Website design, ecommerce web site design and professional graphic design testimonials - Poppy Design & Graphics Elgin Scotland UK

What our clients are saying...

Joanne MacRae of Poppy Design and Graphics is great to work with! She comes up with the ideas, keeps you informed and takes your requests into consideration. It's also obvious that she works very hard to keep projects within their original deadlines. I don't imagine it's an easy job being a designer, balancing the creative elements of the business with communicating their and also the client ideas, but I appreciated the way in which Joanne struck a good balance between using my ideas and suggesting concepts to me.
Mandy Tulloch at Wild Child (www.wildchildadventures.co.uk) - October 2009

The brief was to revamp my website, improve the functionality and do some background SEO work. Joanne understood what I wanted immediately and not only carried it out to the letter but seemed to intuitively know what I would like.

She kept me in the loop and answered all my questions promptly and comprehensively; anything I didn't understand was explained in simple terms. I am over the moon with the result; it's exactly what I wanted and I really believe this is going to improve sales.I now have a site I'm really proud of and would recommend Joanne to anyone wanting clean, stylish graphic or website/ecommerce design, delivered quickly and effectively; she's a pleasure to work with!
Tara Leaver at Boutiko (www.boutiko.co.uk) - August 2009

Communication was excellent throughout the development of the website. It began with a face-to-face consultation to discuss in detail the requirements and expectations. All subsequent communication was via regular e-mail.
I felt very much involved throughout the development process with very regular (more often once/twice daily) communication throughout. Our needs were quickly understood and our biggest issue, speedy delivery, was certainly provided.
There was some use of 'jargon' not immediately understood by ourselves, but all queries were promptly responded.
Final outcome was excellent. Every detail we commented on was attended to. Our revised site was up and running a week before the deadline. We provided 'indications' of what we were looking for be means of sample sites we had seen elsewhere and this proved invaluable to achieving what we wanted within the timescale. We were quite taken back by (a) the time taken to respond, and (b) the quality of delivery - both were exceptional.
To summarise, we were extremely pleased with the delivered product and would highly recommend Poppy Designs to anyone looking for that added 'personal touch'.
Warren Ackroyd at Oilenco Ltd (www.oilenco.com) - January 2009

I have been absolutely delighted with the work of Poppy Design & Graphics Ltd. From the beginning, plenty of effort was made to really understand what I needed and wanted to achieve from the site. Everything that would happen throughout the project was made clear so I knew what to expect at each stage. I was kept up to date throughout the entire process, and always felt informed. Any questions always received a prompt response and anything remotely technical that I didn't quite understand was explained in simple terms. I had an overwhelming sense that I was in good hands throughout. Such reliability should not be taken for granted. As for expectations, my site was complete a week before deadline, much to my delight. I have been blown away with the professionalism of Poppy Design. Nothing is too much trouble and the results speak for themselves.

This is the third, ever more complex, web site that Joanne has done for us - she and Poppy have been wonderful and many thanks to her and her colleagues. We have had dual English / Chinese web sites completed and now a big re-design of our main site, with a chunk of work done on pushing our site up the rankings. Even with unreasonably tight timescales Joanne managed to get a complex site up and running on-time... with much appreciated patience.
Gavin Jones www.upperquartile.co.uk - July 2008

Many thanks for all the work you have done on our new website. We are very happy with the end result and have received favourable comments from everyone who has seen it. Throughout the process you have been prompt, knowledgeable and reliable, and have dealt with all our questions and requirements swiftly and efficiently. Your efforts and expertise have been much appreciated and we look forward to working with you on future developments of the site.
Rebecca Hallewell, www.pocketwalks.com - May 2008

Thank you once again Joanne for your professionalism, speed and efficiency, to say nothing of the fantastic design you have produced for us! It is just what we wanted; we are so thrilled and will use you again for any web or graphic design projects that we have.
Many thanks Anna & Minas, www.bricksrestaurant.co.uk - April 2008

I’m organising myself to go off to the Gift Fair in Birmingham tomorrow and just wanted to say thanks so much for getting the business cards arranged in time. They look really fabulous – very chic and classy. I love the way you’ve laid them out so thanks again. ..
Caroline Smith, Gifts & Gardens Gift Shop, Braemar - March 2008

Ooooooohhhhhh I just had a look at fionathomson.com and it's lovely!!!!! Thank you sooooo much for making such a beautiful site - I feel quite inspired now because I want to add some beautiful pictures to do it justice. It's just lovely and exactly what I was hoping for! I just can't wait to show it off to everyone...

I'm almost reluctant to recommend Poppy Designs, as I'm worried that next time I need them they'll be too busy! But then again, it wouldn't be fair to keep them to myself. It is rare to find a web design company which combines a strong aesthetic sense with good technical knowledge, but Poppy Designs certainly does. Joanne is fast, professional and a woman of her word. When she says she'll do something, you can be absolutely sure it will be done - and that's a rare quality. I have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone and will certainly ask her to work with me on future projects.
Lucie Storrs, www.thelightbeyond.com - June 2007

Contacting Joanne at Poppy Design & Graphics was definitely one of best business decisions I’ve made! Initially, I had no real idea of what I wanted my company web site to look like, and must say I am absolutely delighted with the end product. Joanne’s fantastic design has truly captured the essence of our company, and we continue to receive brilliant feedback from everyone who logs on to the website. I recently asked Joanne to design some print work for our company and she promptly sent fabulous designs, which also complement our web site perfectly. It has been an absolute pleasure working with Joanne and I would have no hesitation in recommending her design services.
