Testimonials
It is an absolute pleasure working with Martlè. I say 'working' because the relationship didn't simple end when our site went live. A website is not a static project, it continually needs tweaking and Martle has supported us all the way. Having a strong web presence is critical for any company who is serious about branding. For Backsberg, Martlè has been key in establishing what I think is a strong presence on the web. In looking for a web design company I found companies that were very strong at design, as well as those who were great on the functionality front, but not many that struck a balance between those two elements. I believe Martlè strikes that balance extremely well and my money has been well spent.
Simon Back - Backsberg Wine Estate (Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa)
We wish to thank Martle for developing our website in a very professional manner. From the first day that our new website went live we had a very good response from clients. We can do live bookings and within the first 5 days 3 bookings came in on the new site. It’s far better than our previous website. Our entire request in developing the site was handled immediately and without any problems. Martle you are the best!!!
Helen de Beer - OPIKOPI Guest House (Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa)
Martlè has developed our web-site from scratch, and it was a pleasure to communicate with her. One keeps bouncing into all kind of problems, and Martlè time and again has helped us as soon as we asked for it. We would warmly recommend anybody to do business with martle.
Daan van Leeuwen Boomkamp - De Leeuwenhof Guesthouse (Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa)
FULL MARKS to Martle and Aqua IT. What a pleasure to deal with a person of such high standards. Martle showed creativity and understanding in building our website. I also tried a few different website designers prior to this - and I WOULDN'T GO BACK to anyone else.
Dave Lasker - Owner - I Sandler + Co cc (Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa)
I showed the site to other International School Directors here at the conference (Boston, USA) ... and needless to say they where very, very impressed. There are two avenues that they really liked:
- Your work!! of course, it speaks for itself !!!
- The whole idea of the "Theme for the year" and how it changes each year. They have never seen anything like it. Just to let you know we are the only school that does that.
Wow! Lot's of work --- and one of the best web sites of all the schools here! Thanks for all of your hard work and support. Our website is "ready to roar!"
Jeff Trudeau - Principal - Escuela Las Morochas (Ciudad Ojeda, Venezuela)
Very very impressive. Baie dankie hiervoor. Ek dink dis letterlik ‘n spieël-beeld waarvoor ons staan en wie ons is.
Mauritius du Toit - Marketing and Exports - Linton Park Wines (Wellington, Western Cape, South Africa)
Thank you, thank you, thank you. It's up and running. Really appreciate all your work and I think it looks amazing. It was super working with you and I hope you get down to Cape Town sometime so we can meet.
Michelle Mazurkiewicz - Wine Valley Horse Trails (Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa)
Once again thank you for such a beautiful website. Michelle is over the moon with it, and I am very impressed with how it has turned out, and also by your professionalism. We probably will bug you every now and then with idiotic questions, but once again many thanks.
Gavin Mey - Wine Valley Horse Trails (Paarl, Western Cape, South Africa)
I just want to say THANK YOU for all the extra work you did on my website! Its been wonderful sharing ideas with you and your helpfulness and willingness to go the extra mile to help me get things setup correctly is of high value to me.
I know we will stay in touch with future things that I might add to the site, but just thought I will share my thanks with you now.
Hanel de Wet - Owner, In the Wild (Pretoria, Gauteng, South Africa)
After a very costly and drawn out experience with a top web site designer who could not grasp what I wanted after so many meetings, I was quite wary to try another designer. But what an amazing and professional lady Martlè is. It took only ONE phonecall and she had it down pat - the look, the feel of our chidren's training website. Within days it was done. She definitely has flare and is very creative. It was a pleasure to do business with her, as she is friendly, helpful and very accommodating. Any queries are answered immediately. Your business can only thrive with the service we are getting.
Zani Kunz - CEO, Children's Eco Training (Hoedspruit, Limpopo Province, South Africa)
From the very first telephone call with Martlè, I knew that my web-site design was in safe hands. She asked very smart questions to ascertain the creative look and feel that fitted my business and worked imaginatively to fit my text and photographs with other images. Although we are based a continent apart, we worked together via e-mail and the occasional telephone call to produce (speedily and cost-effectively) a web-site that I am very pleased with.
Martle’s professional, cheerful, and reassuring approach means that I would heartily recommend working with her.’
Anna McQuaid - Owner, Consularia Limited (London, United Kingdom)
"My first website experience with a local Webmaster was a costly, very tedious and time-consuming endeavour. We experienced a zero ROI and large scale copying of designs by major retail homeware companies, and as such I was not eager to develop a new site.
I was also worried that the distance - 1500KM - Southern Art being based in Hermanus and Martlè in Johannesburg - would be anti-productive, but the first telephonic discussion with Martlè regarding the Brief left me at ease, as I was clearly working with a very capable and professional designer.
She showed eagerness uncommon in business today and passionately developed a template within days. It was HOT and WOW! Nothing like I expected, but everything and more, she captured the essence of our design studio clearly and accurately, and all this in two weeks!
We have increased our turnover by 30% in the past 5 months, but most importantly we could afford to drop production as we could manage and choose contracts according to their profitability. The website acts as a filter and the resultant enquiries have a 75% hit on sales."
Gerrit Oosthuizen - Southern Art Ceramics (Hermanus, Western Cape, South Africa)
“When we first decided on the project of putting together a website for our company I was very apprehensive as it seemed like such a major task. Martlè made it so simple for us. We spent some time together to discuss our needs and to establish what kind of look and feel we wanted, I sent through the text and she went ahead and put together a clean professional site for us which we are very happy with. Thanks for all your trouble.”
