Carolina Blue Design Group designed our annual report at Smart Start Partnership for Children. I was so impressed with Sarahs work. She is creative and professional. Beyond her amazing design, and 100% professional work she is responsive and patient when waiting for copy. While she may have waited two to three weeks for me, when she received pictures or edits she made changes immediately and her turn around time was great. I am so thankful to know of this company and highly recommend their work.
Sarah has been an absolute pleasure to work with in setting up the branding for my new Real estate firm, Town & Country Realty of the Carolinas. Its clear that her technical prowess allows her to express the work with clarity, efficiency and accuracy.The best compliment I can give, however is how well she listens and communicates. This ability clearly showed itself her product. In the first drafts that she produced based on our verbal consultation, it was clear that she pretty much nailed it. There were only very slight adjustment that were made from there.Aside from her skill as a designer, she is also a good advocate for implementing an effective branding strategy as a whole. Im looking forward to working with her as things develop in my business
We so appreciated the professionalism and patience with us as we worked thru the branding process. We have a large team and that can at times seem arduous. Sarah handled it with grace, efficiency and availability throughout the process. And her artwork on the logo is outstanding! ONE Church, Brevard, NC
Sarah is phenomenal to work with. She is very knowledgeable and her artistic abilities add a special touch to her work. She is dedicated to providing a service that best reflects our marketing needs. Highly recommend Sarah with Carolina Blue Design Group.
I loved working with Carolina Blue Design. They guided me throughout the whole process of designing informational brochures for my business. Wonderful customer service and attention to detail. Thank you so much!
Sarah was suggested to us by another non-profit. Shes been great to work with - very easy to communicate with and always meets our deadlines, even when weve had some rush orders. I appreciate her being available by phone, email or even text. This is helpful for busy professionals like us who are in and out of the office often. Her design work is great. She delivers exactly what we ask for, with minimal revisions needed. She just makes the whole process easy.
We recently collaborated with Sarah Thew on an initial ad for our 2019 marketing campaign. Sarah took the draft of an ad we created and applied her artistic and creative touches. The result was outstanding.Sarah was easy to work with, responded quickly to our requests for changes and was 100% professional throughout the entire process. Not only do I recommend Sarah and Carolina Blue Design Group, I plan to use them again in the future.
Cant say enough good things about Sarah Thew of Carolina Blue Design Group. Sarah designed a awesome Logo for me. She is creative, fairly priced, professional, and easy to work with. I am very happy with my decision to go with Sarah. I highly recommend Carolina Blue Design Group.
Sarah continues to be a joy to work with on our many projects. She helped us create new mastheads for our internal newsletters, internal web portal, and a beautiful four piece wall of gratitude design which incorporated a graphic element from each of our stained glass windows. She is client-centered in her work and a quick conversation often is all that is needed for her to grasp the overall purpose and from there she needs little direction unless the project requires more interaction. Sarah has trained several of our staff in the use of inDesign and is helping with one of our departments monthly newsletter. We continue to seek her guidance on our in-house design. We are truly blessed with our partnership.
Sarah worked on several graphics projects for me and Actuate Media. She did a wonderful job of directing the projects from start to finish, communicating clearly and regularly to keep me on task, and providing great input as to the most important elements of each piece. Most importantly, she produced great work that I really like. And my partners, who only saw the finished product, were very pleased with her representation of our company. Were super happy and highly recommend Sarah and Carolina Blue Design Group!
I have had the pleasure of dealing with Sarah Thew and the Carolina Blue Design Group for the past 8 years, not only for my officiating camp, Carolinas Finest Referee Camp and but also with Athena of Henderson County. Her work is extremely professional and of the highest quality performed by Sarah and her team. I strongly recommend Carolina Blue Design for all your graphic art needs.
I was referred to Sarah from my barber after I saw the branding she did for her. I have had a wonderful experience working with Sarah as she has cleaned my logo, redesigned my business cards and created a new luggage tag. She is flexible and she works hard to give you a product that you will love.Her designs have helped the branding of business. As far as Im concerned, she is the official graphic artist for Survivorgyrl Travel. I highly recommend her services.
I have used Sarah at Carolina Blue twice now. Once for a logo, once for a rack card design for the same company. Was very pleased both times and will definitely use again if I need more graphic design work.
I was in a network group with other businesses where referrals from outside and inside among the membership were taking place. I was referred to Carolina Blue within the membership by a local printing company for a simple need of making my logo a vector file so it would print well for a truck wrap. As a business owner I know that communication is an essential part of customer service, and the contractor is responsible for insuring that happens, but from the start there was bad communication with Sara Thew.A deposit is a go ahead to proceed with work. I was told I would need to give a 200.00 deposit with a job total of 400.00. I was shocked that it could cost so much to do the simple task. So I started shopping around and found someone to do for 75.00. At the next group meeting just a few days later I found Mrs.Thew had started work without a deposit and she gave a first draft of a logo redesign, a redesign I did not ask for. All I wanted was the vector file. To try and keep goodwill with a group I had just begun with some two months earlier I gave her a deposit and explained that I did not want to change my logo. So now I am a little stressed that Im gonna be paying 400.00 for a vector, but figure Ill get it back in referred business anyway.By the 3rd draft she at least started getting back to my original look but I still didnt have a vector file. I finally had to tell her bluntly to just forget it. To this day I dont understand how something so simple could have been misconstrued. Plain and simply a contractor has to listen intently to what the customer wants. I would not recommend Carolina Blue and will continue to tell others of my bad experience.
Carolina Blue designed an awesome logo for the Summit Academy of Music very quickly! After a brief design consult CB came back with exactly what we were looking for. What we didnt realize was that the logo and its elements would help us define our brand more clearly and reach out to more potential customers. SO HAPPY WITH THE LOGO!!Since then weve redesigned the website, purchased business cards and promo products. All of these tasks took almost no effort at all since CB was able to communicate with those other vendors quickly.We highly recommend Carolina Blue.
We used Sarah Thew and CBDG for branding our new business, Lolas Celebration Venue. We also had her help in re-branding our existing business, Historic Thompsons Store. With both projects, Sarah did a fantastic job. She listened to our ideas and helped marshal our thoughts into a coherent look and style. We were extremely pleased with her creativity and professionalism, and the end results of the design were just what we were looking for!
I have worked with Sarah in the past, and felt her work was so creative and effective, that weve hired her again. Carolina Blue Design group offers reasonable and competitive pricing, and the work Ive seen is top-notch. I cant wait to see what she comes up with this time!
Carolina Blue Design Group is top-notch! Sarah does a wonderful job incorporating aspects of your business that you want to convey into a beautiful, contemporary, eye-catching design with consistency throughout. She has created logos or town seals for several of the communities in the Western North Carolina area including Saluda and Fletcher. Not only is she a beautiful person, you will be well taken care of if you utilize Carolina Blue Design Group for your graphic design needs. Well worth it!
A FEW MONTHS AGO I HIRED SARAH THEW WITH CAROLINA BLUE DESIGN GROUP TO DESIGN MY BUSINESS A NEW LOGO. I HAD REACHED THE POINT WITH MY BUSINESS THAT IF I WANTED TO GROW BEYOND WHAT I ALREADY HAD I NEEDED TO MAKE CHANGES. RE-BRANDING IS SOMETHING I HAVE NEEDED TO DO FOR A LONG TIME. THE LOGO THAT SARAH CAME UP WITH WAS SPOT ON. IT IS BOLD YET SIMPLE AND CONVEYS THE TYPE OF BUSINESS I DO. BEYOND THAT SHE SUPPLIED ME WITH ALL OF THE FORMATS I REQUIRED FOR SIGNAGE ETC. THE PRICE WAS FAIR AND SHE WORKED WITH ME ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE PROCESS AND CONTINUES TO HELP ME WITH ANY NEEDS. I RECOMMEND CAROLINA BLUE DESIGN GROUP FOR ALL OF YOUR GRAPHIC DESIGN NEEDS!
I love working with Sarah for my business graphic needs. She created a phenomenal logo for me that perfectly represented my brand and grew my brand even more with a two sided flyer I use for every new customer. Would refer them to anyone!
Sarah has helped me so much in a time of panic & urgency! She does exactly what she says she will do & in such a professional manner! Will always call her first! Kim Houston The Casting Gym
Cant say enough of their knowledge of web design and illustration. What a great group to work with. I wouldnt send anyone looking for this kind of help in Asheville anywhere else. These guys are SPOT ON!
Amazing!
We use Carolina Blue for some work on our business branding and marketing, and could not be happier. Sarah is really patient and works hard to make sure you get exactly what youre looking for. Were really happy with them and will continue to use.
