We had the pleasure of working with the team at Swank when we decided to refresh our 75 year old brand. It felt like a massive undertaking, but they helped guide us throughout the entire process, ensuring we were happy every step of the way. We worked mainly with Marta, Manuel, and Danielle and they were always in constant contact, checking in, and communicating effectively. They were receptive to our feedback and incorporating our ideas, helping to bring our vision to life. Swank is a highly professional team, offering fairly priced services, while delivering a job well done. As we enter the final phase of the journey, we cannot say enough good things about the team at Swank and are so happy we chose them to help elevate our brand.
