From start to finish, working with Spark DSG was an absolute pleasure. From the initial consultation, it was clear that they truly cared about our brand and what we were looking to achieve with our website. They took the time to get to know us, our mission, and our target audience to ensure that the end result was tailored specifically to our needs. The team at Spark DSG is incredibly talented and creative, and they were able to take our vision and turn it into a beautiful, user-friendly website that truly captures the essence of our brand. They made sure that every element of the site, from the color scheme to the layout, was designed with our brand in mind. The end result was a website that not only looks great but also effectively communicates our message to our audience ultimately increasing our website traffic by more than 220%. What really sets them apart, however, is their attention to detail and their commitment to excellence. They were always responsive to our feedback and made sure that every aspect of the site was perfect before launch. They went above and beyond to ensure that we were completely satisfied with the end product, and we couldn't be happier with the final result. Overall, we would highly recommend Spark DSG to anyone looking to elevate their branding and create a website that truly captures their message. They are talented, creative, and committed to excellence, and we are so grateful for their help in bringing our vision to life. May 12, 2023

Overall Experience: I have worked with Spark for over 7 years. They have always provide excellent service, best practices and realistic timelines. They have helped work with our organization to define scope, avoid scope creep and hone in on realistic expectations. The entire team is excellent and I have never had a negative thing to say about any project we have collaborated on with them. Working with a large global company can be very difficult with so many voices and opinions to be heard, but the Spark team always manages to cut through the noise and get us great results

Overall Experience: Spark DSG led the redesign of the Morehouse College website which was the centerpiece of our branding and recruitment efforts. Spark went above and beyond the scope of work to design a magnificent site that drove exponential ROI. They not only designed the UI but creative the narrative and assisted my teams with SEO and link building work that made this site one of the best for small colleges in the nation.

Overall Experience: I contacted Spark to design the website for my new business. They took the time to find out how I wanted the site to work for my business and my clients and how I wanted the site to feel (fun, inviting, professional). Everyone at Spark was quick to respond to my questions, requests and feedback. They created a site that far exceeded my expectations and they had such amazing attention to detail for every aspect of the site. I can not begin to count the number of times clients and other professionals have commented on how impressive my website is. I know Spark's ability to make a website that is fun, professional and easy to navigate has helped my business grow.
