I needed some help with our website so I asked a marketing savvy friend for a recommendation. That's how I was introduced to Nicole. After an introductory call, I knew I was in good hands. Nicole graciously (and quickly!) took on all the tasks that I needed help with. I was able to launch our site on time. Without her, that just would not have happened. She's super responsive and knows her stuff. It's been a top notch experience working with her and her team. I highly recommend them. Looking forward to a long working relationship with them!

I hired Smack Happy Design for my website. The process was organized, the communication was strong, they were flexible with my payment structure and the continued support that I have received since launch has been great. I am thoroughly pleased with my end product and would highly recommend!

Nicole and her team continue to be amazing. They did a bang up job getting our site put together and it has been running like a top ever since. A huge help was that she helped educate us how to use our site so we're not in a situation that we constantly need help. Yet, she continues to be really quick to respond when occasional questions pop up. I do not hesitate to recommend SHD to my friends and clients!

As we reflect on the experience of working with the team at Smack Happy Design, a number of things come to mind. We were very happy with their attentiveness, how they listened to what they were saying and tried to implement it, and how their team was very knowledgeable in our design of the website and customer service. We are not always easy to deal with and really appreciate how they took care of us. Our biggest takeaways from this are the fact that we don’t feel the relationship is over, we want to continue our relationship and we LOVE THE WEBSITE. Key Highlights 10/10 - Their customer service was “off the charts.” Every meeting we had was super productive and we felt like they guided us throughout the whole process, with lots of explanations. We LOVE the website! What’s more, is that our industry is a bit challenging. So, having an amazing website that enables people to leave our website with the feeling that we are legitimate and inspiring gives us confidence that people truly want to actively participate with us. We now feel more professional about hiring new team members and having the ability to share what we’re all about with our audience. One thing that has transformed for us from the beginning of this project was that we went from having the need for a website to now we need to begin promoting it. Our friends are truly impressed. It feels official that we’re finally in business again.

What I like best about working with the SHD Team is that they never do what I tell them to do. Instead, I get thoughtful questions to the heart of what I am after along with multiple paths to achieve the target result with what I need to think about in order to choose between them. The result has been a significant upscaling of my internet presence, improved response rates (the fastest in-bound call from someone who would otherwise never have thought to call came within seconds of a recent post). SHD really cares about what they do…and about me and what I do. It’s a partnership. I have never had anyone get into my head, and so effectively put into language audiences can understand, what it is I have to share. I recommend the entire SHD Team without reservation.

It’s been great working with Danielle at Smack Happy Design, a boutique Web design firm. She is very responsive to site update requests and knowledgeable about a variety of Web site platforms as well as incorporating and validating analytics to ensure we can track my client’s visitor behavior on their Web pages, or identify broken links early on if/when that ever happens. I highly recommend Smack Happy Design!

Working with John at Smack Happy has been wonderful. Not only are they able to work within your budget, the customer service and quality is second to none. I highly recommend working with John, he's a gem who realizes the importance of good customer service and communication!

I am so pleased with the level of professionalism from John. His communication and professionalism are truly rare during a time that people seem to have lost the art of caring. The quality of work provided by Smack Happy has me sending all of my fellow businesses to them for their websites.

I have a small business in San Francisco and an even smaller budget for social media and website help. I have been working with Danielle at SmackHappy for a few months - what a great experience! She is responsive, has great ideas, initiates smart updates to my social media accounts and is fun to speak with! Thanks Danielle! I highly recommend working with SmackHappy!

I'm self employed and had been wanting assistance with my website maintenance and marketing needs. Then I heard about Smack Happy Design from a trusted colleague. I saw what they did for her and was impressed. So I decided to work with them and I am oh so happy I did! I think the big selling point was the option to have them on retainer. That felt very good and easy for me. Especially since I was able to choose between 3 levels of service that would work the best for my business and financial needs. This area of my business is definitely not my forte. I love that these trusted experts are always on top of my website and are quick with creative marketing. I feel as if they always have my back. And I feel as I'm just as important as all their other clients. Let me tell you that can mean the world for someone with a small business. Smack Happy Design is very professional, super efficient and quite talented! What more could a solo - entrepreneur ask for? Do yourself a favor and hire them. I wish I had done it sooner.

Anyone can launch an off-the-shelf website, but it takes creativity and business experience to create an effective and engaging website. Nicole uses her professional arts and business backgrounds to design unique websites and marketing materials that stand out. And, Danielle, her project manager, made sure that our lingering yearning for a better website turned into a reality.

These days, everyone thinks they can make a website, take a picture, or write a story. But, it takes a team like Smack Happy to bring unique creativity and a strong business sense to your website and, ideally, all of your marketing materials. Nicole understands the business value of design and functionality, and delivers an engaging product. And, Danielle as project manager was invaluable; without her we'd still be sitting around wishing we were done.

Smack happy is a boutique talented graphic design team. Nicole is creative, thoughtful and professional. She will take time to work with you in creating the vision you want. Nicole and her team can help with print, web site, and other forms of communications. If you're in the market for an awesome graphic design team, look no further, you've found it!

I work for a pharmaceutical company who hired Smack Happy to redesign one of our product websites, and I could not be more happy with the work they did! Danielle was absolutely amazing throughout the whole process. She and her team were extremely knowledgeable, attentive and patient with us. Smack Happy kept us on track and provided weekly updates and reminders to make sure the project went as smoothly as possible. In the end we got the exact website we wanted. The team at Smack Happy went above and beyond my expectations and I hope I have the chance to work with them again in the future!

It's totally cliché, but if I could give this team six stars, I absolutely would! Nicole and Danielle were so kind, attentive to our needs, level-headed, and above all really, REALLY good at their jobs. They were very easy to communicate with and always available for any questions or to provide clarification. I was a one-woman team in assembling the content for our new website, and every time we encountered a delay the Smack Happy team was patient and helpful and provided resources for me to help push the project forward. Seriously cannot recommend this team enough!! (Not to mention it's even better supporting a local women-owned business!!)

Nicole of Smack Happy Design took my notes and created a web site for me that has drawn compliments from all those with whom I shared it. It is easy to get around, user friendly and best of all she did not create stress in a non-techie like me. And there were no $$$ surprises. I am happy to recommend her work/

As a professional organizer and interior designer I needed a new and improved website and newsletter. I hired Smack Happy because of Nicole Hanusek's expertise and calm & positive attitude. When I was introduced to her associate, Danielle Iera, I felt like I'd won the lottery. Danielle's technical and creative abilities are outstanding. I was blown away by these two women! They're professional, very patient, easy to work with, collaborative, creative, did I say patient? I especially liked how they educated me throughout the project. I could ask dumb questions without feeling dumb. Their suggestions enhanced my website from an esthetic and technical standpoint. What they produced out shined my previous website because it was clearly organized and beautiful to look at. I'm moving into my next chapter, as a business owner, with more confidence because of these two talented women.

The Team of Smack Happy is fabulous. They listen, communicate and they do the work. I could not be happier with what they have done for me. And they make it look so simple! thanks for the good work.

Smack Happy made me a gorgeous website! I brought them some idea's and they really took off with them to create my dream website. They are super easy to work with and very accommodating. They are also very in the know about all the modern design and SEO techniques. I would highly recommend them.

It's been great working with Nicole and Smack Happy. I initially met her shortly after buying my business. We weren't able to work together at that time, but I was so impressed with her that I kept her in mind. When it was time to find someone to handle my site maintenance and social media, I returned to Smack Happy. And I have not been disappointed. Nicole and her team have been great. They quickly understood my needs during our initial meeting. We were able to formulate a great game plan that also had the flexibility for future additional work. Their communication has been fantastic--it's like having their team on-call. I don't hesitate recommending Nicole and Smack Happy.

I can't rave about Nicole enough. A few careers ago, I was fortunate to work with some amazing engineers and designers in managing multi-million dollar web projects. So I understand the challenges of finding a great, smart, empathetic, responsive web developer....who also happens to be a great designer. She is a needle in a haystack. Hire Nicole and look no further. (More soon, when I can rave about our expanded website).

What a fantastic experience. Thank you Smack Happy for your wonderful work. Our new website was worth every penny. It is exactly what we wanted. You kept us on track with subtle kicks in the butt to keep the project moving and with a beautiful finish. Do you have an outdated website or not one at all? Maybe you don't know where to start? Make an appointment to speak with Smack Happy Design. They will take you though the process and make it easy for you. With the constantly updated and new regulations on websites and business, you will want to know that your web design team is in the *know*. I can confidently say that Smack Happy is up to date and will make sure your new site is too.

Well, first of all, I found Smack Happy on Yelp. Which is important to me to see the other customer reviews. There are so many design firms out there that it's hard to cut through the clutter. A Google search of "website design San Francisco" would yield too many results so I would need to rely on yelp or a personal reference, and even a personal reference would need to be vetted in some way. Smack Happy stood out on Yelp because it seems like there was a lot of positive feedback, but most important to me you seemed to be one of the only graphic design firms that worked on their own brand and image. Most other companies have a horrible webpage, and they seem to have worked on theirs as much as they would for your best client. For me, that really said that they cared about what you do. The old adage of "The Cobbler's Children have no shoes" seemed like a cop out for most of the other companies not to do well for themselves what they claim to do well for others. The other thing that stood out once I was on your website was their actual work you had done for other clients. The designs were bold, playful, and had touches of uniqueness that personalized every site that I saw. I was happy that every site didn't look like a recycled template that you had used and just plugged in info for every new client. Their work is really good and there were only a few companies at theirr level that do work as well as you. I actually got 2 other quotes after meeting with Nicole and both were similarly priced. During the shopping phase the communication with Nicole was easy, warm, and energetic. The meetings in her office were great and she is such a kind person who is really invested in the work that she does for each client and that's apparent. She is also ultra busy (from briefly glancing at her calendar) so I was interested to see what working with her team would be like. Becka, was great to work with and I loved that we had someone nudging us to get things done, but in a positive way (THANK YOU!) Danielle was great too, we were a bit concerned at first because it seemed like she didn't get how we wanted the copy to go, but I expressed that to Nicole and by the next meeting things were on track and the copy we received from that point on was great. As far as the design team is concerned, we worked with Marianne for a while who was great, but then my business partner took over as the lead on the project as we had an internal staffing change that took me away from being as active on the website. Working with the team overall, we were very happy, and I was happy to see that we also got a lot of that personalization at the end of the day in our website, however, I wish they would have pushed the small customized touches more and given us your artistic opinion more often. Sometimes, it felt like it was an inconvenience for us to push the customization agenda. All in all, your polished image as a company and all the time that Nicole spends engaging really gives them guys an active, eager, and willing attitude and the work speaks for itself. Smack Happy Designs rocked for us and I would recommend you guys in a second. To the whole team...Thank you for everything!!!

Smack Happy is love. Smack Happy is lyfe. I first hired Nicole to help me after a different web designer attempted to help me make my website mobile friendly (they attempted to move me to their reseller platform that would have lost me my domain name in the process - not professional). Nicole not only gave me a custom template that closely matched my old website's colors, but improved upon the look and feel in the process, and all while retaining my website URL. I've since hired Smack Happy to help with business card and brochure designs, as well as several landing pages for Facebook ad campaigns. All of their quality has been top-notch. TL;DR - Smack Happy is love. Smack Happy is lyfe.

We're thrilled with the work Nicole and Smack Happy does for our firm. Our website constantly needs updates. Before we worked with her, on a semi regular basis, qualified leads wouldn't make it to our Inbox, meaning the loss of $10,000s worth of business. Her team and her then redesigned our site. Cost effective, very professional, tasteful design esthetic, and surprisingly quick turnaround. We recommend them.
