Words from Clients

“Joe has been key to our success in the mail-order business. His creativity turned around an outdated and struggling company and brought us “respectability” through his design. I can always count on Joe for creative work and outstanding service. I’m comfortable putting a project in his hands and knowing all the details will be covered and our project will be delivered on time. From big projects like our catalog to small print ads or package designs, Joe has always done an outstanding job for us and has earned 100% of our design business as well as my recommendation to many other companies.”
—Bill Finck Jr., Finck Cigar Company 210-226-4191

 

“I have been working with Joe over the past 3 years on our internal newsletter to a select group of employees, and his ability to provide unique and timely product is priceless.”
—Kathleen Boucher, PAC Manager, Government and Industry Relations, USAA 210-498-6048


“I have run businesses in the high tech industry, retail food and now the Christian music business. Over the years, I have used graphic design firms and they were all quite good. However, none has been as responsive, as creative, or as results oriented—to get my business the results I need—as Joe Van Wyk.
Advertisements, product packaging design, logos, books and journals, website design, catalogs, mailers and literature—he can do it all. He is especially valuable to us with his expertise in the domain of mail order catalogs. His experience and skill set are incredible when it comes to designing, planning and launching an effective catalog.
Joe is a key member of our Good For The Soul Music team and he is a good part of the reason we are having great success.”

“I have known and worked with Joe Van Wyk during the past eighteen months. Joe’s creativity and design concepts are exceptional. He not only knows creative design and layout, but he understands the printing process and takes care to prepare layouts that work well on the printing presses. Additionally, Joe works diligently to keep his projects on schedule. He gets the job done on time and, of course, from a printing company’s view point, schedules are critical and we appreciate designers that work hard to help us meet our clients expectations.”
—Tom Bolerjack, The Press of Ohio 512-585-2268


“I have been working with Van Wyk Design for the last 4 years. We have worked on a number of projects that have turned out terrific. While working with very tight budgets and schedules Joe and his staff have excelled at staying within the budget and meeting deadlines.”

“Joe is an excellent graphic designer, who is not only creative and extremely talented, but I feel he personally cares about helping a client achieve his marketing goals. In addition, he works hard to meet client deadlines promptly. I have been very satisfied with the marketing materials he designed for me. In short, he is a true professional.”

“My name is David Kauffman and I am the founder of Good For The Soul Music, a record company and print publisher in San Antonio, Texas.
Joe has helped us with design, layout, color, feel, look, and he has done so with our mission in mind, our brand in mind. Joe is a significant part of our team, not only from a design standpoint, but from an understanding point-of-view. Joe knows how to see through the eyes of a client and get into their world in ways that many artists can’t.
That simple fact, that he lives and breathes our brand as much as we do is what makes him invaluable, and such a great partner to work with.”
—David Kauffman, Founder, Good For The Soul Music, LC 210-733-5003


“Joe worked with our firm to create trial graphics in several lawsuits involving complex business issues. He captured exactly what we were looking for, and created compelling demonstrative exhibits that were tremendously useful in both hearings and during trial. Each exhibit told a story and made it easy for both the Judge and the Jury to “see” what our case was about. He was willing to work with us to create a team that incorporated several design professionals, plus our trial team. The result was cost effective, and made a tremendous difference in our cases.”
—David Kinder, Akin, Gump Attorneys at Law 210-281-7087


“Working with Joe to convert his well designed web site was a pleasure. Not only was the site well laid out, logical, and easy to navigate, it a straightforward process to convert it to a dynamically served online publication. Joe “gets it” when it comes to design, layout, and the whole process of internet publications and how it should reflect and interact with traditional media.”
—Ron McElfresh, The McStar Group 808-944-6744
