Digital Ego

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the owner and founder of a European restaurant.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Digital Ego?

I needed to create a full rebranding for my restaurant to reflect its new vibe and direction.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Digital Ego handled everything from brand strategy and naming to logo design, color palette, social media templates, and a complete website. The branding covered every detail, from sugar packets and takeaway packaging to staff uniforms.

What is the team composition?

We worked with 5–6 teammates from Digital Ego, including a brand strategist, designer, project manager, and web developer.

How did you come to work with Digital Ego?

I found Digital Ego through a referral from a friend who had worked with them before and recommended their services. I chose them because I immediately liked the owner’s mindset and approach — calm, clear, and professional. Plus, their previous branding work really stood out to me in both style and meaning.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent around $22,000 on this project.

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from October 2024–January 2025.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

After launching the new brand and website, we saw a clear increase in customer interest, more engagement on social media, and great feedback on the overall look and feel of the restaurant. We noticed more social media engagement, saves, shares, and new followers. Also, more people started taking photos in the restaurant and tagging us, which wasn’t happening as often before the rebranding.

One guest said, “It feels like everything here is thought out, from the logo on the menu to the colors and atmosphere. It’s modern but cozy, and you can feel the personality behind it.” We’ve also heard a lot of comments like “Wow, this place looks amazing now” and “Did you guys just reopen? It feels totally fresh.”

Moreover, the website Digital Ego delivered blew me away. It perfectly captured the atmosphere I wanted and looked stunning. The logo stood out right away — minimal, stylish, and full of character. I also really liked the social media templates — they made the brand feel alive and consistent across all platforms. Even the smallest elements, like the icons and typography, felt thoughtful and on point. Most importantly, they fully respected my vision for a minimalist and modern aesthetic — and nailed it.

Overall, I’m genuinely happy every time I look at my new brand. It finally feels like “me.”

How did Digital Ego perform from a project management standpoint?

Digital Ego’s project management was solid. They were organized, kept me updated at every stage, and respected deadlines. Everything was delivered on time. Even when I made changes, they adapted quickly and professionally. We mostly communicated through Google Meet and Telegram, which worked great for feedback and coordination.

What did you find most impressive about them?

What impressed me most was how deeply they got into my vision. It didn’t feel like just another project for them — they really cared, asked the right questions, and brought creative ideas that felt personal and on-brand. It felt like working with a partner, not just a service provider.

Are there any areas they could improve?

I have no complaints. Everything went smoothly and professionally.

2-5 Employees

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Digital Ego handled the full design and development of my eCommerce website, built to showcase and sell my original artworks worldwide.

They started with a branding and content audit, then created a custom website structure, clean visual layout, and an easy-to-use shop system. They connected secure payment gateways, set up shipping options, and made sure everything worked smoothly on mobile and desktop.

Key deliverables included:
– Full website design and development
– Product catalog setup with variations and pricing
– Mobile optimization and speed improvements
– SEO setup (titles, metadata, indexing tools)
– Email marketing tools with automated flows
– Website launch support and performance monitoring
– Guidance on using the site independently

The goal was to start selling from day one — and that’s exactly what happened.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Since the launch, I’ve been selling artworks straight from the website, which was my main goal. Everything works smoothly — no bugs, no confusion for buyers. People stay on the site longer and actually explore the pages, probably because it’s easy to use and looks good on phones too. The email system they set up brings people back without me having to do much. And thanks to the SEO setup, I’m slowly getting more visitors from search. The best part is, I can manage everything myself now.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Project management was smooth and clear from the start. Vadim broke everything down into steps, explained what was happening, and always kept me in the loop. Whenever I had questions or needed something adjusted, he and his team responded quickly and found solutions that made sense. Everything was delivered on time, and I felt supported throughout the whole process.
For the amount of care, strategy, and design that went into it, the price was more than fair. It’s already bringing in real sales, so it paid off quickly.

What was your primary form of communication with Digital Ego?

In-Person Meeting

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

What impressed me most was how much thought they put into every part of the process. It didn’t feel like I was just getting a website — it felt like someone truly cared about my art, my story, and how it would live online. They asked the right questions, listened closely, and made sure the site didn’t just function — it actually felt like me. The layout, the flow, even the way the artworks are shown — it all has a quiet confidence to it that fits my style.

I’ve worked with people before who just “do the job,” but here I felt like my work was treated with real respect and attention. That made a huge difference.
They combine design, tech, and strategy in a way that’s rare — and they really care about your work. I felt supported, understood, and respected through every step. It wasn’t just a service — it was a real collaboration, and the result is something I’m proud to share.

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

Honestly, I was really happy with how everything went. If I had to name something, maybe just having a short guide or video after launch showing how to update the shop or check stats — even though they explained everything clearly, it would be nice to have something I can refer back to. But overall, nothing major. The whole process felt thoughtful and well done.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Message acknowledgment up 25 % (log analysis)

Staff report smoother daily use after the new UI launch

How did Digital Ego perform from a project management standpoint?

Clear milestones, quick replies, no missed dates. They handled all work inside our secure environment and needed minimal hand-holding.

To be frank, reading some reviews, we initially had concerns that a project of this complexity and with our specific demands might extend beyond the expected timeframe. However, in our line of work, perfectionism isn’t just desired; it’s a critical requirement for every detail and every integration point. They consistently delivered all three key checkpoints of the project precisely on schedule and fully deployed, even when unforeseen internal complexities arose. Digital Ego's ability to scope accurately and execute efficiently under such demanding conditions was commendable.

What did you find most impressive or unique about them?

They grasped our privacy rules right away and built tools that respect them. Few vendors adapt that fast.

Are there any areas they could improve?

The first week of defining edge-case data-transfer rules took extra calls. Once aligned, work flowed without friction.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Digital Ego?

We were rebranding our previous jewelry brand and hired Vadim to help us create a logo for the new brand.

SOLUTION

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

I know his clients personally and I was inspired by the work that Vadim made for them, so I knew he was a great fit for our project since the very beginning.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

First, Vadim offered us 7 different concepts of the logotype. It was hard to choose because every variant was made according to what we asked for. Second, we started to modify and finalize the logotype. It was made with a special brush that was later digitalized and became a logotype. A the final stage, we have received the logo-book.

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

In total, we worked in 3 people, me my partner and Vadim. Vadim was designing and doing the research about branding. Me and my partner were sharing company resources that would have helped Vadim to finalize the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

We have received the best result! The logotype turned out just as we wanted and even better.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

It was easy to communicate with Vadim during the project. We had planned meetings and phone calls.

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

The most impressive was their ability to hear and understand what the client really wanted and to communicate this trait through their work effectively.

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

Things could always be done faster, but the quality goes at the first place.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm CMO of nemo.ai the team behind Visely. Visely is a Personalization & Search Service for E-Commerce platforms.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Digital Ego, and what were your goals?

Our business has achieved a level at which our brand image, messaging and value communication resulting from that image has become inadequate for our needs. We've hired Digital Ego to help us transition our brand image to a more professional and coherent entity.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor?

We've reached out to our network for referrals. After analyzing reviews, ratings, examples of previous work and after having conversations with candidates, we've selected Digital Ego as their overall value proposition was optimal for our needs on this endeavor.

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

Digital Ego and project key stakeholders have had extensive discovery sessions to understand our business, value proposition, market position and operational excellence. Once the general direction has been firmly established and Digital Ego had a deep understanding of our brand and values additional more focused sessions have been held, and with stakeholders participation along the entire project, Digital Ego created an entire brand package for us. This included a new logo, brand book, style guides, and marketing materials. Their team also has completely rebuilt our website according to the new brand proposition.

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

We've worked with two members of the Digital Ego, their principal UX designer and their web developer.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

As the result of Digital Ego work on the Visely branding project we as a business have coalesced our business values, vision, market position and value offer into a unique, cohesive, flexible and resilient brand image. Customers and partners perceive our new logo and branding materials positively, so we're happy with the final outcome of Digital Ego efforts.

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

We had regular meetings with Digital Ego to go over progress and the next steps. Digital Ego was diligent in the process of demoing progress, at every step of the project. Additionally, we communicated over designated real-time chat platforms regularly for the quick turnaround on various queries. Expected timelines were generally met by Digital Ego.

They assumed the role of a trusted advisor and were happy to guide us through the process to achieve the best result together and not just blindly follow the requirements set forth by our stakeholders. While this meant that the timelines of the project have somewhat slipped, the end result has greatly benefitted from a slight delay.

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

Digital Ego creativity is truly impressive, they were able to give us fully thought and coherent design options throughout the entire project. Additionally the attention to detail our project received from Digital Ego was second to none. It's clear that Digital Ego team consists of real craftsmen.

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

Whilst our team has appreciated the dedication and attention to detail we've received from Digital Ego and were more than happy to extend our initial timelines, other customers moght not be so inclined.

BACKGROUND

Introduce your business and what you do there.

I’m the team leader of COMMWITHUS.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

What challenge were you trying to address with Digital Ego One?

We have an EU funded project for strategic communication and support to mass media in the Republic of Moldova, which is made up of multiple components. For the first part, we needed to create a visual that would symbolize the key narrative message of the EU’s communication to Moldova.

SOLUTION

What was the scope of their involvement?

Digital Ego One designed a visual that could be developed into a full-fledged visual identity for the communication to illustrate the communication approach of the EU in Moldova. This included graphic design, creating the logo, making proposals for the application of the logo on a series of promotional and running items, and providing the technical means to make the application possible.

They provided the layouts and files for the application of the logo on a number of branding and promotional materials, including a minibus.

How did you come to work with Digital Ego One?

We published an open call for companies to provide design services for the visuals of the campaign. We had a panel for the evaluation of the proposals, which included experts from our team. A number of companies responded, but we ultimately decided to go with Digital Ego One because they best illustrated the key narrative that we were looking for.

How much have you invested with them?

We spent about €20,000–€30,000 (approximately $21,800–$32,800 USD).

What is the status of this engagement?

We worked together from January–September 2019.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

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

Their timeliness allowed for success after the approval from the EU. Since the EU delegation took some time, we were left with just a few days after the approval to produce additional materials that were added to the initial list. We were successful in just three days from approval. We had the complete set of layouts for all the branding and promotional items done, approved, and produced in time.

How did Digital Ego One perform from a project management standpoint?

I only have excellent things to say about the way they managed this task. It was an incredible performance in a very short time. They dedicated themselves completely to this project not only when they prepared the proposal, but also during the crucial period when everything was done, plus minor adjustments requested by the client. Throughout this process, their attention to detail, responsiveness, and flexibility was at the highest possible standard.

What did you find most impressive about them?

Though it was a complex task, Digital Ego One prepared a complete graphic proposal for branding a minibus and received the approval of the delegation in only half a day. It took them a quarter of the day to prepare everything for proper production, which was amazing. We ended up spending three nights online communicating, exchanging opinions, and making adjustments. I remember working through the night with them––it was outstanding.

Are there any areas they could improve?

Nothing comes to mind.

Do you have any advice for potential customers?

Any future client should be as clear and specific as possible from the beginning. Their team is creative, highly intelligent, and are quick to understand.
