Paul was given pieces and parts of information and photographs over several months and he masterfully melded it all into the website that we had envisioned. I appreciated his patience, suggestions, light humor and guidance throughout the entire process. He mastered the project flow wonderfully, hit all of the deadlines and gave soft reminders of what would or should be addressed for upcoming milestones. Staying on time and on budget were very important factors. A pleasure to work with and superbly knowledgeable in his field, I would recommend Paul for your marketing, website and other IT projects.

As a start up company in 2001, PetroSafe contacted The Designsmith to help us with the original design of our website. Not knowing where to start, Paul shared some great ideas with us, and after only a few days ... we were up and running. Paul was extremely easy to work with and he managed to keep our startup costs within our budget. After we were in business for few years, we again contacted the Designsmith to help with the design of our on-line student registration and credit card payment system. Once again ... Paul came through for us with an excellent system that will even allow us to enter and update our upcoming training events with an easy to use administration page that is linked to our website. We receive a lot of positive comments on our website design and we strongly recommend that you let the experts at The Designsmith design you website.

After interviewing several companies, we chose to work with The Designsmith's-Paul Miller for our website re-design. Mr. Miller looked at what we had and listened to what we wanted, which was a "custom design". He created and delivered a website that actually worked for us and our customers. Paul always responded quickly to any concern with a "Can Do" attitude which we appreciated. We would highly recommend his company and continue to work with him today.
Damon Levy, Owner - Cyclone Laundry & Internet Cafe
My new company needed a web presence, but I feared I would have to engage a web designer in a far off locale who didn't speak my language. I was introduced to the Designsmith by an old friend. The professionals at the Designsmith coordinated our needs; facilitated the necessary communication, and offered a vision of a final product. They turned it into reality seemingly overnight. I can't report being happier with a vendor in years! Their work was prompt, professional and poised. And when I have had changes to my site -- as I'm sure all web customers do -- the Designsmith has handled them in the same manner. I am a satisfied customer.
Jefferson Angers, President - Center for Coastal Conservation
I came to Paul with a website that someone had designed for us years ago and now needed some changes. The problem was we didn't know how to get into the account and couldn't locate the previous designer. Paul came in and rebuilt the site and helped clean it up. We never had any down time for the website and Paul had it fixed in a timely manner.

I am very pleased with The Designsmith. Paul was able to figure out exactly what I needed. He met those needs with professionalism and care. Also, he was very easy to work with and made my project enjoyable.
Carl Barkemeyer, Owner - Carl Barkemeyer, Attorney at Law
This experience has been over the top. Your communication and patience with this process was impressive. Plus, your programing skills combined with your eye for design and background in writing, makes your one man show an incredible value. Thank you for your dedication to getting it right and all of the extras you have thrown in. Would do it again tomorrow. If anyone wants to call me about my experience, I will be happy to talk with them.
Richard Akin, MD, DDS - Oral Surgery
The Designsmith did a website reconstruction for us adding a substantial amount of content and refining the overall look of the site. I was very impressed by the steady communication about options, styles, etc., and also with the suggestions made that were above and beyond what was required. The entire website is better organized and there is an excellent content manageability program I was able to use with ease immediately. We are very satisfied and look forward to continuing our relationship with The Designsmith!
Debra Credeur, Program Director - LA Dept of CRT / Atchafalaya Heritage Area
Paul was very helpful with creating a brand for my company. He has a great approach of taking what a company does a portraying that in logo and website graphics. He listened to what our company offers as well as what we wanted it to look like in a logo and website. Being a designer myself I really appreciated the way Paul took care of the client(me) throughout the entire design process. I would highly recommend using Paul for any of the services he offers. You get what you want when it is all over. That's true customer service.

I want to express my sincere gratitude for the exceptional work The Designsmith has done for LIPCA Insurance Agency during the past year. Based on that work, I enthusiastically recommend The Designsmith as an effective partner in the ever critical area of website design and development. Ultimately the look and feel of a website is the measure of a website designer, and the results speak for themselves! The Designsmith has performed exceptionally well and based on these results, LIPCA will continue to be a key partner in the future.
Allen Herring, IT Manager - LIPCA Insurance Angency
Paul has built all of my websites. Being a designer myself I appreciate Paul's attention to detail. I will use him for years to come!
Jeb Barber, Owner - Makaira Landscape and Pools
Working with Paul to develop our new website was a great experience. Working with other designers is not always easy, but Paul listened to our preferences, made suggestions to improve them, and then implemented the ideas beautifully. He was always available to answer questions and was extremely responsive to phone calls and emails. Overall, the experience could not have been better! I would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to create a website!
Zach Broussard, Project Manager - Jeffrey Carbo Landscape Architects
I can't believe some of the things that Paul creates for me. I send him a serverely rough draft of a vision I have and he turns it into magic marketing material! Thanks!
Lindsey Shehane, Wellness Program Coordinator - Healthy Lives
We have used The Designsmith to design several of our companies websites. Paul is very easy to work with and will come up with the perfect answer for your webpage design.
Leslie Hornyak, IT Director - PBOA/Risk Services
It quickly became apparent why Paul came so highly recommended. Not only does he bring his vast experience and expertise to your project, but he is a pleasure to work with, very helpful and extremely patient as he guides you through the website development process. In the end, we were left with a great website and one unanswered question - 'Why didn't we go to him sooner?'
Jimmy McGee, Owner - NOVA Consulting, LTD
We consider ourselves very lucky to have hired Designsmith for our web project. Paul's work is excellent, fast and affordable. I am always impressed by the quick response time and the high quality work. We never approach a web or design project without thinking of Paul. Every project is done right, done quickly and on budget. What else is there?
David Schenck, Information Technology Director - District Attorney's Office, Baton Rouge Louisiana
The Designsmith made building a website for my company easy, professional and quick. The knowledge and explanation that went in to each step was helpful and impressive. It could not have gone any better. Thank you!
Jill Didier, Owner - FitIQ Global
I got a little nervous when tasked with putting up a complex website for Louisiana's 200th year anniversary and only a week to do it. At the end of the week, the site was to be unveiled at a travel summit. There was no wiggle, just 168 hours and counting down fast. My web team was locked up with projects and did not have the design skill to do the project quickly. I remembered that we had worked quickly and smoothly with Paul at the Designsmith on a website for CISD a few years past. I gave Paul a call and enlisted his assistance. He did the impossible and whipped the site into shape with 24 hours to spare. The Department and the Bicentennial Commission are delighted with the site. Several mentioned how much they enjoyed working with Paul. They were also pleased with his reasonable rates and willingness to work nights and weekends to complete the project. Several of my colleagues have approach me with requests their sites, maintenance, facelifts and hosting be transferred from other web design firms to Paul.
Doug Bryant, IT Director - OLG/DCRT
We love the new website! The new design is fabulous! I am glad The Designsmith was able to organize all of our information and make it easier to find what people are looking for. I also LOVE how easy it is to update the website. I can put in new information or update existing info, click submit, and "poof" it is updated in the site!! Thanks for all of your help along the way too!! You are easy to work with and I appreciate your patience while I learned my way around the admin tools.
Lisa Thomas, Board Member - GBRCTA
Working with you to develop my website was so easy and pain free. You were very patient with my lack of computer knowledge. I think the finished product is better than my expectation. Thanks so much for your patience and professionalism.
