The most competent designer I have ever used....
The most competent designer I have ever used. He was methodical at implementing as directed as well as when given creative freedom. As a startup, he designed my entire initial d2c website. What started off with unrefined, scattered ideas, he helped not only synthesize into useable elements, but in a way that ensured each was optimized for it’s particular use, based on data.

We started working with Loren in a serious compression period for our marketing team. At the time, we were in the middle of developing a new print and digital campaign for our brand, and we had to cut ties with our existing agency. Loren stepped in, quickly understood our goals and the direction we wanted to go, and developed a full campaign our entire company could get behind in a very quick timeline. Since then, we have continued to work with him where he has developed an entire visual brand identity for us that has been the backbone of all our marketing materials and campaigns. He has a great understanding of marketing strategy and has a fantastic design eye that has been so valuable to our team and company. I am always so impressed with Loren’s work, and I would highly recommend him. He’s a game changer!

...a new logo and website we are extremely proud of.
Loren is very professional, a true artist at his craft as well as a nice guy. My team and I not only enjoyed the process but ended up with a new logo and website we are extremely proud of.

...he executes with a set of values and disciplines that are refreshing to his craft!!
Loren has an acute understanding of how ‘brand’ really works inside and outside the business community. His design instincts are thoughtful and strong, while always remaining open to feedback and direction from the most nuanced and complex client demands. We’ve also loved Loren’s consistent and productive attitude that he brings to projects of any size; as he executes with a set of values and disciplines that are refreshing to his craft!! Loren will always be invited to participate in our marketing initiatives going forward!!

Strategic vision, willing attitude, ability to use feedback to improve design, and genuinely enjoyable person to collaborate with.
I’ve enjoyed working with Loren on a range of creative projects and trust his ability to execute on logo and brand identity, signage, tradeshow, direct mail, and web design projects. I’ve hired him to help advance the brand strategy for clients in the fitness, travel, and outdoor manufacturing verticals and trust him to bring forward ideas and solutions that contribute to a cohesive brand system. You could use him for a one-off project but why not make a greater investment and achieve a greater vision by hiring him to shape a bigger brand design story? I’ve worked side-by-side with Loren in an office setting and remotely and achieved the same quality result. My top reasons for hiring Loren: Strategic vision, willing attitude, ability to use feedback to improve design, and genuinely enjoyable person to collaborate with.

Basically, without him, we would not have had a successful debut.
Wow, am I glad to have discovered Loren Polster! Working with Loren on the our event was a blessing. He created more than just handouts and a website for our event. He created a beautifully laid out piece of art that captured our vision for our debut cycling event. Loren’s creativity (brilliant!) and consistency in each of the project’s promotional materials was nothing short of a stroke of genius. Not only did he provide us with beautiful work, he gave us a boost of confidence in organizing our event. Basically, without him, we would not have had a successful debut.

...you felt like he genuinely cared about the team and about our success.
I worked with Loren for almost a year. He was brought on as a Graphic Designer, but ended up partnering with me on all things marketing. He was the vehicle behind our successful rebrand, always pushing the boundaries of what we thought was possible by helping us create beautiful materials. Loren ended up becoming an integral part of the Bond Collective marketing team. He went above and beyond of what was expected of him. What I loved most about working with Loren is that you felt like he genuinely cared about the team and about our success. Loren inspires everyone around him due to his dedication and passion for every project he touches. I cannot recommend Loren highly enough.

A fantastically creative talent, hard worker and great communicator....
Loren is a fantastically creative talent, hard worker and great communicator. He’s self-motivated with no ego. He would be a phenomenal addition to any creative team and will make the team stronger by talent and communication style. I can give him a direction and he runs with it, coming back with some great ideas. He takes feedback graciously, and usually brings me back something better than I originally hoped for.

I highly recommend Loren for your website needs and am more than willing to answer any questions about our project.
I commenced working with Loren in the late fall of 2014 to re-create four websites for our lodging businesses on the Oregon Coast. My partners and I are thrilled with the results and feel that the websites present our properties in a beautifully aesthetic manner where navigation throughout the website is seamless. Loren’s initial proposal conveyed exactly what he would deliver in a clean simple manner and he delivered the products on budget and before the deadlines. Loren allowed us plenty of time to review the sites prior to going live. Transferring the websites to the live Internet went very smoothly and there have been only a very few minor website edits after the live Internet debut – Loren made these edits immediately upon our requests. I highly recommend Loren for your website needs and am more than willing to answer any questions about our project and Loren’s efforts. Plus, he is just a nice guy! See less
