Josh Shipp is an empire of impact. I recently spoke to his audience of hopeful speakers and educators. I drew underwear and Yoda with a fat black pen. They’ll likely never forget it.
Chase Reeves is the most offensive & inappropriate speaker you could ever put on your stage. But it’s for that reason that he’s a breath of fresh air. Between NSFW asides, he’ll blow your mind with acute insight on doing and selling work that matters.” ~ JOSH SHIPP, Award Winning Entrepreneur & Founder of YSU
An action oriented, "quit bitching and make the thing" kind of event. I helped them understand how understanding their audience changes everything. Also, unicycles.
Chase is what every event organizer dreams of when imagining their perfect speaker. He’s funny, engaging, highly energetic, but all the while bringing some very thoughtful and perfectly on-target content to the audience. And it’s no accident, he spent quite a bit of time with me figuring out exactly who would be attending our event, and where they were at. Then, he crafted a perfect message to them that inspired them. People raved about him, and for good reason. Now I have to figure out how to have another event so I can have him speak again...” ~ JASON GLASPEY, Founder Tiny Startup Camp and a whole mess of other cool stuff
So good we had to do it twice. The first is my background as a creative, the second my background in faith and spirituality (and how they impact our work). These are good conversations.

Steve Kamb of Nerd Fitness approached me to design his (OMFG massive!) site when he saw Paid to Exist and ThinkTraffic. We reached into our childhoods and brought forth an epic quest.
Story, branding, strategy, color, design, copywriting, front-end development, one week and pilsners.
Working with Chase has been a great (and oftentimes hilarious) experience. I can honestly say I've never had more fun or laughed as much when working with a partner than I did with him; fortunately, that fun work led to a phenomenally designed website that blew my expectations out of the water. Hopefully we get a chance to work again on another project soon. Cracker honky.” — Steve Kamb, Founder of Nerd Fitness

Two weeks ago I was kind of goalless and strolling around with this blog idea but zero action. I joined Fizzle and today I am apart of awesome mastermind group, I'm accountable and really have a super plan to taking over the WORLD!” — Mateusz
If you haven't checked out Fizzle, you're missing out. It's like leveling up your business by going to a party. Who said business training had to be boring anyway?” — Jonathan Mead
Been a member since Thursday and have already clarified the purpose of my blog, started to hone in on the audience for the blogs audience, understood what one of the fatal flaws of my previous projects have been, and made some Fizzle friends who I can help along their path and who are helping me as well.” — Tim
In which I share a bit about my design ethos. It has more to do with Yoda and Middle Earth than it does with Photoshop and drop-shadow.
Corbett and Chase have not only produced a great site, they have done a service to the WordPress community by demonstrating what is possible... The more WordPress designers like [Chase] in the world, the better.” Tom Ewer, Manage WP

I'm a big fan of Chase Reeves' work. He is single-handedly changing how blogs work, look and feel.” Janelle Allen, The Grand Life
These guys wanted to take their business to the next level. They needed a trusty, rusty, earnest and hearty look, to create a brand few (if any) bloggers have attempted. I harnessed my mania and went to work. The work was worky. The work worked.
Strategy, story, gentlemanly advice, design, color, texture, copywriting, development, implementation, and a good deal of Bin & Jitters.
Chase is one of the most alarming people I’ve ever worked with. The problem is, he doesn’t know when to stop. He keeps surpassing all of your expectations, over and over (in the best way). It will be hard to work with anyone else after this.” Jonathan Mead, site owner/operator
Is Chase Reeves the hottest designer out there right now?
Yep. He is. He doesn’t know how to dress himself, but he sure knows how to dress up a website.” Derek Halpern, July 12, 2012

It’s here & it’s explosive...” Jenysha Polk, July 12, 2012
Unbelievable. You guys nailed it. Big time congrats — looking forward to the journey ahead.” Brett Henley, July 12, 2012

@jonathanmead Redesign is hot, man. Great work. Also, looks sooo Portland. :)” Dusti Arab, July 12, 2012

A casual sit-down with the proprietor of ThinkTraffic.net. He’s a real gentleman.
Think Traffic was completely redesigned less than two months ago. Today we're introducing our very talented designer and friend, Chase Reeves. We're also going to share some results about how the new design is helping Think Traffic grow faster than ever.” Corbett Barr, Think Traffic
A close collaboration to bring the brand, messaging, and story up to “pro” status. These guys want to be a market leader. Now they look like one. It’s one of my favorite things to be a part of: bringing the substance of the experience up to the quality of the content.
Consulting, branding, story, strategy, color, design, copywriting, development, implementation, and a good deal of Bulleit Rye.
Floored by this killer Thesis design. Responsive with a rockin' color palette.” — Chris Pearson (@pearsonified) May 30, 2012

My buddy @CorbettBarr just unleashed a super polished new design for Think Traffic. Really neat.” — Adam Baker (@ManVsDebt) May 30, 2012
Just going through this right now, and I’ve got to say that I love some of the attention to detail.” — Derek Halpern May 29, 2012
This absolutely just blew my mind. You guys took things to a completely different level. Words can’t describe it - seriously. Hat’s off. With how I feel right now, I can’t imagine how fired up you guys are. Let the celebration begin... Here's to raising the bar!” — Scott Dinsmore May 29, 2012
Dude... LOVE IT. That’s it. I’m still catching my breath!” — Chris C. Ducker May 30, 2012
This just might very well be the best blog redesign I've ever seen. Huge congrats @CorbettBarr!” — Juha Liikala (@juhaliikala) May 30, 2012
I’ll be the contrarian. I don’t like it so much. It seems like you’ve made changes similar to what Google has been doing. Having said that, I still wish you much success with the changes.” — Shlomo May 29, 2012. Editor's Note: This was too good not to include! My bad, Shlomo!
These phenomenal women needed a brand to move them forward, a welcoming and uncluttered site, and some expert help with lead generation. I did my best, it turned out great.
Branding, strategy, color, design, copywriting, development, implementation, and a good deal of Tinto de Veraño.
A personal site for me to off-gas and write things I hope my future self will find... things that will help me remember what matters about work (and what doesn't).
Business, writing, design, article finding, target audiencing, logo, story, video, lighting, acting and a few chilled glasses.
Father Apprentice is an online community of new and used dads who want to make the most of fatherhood. It's a site I started (mostly because I'm so naturally bad at dadding... and want to do it really well).
Business, writing, design, target audiencing, logo, story, video, lighting, acting and a good deal of Romeo y Julietas.
