Kris brought style and zest to my website and gave my message clarity and focus through clean design. I finally have a website that I’m proud to direct potential clients to — one that adds credibility to my business. Kris listened to my needs and brought a sense of calm through a process that can often feel daunting and overwhelming. She made it feel fun and easy. —Emily Zahniser, Founder, EZ Communications

I was stuck. For months I tried to come up with a new business name and logo but couldn’t decide on anything. Working with Kris at Red Door was such a simple and easy process. She didn’t force generic, cookie cutter designs on us. Everything was custom and strategic. We chose to work with Kris because of her clear communication and years of experience. She actually listened to what we needed. As for the finished product, people love it, I love it! And it is such a relief to have this project completed. Plus, working with Red Door gave me confidence in growing our business.

I hired Red Door to build our website and re-fresh our branding to reflect the growth our business made in a 10 year period. As a business owner, being “too close” to my own business was my biggest challenge. It was critical I gain an outside perspective to help my website communicate the value we bring to our customers. Kris took the time to listen and understand our goal of showcasing the company’s expertise while maintaining an approachable and personal feel. Kris guided us with clarity every step of the way. We went from having an outdated website that didn’t reflect our expertise and was impossible to update to a new current website that receives continual compliments! Kris is a consummate professional with a process that makes everything feel easy! The way she communicated and gathered information stands out as an incredible example that I aspire to replicate in my business. Having a trusted advisor in Kris feels like a burden has been lifted from my shoulders! I have peace of mind knowing we have built an ongoing trusting relationship. I recommend Red Door Designs to anyone who is ready to have a website that works. — Stephen Colvin, East Portland Sash

My website was very outdated and I was "too close" to my business to communicate about it clearly. Kris really understands the psychology behind what motivates your clients and weaves that strategy into the web design. If you are looking for a collaborative, organized and creative partner, I would highly recommend Red Door Designs. Thank you so much!!

Kris is an astute, strategic and nimble designer. But it’s her level of service, empathy, and willingness to understand the problem she’s solving that makes her stand out from the rest. Her work exceeded all my expectations. Gabe Goldberg, Founder, Hone Marketing

Our website was dated and bland, our designer was not responsive when we needed updates made and overall website design was not conveying our passion or expertise. The whole thing made me want to bang my head against a wall in frustration. After working with Kris, our site now feels ALIVE! It’s dynamic, conveying hope and possibility. I feel proud showing off our website because it honestly depicts the depth and breadth of what we do, yet with a simplicity that is appealing to consumers on all levels. Kris really listened to what I was needing and hoping for in our website. I got to talk about how great my business is and she translated it perfectly into an informative and dynamic website. The process was surprisingly fun and easy! I love knowing I have an ongoing partner I feel comfortable with and can rely on. —Julie Dromgoole, Director of Operations, PRA

I had this very foggy vision for what I wanted KFE's branding and website to look like. I was really struggling to convert that vision into a well designed, coherent branding strategy that I could use to update our look and feel. Kris took my foggy vision and turned it into reality. It was such a relief. She hit the nail on the head and has really turned things around for us. Kris did a great job with the branding guide. Everything we do that's outward facing goes through our branding guide to make sure that the look and feel is consistent. Time is your most valuable resource. Stop wasting time trying to do this on your own. Let Kris guide you through her process and get the brand strategy that you need and deserve.
