When the staff at ROBO Dock & Door decided it was time to design a new website... we realized we had plenty of choices. Although the idea of doing the project in house was tempting, we new that ultimately we did not have the extra time to invest in such a project and we knew we wanted to get the project done quickly and professionally. Turning to the multiple choices in design companies, we chose The Designsmith and Miller Studios. Their ability to understand our goals and ideas precisely led to the design and roll out of a website that not only met but exceeded our expectations. I would highly recommend The Designsmith to anyone or any company looking for a professional looking website.

Paul Miller is easy to work with and shows a true interest in his clients' businesses. I have received many compliments on the website he designed for me. It is also easy to maintain and update.

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.

As the author of the book "Smell The Popcorn: 12 Life-changing Secrets to Pop to the Top," I wanted an updated logo that would really 'POP!' Not only did Paul create a logo for my speaking business but also designed a brand for 'Pop to the Top' concept. I keep getting lots of praise for the new look logos. Paul understood what my business needed more than I did myself. Thanks Paul.

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
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
As a photographer and just starting a business, and not knowing anything about the web I contacted Paul and to this day im so glad i did. He has the knowledge and the skill to design the web the way you have in mind. He has worked with me dilligently in web support and making changes to the site from time to time. He made suggestions that i accepted in good faith that really made my site attractive and professional. Everything was done in a timely manner and finished as promised. I recommend him highly for your next web design or upgrade you won't be disappointed.

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
It is always tough to pull together a group of people who need to agree to one idea for a website to accurately represent their business. I found that Paul really understood our vision and continued to give us ideas until we were satisfied. Once we were ready to pull the trigger on the project, Paul consistently followed up to make sure we completed it! We are very pleased and highly recommend his company.
Valerie Bargas, Partner - Kinchen, Walker, Bienvenu, Bargas & Reed
We are so grateful for your experience, expertise, and patience and are so proud to call this work of art and science our own!!! Thank you for every word of encouragement and advice we have seen for ourselves why those four references I called in the beginning wouldn't let me off the phone and kept singing your praises about how good and how fast you are. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We agree that you really are the best in town.

Paul Miller, The Designsmith, is an outstanding web site designer who has built two excellent sites that have been very good for my business. Lapolitics.com, launched in 2002, has stood the test of time by continuing to look and work very well. Howtogetelected.com, in 2011, achieves the very professional look that befits the national audience it aims to attract.. Paul works quickly to offer and modify design ideas, collaborating with me at every step. He has a strong sense not only of what looks good but what sells.
John Maginnis, Publisher - LaPolitics Weekly / How to Get Elected
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
Paul was reccomended to me by another satisfied client of his and I can honestly say that he has earned another! Our company chose The Designsmith for the design of our first company website. He patiently guided me through the process and was a pleasure to work with. His patience and creativity developed a perfect image of who we are and what we are about. I would highly reccomend The Designsmith for anyone looking for professional website design services.
David Nelson, General Manager - Castle Rock Pavers, LLC
Paul did a great job of taking our information and transforming into a professional and attractive website. We were very pleased with his work and timely manner in handling all our needs.
Suzanne Kimball, Owner - Louisiana Praline Company
We hired Paul Miller to do an overhaul on our website. We are very pleased with the finished product--it's attractive, easy to navigate and the cost was well within budget. I enjoyed working with Paul - he's pleasant, patient and professional. I was especially impressed with how responsive he was and how quickly he took care of whatever I needed. Overall it was a great experience! I would use him again and I would recommend him to others.
Kelly Johannessen, Director of Communications - United Methodist Foundation of LA
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.
Carl Anderson, CFPS, President - PetroSafe Technologies
Miller Studios web, ad layout and logo designs have given MK Promotions the boost it needed to compete on a national level. We have enjoyed excellent initial results and continued support. It's been great to have Paul on our team!
Mark Kuehn, Owner - Newspaper Kiosk Sales
Our company has worked with The Designsmith now for almost one year. When we began we had an idea of the look and feel we wanted for the website. There was very little knowledge on our part of what getting to that point involved. Paul made this process very simple. After a couple of brief meetings he began design and we were able to actually see what the site looked like as it was developed. We launched the site in July of 2008 and since that time we have had absolutley no problems of any kind with our website. We have recieved many positive comments from our customers about the new appearance and ease of use of the new website.
Curtis Ainsworth, Director of Operations - Multiple Teaching Systems, Inc.
I had no idea of what my logo would turn out like when I started working with Paul. One thing I did know, however, was that I wanted to have something that looked professional and I could be proud of. Paul delivered and, even better, did so for what I thought was a very reasonable price. In addition to this and, perhaps, more importantly, Paul works with his clients with an attitude of patience and teamwork. As for Paul's patience, I found Paul to be a humble person that was easy to work with.
Steve Howell, Co-Owner - HowellAnalytics, LLC
I am extremely impressed by the efficiency and creativity exhibited by the DesignSmith. They created a high quality product for us with minimal hassle on a very tight time schedule. The best web design experience I've had in all my years in the political internet communications business.
