“We found ImageWorks Studio while looking for a one-stop solution to all of our branding and marketing needs. They were instrumental in the development of our corporate name, tag line, and overall brand image and we have been thrilled with the results of their creativity.

ImageWorks has created a tangible image for us that is consistent with our core message. Our website, brochure, collateral, and on-location signage has all been developed with our philosophy in mind. We have benefited from their approach to create an image that is more than just a good design, but rather a comprehensive brand identity which incorporates strong marketing goals and objectives. Thanks to the IWS team for creating a brand for us which consistently receives rave reviews!”

Jennifer Bower, Owner
BeanTree Learning

“Scott, I just wanted to let you know that we launched a beta version of the website tonight. Your team have been phenomenal to work with and the quality of the work speaks for itself. Thank you for Imagework's support on our website and branding. You work has brought our branding to a new level.”

Tri Phan
Trusted Integration

“I found ImageWorks Studio by chance, and we at BoxCart have been very pleased ever since. IWS at least “claimed” to do what we needed – web design, internet marketing, etc.  After checking out their website(which was  clearly better designed and much more informative than other firms we looked at), of course, I called Scott, and from our first phone conversation through the initial meetings, Scott and the rest of the team at IWS seemed almost as excited as we were to put several strategies in place to grow our business using our website and other internet marketing initiatives.  That enthusiasm alone was infectious, and we signed a contract with them that very week! 

ImageWorks has redesigned our website, assisted with SEO optimization, and completed several other internet-related projects.  The number of visitors to our site has increased as well as the conversion rate, and as a result our revenues have increased.  We continue to impress both customers and industry professionals by the image we project – which of course, starts with our brand presence that IWS has created for us. 

We’ve been so pleased that IWS is consistently the first place we go to when we have an idea for a new marketing initiative, and when we have needs for any sort of graphic design.  The IWS staff is clearly knowledgeable about their services, and I’m very happy with all the projects they have assisted us with.  Thanks to all of you for a job well done!!”

Amy Stowell
Vice President, BoxCart

“We chose ImageWorks after considering a few vendors based on the strength of their past work and unique insight into blending design and marketing. We soon realized how little we “really” new about effective marketing as I watched ImageWorks build my brand from the ground up with a customer first focus, designed to meet specific sales oriented goals.

I continue to receive numerous complements on my web site and collateral but the best benefit were the increased qualified leads that I received leads which enabled me to take my company to the next level.

Recently our new brand helped close a new contract worth $800k annually, which makes my initial investment in ImageWorks more than worth it! Thanks ImageWorks, we will continue use your services and will always recommend you highly to any company needing marketing and branding assistance.”

Phil Senkus
President Precision Logistics.

“ImageWorks Studio helped me launch a new product line, and generated excitement while doing so. Unlike other firms I’ve worked with, they seemed interested in how their work was actually going to affect my business’s bottom line.

They worked together with me and my staff as a team, and the results blew us away. I not only recommend ImageWorks Studio to friends, I insist.”

David Toms
Taco Bell

“Just wanted to take a moment to commend the Image Works staff on the DC Capital Area Task Force design. Quite simply it has been repeatedly lauded by USMS personnel as THE sharpest Task Force logo ! An associate of mine in the Custom Insignia business told me it was the best logo he had seen in years!

Now it’s time to switch gears to the Great Lakes Regional Fugitive Task Force design. I have all the confidence in the world that the Chicago logo will be on par with the exemplary product Image Works has already produced.

I appreciate the effort put forth by your company and I very much look forward to our continued business partnership.”

Geoffrey S. Shank

“ImageWorks Studio has given me guidance and expertly refined products ranging from business brochures through print advertising on time, within budget, for over 18 months. I recommend the IWS team highly for all of your marketing and promotional needs.”

Dr. William H. Lindsey
NVCFPS

“ImageWorks Studio is a complete, one stop shop! They created our Corporate Image.. from marketing collateral materials, to corporate stationary and signage, to an interactive web site!

Their team is highly professional, responsive, and results oriented. If you don’t use Image Works, you may be making a costly mistake. Not many companies guarantee complete customer satisfaction… but they do!!!!!!”

Barry Mountain
Partner Shurgard Storage On-Site

“ImageWorks Studio is a leader in the industry. They worked diligently with us and for us to help create a marketing strategy and the supporting print and web media.

From managing the timetable, implementation and rollout of the product, they impressed me with their professionalism and exceptional quality of their graphics in an ever changing and growing technology.

I would highly recommend them as the company who is setting the standard and listening to the customers' needs to create a quality, timely and correctly priced product for the market.”

Douglas R. Armstrong
Senior Vice President Celebrations Catering

“IWS has helped my business not only appear professional from the outside looking in, but gave us the confidence to reach our objectives internally.”

Paul Gates
Gates Consulting, Inc.

“ImageWorks Studio’s e-mail and direct mail campaigns have helped us reach our target market with a goal oriented message that has surpassed any results I felt possible. Their approach is truly revolutionary. We look forward to our next project - our web site!”

Clarke Simpson
President, Mickey Simpson, Ltd.

“ImageWorks Studio not only designed our web site (which since it was launched we receive compliments daily) but they took the time to make sure we had a pre-set marketing objective, and that the site leads our clients toward this goal.

The staff at ImageWorks also helped us shorten and edit our copy which made for a more intriguing message. I highly recommend IWS to all my clients and colleagues.”

Kevin Rice
Partner, VistaRMS

“ImageWorks Studio has pretty much taken over all my long term marketing projects. I receive compliments daily on our web site, ads, and brochures.

However, beneath the brilliant graphics, I have been impressed by how much I have learned about the power behind our message. IWS helped me streamline the messages I already use and created new intriguing content that has helped me become the #1 Remax Agent Worldwide.”

Casey Margenau
#1 Remax Agent World Wide, 1999-2003 - Remax Distinctive

“IWS finished our rush project with only a few days notice. The quality exceeded our expectations. It was a pleasure to work with such a friendly and professional staff!”

How Corporate Identity, Branding, Design, Advertising and Marketing Have Changed in the new millennium:

Since the technology boom in the mid 1990's we have seen a shift in traditional advertising agencies, marketing agencies, PR firms and branding firms. In fact large agencies have downsized or gone out of business with the onslaught on "mini" ad agencies, design firms, marketing firms, consultants, and web design and development companies and agencies.

These new design and marketing companies brought New Age thinking, creative services, web strategies, cutting-edge graphic design and web design and creative and persuasive copywriting. Many of these firms and agencies however, lack the expertise in marketing to create, develop and design a brand or a branding campaign that makes an impact, initiates a sales and marketing process, and capitalized on lead generation by actually closing more sales.

How is this done? It's done by starting with a compelling marketing message, analyzing and creating a compelling marketing environment, across all platforms of marketing, advertising and branding. Doing so not only generates sales but increases closing ration, reduces time spent, maximizes return on investment.

ImageWorks is a pioneer in this methodology, embracing the niche between the smaller web design and graphic design studios…who lack the "marketing first" insight, and advertising agencies, marketing and PR firms who demand hefty fees without substantial results…who often subcontract out their work to web design companies, marketing and PR companies and graphic design firms.
In today's high-paced market place it is important to make sure your brand has a high-impact marketing message that co-exists among all marketing and advertising media…with one common goal- converting prospects into buying customers.

Below is an excerpt from an article posted in our Blog:

Coffee Is for Closers!
The 1992 movie, "Glengarry Glen Ross", summed up the sales and marketing mentality of the time in two memorable quotes that still echo among sales people: "ABCs of sales - always be closing" and "Put down that coffee; coffee is for closers!"

Not anymore. Not today. Most companies use automated phone systems, which act as gatekeepers to weed out telemarketers. Most offices post "No Soliciting" signs. Fax numbers are much less frequently shared, and few decision makers have the time to sift through direct mail.

Two strategic shifts have occurred in "sales tectonics":

It's 2008. What Works? The first shift concerns the way people find information. Conventional methods such as direct mail, print ads and advertising, direct marketing, salespeople and trade shows still work, but they need to be reinforced with a powerful web brand. Most business-to-business and business-to-consumer searches for products and services are now done through search engines. To complicate things further, even if a company or product is discovered through traditional means, the next step, the "investigative" step, is almost always done via the Web.

ImageWorks Studio tested over 100 corporate Web sites, and very, very few successfully branded a professional look and feel, with a customer-centered message leading to intuitive navigation and calls to action to encourage prospect interaction.
