"James involved me every step of the way with the redesign of my Power of Pregnancy logo. He honored my vision and stepped in to offer his professional opinion when it mattered.

The new branding provides a much stronger framework into which my business will grow."

I recommend working with James!"

"I have worked exclusively with James Brown at Outreach Media for about 6 years now, and he always exceeds my expectations. James built and updates the website for my skin care clinic. The new logo, branding elements and e-commerce has really helped my business grow. The thing I love most about working with James is he listens so well to my needs and thoughts - I only need to say something once and he gets the job done. He is always on time and has never missed a deadline. He is professional, creative, fair and honest. I will forever be a loyal client."

AP Kaminsky - Owner of Skin Esthetics

"A trusted friend referred me to James after I tried to create a logo for my new business. While I gave it my best effort, James totally nailed it. After just one phone conversation, he was able to create something that was better than I could have dreamed up, and he helped me refine the name of my business so it made better sense in the end. I can honestly say, when I saw the final logo, I was literally jumping up and down. I couldn't have been happier or more impressed by James' creativity, professionalism, and speed working on this project."
