Testimonials
Feedback from my clients.
Clients are the lifeblood. Each one treasured and respected. Jobs come and go, people and relationships linger, the essence of sustainability….
I started using Mike’s services about 15 years ago, and always enjoy our creative interactions. He has designed numerous poetry book covers for me, and for the projects I work in. He has designed pull-up banners, the pages of children’s books, logos for small businesses I have mentored, and letterheads, as well as web pages. I value good work, and lasting relationships, and I have found both with MaxDesign.
Mike Barwood has completed several Web design and Photo projects for me over the last few years, and I can say with certainty that I would rather work with him than anyone else. He is honest, his fees are fair, his input is always well considered, and he has the skills and experience necessary to consistently deliver excellent service. I recommend him without hesitation.
