What a Few of My Clients Are Saying...

One of the things I am most proud of as a small business owner is that most of my clients are repeat clients.

My clients hire me again and again and again to help them with the graphic design, marketing and website design for their small businesses. I take this very seriously and I am very honored. It is one thing to gain a client, it is something completely different to take care of that client for the long-term.

Taking care of my clients is exactly what I have built my business upon.

Here are what a few of my clients are saying about what it’s like to work with me and the results we’ve achieved together...

 

“…our website visitors went from 600-700 monthly visitors to a whopping 2099 visitors in the month we launched our newly redesigned site...”

“We recently hired Jeanna Pool to redesign our website in coordination with the launch of our Leica Camera workshops. Jeanna, as you can see from the screenshots I emailed you, our website visitors went from 600-700 monthly visitors to a whopping 2099 visitors in the month we launched our newly redesigned site!

I am really happy about the way people are flowing through our site and visiting the very concise sections that you helped us define. From what I see (from our website traffic statistics), there is a very good balance of traffic across the different sections of the site, and this means that our message is getting out in the right way.

Jeanna, we found you and your associates to be very patient with our two person company that has become incredibly busy with little extra time to devote to marketing. We appreciated the fact that you managed the project in a way that was sensitive to our needs, and at the same time, you gently prodded us along to keep things on track. In the end, that is what made this a successful project.”

Scott Geffert — Center for Digital Imaging (CDI) — New York, New York

 

“…the first ad you created generated a contract totaling $55,000…”

“Jeanna, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the professional work you have done for us these past few months. The ads you have created have been highly successful in generating new business.

In fact, the first ad you created generated a contract totaling $55,000 consisting of 26 couples traveling to Mexico for a couples retreat!!

I can’t express enough my appreciation for the success of our advertising resulting from your expertise. I look forward to a continued and successful relationship with you.”

Olga Hellweg — Global Travel International — Highlands Ranch, Colorado

 

“Jeanna’s professionalism, talent and incredible skill were just what we were looking for… It is our sincere belief that if you have found CATALYST creative there is no need to look any further.

“We have often heard that having a distinct logo, transforms you into a distinct business—and that was our goal. As new business owners in the area, we knew that an effective identity was extremely important to set us apart from the rest of our competition.

Initially we interviewed several graphic design firms, but none of them could pin point exactly what we wanted—until we met Jeanna Pool from CATALYST creative.

Jeanna’s professionalism, talent and incredible skill were just what we were looking for. CATALYST creative was able to take all of the information we gave them about the type of business we are, where we want to be, our vision for the future and the overall mission for our business and create an outstanding logo—which definitely sets us apart from other individuals in our profession.

One of the most remarkable things about our experience with CATALYST creative was the process, precision and accuracy Jeanna used to create our new logo.

Since the inception of our new logo, CATALYST creative has also designed our stationery package and direct mail for our business. We will continue to use CATALYST creative for ALL of our future marketing activities.

It was a clear choice to use CATALYST creative for our marketing strategy because they represent class, quality and dedication.

It is our sincere belief that if you have found CATALYST creative there is no need to look any further.

“…we have been very successful in renting the property to vacationers. We are very happy and highly recommend
CATALYST creative.”

We hired CATALYST creative to design and construct the website for our rental property in Breckenridge, Colorado. As a result, we have been very successful in renting the property to vacationers. We are very happy and highly recommend CATALYST creative.”

Bob & Vicky Most — Bear Pause, A Breckenridge Condo Get-Away —
Breckenridge, Colorado

 

“We also recognize our weaknesses…which is why we retained the services of Jeanna Pool of CATALYST creative.”

“As small-business owners we recognize the importance of keeping costs down. We also recognize our weaknesses. Neither I or my business partner are gifted in the area of marketing, creativity and graphic design; which is why we retained the services of Jeanna Pool of CATALYST creative.

"Our website redesign has been live for only 1 day, and already
our call volume has increased by 10%."

"We have been working with Jeanna Pool of CATALYST creative, inc. for the past 4 years. The reason we keep coming back to Jeanna for our Marketing, Website and Graphic Design needs is because her passion is reflected in the work she does.

Through her specific questions and detailed process she is able to motivate us to focus on what it is we need to convey so our audience will respond... then she in turn translates that into a work of art that successfully gets our message across.

Jeanna knows what works in a website, and just as importantly, what doesn't work. Today, with so many consumers researching your business on the web before they even walk through your door or give you a call, it is imperative to present your business in the best way possible. Our website redesign by Jeanna does just that.

Our website redesign has been live for only 1 day, and already our call volume has increased by 10%.

Unmet expectations are extremely frustrating. We have never experienced that with Jeanna. She has always exceeded our expectations. Jeanna is not the cheapest, but she is very easy to work with. Jeanna you are worth every penny spent and we highly recommend you to anyone, especially small businesses. Thanks."

Tony Peña — BEST on Broadway — Englewood, Colorado

"You are WORTH ever PENNY I invested with you...
I can now see websites are just the tip of the iceberg
of your incredible capabilities."

"There is only one word that describes Jeanna Pool and Catalyst Creative... WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally, a designer who understands direct marketing!

Jeanna... you were able to take my scattered, tattered vision for my website and create an incredible work of art in a comprehensive website that will bring in a flood of clients to my business. You helped me see beyond the first page and guided me through the maze of what will work and what won't for my site. Your initial questionaire was my lifesaver and your whole process made the experience very enjoyable.

You are WORTH ever PENNY I invested with you... I can not thank you enough for making me look so darn good.

We will definitely be working together again in the future, as I can now see websites are just the tip of the iceberg of your incredible capabilities. You have definitely won a customer for life!"

Dennis Gerik — The NiCHE Coach (Small Business Coach) — Seattle, Washington

 

 

“…Jeanna is at the top of all the other designers I have seen
and worked with.”

“I have worked with a lot of graphic designers. Most designers only design for their egos and make cool looking graphics that have nothing to do with conveying a marketing message. Unlike others, Jeanna Pool of CATALYST creative focuses on getting the message across. She designs so her work will make an impact and a profit. She doesn’t do “pretty pictures”. Her design never gets in the way of the marketing message, it always supports it. Jeanna is at the top of all the other designers I have seen and worked with.”

Ted Walker — The Pressroom — Denver, Colorado

 

“…to date we have five new tenants, received an additional 30 phone call inquiries and are almost to capacity.”

As part of our marketing effort to lease to capacity our new senior apartment complex, we contacted Jeanna Pool of CATALYST creative.

Jeanna spearheaded the creation of a postcard direct mail campaign, which advertised move-in specials for our new apartment. Jeanna’s process was very thorough and valuable. She took the time to learn about the apartment building, tenant profile, rent structure and our management company. From that research she created a professional, highly effective campaign.

The entire cost of the campaign would have been paid for if we leased to only one new tenant for the entire year. But, to date we have five new tenants, received an additional 30 phone call inquiries and are almost to capacity. We are extremely pleased with the results and will not hesitate to use CATALYST creative for our marketing again!”

Alfonso Silva — ComCap Asset Management, Inc. — Englewood, Colorado

 

“…graphic design that communicates and helps to reinforce
our clients’ messages…that’s what we have found in
CATALYST creative…”

“We don’t look for or need design for design’s sake. We need graphic design that communicates and helps to reinforce our clients’ messages…and that’s what we have found in CATALYST creative. And that is why we will continue to work with CATALYST creative.”

Judy Forbes — Tailwinds Marketing — Denver, Colorado

 

"…I must tell you, the brochure is spectacular!…"

"Hi Jeanna, I'm just back from a two day strategic planning retreat and found the NAWBO In Good Company Conference brochure that you designed in my stack of mail.

I must tell you, the brochure is spectacular!

I knew we had a good design and interesting copy, but the look and feel of the printed piece you designed exceed my expectations in every way!

You've created a superb marketing piece for our conference. Thank you very much."

Peggy Sundstrom — Co-Chair for the 2007 NAWBO-Denver In Good Company Conference — Denver, Colorado

“…interviewed several graphic design firms and decided the best firm to hire was Jeanna Pool of CATALYST creative, not only because of her design expertise, but her extensive knowledge
and success in marketing.”

“The Board of Directors endorsed the process to update the image of our Chamber of Commerce. Creating a new logo, tagline and designing new letterhead were the first steps to the Chamber’s “new identity.”

Initially we interviewed several graphic design firms and decided the best firm to hire was Jeanna Pool of CATALYST creative, not only because of her design expertise, but her extensive knowledge and success in marketing.

Jeanna gathered historical information, learned what our short and long term goals for the organization were and thoroughly discussed the use of color and design ideas to achieve the results we wanted.

In just a few short weeks we were able to unveil the new logo and tagline! It captures the progressive spirit of the newly re-organized Chamber. And, we recently learned that Jeanna received an industry award of excellence for the design of our logo! CATALYST creative is definitely award-winning in our book!

We would not hesitate to recommend CATALYST creative!

“The completed Marketing Report Card™ I received was very informative and it was easy to digest and handle. Now I know exactly where I need to get to work.”

The minute I sat down with Jeanna for my businesses Marketing Report Card™, I knew immediately that Jeanna really knows what she’s talking about. Jeanna asked so many honest questions that really made me think long and hard about my business. Some of the questions I had never even thought of.

During this process, you really have to be truthful and take a hard look at where you are. You can’t get away with anything—which is great because you really know where you stand. You’re not just fibbing your way through, pretending everything is great, you know what needs to be changed. The completed Marketing Report Card™ I received was very informative and it was easy to digest and handle. Now I know exactly where I need to get to work.”

Tim Hancock — Kennedy Hancock Realty — Denver, Colorado

 

“…Before you settle for home-made graphics for your business, I highly recommend you talk to Jeanna.”

As a newer small business owner, I tried to design my own logo and stationery in order to ‘save some money.’ After several weeks of revising and tweaking, I thought I had something that was close to acceptable. However, after seeing Jeanna’s portfolio, I realized that even though I was in the design field myself, I could never come up with something as professional-looking or as appropriate for my business as the examples in Jeanna’s portfolio.

Jeanna was great to work with. I really enjoyed her system of capturing exactly what I was trying to convey for my business. The logo and stationery she came up with is truly exceptional at projecting precisely the image that I was looking for.

Working with Jeanna was well worth the investment. Before you settle for home-made graphics for your business, I highly recommend you talk to Jeanna.

Michael Schock — Michael Schock Architects — Denver, Colorado

 

“…CATALYST creative was the clear choice for this project.”

The work presented to the In Good Company Conference selection committee by CATALYST creative was ‘cream of the crop.’ CATALYST creative was the clear choice for this project. We are very excited to be working with Jeanna to develop the logo and collateral materials for the NAWBO-Denver In Good Company conference.”
