“We consider Grant an integral part of the Blu Ivy team. As a freelance partner he has worked on countless projects for our own personal brand assets, including the design of our presentation decks, proposals, event materials, thought leadership and social media branding. Grant also plays a key design role on many of our client recruitment marketing and employer brand projects. He is not only a talented designer but a fabulous collaborator.”
Stacy Parker,
Managing Partner View Project
“It has been a pleasure to work with Grant. Bringing an idea to life is no easy task, but Grant is able to do this with ease. From concept to finished product, Grant is professional, solves problems, provides timely updates and is incredibly adaptable. We are thrilled with the work completed and excited for future projects!”
Mark Boulter,
Consultant View Project
“I was thoroughly impressed with Grant’s creative/artistic designs and his accommodating nature. He has a genuine desire to ensure his clients’ expectations are not only met but are exceeded! He is flexible and goes above and beyond to get the job done. With minimal guidance he was able to materialize a brand identity that accurately reflected what I had envisioned. I would highly recommend his services!”
Aymen Dewji,
Managing Partner View Project
“Choosing to work with Grant was one of the best decisions we have made. Besides being a talented graphic designer, he is responsive and professional at every step. No matter what kind of project I throw his way, from web design to traditional print, he is always insightful and collaborative, which is reflected in the quality of his work.”
Risa Edelstein,
Marketing Director View Project
“I approached Grant with a large task, with very little guidance. Make my business look pretty. Based on my logo alone, Grant developed a complete identity for my brew pub. Beer logos, hand-drawn art work, email marketing templates, website and marketing brand guideline. Every new piece added to my vision, causing me to feed him more work, which led to an increase in my vision, which led to more work. Grant did all this over the phone and email. I was able to split up the work into bite sized chunks (and bite sized payments). Grant is easy to talk to and delivers on-time. Great job, Grant. I hope I have some work for you soon.”
Robert Reno,
Owner View Project
“I stumbled upon Grant’s website while searching all over the internet for a new designer after dealing with awful experiences with a few other designers. Let me just say, I’m SO glad I found him! Not only is he insanely talented, but he always promptly responds to my emails, he listens and ensures he understands my vision for a project, and he is super friendly and great to work with! I’ve hired him for design work for both businesses that I own, and I can’t recommend him enough to anyone else looking for a great designer to work with. Thanks for all you do Grant!”
Lauren Montalette,
Owner View Project
“Grant Burke is a complete professional. He applies his talent and experience to help clients transform ideas into visually compelling branding. He’s also extremely responsive, which is key to productivity and meeting deadlines. As a start-up, I appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with someone who’s work product can compete with and outshine established brands.”
Kathleen O’Connor Ives,
Owner View Project
“We had a great experience working with Grant. He created a brand identity, logo, web site and templates for our new business. He is professional and does high quality work on time. He listens extremely well, is thoughtful and is very responsive to client desires and needs. He brought forward thoughts and concepts that we hadn’t thought of. He quickly understood our business and what we were looking for. He took feedback very well, even when we weren’t as organized or responsive as we probably should have been. The final product was (is) excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend Grant Burke Design to family, friends and colleagues.”
Cory Segin,
Principal View Project
