Geek my website looks better than ever, is easier to navigate, and finally has the professional look-and-feel that I've been seeking. The WordPress backend makes it simple for me to update and add content, exactly as a CMS should be. The custom coding and design make my site unique, not just another cookie-cutter template. Their on-going SEO and social media consultations will help me ensure that I my site keeps drawing traffic, and that I stay connected with my community of customers and supporters. I highly recommend Artsy Geek's services!

I am a local entrepreneur whose education business has been severely impacted by Covid. In the midst of rebranding and pivoting into some new market areas and directions, I came across Artsy Geek's website while looking for both SEO and possibly social media marketing help. Thru the course of an 1.5 hour strategy session, Jennifer made so many useful and creative suggestions that I struggled to write them all down. Her experience and intuitive grasp of what I needed (and needed to hear) were excellent. She also gave me a morale boost that was definitely needed. I've so far implemented only a small percentage of what she recommended but with very encouraging results. There was great value in the session, and I enthusiastically recommend that if you're facing any sort of business conundrum or obstacle whatsoever that you schedule a strategy meeting with her. You'll also find her to be engaging, likable, and friendly. Highly recommended.
