I’ve worked with 1o8 on two projects... a full website and collateral rebrand, and a CPG eCommerce design build, and both were exceptional experiences. Their team combines sharp strategy with creative execution and stays collaborative from concept to launch. Every deliverable was cohesive, thoughtful, and built to perform.

I was a prospective client and even exchanged emails, and had a brief phone meeting with this agency. After sharing my idea, and a little information about our marketing goals; the owner became unresponsive. This is a bad sign as communication is key when establishing a new business relationship—I would not recommend.
