• As far as web-designers go, and I don’t particularly like them, Craig Maher is a rare bird. He is cutting edge in terms of knowing all the inside dope one needs to know about this field, and even the corporate stuff (ugh!), but he can bring his heart and the human side to the construction table. Knowing the latest developments before others do is certainly an advantage, but it is a downright gift to have someone who can work with and even anticipate the human side of what you want from your site. If that’s what you want. And I don’t know of someone who works harder – his is an old-fashioned work ethic that he brings to a sharp springboard-like techno sensibility. This guy is amazing, unique, and uncompromising in his work. And utterly unrelenting in achieving his and your goal. ~ Richard Milazzo (richardmilazzo.com)
• I can’t express how much Craig Maher is helping our company, GDVSource, in our efforts to rebrand and up-level the entire ecosystem of our business. GDVSource is the North American Institute for Gas Discharge Visualization (GDV) imaging camera technology. These digital kirlian devices are used worldwide in the measurement and analysis of physical & emotional energy fields.

  We came to Craig with the initial desire to improve our website, but he helped us to realize that we were not only building the site for ourselves but for our consumers and their needs. Our story and mission was unclear and did not reflect how the business operated & conveyed the true benefits internally / externally. He proceeded to aid us to appreciate the process and to clarify our goals, and implement the much needed core guideline changes that are now set in stone.
  
  We have worked on aligning our employees to the new company vision, and even making them brand champions. We are in the process of revamping all of our branding components including identity, visual system, training, literature, social media, presentations, and of course, our website. We could not have done this without his strategic approach, creativity, technical skills, talent and support to guide us every step of the way. He is the best. ~ Mary Milroy (GDVSource)

• Craig has been helping me re-brand my Micro-Distillery and I am extremely pleased with the whole process. His passion, vision, and commitment to helping me present the clearest and most effective imagery and narrative has not only improved my marketing but really helped me re-think how I was presenting my company and product. I began with the "Brand Start-Up" and have been moving forward with him from there. ~ Chris Bukosky (Trenton Farms)
• I came back to Craig for more when I saw the incredible responses I got to the new landing page, social media, and the new site he worked on. I flew in from France to meet with with him to begin the process on a new project. I am also about to skype a very close friend to introduce him to the realities available through Craig. I'm recommending him to my closest people in NY and France / Germany. ~ Kevin Clarke (Conceptual Portraits)
• I use Craig to handle all my web, social media and marketing materials for my business. After seeing how committed he was to all the projects he completed for me, I would highly recommend him for any of your visual branding / web needs. ~ Kenneth Zeltakalns (Visionary Artist)
