Marketing Testimonials

As a marketing consultant, I have worked with excellent clients, from start-ups to Fortune 200s. Here is what a few of them have said:

We consider Sinard a partner and important contributor to our company’s continued growth.

—Gina Chavez, Creative Water Solutions

As a result of working with Craig, we’ve had to add staff to help with our increased business. We can’t recommend his help enough.

—Matt Olson, Twin City Filter Service

His expertise guided us in identifying our own brand awareness and how best to tell the marketplace our story.

—Armen Minasian, Minasian Rug Company

“We began working with Craig on a project-by-project basis; website, photography, etc. After a year or so we agreed to take him on as a hourly-part-time CMO. He presented us a budget, just as we would expect from an employee, and he stuck to that budget.

Craig took us to a whole new level, studying us in a way we had never studied ourselves. He’s given voice to our story, and we look forward to having him work as our Part-Time CMO for years to come.”

—Matt Olsen
Twin City Filter Service

“As a start-up, we needed an agency that was flexible, responsive and experienced in building a brand from the ground up. We consider Sinard a partner and important contributor to our company’s continued growth.”

—Gina Chavez
Creative Water Solutions

“Sinard’s helped communicate a lot better with our clients. The response we get request from the people out there seeing that video… we get requests from people all the time to use that video in their presentations, on their websites.

We’ve worked with Sinard for 15 years now, and heartily recommend them. We consider them a partner in our process and look forward to continuing our long relationship with them.”

—Jesse Roitenberg
Stratasys

“Probably the best give-away at a trade show that I have ever seen. We were able to initiate conversation with anyone in the aisle by a casual boast of ‘we have the answer to any question that you might ask’ followed by ‘would you like to know if you are going to make more money next year?’

At that point we had them.”

—Richard Higby
Arista Labs

“We first hired Sinard to create our marketing videos. They raised our game immediately, and over the years they offered us not only videos, but photography and design for our catalog.

Most impressive was when Sinard came in and ‘invented’ a complete system to capture a huge number of high-quality photographs of as many of our new models as we could throw at them, each with dozens of kids swinging, enjoying themselves.

We’ve worked with Sinard for 15 years and recommend him to anyone except our competitors.”

—Greg Foster
Rainbow Play Systems

“I have worked with Craig Sinard in his many capacities as a director, producer and creative consultant. . . I have found his work style to be very up front and honest. He will always make sure his client objectives are clearly identified and defined. He seems to be genuinely interested and dedicated in making the production its creative best and always considerate of the budget – bottom line. He appreciates the no surprises philosophy as much as his clients!”

—Bruce Walwark
Target Stores

“Craig Sinard has been a tremendous asset to Minasian Rug Company. I consider Craig to be a friend and a trusted advisor.

His expertise guided us in identifying our own brand awareness and how best to tell the marketplace our story.

Craig also showed us the strengths and weaknesses of our competition as revealed by their websites, which helped us understand our position in the market vis-a-vis our competition. He taught us to appreciate our differences, our history, our unique experiences and skillsets.

Craig orchestrated the revision of our website from aesthetics to functionality, photography and SEO.

I highly recommend Craig!”

—Armen Minasian
Minasian Rug Company

“Thank you for being willing to work within our limited budget. From the video edits I’ve seen, it is a well done, good quality product. We couldn’t have had this level of quality without Sinard’s expertise. Overall, this was a productive and enjoyable working relationship.

Thank you for a good experience and a quality product.”

—Kate Southwick
Metro State University

“We’ve received rave reviews! Thank you. ”

—Mimi Larson
United Way of the Twin Cities

We can’t recommend his help enough.”
