"In addition to the meaningful company name and impactful logo that your team created for us, I wish to thank you for the excellent design and development work you and your team performed to create our new corporate website. Not only is the technical proficiency of your team top notch, but your strong project management ensured a delivery that was on-time, on-budget, and of high quality. You smoothly overcame the timezone and cultural challenges of working with our China-based team, and were able to (seemingly!) effortlessly deliver a globalized solution in 3 languages – English, Chinese, and Japanese. Your dedication has resulted in a website that has garnered great internal and external reviews from our stakeholders. Most importantly for us, the well designed site is easily maintainable and highly intuitive to manage and expand. Thanks again for your great work, and please pass along my gratitude to your entire team." - Ken Schulz, Vice President of Marketing, Pactera Technology International Ltd. "From incredible and insightful design to a finished website ahead of schedule the experience in working with Story Hat was fantastic. Story Hat takes customer satisfaction to a new level. The results are also incredible - our data shows a 3X increase in the number of pages viewed and a 10X increase increase in the number of leads generated from the web." - David Puglia, CMO, ENXSUITE |

They provided both great design and a solid process of design followed by iteration, to meet our short timeline.” - Kevin Epstein, CloudShare "Working with Deborah and her team at Storyhat made the renaming and website development process absolutely stress free - even enjoyable.

Thanks to Storyhat, our brand has been brought to life!" -Laura Martin, VP of Marketing, Axonify "I've been in the marketing business a long time, with
companies including Coldwell Banker, Monster.com and Merrill
Lynch and MRIS. Over the course of several recent assignments,
StoryHat has proven to be a very dependable consultant and a
highly creative and ultra-flexible partner. They've helped us
rebrand the company, develop compelling collateral, and design

clients out there, and I would recommend this firm without hesitation.

“StoryHat was recommended to us by word of mouth, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! From day one, Deborah and her team took the project by the reigns asking the right questions to help us solidify our vision. They thought about the details that we hadn’t thought of ourselves. The five initial concepts were each incredibly creative, of high quality, and unique in design. Each concept clearly told the Lee & Hayes story, making our choice harder - which is not a bad position to be in when it comes to portraying your image and brand. Their timelines were right on and they kept the process in motion to make sure our anticipated launch date was met. It truly was one of the best experiences working with a vendor and made us all feel a little more creative by being involved in the process.” - Heather Burford, Marketing Coordinator, Lee & Hayes “storyhat engaged with us and delivered on a very tight timeline. The team developed a creative direction for our new identity that was unique to our name and product, and was a very responsive and patient partner throughout the entire process.” - Eric Berg, VP Products, Okta “The website has been received to rave reviews by everybody; Really great work by Storyhat.” - Deborah Quazzo, President, ThinkEquity Partners |
"We have worked closely with StoryHat in a very condensed time frame to develop and rescope our corporate profile, both through redesign of corporate logo as well as updating our web strategy. We ended up with a very proficient website which immediately generated strong market interest – and was received within the company with a lot of positive feedback. In short, complete buy-in. Just as important, we developed a new corporate design (including company logo, templates etc) that positioned our company in a very fresh but still business oriented light. StoryHat did this all within the agreed time-frame – not to forget that the project schedule was very aggressive. The StoryHat team acted de-facto as project driver & leader and made sure also that we from the company-side hit the agreed deadlines. StoryHat has an interesting combination of approaching a challenge/task with a very ambitious and at the same time realistic view on problem-solving and always with a very result-oriented view – this, in my opinion, is quite unique and was indeed something that surprised me, also compared to my experience with much bigger competitors of StoryHat. Over-all, the project was very safe in Deborah’s hands and as such, I have no difficulties in strongly recommending StoryHat’s work." - Christian Tang-Jespersen, CEO & President, Heptagon “I am very impressed with the work that Storyhat did for Parallele, and I know that the company found it easy to work with the Storyhat team and enjoyed the interaction. I would have no hesitation recommending Storyhat to other Mohr Davidow Venture companies that I work with when they are ready for primetime.” - Rowan Chapman, Mohr Davidow Ventures “I would recommend Storyhat in a heartbeat! Storyhat’s process is very streamlined; from interviewing stakeholders to researching and creating and presenting the name choices. Their rationale, thinking and presenting pros and cons and organization lent itself to quick brainstorming/review sessions and coming to a rapid conclusion.” - Vipin Jain, CEO, Retrevo |
“Our experience with Storyhat was superb. We had several 'non-believers’ in our group. After seeing the first dozen naming suggestions, they were literally shocked by the quality. Many said, 'they are all good.’ After seeing thirty or so names, we chose SH’s very first suggestion! Now we are Untangle….” - Bob Walters, CEO, Untangle “My experience with Storyhat was excellent. If you want a new company name or identity, and your website design job done right, I’d strongly recommend you go with Storyhat. This was one of the best-managed processes I’ve ever had with a vendor. They kept to the budget and timelines and made it fun along the way, and produced a great result!” - Keith Carlson, CEO, Innotas “Some agencies can be creative; some can be relied on to deliver on time; few can operate under time pressure to do both. With Storyhat, we delivered a new company name, new brand, new logo, new website and new graphics for a company launch, on a tight deadline. What impressed me most during the process was the passion, creativity and 'can-do’ attitude the Storyhat brought to the project.” - Raj Dhingra, VP Marketing Port Authority Technologies (aquired by Websens) |
“Working with Storyhat was a pleasure. Deborah is milestone driven, budget conscious and very motivated to meet her clients’ expectations. Storyhat delivered on time, on budget and exceeded our expectations.

Their style is very inclusive allowing the client to be actively involved while maintaining a disciplined approach to getting projects accomplished.” - Pete Jordan, Co-Founder, LogLogic “It is always a pleasure working with Storyhat. They do great work that always seems to meet our time and budget constraints. They were able to help us rename, rebrand and relaunch our website in less than a month! The process is efficient and targeted. It has worked great for every project we have done. We would absolutely recommend working with Storyhat, they have come through for us each time we worked with them.” - Nicole Foderaro, Assoc. Dir., Nuvelo (acquired by ARCA Biopharma) |
“Storyhat does an excellent job at full-service naming and branding. They are able to understand and meet their customer requirements effectively (in our case, a startup needing to develop a more professional image and product branding within a tight timeline). The project was completed on time and on budget.” - Maneesh Jain, Director of Marketing, ParAllele Biosciences (acquired by Affymetrix) “The pre-url-validated name-sets were a GREAT way to streamline the naming process. The well-organized extranet was an excellent tool to insure location independent contribution to the process by all members of the team, in different locations. SH was diligent about keeping us on schedule and keeping our project as a tier1 priority; having key milestones and deliverables mapped out, kept us in line. - Tom Bennett, VP Marketing, Teros (acquired by Citrix) “Storyhat drives an efficient and extremely effective process of distilling your message into the perfect form; whether it is your name, logo, identity or website.” - Nick Solinger, Director of Professional Services, Traiana |
I recommend Storyhat. Deborah and her team are a pleasure to work with. The Storyhat team developed a complete new corporate identity for PhoneSpots; a new logo, a clean new outbound look-n-feel, a new web site, and new business system. We had a fixed launch date and our project was delivered on time and within budget. Deborah’s work process and talented team really made me look good. - Rod Stuhlmuller, Former VP of Marketing, PhoneSpots, Inc. (Acquired by Call Genie, January 2008) “The great thing about StoryHat is that they came up with a professional-sounding name that captures the essence of what our product does. I couldn’t have done that myself.” - Dan Griffin, CEO Restorify “Storyhat was responsible for the design and programming of our new website. We
provided them with a very tight timeline, an uncompromising team and high
expectations. Storyhat delivered ahead of schedule, on budget and
provided our team with a good amount of well thought out designs from which
to choose. They were creative with our requirements and it resulted in a
website that we are proud to display. We would highly recommend Storyhat
and we have engaged them in additional projects post-launch.” |
“Storyhat built the launch website and collateral for our company. They quickly came up with a unique design that met our needs and stood out from others in our industry. Deborah and Ryan took our goals and translated them into a clean and visually compelling approach and graphics. And they were consistently on time, on budget and always responsive. I recommend them highly.” - Ojas Rege, VP Products and Marketing, MobileIron “With our business taking off, we were in need of a quick website refresh to address demand. We had less than 4 weeks to get the site designed, coded and live. Storyhat exceeded our requirements - we achieved our goal quickly but through a quality process. Storyhat provided solid design options, quick iterations, and delivered a very good experience.” - Jim Soss, CEO, Red Aril “I never believed renaming our company was going to be easy, and it wasn’t, but Storyhat, specifically Deborah, encouraged us through the process and kept us on track. Her experience and creativity kept everyone engaged. She told us at the beginning that at the end of the project we would be happy with the name, and we are!!!” Cheryl Diuguid, CEO, Lumetric |
“storyhat is a great resource. Not only were they creative, thorough, and highly responsive to our deadlines, they were fun to work with. I’d refer them in a heartbeat.” - Tate Holt, Founder & CEO, WorkingPoint “Storyhat was a great web design partner. Not only did they translate our marketing requirements into a tangible website, they also ensured that time differences were used effectively to deliver the project well within our deadline. The quick turnaround and their sound understanding of design and usability ensured an outcome that delighted us!” - Neha Mundhra, Intellicap We were referred to StoryHat by our PR agency. Our business
needs were fairly specific with a tight deadline. Streetline
was launching a new consumer app and we wanted to launch a completely
new website as part of that launch – in about 4 weeks. Deborah,
Ryan and the StoryHat team did a fantastic job. The initial
designs were creative and reflected a strong understanding of
our business. The end product was on time, on budget and
on spec – what more could you ask for. I would be happy
to use StoryHat for future project. " |
“Storyhat helped us raise the bar! We are so impressed with the talent and professionalism exhibited by team Storyhat and are delighted at the results. They have helped us achieve a more cohesive brand image for our holding company’s corporate website that represents multiple global brands in over 60 countries. Clean, intuitive, informative, and most importantly, our new site clearly communicates our guiding principles and brand message! This upgrade was one of many steps we will take in reaching and engaging with our customers and the public across digital platforms… and Storyhat played an important role with us in reaching this stage. Beyond their creativity, round the clock work-ethic and client relations “people skills”, we have truly enjoyed working with them.” - Solera |
