testimonials for kano design

"I just wanted to write down how much I appreciate the website that you designed for me, cmbayrshire.com. I have had good comments about it from my customers, and from other cmb consultants I know, but I think the best accolade for your work came just last week, from another web designer. He had sent me an email touting for business. I would normally just have deleted it, but I was obviously in a funny mood, so I answered his email, suggesting that he did his homework, and look at the website I already have. This he duly did, and he came back a couple of days later saying that he thought it worked well, and wishing me luck in my business. It must be good if you impress a competitor enough to stop him pestering me!

I am similarly happy with the Gravitas-UK.com website, so much so I named the company after it! One targets consumers, the other targets businesses, and you have brought them together for me under the Auchencloigh.co.uk umbrella, so it is simple to see my total remit, whilst maintaining the essential diversity.

They are already effective in driving business for me, and I have every confidence that they will for a long time to come, with the odd tweak now and again. Thank you for your hard work and wonderful designs. I have already, and will continue to recommend you to anybody looking for a better website."

"We would like to record & express our satisfaction with work carried out by Debbie Sutherland of KANO DESIGN. We had a very difficult problem in as much we have taken over the web sites of two of our competitors recently, namely www.Lanzarote-travel.co.uk and www.independent-villas.co.uk

We approached KANO DESIGN for quotations as to the cost of changing telephone contact numbers & redirection of all e-mail traffic from both web sites to our office.

Debbie over a period of 2 weeks came up with a few suggestions & prices one of which was agreed and for a very reasonable cost the work was carried out quickly in a most professional & competent manner. We would have no hesitation in recommending Kano Design & Debbie to any other company or individual."

"I write to thank Debbie for the help she has given me with the revamp of my website recently. My website had always been unsatisfactory since development and I found my website provider very unhelpful over the years.

I was never entirely satisfied with my website, the logo was not in the font I use in my stationery, the colour was wrong, pages in frames and so on but I found it difficult to get changes made to it and for many months I thought my website developer had given up altogether. So when I moved office and could not get my website updated to show my new contact details I had to do something.

Debbie very quickly assessed my site and we agreed that she would update it for me by creating a new logo, altering the colour to the colour I use in my stationery, removing the frames, changing the contact details. I was also able to arrange a domain name transfer, website hosting and emails - I now have several useful email addresses with Debbie's assistance and guidance.

Finally, Debbie has optimised and submitted the site for search engines so that it will be found more easily by anyone looking for virtual assistance and I now receive each week emailed Website Statistics which enable me to monitor the amount of interest there has been in my site. Debbie is easy to talk to and get on with and I feel confident that it will now be easier in the future to update my website and keep it fresh. I have no hesitation in recommending Debbie."

"I wanted a domain name to direct people to my publisher's site where they could buy my book and the publisher wanted £71 for supplying this. Debbie has set me up for a fraction of the price and also set up a new email address. The domain name takes you to a page showing the book then redirects you to the publisher's site. I couldn't have done this in a hundred years so I am really grateful to Debbie for doing it almost immediately when I asked her."
Marion Law

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Kano design for my very professional and detailed website. Firstly I would like to say how pleased I was with the time you took to go over the needs of my company and what we required from the web page.

Secondly the professional way that you handled your service to my company when there was change you very patient and remained focused on the job at hand and at no time did you want a quick finish you were more interested in getting my company the website that was best for us.

Finally I would just like to thank Kano Design for the web site as we have already benefited from it as people get to see what our company is all about and have now got two contracts from it. I would have no hesitation to pass on your company details to anyone looking for a web presence."

"I would like to give a testimonial for Debbie Sutherland of Kano design who designed and prepared my website, www.remax-kilwinning.com. I gave Debbie the brief and she was on the case immediately, giving me snapshots of what she was doing as she went. I was not only very impressed by the finished article and design, but amazed that she had managed to incorporate the ReMax Scotland website for my properties for sale, seamlessly.

Clients and sales people alike, especially media related businesses all tell me what I good website it is and a couple have asked me who designed it. In particular any one finding the website find it most professional and that I should get good business from it.

As far as search engine optimisation, I have been number on page one for three months now for estate agents Kilwinning and all associated searches. In addition, I have received plenty of calls from the site and have achieved 3 listings through the site, more than paying for Debbie's reasonable fees.

I have recommended Debbie's services to many of my clients and can advise you all to do likewise knowing you will receive a great service and a great end product which will get you more business!"

"Debbie Sutherland has recently created an amazing, imaginative, attractive and practical website for my business suddenlysinglemoney.com. Throughout the construction process Debbie kept me fully informed and updated at all times. She used her skills and expertise to guide me and provided me with options and possibilities that I had no idea even existed. She even motivated me to ensure that I provided my own case study input to ensure that the project moved forward in a fresh and timely fashion.

It is also set up to "evolve" and develop as my business does, which will enable me to quickly adapt and enhance what works and alter what has not worked for me. It is flexible, dynamic and - most importantly, it is working!

I am delighted with the outcome and I will be using Debbie for another project which I am now undertaking. I have no hesitation in recommending Debbie and Kano Design for her creativity and professionalism."
Lynn Burns
