Message in a Needle

By Joe Miller | February 20, 2017

A message in a needle. It’s not quite the kind of messaging I’m used to.

Let’s Face Heroin Addiction

“I trust them with my brand. I trust them with my marketing business. They will not steer you wrong. They will ensure everything is on point moving forward.”

"Our client base increased. Our staff base increased. Our reputation and notoriety in the industry increased. The branding has lifted us up to be very confident.”

“We trust them as true professionals who really understand the process that’s required to do things right.”

“They really bring in the heart behind the message. They tell the story in ways that are compelling. They’re really creative and that matters.”

“…we really felt that they understood what we wanted to accomplish. They listened to us instead of puking their process on us.”

“Loved the process – we got so much more than a new logo; helped us unite around a common mission and language.”

“This input helped us work better together as a team. The whole brand refresh process was a wonderful team building opportunity.”

“We never had the production value in terms of the presentation/signage – the quality was new and impressive and people really embraced it.”

“Take the time to let designRoom get to know you. It is amazing that they get to the core of who you are…”

“They became much more like partners deeply embedded inside our business.”
