TESTIMONIALS

I worked with Ted for close to four years - he was the freelance designer that Palmers worked with. Ted and I worked extremely closely across at least 60 nationwide promotions (plus probably at least 100 local promotions), each requiring bespoke point of sale (price signage, posters), digital assets including EDM, Facebook, Instagram, animated digital banners and a number of different print collateral pieces including DLE flyers and catalogues.

We were in contact every single day and it quickly got to the point that I could type out an email while on the road to brief a new task to Ted and he would return the artwork exactly as I wanted. I thought of Ted as a team member of ours instead of a business owner who we worked with.

Ted was (and still is), extremely responsive to emails, very professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. He is timely in his turnaround of work and it is consistently to an incredible standard. Ted understands branding and the importance of keeping within brand guidelines, which was extremely important to us as a franchise business. 

I really appreciated Ted's dedication to each task he was given, he put thought into everything he did and you could tell his decisions were measured on what not only was the most visually appealing, but also what would look best across various channels - he would also provide a narrative of his thought process and how he arrived at the design he presented. His insight into not only design, but also the gardening industry was awe-inspiring. 

Not only did Ted just work on tasks he was given, he would use his initiative and think of ways to improve the customer's journey while instore to drive sales. Ted created a suite of 'silent salesperson' signage around the store, helping customers with some of the more daunting topics or tasks that could assist them if there were not staff present, or if they didn't want to ask. The signage solution was simple, informative and helped to upsell. This store signage received the greatest number of compliments from our franchisees that we had ever experienced.

Ted is a pleasure to work with and is our go to for all things design. His knowledge and understanding of our brand is a huge asset to us and makes the whole process so easy and seamless. Prompt service and a very courteous work ethic has made past campaigns and projects successful and enjoyable. We have worked with Ted on a wide variety of projects and he delivers fantastic work each time, from business cards to press ads to catalogues and digital assets, Ted can do it all. I Couldn’t recommend Ted more. 

Select SIP has been using Ted's services going on 24 months and he is our go-to man for the job. Ted responds quickly to our requirements and always delivers on time, to a very high standard.

He remains open to our sometimes-obscure requests, and he consistently wordsmiths a clear, punchy message for our material. Ted's great design skills enhance the messaging to ensure our target audience is delivered what we intend, all the while providing his service at a fair price.

Select SIP highly recommends Ted -  he’s a good fella who loves what he does, will work hard for his clients and this clearly shows in what he produces.

After nearly 20 years of many varied projects with Work of Art, I have always found Ted to be highly professional and a great asset to our business.

Ted always works to understand the end-goal of the project material, offering suggestions to enhance or even offer better value for our business.

I am very happy to endorse Ted Thompson and his Work of Art design business. Ted is old school reliable with a high level of skills and experience in design and print material. He is always very intuitive in helping me as client work up an appropriate design brief for each piece of work commissioned and never fails to impress me with the quality of his final product.
