People say the nicest things.

Not saying we cried reading some of these, but… okay, maybe a little.

These kind words come from small business owners, nonprofit teams, and community dreamers we’ve had the joy of working with. Real people, real nice!

A friend and fellow business owner put me in contact with Marleen. This was truly an amazing experience. From Day 1 Marleen kept me on my toes, held me accountable to deadlines, keeping my project on track. Marleen took my vision and turned it into a website that was far better than I could have ever imagined. She listened carefully, was professional, was detailed oriented, demonstrated patience (eg. tolerated my nitpicking), applied her creative touch, and was a fantastic communicator (phone, email, zoom conversations) – Spot On! Marleen – You’re a rockstar in my books and I would highly recommend you to anyone. You go girl!

A short and sweet testimonial for Marleen, who essentially acted as my Campaign Manager (and moral support!). The look-and-feel was her magic, and it carried from the signage to the website to the FB page. She’s a highly talented miracle worker! Thanks Marleen!!

You ROCKED my world!

Marleen took the time to understand my business and who I am and then designed the perfect logo for my small business. She also set it up in different colors and configurations so that I could use it in various ways, which was extremely helpful. Thanks so much Marleen and crew!

I salute Marleen, Commander-in-Chief at Almostronaut Creative, for her guidance through the asteroid field of business card design. She answered all my questions with her signature matter-of-fact style, provided strong advice on trends and best practices, and she navigated me back to the flight path whenever I got distracted by my own personal preferences (yes, Shannon, pink is great, but have a look at this chart about colour connotations). Through our conversations, she came to understand my personal style, and I’m pretty sure she searched the edges of the universe to find the perfect graphic.

I am over the moon with the results.

Very creative with unique ideas.

Deb Schenk, Executive Director, Sooke Region Chamber of Commerce

Marleen was recommended to me as a Graphic Designer by a mutual good friend. We embarked together on creating an illustrated book from my manuscript. The whole process was quite magical! There were a lot of editing revisions that I still needed to do and this digital process went through very smoothly. Marleen came up with very creative solutions to format the writing with the pictures and to produce a postcard insert for each book! She also guided and organized the printing end of the project which turned out brilliantly!

I am very grateful to Marleen and would highly recommend her for any creative endeavour that requires an innovative designer!

Die Zusammenarbeit mit Marleen und ihrem Team von Almostronaut war für McNeill in Deutschland ein absoluter Glücksgriff. Ihre außergewöhnliche Mischung aus Authentizität, spritziger Kreativität und unfassbarer Schnelligkeit – wie eine Rakete – hat uns jeden Tag aufs Neue beeindruckt. Trotz der räumlichen Distanz nach Kanada entstand eine enge Verbundenheit und ein tiefes Vertrauen, das man nur bei absoluten Top-Profis findet. Ob täglicher Support oder große Marketingkampagnen: Alles wurde mit höchster Präzision und tiefer Leidenschaft umgesetzt. McNeill hätte sich keine besserne Partner für Marketing und Support wünschen können!
