Need designer for logo and website design
I run a local small business and have been using a website I created myself on weebly. I'm to a point where I want to upgrade my site and get an official logo created for the business. I need to hire a designer who can 1) design a logo, and 2) make my website way more professional-looking. I want the website to be informational for clients but also have the ability to capture leads when people land on the site from social media or google searches. I also need help organizing all the information on my website in a way that makes sense for how people read and click through a website when they land on the main page, and I need to be able to make changes to the website on my own about 3-4 times yearly as my services change. Please send me recommendations for designers who are fun to work with and who do great work! And if anyone has any ballpark idea of how much this service might cost me, I'd love to get an idea so I can budget for it. Thanks!

Check out Nancy Cutler at Midnight Oil Design. She designed our website -- see mmdglobaladvisory.com. Nancy is warm, personable, and understands a budget. We trust her and have been working with her since 2002. There's no one better.
I just went through that entire process, so let me share with you what I learned along the way: I worked with an amazing marketing professional named Leeann Alameda at Alameda Marketing Solutions first. She did a ton of research, coordinated with my graphic artist, Ross Turner of Ross Turner Designs, presented an entire marketing plan which could work in a number of different ways depending on my time commitment and budget. I also created a short video which is on YouTube, that has brought my SEO numbers way high. I worked with Stu Sweetow at Audio Visual specialists on the video. Every step was coordinated by Leeann, she hired writers, she's amazing. Check out her credentials . . . Good luck!
I have worked with Ross Turner Design at RossTurnerDesign.com who designed my book cover for "Wired Child: Reclaiming Childhood in a Digital Age," the cover of which gets a lot of praise. He's local, easy to work with, and gifted with design.
Best of luck,
Richard
