I initially hired Jodi & Orange Star Design in 1996 to do a complete rebranding for my then 1-year-old internet strategy and web development firm. The experience was so amazing that over the next 12 years my firm hired her again and again to design MANY of the sites we built for our clients. Even after I sold my company in 2009, I continued to work with Jodi & the Orange Star Design team. I now own an Entrepreneur/Executive/Team Coaching practice serving a client base that spans 13 time zones across four continents. I could not be happier with my current relationship ... Jodi & the Orange Star Design team now handles ALL of my brand expression including: • Branding/Positioning, Marketing Consulting/Strategy • Web Design, Development, SEO, and Support • Marketing Automation and Email Campaign Management (even some Business Process Automation) • Social, PPC, Blogging, and Inbound Marketing • Podcast Support and Audio/Video Production • Book Design More than all the support for me and my companies, Jodi has been an amazing resource for the clients and colleagues to whom I refer her. Not only does she make my company look good, she makes ME look like a hero. Once you hire Jodi & the Orange Star Design team, you'll understand why I've relied upon her for TWENTY THREE YEARS!May 14, 2019

Pros:

  • Jodi has managed our website for more than 10 years. She's done a great job making a very small company look much bigger than it is. That big company professionalism helps us get bigger clients than we would otherwise.
  • The process was organized and they even made it fun! I felt Jodi really listened to my needs and created a design that fit, even though I had a couple oddball requests.
  • Jodi helps me ask the right questions so that I get the results I want, not just the ones I know to ask for!
  • Jodi and Orange Star Design is my first choice for all my visual design work. Highly recommended!

Cons:

  • Jodi can't read minds and know today what I'm going to ask her to do tomorrow!
  • Web design is a lot of work! Not their fault though, but anyone getting into this needs to realize the time investment by you to make it worth it.
  • Nothing not to like -- we wish all our vendors were so nimble.
  • No only do I wish that I had found her sooner, I wish I had used her even more!

Overall Experience: We've worked with Orange Star for more years than I'd like to count, and for good reason. Jodi and team jump through hoops for us. We've encountered our fair share of last minute crises, down to the wire projects and so much more over the years and can always rely on her no-nonsense, efficient execution.

Pros:
This firm really, really knows their stuff and has the resources and relationships to bring expertise in where they don't have it in house. There is a process to get what you want done and you know exactly where things are in that process.
Cons:
The process overall is good, but it can take quite a while, so you need to plan for that.
