Yoon Heo, Team MAD fight team manager

Marketing Materials for Team MAD

Agnieszka from AK Niche Design Solutions was our team's marketing designer. She always came up with witty ideas and created her own designs that I could use for my gym interior and social network. Especially, she showed excellent marketing design work when we promoted a fight show.

Agnieszka mainly created promotional images and fight cards, the quality of these images were superior compared to other fight shows in the nation. Fighters loved it, audiences loved it. I confidently can say Agnieszka took the image of our gym and fight show to the next level.

Profile picture of Agnieszka Kowalska, owner at AK Niche Design Solutions

Brand Refresh for Evolve Kickboxing

Before working with AK Niche Design Solutions, I had a logo that I felt didn't accurately represent my business. It was frustrating because I knew what I wanted to express through my logo and branding but didn't know how to make it real.

Working with AK Niche Design Solutions, I felt heard and confident that my brand's needs were put first. AK Niche Design Solutions created a logo that expressed my brand to potential customers, not just a cool piece of design. I was included in the design process throughout which made me feel in control and reassured that we were heading in the right direction every step of the way.

I knew that working with AK Niche Design Solutions was the right choice early in the process when, a few days after a discovery and consultation session, the owner, Agnieszka, presented me with StyleScape boards based on our initial conversation. She had accurately translated what was said into a visual board! There was nothing even really designed yet at that stage, but I already felt that she got me, and she got my business.

Now I feel relieved that I have a logo I can be proud of. The experience made me excited about my brand and excited that I have someone to turn to for future projects.

Trey Goff, Aide de Camp to the CEO

Graphic and Web Design for NeWay Capital LLC

When I began searching for a graphic designer for our company, I needed someone who was responsible, available, creative, and professional, with rapid response and turnaround times. I was aware that this would probably be hard to find, but set out to do so anyways.

AK Niche Design Solutions provided all of that and more.

Our firm can be a bit demanding and hard to work with, yet Agnieszka has taken all requests with grace and aplomb, always working diligently within the sometimes absurd timelines we ask of her.

I cannot recommend AK Niche Design Solutions highly enough and look forward to continuing to work with Agnieszka in the future.
