Testimonials from our clients...

TightOn

"Adrian has been working with us from the beginning and the thing that we thought so great about him was that from the 1st meeting, he got what we wanted. What he has done for us with our logo, leaflets, even down to the wording he uses, was exactly, or even better than how we imagined it. We have total trust in him that when we ask him to create something for us, we know that it will be what we have asked for and in keeping with our brand."

Spence Consulting...

I have known Adrian Marshall as a professional colleague for the past eight years and he has my highest recommendation both as a designer and a person of high integrity.

I have worked in media, public relations and corporate marketing on the Gold Coast for the past 35 years and rate Adrian as among the best of a very select group of elite standard designers and design directors I have worked with during this time.

Adrian and I have worked successfully on a wide range of projects including: new brand development  for professional firms including major legal practices and professional industry bodies on the Gold  Coast and Brisbane; complete marketing packages for major property development projects; design and production of corporate profiles for clients in diverse fields; design of prospectuses and information memorandums for corporate capital raising purposes; and design for an array of web site and web marketing purposes as well as other general projects.

As well as having design talent, Adrian has a high degree of technical knowledge of both print and electronic mediums and brings to employers extensive experience in strategic marketing and advertising concepts.

I have engaged Adrian to provide all of Spence Consulting’s own design needs from development of our original brand and stationery package through to provision a range of different marketing products over the years.

I am delighted to recommend Adrian’s services to any business who need a designer who is highly skilled, honest and has a depth of knowledge that can be used by clients to maximise their advertising and general marketing impact.

Australian International College of Art...

I have had the pleasure of working with Adrian (artsideshow) over the past 13 months whilst employed as Sales & Marketing Consultant with AICA (Australian International College of Art). During this time Adrian and I have re-branded the college and developed a successful new advertising campaign.

Adrian is more than an outsourced contractor, he has been an integral part of AICA's Marketing team.

Having worked with many designers and art directors in my 1 0-year career within the international design and advertising industry, I can confidently say that Adrian is the most professional art director I have ever worked with.

Adrian really understands the client and their needs; he is personable, helpful and approachable, and consistently delivers the highest standard of work before the deadline. Since I have been employed at AICA, student enrolments for our February 2007 intake have increased by 350% whilst for the period of July 2007 they increased by 200%- this is an average of 275% for the year. These dramatic results can be attributed to the college's re-branding and new advertising campaign.

AICA's·rebranding consisted of many elements including:
• Redesign of college logo
• Corporate I D
• Marketing postcards
• College brochure
• Expo banners
• Creation of AICA sub-brands or wordmarks
• Advertising template for print media

AICA is thrilled with the new branding that is now in place. There has been a noticeable increase in AICA's brand awareness in the marketplace. Whilst I am leaving AICA for maternity reasons, I would not hesitate to employ Adrian again in the future.
