Reviews
Following relocation and change of company structure Pearson Whitfield required the services of a talented Design Consultancy to provide identity and branding for both print and web. After initial enquiries to a number of design studios Soda Design were appointed; following an initial briefing session Soda provided concept artwork for comment and review. Throughout the whole process communication between parties was good and without complication, design development was positive and effortless on our part. Soda Design met all our requirements delivering on all fronts in terms of quality, programme and cost, their professionalism, understanding, innovative design work and enthusiasm were very much appreciated. Pearson Whitfield would have no hesitation in recommending Soda Design to any company/organisation large or small.
Once I'd established what I wanted my website to do, and written a brief, I sent it to several companies as the starting point for discussion, ideas and prices. Soda Design were friendly, enthusiastic and had good ideas about ways to maximise impact and promote good design without costs spiralling.
I was also given clear step by step advice (useful for a techno-phobe) about ways to do things like add a news page and keep it updated, which keeps the content feeling fresh and current.
I've had lots of compliments on the site - it's ensured that my company is visible, clearly and professionally presented - and that my clients know about projects and successes in a way that's visual, interesting and arresting.
I'm very happy with what was achieved.
