Client testimonials
James Metsger | Lead Pastor, Christ Point Church
You consider yourself lucky if you can find a gifted designer that consistently captures in their work what you dream. Occasionally, you may find a designer that can deliver work in a timely manner. To find both is rare if not unheard of. At least, it was until we started working with TJ and Studio490. TJ consistently delivers excellent work in a timely manner—even reminding us of our deadlines! Who does that!? TJ does. It’s why we feel lucky to have him on our team and without reservation would recommend him to others who work with deadlines but desire excellent work.
Section 2: Their Challenge
What issue, challenge, or pain point did the client want you to address?
Since Christ Point has been with Studio490 for over 13 years, we have developed several websites, campaign and two rebrands all while growing their reach.
Why did they have this problem?
Christ Point wanted to rebrand themselves in 2018 and adjust their approach to marketing the church.
Was this a new problem or a pre-existing one?
Christ Point is always trying to improve their marketing strategy, but the rebrand was a new project.
Was it a result of market forces or changes within the industry?
The rebranding stemmed from what the new leadership had inherited and was looking to develop something fresh.
What were your client’s expected outcomes from working with a vendor to solve their stated problem?
Christ Point was looking to update its brand to something modern, reach new people, and increase how they communicated to the current members.
Why did they engage your organization to help?
Christ Point has been using Studio490 for 13+ years for all of their creative needs. It was natural that since we knew the team and their goals so well, Studio490 would help them rebrand them with a new vision.
