Client Testimonials

“Josh helped us with our hosted WordPress solution, implementing a new blog in each of three languages. Josh did a beautiful job with the design, and was able to complete the project within our limited time frame. He was a pleasure to work with; we especially appreciated his quick responses to emails, and willingness to nail the details on a somewhat challenging feed import!”

“Josh did a fantastic job as designer for BHS's new digital exhibit about the Lefferts family papers. Thanks to his vision, hard work, and creativity, we now have an elegant and usable site to feature our beautiful archival materials and to tell the story of one Brooklyn family's history. I could not have imagined a better outcome. Not only is Josh a remarkably talented designer, he is also a pleasure to work with - responsive, pleasant, and patient. I hope we can work together again!”

“Josh is a pleasure to work with. He is an excellent communicator -- patient and eager to problem solve and exceed expectations. He made sound recommendations for an overall design refresh and building a clean shopping cart.

“Josh Shayne is a truly talented artist and a delight to work with. We commissioned Josh to create a poster for promoting live music nights at our historic hotel. I explained my vision to him, and he brought it to life in the brief time frame that he promised, with a clever eye-catching design that is helping us tremendously to create brand identified marketing for our events. I look forward to hiring Josh again and again for some new ideas I have in the works, and I highly recommend his services. He is a super creative artist and also a very fine business man.”

“Josh is amazing. Not only did he re-design our entire site to make it more interactive and fluid; he also built a beautiful, flexible, simple-to-manage online store for us under a time crunch during our busy season. Ever-helpful, patient, and willing to explain and re-explain, Josh worked closely with us to get just the right look and feel for everything, and it was all done in a matter of weeks. Anyone looking for design and/or website help would do well to contact him.”

“Josh made customizing our new website and online store “easy!” I highly recommend Josh and am eager to find another reason to work with him again… Josh created a custom Magento Commerce + WordPress installation for us which represents what we wanted in terms of shopping cart + content control features.

My top reasons for recommending Josh: a) excellent communication – from contract to deliverables to timeline and issue management, Josh is very clear with respect to setting goals, costs and expectations b) patience – Josh was extremely patient and understanding throughout the process and c) time and money – Josh delivered the site and any changes in a timely manner, always keeping me updated as needed; and his charges are very reasonable and truly worth it. I am sure anyone will have great success in realizing their vision with Josh Shayne. ”

“Josh impressed me so much with his dedication to making our website not only professional but also organized as we have a lot of information! His organizational skills made all this information easily accessible so our clients never feel overwhelmed. This has increased site use and made us a resource for our clients to turn to, to find just what they need, when they need it.

It was complicated and confusing for us and Josh took the project and made it all look so easy! He has been maintaining our site for a few years now and is always helping us update our look, our speed and trouble shoots for us promptly when we need him. I’m relieved because this vital part of our business can be a nightmare if not handled competently, and thrilled because with Josh, it always goes smoothly. I recommend him highly.”

“Working with Josh was a wonderful experience. I was pretty anxious about creating a website for my business. With his consistently responsive and efficient communication, as well as his patience and flexibility, he made an unfamiliar and overwhelming process attainable for me. Additionally, he was extremely prompt with his deliverables in that he got them to me early! Above all, with Josh’s excellent graphic and website design skills, he was able to put my vision into reality. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Josh!”

“Thanks again for your wonderful work. You listened to all my requests and were ultra responsive in dealing with details and meeting our deadline. I will definitely recommend you. And you can use that testimonial ; )”

“Josh did an absolutely wonderful job. His design was exactly what I was looking for, his work timely, his prices fair, and above all, he was such a pleasure to work with. He was patient, explained and discussed everything thoroughly, answered any and all questions I had, and really just went above and beyond in all aspects. I cannot recommend him highly enough."

“Josh Shayne is a consummate professional, and one of the fastest designers I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. Within 24 hours of hiring him to design my blog, he had designed an original insignia (a combo typewriter and piano which perfectly represented my dual interests in music and writing), gotten RSS and Twitter feeds up and running, and taken care of all the back-end stuff so all I had to do was post content. Why would you hire some ridiculously expensive, bloated design company, when Josh can do it all himself: quickly, cheaply, and just the way you ask for it.”

“Josh is in the top bracket of designers. He’s created several websites for me as well as a host of collateral graphics materials — brochures, newsletters, illustrations, video and ads. He’s an all-in-one ad agency, which makes things not just convenient, but cost-effective. Time-effective too, because he understands what you want and what you’re trying to achieve. Josh Shayne has my highest recommendation.”

“Josh is easy to work with and has done an excellent job of interpreting our vision for our web site. He is super accessible and timely whenever we have questions about administrative issues. We have absolute faith and respect for Josh and would hire him again for any design need.”

“I had the good fortune of finding Josh online through some of his previous projects. His style appealed to me so I used the form on his site to contact him. He responded in half day which was the first good sign of how proactive and responsive he was throughout the project.

Josh is professional and efficient. Project dates were always met. His advice is sound and well-researched. If you want something added to your site and he advises it may not be the best idea, definitely listen to him.

Basically, Josh made the process easy and the end result really fabulous. I would recommend him to all small business owners who want their online presence to have a unique look, be highly functional and be easily maintained.”
