Kelly Wilson
WILSON SISTERS
"As a creative professional I often struggle to trust others with the design process, but right from the beginning I was confident Sara and the team at GFM Branding understood my vision. From the moment those initial concepts....
...came through I knew I had chosen well; they totally understood who I was and what I was trying to capture. The finished website exceeds everything I could have dreamed; it is clean, sophisticated, easy to navigate and captures my personality! For one of the first times in my life I was able to feel confident that not only would I love the end result, but that it was going to be better than what I could have designed myself. Even more importantly the process throughout has been fun and low stress; they are exceptionally talented at what they do and have been an absolute joy to work with.”

THE GROOMING LOUNGE & DAYCARE
"I recently engaged GFM to develop our new website and I couldn't be happier with the outcome. From the outset, they grasped the essence and vibe I envisioned, infusing it with their own artistic expertise. The result is...
...a website that not only meets but exceeds my expectations and perfectly reflects our brand identity. Working with Sara and Bryan was easy; their responsiveness and efficiency in communication and planning was amazing. They also offered valuable guidance and training, leaving me confident to manage and update the site independently. I highly recommend GFM to anyone seeking to elevate their professional online presence.”

SNOODLE
"GFM has been totally awesome in making my dream business a reality, even back when I was just 13! They helped me kickstart my Facebook page, and before I knew it, I had over 1000 followers. But then things got crazy with...
...all the messages coming in, so GFM suggested setting up an online shop. Fast forward 2½ years, and I've got over 5000 followers and sold over 2000 coats last year, thanks to the Shopify website GFM built for me the process has been easy to manage. They've been super patient, explaining everything in a way that makes sense to me. They even showed me how to use the Shopify app and set up a cool POS system for I can take electronic payments when I sell at markets. My Snoodle Dog Coat business wouldn't be where it is without the help of GFM – they're part of the Snoodle team!”

FOOD HABITS
"Fantastic is the word I would use to describe the level of service and the product quality from Bryan and the team at GFM. When I started my business I had very little idea about websites and social marketing but Bryan...
... was fantastic in guiding me through the process. And their website content management system means I feel confident updating my own website now. From the initial logo designs to the final website he kept me informed along the way. Bryan and Sara did a great job communicating my ideas and concepts to the graphics team exactly, but were also willing to rework things if they didn't quite hit the mark.
GFM produced my website, logo and stationery and I couldn't be happier. I will definitely use them in the future."

PURE DAY SPA
"I first met Sara Reid of Go Forward Marketing in 2010 (now known as GFM Web Design) when she was getting the Divine Day Out Wedding Expo, in Kerikeri, off the ground. I was impressed initially by her amazing creativity and...
... the exquisite work she presented, but then found myself having a growing respect for her professionalism and ability to pull everything together under intense pressure. I became one of her greatest fans!
So when it came to starting my own business- it was a complete no-brainer who I should approach to do my design work.
Sara’s brief from me was that I wanted something short and punchy. Something clean looking – no frilly swirls or curls. Something that would work with an “earthy stones and plants” look. I thought I wanted something green coloured.
What Sara delivered completely blew me away and exceeded my expectations. I was presented with not one, but SIX logo designs – and within those six designs were several variations to reflect the two stages of the business. Yes, she had delivered the green I thought I wanted... but then she threw in a curve ball... just goes to show who knows best! I LOVE my pink logo. And I love that she had the balls to go against what I said I wanted, and present me with something that made me go WOW! I have still got my short and punchy look – AND I don’t have to compromise on my interior colour schemes as Sara had done her homework by selected a shade that complimented by earthy tones.
Sara’s attention to detail continues to carry through in the amazing work she has put into my branding.
If you are starting a business, or rebranding an existing one, I totally recommend Sara for the job. She really CARES about your business and making it grow. Getting Sara on board is one business decision you will never regret!"
