We look forward to working with Kristof Creative again."

Michael is an exceptional talent with a rare combination of business savvy, real-world experience, creativity, and project management skills. His results were outstanding on every level and he went out of his way to keep me informed and involved at every stage of the process. I would recommend Michael's company, Kristof Creative, without reservation.

After trying all of the web design and SEO optimization myself, I felt that Michael Kristof was able to take my web page to the next level. I really should have been in touch long before I did, I would have saved more money in the long run.

Richard Martin

We were very, very pleased with Kristof's work. He was informative, objective, creative, responsive and adaptable to our unique needs. He was ready and able to offer critical suggestions and focused on the finished product rather than telling us what we wanted to hear. We highly recommend Kristof's company to anyone needing their services.

Daniel McNamara
President

Kristof Creative turned out to be a trusted voice in a virtual world. When I needed a new logo for my almost 100-year-old business, Michael asked the right questions to allow for the design of a logo, letterhead, fax and memo cover that fits us perfectly. His customer service is second to none.

Dear Michael

During the time we worked together to get out the March of Dimes Report I really did not have the opportunity to let you know of my awe and appreciation at how you turned the database and our original word document with some pictures, tables and graphs into the incredible publication it now is. My copies only arrived in SA a few days ago and since then I have really enjoyed reading something that a few months ago I was truly tired of seeing. The layout, design, colours etc make the Report so readable.

Yesterday, I received an e-mail from the geneticist who I consider the most qualified in the world to comment on our work. Her comment was simple: "A tour de force", And your contribution certainly made the tour eminently and pleasantly available.

Thank you
Kind regards
Arnold

We needed some existing logos professionally redrawn and are very pleased with results from Kristof Creative. The communications were excellent and production time much faster than expected. Thank you for providing all the formats for us to reproduce our corporate image both web-based and print productions. A very satisfied customer.

We really appreciated the quality of work provided by Kristof Creative. From the very beginning Michael wanted to be sure to understand what we wanted in our website. He was so easy to work with and was always quick to reply to our questions. When it was finished, he had captured our vision perfectly. Once we got our website online we got comments like "WOW!!!", and "That's the best website I've ever seen!" We couldn't agree more. Thanks for your ingenious creativity that allowed our website to come to life!

We are very impressed with the professional style and creativity demonstrated by Kristof Creative. We now have a professional logo to help set us apart from our competition. The process was educational and the consultative approach helped us a lot. We actually scrapped one set of logos we bought from another designer just days earlier and adopted the one born out of the creative mind of Mr. Kristof.

A good company slogan can mean the difference between a great first impression and being just one of the crowd... Through a consultative and probing process, Michael helped us identify and communicate the essence of our business in just three simple words - Where Luxury Lives. We confidently place a lot of trust in Kristof Creative and count them as a true partner and friend of our company.

Once you have a logo and a company slogan you should be able to assemble your own business card and letterhead, right? Well, that's what I thought - at first. But with a lot was riding on the first impression we make on new vendors - we knew we could trust Kristof Creative's skills, creativity and ability to deliver quickly. With lightning speed, we had business card designs (for front and back) as well as letterhead that doubles as our sales sheet template. We can't say enough about Michael's abilities. We've found a true partner who doesn't mind sharing great ideas during the process. We've benefitted from many of them already.

We engaged Kristof Creative to design the architecture and functionality of our eCommerce Web site. The process, which was like talking with a very knowledgeable friend, helped us think through ideas we hadn't even considered. If you're looking for someone to whip up a Web site, this isn't the place to stop. Keep looking. Once you've seen what is out there and what others are offering - this is where you need to come back to and seriously talk with Michael. He'll knock your socks off with the first project he does for you. Originally, we were impressed with the work we saw on the Kristof Creative site. Now, we're impressed with the blueprint of our own Web presence because we had Michael work on it for us.

Michael and everyone at Kristof Creative met and then exceeded my expectations. Design and customer service were truly way above the bar. There was nothing unpleasant about my experience w/Kristof Creative, and I now consider them my only stop for ad work.

Steve Tyer

I was extremely pleased with your overall design experience. The winner to us were the personal feedback sessions where we had the opportunity to go over, in detail, the completed design questionaire along with Michaels' personal valuable recommendations. You've reinforced the element of 'personalized service'.

Thanks to your team for their creativity . We will be back.

Kristof Creative was able to take nothing and turn it into some of the most impressive and functional promotional material my company has ever used. Thanks, Michael!

Perry Trest

You were creative and responsive. Every single person who has seen the flash piece that you put together and made a part of the presentation has asked specifically about getting it and using it! That, in particular, was fun, educational, and a great enhancement! It is the type of addition that helps make a presentation memorable. My CEO loves it, he presented the PowerPoint to our Board and they loved it! etc.

Very much so. Even with my crazy deadline and last minute changes, the designer was very accommodating, and professional.

On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate our services?
-- 10 --

Would you use our services in the future?
Absolutely. I plan to use Kristof Creative for our Corporate Program presentations.

Michael is a very gifted Web site designer with artistic flair and a good sense for business needs. I have received many compliments on the design.

I have had the good fortune to work with many excellent print and Web designers, but have not often assumed the role of "client." For this reason, I am always surprised when I'm reminded just how much work goes into producing something that looks as simple as a business card or letter head product. Michael made it clear at the beginning of the project that he has well-established design and client communications processes. He agreed to produce a strong logo design for me, as well as business card and letterhead designs. He got the job done on-time, and I am very happy with the final products.

Rarely these days do we get more than what we asked or paid for. As a point of fact, we're typically disappointed with the end results. I'm delighted to say that after careful consideration, choosing Kristof Creative to facilitate all of the art conception, design and direction for this new album was truly a world series home run. They were able to visualize our thoughts, capture the project's energy and ultimately deliver a finished product that surpassed our hopes and desires. The feedback that we have received about the album's art work is inspiring and exciting.

In the music world, the listener's first impression of the album is what's on the cover. In some cases, it's longer lasting and more impacting than what's inside.

In closing, Kristof Creative has exceeded our needs, broadened our horizons and provided us with a product that was more than what we asked or paid for.

Thank you for your vision, hard work and professionalism.

A huge thank you for your outstanding work in designing Genome Cosmetique's corporate ID, including logo, package design, stationery and business cards.

It was a challenging task to design a look and feel that is consistent with current industry standards, but at the same time reflects novel and progressive design.

It was a delight to experience your creativity and your response to project needs, as well as your willingness to accept and incorporate design recommendations as we continued to refine the designs. Ultimately, I believe you created a truly distinct design that allows us to stand out in a n industry filled with noise.

I look forward to working with you again and if you ever need a reference, I will be more than pleased to share my positive experience with your prospective clients.

Dan Davidson

Michael Kristof has done the art direction for the Crossroads Film Festival for the first and third festivals and has consistently done exceptional work for us, always more that we asked for or expected. He has done all the design work for our website, poster, t-shirts, brochures and virtually all of our printed materials for each of the festivals, and his work has always exceeded our expectations with fresh and innovative ideas for each proposed project. His design work never fails to receive high praise for its uniqueness, clarity, and originality. In addition to his obvious talent, he is also very easy to work with, constantly meeting our deadlines even when we have been late in getting materials to him. I would recommend Michael for any design work without any reservation.

Great ideas sometimes have many fathers. The creative work around the Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania launch is outstanding, I know it was the collective work of both the Boston and Tyson Corner teams. Whatever chemistry you folks developed, it's working.

I know we'll make a great first impression on the Pennsylvania market.

Thank you all for a great job.

Best regards,

Mark J. Formica

I just wanted to write to let you know how pleased my company is with the logo and letterhead design that your company created for us. You successfully married our company's vision with a layout and design that embody who and what we are at Better Homes. Not only was I impressed with your finished product, but so was our largest and best customer. You've really helped us enhance our image in a very competitive field. Thanks again for your unrelenting efforts. You are a pleasure to work with and I look forward to more profitable dealings with you and your company.

I expected to pay hundreds of dollars for my bio. I was quite surprised that Michael sent me a quote for at least half of what others were charging. On top of that he made me sound like a million bucks!

Well the positive feedback has been flowing since the creativity session yesterday. I’m sure many different points you made will help start a more positive process toward open-minded approaches. Thanks for taking the time to prepare, travel, and present this for our group. Not to mention making me look so good for finding a diverse presenter. I’ll be sure and thank Dave too, for sending me your way.

If interested I'd be glad to give you a plug to other related groups on campus if they need a creative outlook boost.

Thanks again.

Wow! The results we've seen have exceeded our expectations. Your search engine optimization and copywriting techniques have not only got our site listed within the top ten listings, but in multiple cases our site is listed four and five times!

We're amazed at the results and look forward to working with you in the future.

Thanks again for all your hard work.

On behalf of the Staff Conferences Committee and the whole department, I want to thank you for your mesmerizing presentation on creativity. Personally, I could have listened to you all afternoon!

Your suggestions for releasing the creative spirit within us, for developing messages that are paid attention to, and for working effectively as a team were on target as well as inspiring. It was evident that you are passionate on the subject. It's great you are so willing to share your insights with others. I feel that your presentation was quite well received by those in attendance. We are most appreciative to have had you speak to our group.
