Developing a brand identity and disseminating it to the world over mixed media is a crucial element to the success of a modern business. KIMBO Design was not only up to the task, they executed brilliantly and exceeded our expectations. In all aspects and stages of the project, Kim and her staff delivered impeccable customer service and were all at once, the utmost professional. They were able to take the values and vision of MackLab Design and translate them into an effective communications campaign. A key strength of KIMBO Design is their ability to effectively communicate with their customers. We were involved at every stage of the development process and felt at ease with the creative direction. They were able to forge a working relationship and an implementation process that was very organic.

In addition to a flawless process, the results were impressive. We have received numerous compliments on our media presentations, including print materials, logo design, website, and business card. The design team at KIMBO Design should be commended for their keen and outstanding design skill. They were able to capture the essence of our business with their design expertise. As a designer, I understand that any successful design lies in its details. The designers at KIMBO Design also understand this. We were thoroughly impressed with the level of attention to detail. The designs were captivating and thoughtfully executed.

Kimberley Pickett and KIMBO Design are a success story. Kim’s passion, talent, and relentless work ethic have propelled her from a start up to an established and successful award winning design firm. KIMBO Design represents the heart of the Canadian entrepreneurial spirit and should serve as an inspiration for the Canadian business woman. On top of exceptional quality and impeccable service, she is uncompromising in her devotion to environmental principles within in her practice.

We whole heartedly recommend KIMBO Design.

KIMBO Design did an amazing job on our campaign. We had only a short time before a major Film Festival event launch, but KIMBO Design rose to the occasion and finished a web project that we were told would have taken 3 months to complete. They finished it in just 1 month without compromising quality. The flash animations on each section of the site were well-received and still three years later I receive compliments on the animations and the "look and feel" of the website's design.

I would definitely recommend KIMBO Design to anyone looking for a professional, trustworthy web design company. I commend them on their dedication to our project and on their commitment to deadlines and deliverables.

Our experience with Kimbo was and continues to be very positive. Kim and her crew were professional, explained the process, listened to our ideas and tried to best implement them within the design structure.

They also offered interesting creative ideas and approaches that we would not have been able to come to on our own. Their work was on time and on budget and they continue to offer us services as needed in a timely manner.

The whole process was interesting and fun and we are very proud of the finished product. I would certainly recommend them. If you would like to contact me for more information, please do.

Kimbo Design is a great company to work with. The folks at Kimbo Design knew exactly what they were doing. From creating the mockup of my website to the official launch, I was guided by staff at Kimbo Design on every stage of the project.

They were always in touch with me and I never hesitated to contact them when I had a technical question to ask. I don't know much about the web and how websites work, but the folks at Kimbo Design made it easy for me to understand. They were only an email and a phone call away. Talk about good customer service.

During the time that my website was under construction, the little changes and details that I requested were taken care of right away without any problems.

When my website was up for the first time, I was so excited and it was launched on time as well. It was everything that I expected from my website. If I need to update my website, I would simply pick up the phone and call Kimbo Design.

I would recommend Kimbo Design to any company looking for a fresh new website.
