SMS Designs provided me with a brilliant website that is perfect for all my needs!
I met with Sean Stembridge who listened to all my needs and who I gave the basic Bigfoot Logo to. From one small logo he came up with a complete consept for my website! SMS designs kept me updated at every stage of the design process and have made me a fresh and fun website, that already has impacted on the profile of my company!
The Brilliant thing about my website is I can update it every day if I wanted! The programmes my company offer to children in schools are always changing and I needed a website which would be easy to update! I am so grateful for the website SMS designs have created for me!
In rating I would give SMS designs 5 out of 5! I continue to use SMS designs for alot of the marketing I do! I am never dissapointed and always amazed at just how impressive the designs are!
SMS Designs produce quality designs for a fair price!
I have no problem in recommending them to anyone!!!

SMS Designs have done an excellent job of designing my site. Sean was in constant contact and worked very quickly. His designs for both the site and the branding we're exactly what I had discussed with him, he knew exactly what I wanted and created designs that reflected my personality. He didn't speak to me in jargon and he made sure I knew exactly what I was getting and what he would do. The quotations he provided were very simple and easy to understand yet everything was explained in detail and the prices were very competetive. Everything about Sean and SMS Designs was exceptional, there was no hard sell just friendly advise and information. I couldn't believe just how fast my emails and queries were respoded too and nothing was ever a problem for him. I am very happy with the final outcome of the site and will definately be using SMS Designs again for my next site and have already recommended them to friends.

After deciding from a few designs I arrived at my chosen design and Sean quickly drew up a specification document for approval.
Modifications to the design were no problem to SMS and quickly implemented.
Once I approved the design the website was up and running on time and budget in 2 weeks.
From start to finish the relationship with Sean from SMS Designs has been a professional, friendly and natural one. I would highly recommend SMS for web site design and logo creation / brading.
Top class fast efficient and relatively inexpensive service. Top bloke.
The company provided me with an excellent service in the time we have worked together. I continue to work with them on a regular basis as I find there work high quality but it also does not break the bank.
Highly recommended + +
