Our company manufacturer homeware products, such as pressure cookers, air fryers, tableware and storage. I am the Brand Marketing Manager for our tableware brand.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Valiant Design, and what were your goals?

We were relaunching our tableware brand in the EMEA market and needed a digital campaign that spanned 5 months to introduce the relatively unknown brand to a new audience.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We briefed three different agencies and asked them to pitch for us. We chose Valiant because their initial ideas fit the brief and they clearly laid out how the campaign would work across each month.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and marking tools used.

We had a kick off meeting where we fed back on the concepts from the pitch. Valiant then went away and fleshed out the campaign to into a fully developed idea and we fed back with tweaks and suggestions. We were involved in the creation of the assets and then they edited them and delivered them according to the schedule.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked with the accounts director, the creative director and an accounts executive.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

We haven't launched the campaign yet but we are extremely happy with all of the assets that were delivered.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

We had teams meetings when we needed them and they emailed regularly with updates. They were also very quick to respond to any questions.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

They really understood our brand and how to address the challenges in the market. They responded quickly, were easy to work with, and their deliverables were of high quality.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

No, everything was great.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the co-founder and Chief Product Officer of an investment backed b2b start up, that offers predictive analytics as a service to clients in the retail and hospitality space.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Valiant Design, and what were your goals?

As a start up we knew we needed a compelling and engaging brand that not only reflected our values and culture, but also resonated with our perspective clients. Therefore we engaged Valiant to design a brand and positioning from ground zero.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We used a combination of clutch and other online sources to build up a long list of potential branding partners. After an initial conversation with the prospects, we narrowed it down to a short list of two. During the final stage of selection we were blown away with Valiants energy, their ability to clearly demonstrate how they deliver value, and their cultural alignment to us. The team were engaging throughout the selection process, and once we met Tina, there was no doubt in our minds the only branding partner for us was Valiant.

Describe the scope of their work in detail, including any steps and the final deliverables.

To start the process Valiant hosted us at their quirky and welcoming office , located on an ex dairy farm in Surrey. The day was spent in an extremely useful workshop, where the team used their personalities, skill, and a floor to ceiling whiteboard to tease out of us our deepest, darkest dreams for the company, who we are, how we need to be perceived, who we want to do business with, what we value and much, much more.

This is done in a way that not only gives Valiant what they need to start work on a positioning and branding that reflects who you are, it also, importantly left us with a better understanding of our own business and the direction we wanted to take it.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked directly with: Tina, the founder and strategic director Adam, the aptly named creative director Clare, the ever patient client service director

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The result of the work produced by Valiant is a branding and positioning that feels like an extension of ourselves. From logo to USP, all deliverables have been well thought through, competently designed and fully aligned to our core culture and values. The team have managed to do what many thought was impossible, and that is humanise a tech company 😁

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Valiants communication style is engaging and personable whether it be an email, a whats app, a zoom call, or a drink over lunch. They are excellent at keeping us well informed on progress of the deliverables. If i had to sum their style up, it would be - Extremely Approachable, highly capable and super efficient. All of the deliverables were on time, or earlier than anticipated

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their genuine desire to understand who we are and what we do, so that they can deliver us the best possible outcome was what set Valiant apart. The excitement and energy they brought to every conversation made us feel boosted after each engagement. Valiant Design built partnerships. It felt like they were a part of us and, therefore, would succeed when we succeed.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

There are honestly none that i can think of, the process from start to finish has been a joy

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the school services manager for an education sector consultancy and traded services organization for schools and academy trusts.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Valiant Design?

We were trying to increase our visibility within the education consultancy sector and raise the profile of our traded service activity.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Valiant Design has provided us with branding services and brand repositioning and has rolled out the new designs across several assets. We had a number of meetings to scope the project and get a greater understanding of the engagement. From there, they worked closely with us on the various deliverables as we went through the repositioning process. The team reimagined our logo and identity, including our branding guidelines. 

They’ve also developed our main website, an online platform allowing our customers to access and purchase our services, including consultancy, training, provision, and other services to the education sector. Currently, Valiant Design’s deliverables range from email marketing to digital marketing strategy. This can include marketing brochures and conference materials. 

What is the team composition?

We work with four members of the Valiant Design team, including the director and junior account executive.

How did you come to work with Valiant Design?

They were a historic contact; we had an existing relationship with them but hadn’t used them before in this capacity. We looked at various providers, searching for someone local that understood our context and had a presence within their own industry. Other criteria included a vendor with positive feedback and awards that had worked with the third sector. Since we’re a charity, we needed a partner who understood how we work. Valiant Design ticked all the boxes for us, so we met with the director and had an informal discussion of what we could do and the directions we could go.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve spent around £20,000 (approximately $24,000 USD). 

What is the status of this engagement?

Although our initial contact was in 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic arrived, and everything halted. We reengaged them in December 2021, and our partnership is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

At every stage, we give Valiant Design our feedback and user feedback when we have it. So far, the feedback for their work has been extremely positive. Because we’re in the education sector, our customer base is quiet from July–September. We’ll track their response in the autumn when we have enough data for more quantitative feedback.

The team is highly client-supportive; they work with us to understand our needs and respond very quickly to them. Overall, working with Valiant Design has been very enjoyable for my team.

How did Valiant Design perform from a project management standpoint?

They’ve met the project deadlines 100% of the time and have worked with us when we’ve had to change some of the timelines. We use a project schedule we’ve created. Even though we’ve worked online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we’ve never felt unsupported. We communicate via phone calls, emails, and Zoom. 

They’re very strong in terms of delivering what they promise. Their proposal was very clear, outlining how they would work with us, and they’ve followed that. Moreover, they can modulate that proposal if we have to change timelines, and they still deliver on time. For example, we had requests for some deliverables we hadn’t anticipated mid-project, and they turned those around very quickly. 

What did you find most impressive about them?

I’m impressed with Valiant Design’s client engagement. They talk to us and have a good capacity to listen. The team takes all we say on board and then come to us with their creative input, leading a collaborative process. Their main strength is their capacity to listen and reinterpret our position. Overall, they’re an empowering agency — they empower and provide creative solutions for us.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of anything they need to do differently. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Think about what you want before you approach Valiant Design. This way, you can give them an idea of where you want to be and what you want to do. That information will equip them with the ability to focus. For them to perform beyond your expectations, they need to know what you need as early as possible. If you find it difficult to articulate, they’ll help you, asking many questions to encapsulate the key elements of what you need; the more information you can bring, the better. 

Sometimes, as a client, you can’t see the woods for the trees, and Valiant Design can find a pathway for you to see more clearly. They’ll challenge your thinking, helping you to think outside the box, so you should be prepared to reimagine yourself. They’re extremely good at client management and excel at keeping you on track and refocusing.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the managing director at COAN Food, a food wholesaler specializing in premium meat snacks.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Valiant Design?

We needed a company that could develop a sales platform for us and help us increase our brand awareness by having a coordinated, quality social media presence

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

We started the engagement by coming up with a marketing strategy. Valiant Design provided us with a roadmap of what they recommend we should be doing in terms of conventional and digital marketing.

We took a phased approach — Valiant Design initially developed a Shopify e-commerce website for us before conducting competitive research and helping us refresh our brand messaging. We then worked on a number of sub-projects, including refreshing our media resources and packaging. They also engaged a content writer to come up with original content for our website.

What is the team composition?

We worked with 3–4 people from Valiant Design.

How did you come to work with Valiant Design?

We found Valiant Design through a recommendation. They stood out to us because they understood what I was trying to do and because they had experience working with similar brands.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around £25,000 (Approximately $31,000 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked on this project from August 2021–February 2022. We’ve finished the first phase of the project, and we’re planning on reaching out to them again once we get more funds to continue with the second phase.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

In terms of quantitative metrics, it’s too early to tell. But we’ve received positive feedback from our target audiences in terms of our brand. We’re still the same company — we still sell the same product, but people do feel like we have a bigger presence than before. Overall, we’re incredibly happy with the results of this project.

How did Valiant Design perform from a project management standpoint?

Valiant Design performed really well in terms of project management. They stayed on track and ensured a smooth workflow throughout the project. They were also local to us. It wasn’t a prerequisite, but it was a real bonus that we could just pop in and see them whenever we needed to.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Valiant Design understood the route to market and the potential business disposals and how they could help us grow.

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, I have no complaints.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

It would be a good idea to work as closely with them as possible to ensure the project’s on-time delivery.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

We are a search marketing agency and I am the Managing Director.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Valiant Design, and what were your goals?

Brand refresh with supporting marketing collateral

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

After meeting the team at Valiant, we spent some time talking through our challenges. The initial feedback, passion and clarity we were given gave us the confidence to really push on with elevating the business to the next level.

Describe the scope of their work in detail, including any steps and the final deliverables.

Our business had grown and our brand no longer reflected who we were and who we wanted to be. Valiant took the time to bring to life their approach, understand our business and then undertake a massive research project. From this came a suite of designs that we iterated on and got a brand look and feel that will help us on the next stage of our growth.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

Three, the owner, a branding specialist and a project / account manager

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

We have a brand which will stand alone in our marketplace and position us well to attract the customers we really seek.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

Project management was excellent, everything was on point and managed perfectly

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Each of the team members we spoke to was empathetic. They each had their own gift that they brought to the project : from enthusiasm, to astute insight to provoking some soul searching as well as listening to our thoughts.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

Hard to think about things that could have been done better, the project was undertaken during the 2021 pandemic and everything was handled superbly.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the co-founder of Great Glen Distillery. We are a craft distillery based in the highlands of Scotland and we're predominantly producing gin at the moment.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Valiant Design?

We hired Valiant Design to do our branding, logo and packaging design, and website.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

At the start of the engagement, I did a short presentation to showcase the nature of our business and what kind of product packaging we wanted. Valiant Design’s managing director had already been to our part of Scotland, so she understood geographically the potential of our distillery. I provided them with a little brief and we brainstormed for ideas.

Valiant Design then came up with five different concepts for our logo and bottle design. They explained the reasoning behind each concept and why they believed it would suit our company. My business partner and I chose one that coincidentally was the same one their team preferred, and from there, they went on to build our branding.

After looking into different manufacturers, the team sourced the bottles and the paper for the labels. They managed everything so that we could focus on producing gin and getting customers. Valiant Design created the POS leaflets that go along with the gin as well.

Apart from that, Valiant Design also put together a bespoke Shopify website for us. They conducted market research to see what theme was best to go with and took note of what information we needed to present on the platform. They then came up with all of the imagery and managed the copyrighting for everything that they had produced for us. 

We’re now in the process of creating Christmas gift boxes that would contain two glasses and two bottles of our gin. Valiant Design has already finished the photoshoot and uploaded the product pictures onto our e-commerce website.

What is the team composition?

I had the initial calls with Tina (Founder & Director) to strike up a deal for the engagement. She went on to manage the project and liaise with the different suppliers. Adam (Creative Director) and Anneli (Account Director) joined her in coming up with ideas as well. 

How did you come to work with Valiant Design?

I found them through 99designs. I chose them out of all the other designers because I just fell in love with their gin bottle design. When I gave them a call, they were really helpful and engaged in the project. Their quote shocked me initially, but we arrived at a deal that suited us both. 

How much have you invested with them?

We pay a monthly retainer fee. At this point, we’ve paid up to £15,000 (approximately $20,000 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We started the project in September 2020 and it is still ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

We’re talking to businesses all the time and people say that they love the design of our bottles. It comes across as simple and elegant, and customers buy our products not just for the taste but for the amazing design as well.

The website itself is also very simple and gives an overview of all the essential information about our business and our products. Valiant Design has taken a huge weight off our shoulders since they’ve provided a turnkey solution and saved us from having to outsource the website work to a different company.

How did Valiant Design perform from a project management standpoint?

Valiant Design is outstanding on this front. Whenever we need something, they get back to us straight away and inform us when they can provide us with a solution. They’re really good in terms of communicating and giving us realistic timeframes. 

We generally correspond through email and phone calls, but they conduct some presentations over Microsoft Teams. It's amazing how, even though we've never met them personally due to COVID-19 restrictions, we feel that we know them intimately. They’re like a part of our business already.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They genuinely want our products to do well in the market and put a lot of care into their designs. They’re very upfront, transparent, honest, and realistic. It doesn’t feel like a customer-supplier relationship; what we have is really more of a partnership. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

There’s nothing that they can improve on, to be honest. They’re a very well-rounded, professional company.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Be sure to communicate and work with Valiant Design. Some people may be put off by how honest and abrupt they are, but allow yourself to see the bigger picture and share their vision.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the Marketing Director of a software company that provides low-bandwidth streaming and AI-driven video analytics to businesses in over 50 countries.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Valiant Design, and what were your goals?

We hired Valiant Design to help build the brand identity for a new product and start-up business. Our goal was to develop a brand with real purpose; one that represents the product and people behind it, whilst creatively articulating our point of differentiation.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We found 5 vendors online and spoke with them in each in great detail. We also reviewed their body of work to help manage expectations. Price was an important factor but more importantly it was about finding a vendor that understood the product, business direction and heavily focussed on building a strong and distinctive brand.

Describe the scope of their work in detail, including any steps and the final deliverables.

To start they met with, and interviewed key members of the team through various workshops to help identify our business objectives, values, expertise, audiences, target market, differentiators and competitors/brands that inspire us. Deliverables at the end of the discovery and design phases include branding guidelines and assets such as the logo in various fonts, colour palette, use of imagery and style, tone of voice and key messaging.

How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I had interactions with most members of the team from the owner right through to the Digital and Creative Directors. On a day-to-day basis I worked closely with a dedicated Account Director who really immersed herself in the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Valiant Design have helped create a vibrant, bold and fearless brand. As a start-up business this has really helped jump start our engagements with customers as well as leading integrators and world renowned business to help build long term global partnerships.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We put in place weekly meetings via Zoom as well as regular and consistent communication over email and telephone. We also used a range of collaboration tools such as Asana and InVision to help bring some of the more visual elements to life.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their commitment to learning and understanding the business is impressive. But also the ongoing support for me as the only Marketing person within the business exceeded my expectations. The team at Valiant Design have now become extended members of the Marketing function and a vital resource I can really rely on.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

N/A

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner of Yotes Court, a 70-acre vineyard where we grow about 300 tons of grapes for winemaking.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Valiant Design?

We needed to develop our brand and create labels for our product line, so I hired Valiant Design.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Valiant Design worked on creating our branding and brand positioning. We have four different wines for which their team designed the labels. They also created our logo and several other brand assets such as our business cards, menus, technical sheets for the wines, and marketing collateral.

Valiant Design also did some work on our website’s frontend, guiding our developers to ensure that all elements were on-brand.

What is the team composition?

I worked with Tina (Founder & Director) who was the project manager and one of their principal designers.

How did you come to work with Valiant Design?

My web developer recommended Valiant Design, so we talked to them along with two other agencies. I felt that I clicked best with Valiant Design and I liked how they presented themselves. They were very keen on getting to know our business, so we hired them.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around £20,000 (approximately $28,000 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We started working together in November 2020, and the partnership is ongoing.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement?

There aren’t any metrics that I can point to but in general, the branding is very good and has received positive feedback. Valiant Design’s work has delivered on everything that I wanted. Sales have been good and people have commented on how lovely the labels are. Overall, I’m really pleased with the results.

How did Valiant Design perform from a project management standpoint?

Valiant Design’s project management was exceptional. They’re very organized and clear on what the deliverables are going to be. They used a timetable for the work and delivered according to it. We mainly communicated through Zoom and email.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Valiant Design is attentive, creative, and organized. They tell you what they’re going to deliver and they deliver it.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t think of anything. I was pleased with their whole service.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Definitely go with Valiant Design. They listen carefully to what you want and take the time to go through the creative process. They deliver what they promised, when they promised it. The ideas that they generate are all good, and anybody that engages them for a branding or design project will not be disappointed.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the strategic sales and marketing director for a technology solution provider called Box Technologies. We provide technology solutions in the retail, hospitality, gaming, and medical markets for some of the world’s largest brands.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Valiant Design?

We had a couple of strategic business objectives to address with Valiant Design. The first was that we were looking to position ourselves into new growth target markets and needed marketing campaigns and activities to support that venture. We were also going through a rebrand of our company to support the positioning of our business in the marketplace. Valiant helped with both those efforts.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Valiant Design completely overhauled our brand. We presented what our challenges were, what we wanted, and what we didn’t want. Since we’re a 30-year established business, we didn’t want to totally change our name and image. Valiant updated our logo and delivered new brand guidelines, including a new color scheme and all. We provided some of our market research at the outset. 

This week, we’re launching the total rebrand, and it will utilize all of our social channels, including campaign landing pages. As part of the rebrand, we’re also relaunching our website, which Valiant created for us. This will serve as the foundation that allows us to do a lot of outbound and inbound marketing for the rest of 2021 to drive our business objectives.

The social platforms that we’re leveraging for our rebrand include LinkedIn, Twitter, and Vimeo. Some of those were recommended by Valiant. We have a very strong following on LinkedIn — it’s our most successful business platform.

Valiant has also helped us craft a new website in a 50–50 collaboration. We know our business better than anyone, but they’ve supported us with their experience in new, emerging marketplaces. The website needs to be internationally supported because we have offices in the Nordic region and the UK, and we also needed an easy-to-use CMS, as we’re going to take over its day-to-day management. Additionally, we had to be able to create designated campaign landing pages to support future marketing activities. We also want it to be content-rich and concise. 

Valiant has come up with the concepts for the website, and we went through a refinement process to reach a design that we were ultimately happy with. Valiant is responsible for a lot of the site’s creative elements, and they’ve looked at the different marketplaces we’ve targeted before. This has produced a lot of marketing assets that we can leverage. 

The website is built on WordPress, and this is actually our second website refresh with Valiant Design. We used WordPress before too. 

What is the team composition?

We’ve been working with 3–5 people on this particular project, including an account manager and other resources in charge of graphic design, SEO, and web development. The account manager has run the project day to day, from initial scoping through to delivery.

How did you come to work with Valiant Design?

I’ve worked with them personally for over 10 years. Originally, they were recommended to us when we first engaged with them. 

We have a long-standing partnership, a testament to what they’ve delivered for us over the years. They continue to evolve and make sure that they’re at the forefront of agency engagement.

How much have you invested with them?

We’ve probably spent over £85,000 (approximately $100,000 USD). 

What is the status of this engagement?

This project kicked off in January 2021. Valiant did the rebrand from scratch. It’s been a five-month project from start to finish, and phase one is 95% complete and ready for launch. Phase two will launch in August

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

Our objectives as a business over the next 12–36 months include going into new and diverse markets, and Valiant Design has 100% hit the brief in helping position us outside of our traditional marketplaces. 

Another point that Valiant Design has 100% delivered on is that we’re now positioned as a true technology solution provider, whereas previously we seemed more like a hardware and services provider.

Everyone here at Box, including the board — who signed off on Valiant’s work — wholeheartedly believes in the work they’ve done and that it will help us deliver on our key business objectives.

How did Valiant Design perform from a project management standpoint?

We’ve collaborated very closely, which is something I requested from them. I think these projects are best delivered when the agency and the business work in perfect harmony, and I can’t question how Valiant has performed from a project management point of view.

We’ve been lucky enough to have face-to-face meetings in recent weeks, which have been very beneficial. We also use WhatsApp and Zoom and many other forms of communication to ensure that tasks are delivered on time and within budget.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Valiant’s can-do and collaborative approach to the partnership stands out. The reason we continue to work with Valiant is that their people care about our business and about supporting us in reaching our objectives. It’s a true partnership, rather than being a supplier-vendor interaction. They go the extra mile for us.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I can’t ask any more of them as a partner, so it’s quite hard to say exactly what they could do better. They’ve taken us on a journey and provided the tools that we need to bring our vision to life. 

Their account and budget management have been very strong, as well as their creative work. We’ve worked with them for so long that all possible pain points were ironed out early on. 

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

To get the best out of Valiant Design’s team, you need to enter the relationship very open and willing to collaborate with them as a partner, rather than just as a supplier. Their managing director works very closely with the team and is very involved and active with the accounts they take on.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I am the CEO of Cultura Group, a landscape conduction group based in the UK. We are responsible for commercial landscape construction around new buildings and parks.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Valiant Design?

We were looking to rename our business. Our company had been in existence for 26 years and wanted to refresh our name and branding.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Valiant Design provided branding and naming services for us. They were tasked with running a number of workshops with our senior management team to get to know our business.

The team understood what we were trying to achieve in terms of reputation, growth, and market sector. From there, they came up with suggestions for names, logos, and designs, which we iterated on until coming to a conclusion.

What is the team composition?

Our main point of contact was Tina (Strategy Director), but we also worked with four other members of the team, three designers and one individual who worked on the finance side of things. 

How did you come to work with Valiant Design?

We received a referral for Valiant Design from someone we had worked with in the past. We looked at a number of design agencies, but they were by far the best. They clearly took a personal approach. It was clear from their proposal that Tina had done her homework on us, which made a huge difference. 

How much have you invested with them?

We invested about £20,000 (approximately $28,000).

What is the status of this engagement?

Our engagement ran from November 2019–April 2020.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What evidence can you share that demonstrates the impact of the engagement? 

We were very happy with the initial outcome. It was key that we were able to sell the new name and branding to our staff, which was easy since Valiant Design did such a good job. We received an incredibly positive response from our customers and the rest of the industry. We believe the change helped us win more business.

How did Valiant Design perform from a project management standpoint?

Valiant Design’s team is very professional and lovely to deal with. They always made sure we met deadlines and guided us through the process. They are a very good team to work with.

What did you find most impressive about them?

They take a real ownership over the project. It was like they were working on branding for their own business. They cared about getting things right for us. 

Are there any areas they could improve?

No, they do all the right things. I’m completely satisfied.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Engage with them at a personal level. That’s the best way to utilize their talents and capabilities.
