An independent creative practice
We work in a number of industries, partnering with ambitious businesses to breathe new life into their brands — then we support their journey to the top. This approach makes us different to the traditional design agency, allowing us to build demonstrably improved businesses that are creatively unique, strategically sound and leaders in their field. To offer the best return on investment, we focus on five areas we believe have the biggest impact on a growing business. These are brand strategy, brand identity, print design, digital design and content creation.

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am a company director for a premium jewellery business, we specialise in the design and manufacture of bespoke, hand-crafted jewellery.
For what projects/services did your company hire LBD Studio?
LBD has been working with us to create a new website. We want it to reflect the ethos of our family business, so we need to work with someone who really understands what we offer and can translate this into the look and design, so that our customers are able to find all the information they need, as well as get a feel for our values and our expertise.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
LBD has excellent credentials, they take the time to listen and working with Liam is a pleasure, he's very good at what he does.
Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.
The project is still ongoing, but the process so far has been very easy. LBD has guided us at every stage, we can't wait to see the end result.
How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
Our main contact at LBD is Liam.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
Too early to say, other than the brand and visuals we've seen so far look great.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
No issues here, it's been very efficient. The only delays to the project have been due to us providing content and photography for the team to work with. But again LBD have been very patient and understanding with this.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The initiative LBD has shown in leading where needed. They are able to take a small idea into new options and ways of delivering effective solutions.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Not at all.

CIK Accounting Solutions is an award winning accountancy practice offering compliance and growth strategies for small and medium sized businesses.
For what projects/services did your company hire LBD Studio, and what were your goals?
We were in desperate need of a complete revamp of our existing website that was outdated and did not convey the message of why we exist and what we offer.
How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?
We looked at a couple of potential providers but chose LBD Studio as we felt they had grasped a quick understanding of our problem.
Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.
We had an initial exploratory meeting and were then guided through the process every step of the way with regular follow up progress meetings.
How many people from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?
We worked solely with Liam.
Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?
Since launch we have seen a steady improvement in our rankings on Google.
Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.
Regular progress meetings were arranged at every step along the way with action points reinforced when an input was required by ourselves.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
I loved the fantastic end result. Our website was second to none in terms of its look and professionalism.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
Our only regret is not having done this sooner!

Please describe your company and your position there.
I am the founding owner of a boutique candle brand.
For what projects/services did your company hire LBD Studio?
We required help to position our business, identifying a gap in the market that we could credibly claim. LBD Studio then designed our brand identity and guidelines to help us connect with customers.
How did you select LBD Studio and what were the deciding factors?
A direct referral from a trusted source.
Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.
LBD Studio guided us through the process from initial discovery to brand design and launch. The process was simple, enjoyable and easy to follow. Communication was clear at all stages and the outcome was superb.
How many resources from the LBD Studio team worked with you, and what were their positions?
In total we worked with three people, the senior consulting team and web development.
Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?
The programme of work was hugely beneficial to our company. Audience retention has been strong since launch and continues to grow.
How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?
The workflow was seamless, and assets were always on time, and to a level we were very happy with.
What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?
The most impressive thing about LBD Studio is their ability to turn around work quickly and to the standard of much larger brand agencies. In our experience, the value for money far surpasses other studios and we have complete confidence that their work will be effective and memorable.
Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?
There is nothing I can think of that I would change about LBD Studio and I would happily recommend them to anyone looking to develop their business.
It is too early for any metrics, but LBD Studio has delivered some excellent visuals. They’ve been efficient and timely in providing content and photography. Overall, the team has demonstrated a high level of patience, understanding, and initiative, leading the project in the right direction.
