Exceptionally Responsive
Jess was patient, offered her valued expertise as a designer when needed and was exceptionally responsive to our comments and desired edits.
Envisioning our new label and concept from a non-graphic artist perspective (and then attempting to describe the components and requirements that we wanted in order to capture the essence of our business to Jess) was challenging for me. However, Jess utilized her talent and skills as a designer and to create a fresh and professional label and logo in a timely manner. Jess was patient, offered her valued expertise as a designer when needed and was exceptionally responsive to our comments and desired edits. While working as an intermediary with a new print company for our labels, she was able to clearly address our needs and demonstrate cost savings for our business. I highly recommend Jess Glebe Design and look forward to working with Jess and her team in the future. Thank You!

You will not be disappointed.
Jessica and Caitlin were a dream to work with.
They paid attention to every detail and created the most amazing packaging. It was as if they reached into my head and brought things to life! I don't know how I got so lucky to work with such a professional pair, but I'm so glad I found them… You will not be disappointed.

I don’t know too many businesses that offer such a caring, personal touch.
It was suggested to me to contact Jess Glebe Design to help create an identity for my new business and I am so glad that I did. This was my first experience working with a design firm and wasn't really sure what to expect. Jess made me feel like I was in good hands from the very start. I was pleasantly surprised with her creativity, product knowledge, suggestions, flexibility, and all around kindness.
I felt like I was working with a friend! Even after our contract was satisfied, Jess was interested to see how my final products look. I don't know too many businesses that offer such a caring , personal touch like that.
As my business grows, I will continue to work with Jess Glebe Design because I know that they care about the success of their clients. They have a fresh approach with relevant design tactics which is sure to enhance any business profile. Thanks again Jess and Caitlin.

Where do I begin, as I’d hate to give only 5-stars when I could not have been more satisfied!!
I had found Jess several years ago after she had completed branding and packaging for one of her clients. I said to myself then that when the time comes and I was ready to launch my product line, Jess would be the one that I contacted. I did and she not only met, but exceeded my expectations.
Within a manner of days I had already felt as if I had crossed the threshold of client to friend. I am a pretty headstrong person that knows what I want and has no trouble expressing it, but Jess never balked at the opportunity to interject her professional opinion, based on real life, industry experience, to reign me back in and go with an option that worked better for my business and my brand. She treated my business (my baby) like one that she birthed herself.
I am happy to call Jess a friend and can't wait to burn through these 5K labels so that we can work together again!!

...understood my needs because she listened...
Where do I begin, as I’d hate to give 5-stars with just a short blip of WHY I would recommend Jess Glebe Design, she deserves a BEYOND 5-star review!! Jess, understood my needs because she listened to exactly what I was looking for.
She asked key questions and helped me understand what my vision was for my brand, as I found it hard to put into words for many years.
She guided me through the logo redesign and label creation process while respectfully cueing me into design trends and sharing her experiences with me. Her energetic, kind and compassionate personality was very helpful as well, because that is important to me as I entered a foreign territory of creativity.
Jess gave me many options. She worked quickly, but extremely thoroughly and in such a detailed, perfectionist manner (again similar to how I roll in my line of work as a raw juice chef/business owner). My brand was important to Jess, and I felt that in this whole process. She truly cared about the future of my business and did everything in her power to create a logo and label design that would WOW my customers.
I highly recommend her services to ANYBODY who is starting a business or needs some guidance on how to rebrand their current business. This is only the beginning of a fruitful business relationship!!! Thank you Jess!!

Over the moon ecstatic
I was referred to Jess Glebe Design by a colleague. To be honest, I was a bit hesitant at first because I believed a larger firm would better suit my needs. However, she came highly recommended, so I decided to proceed.
Long story short, I have been over the moon ecstatic since we began collaborating.
Everything that has been designed for Penny & Rose, from the logo to the website, has been perfection, and the stories, beautifully written by Caitlin Riley, is the icing on top. Not to mention, our package design won a GD USA award for best of 2018! At the end of the day, it feels more than a client/designer relationship; it's a true partnership. Jess & Caitlin are truly vested in our collective success.

I am so happy with our new look...
Jess was recommended to me by my label printing company. I have been in business for about 4 years, and was ready for a refresh on my labels. After the initial consultation with Jess, she recommended that we take a look at a complete brand refresh.
It seemed like a daunting project when we started, but Jess was patient and had fantastic ideas and insight on the logo and labels. I'm so happy with our new look, the new custom labels look amazing on our jars, and I look forward to working with Jess again as we develop new flavors and product lines.
Jess and Caitlin (who did the copy for my jars) were a pleasure to work with, very responsive and timely in turn around, and turned a daunting project into a fun and successful one.

Incredibly flexible and super patient...
Jessica Glebe is amazing. I own a small marketing consulting firm in Boston and Jess and I have been working on client projects for a number of years now. She is incredibly flexible, can often jump on things immediately, and is super patient with tweaks, changes and specific requests that I make.
“She is incredibly flexible, can often jump on things immeditately...’’
I have used her for logo designs, brochures, ads and web. She also has a really great sense of humor, and it's nice to be able to joke with a collaborator when you're in the thick of a project. Jess is totally professional and can work virtually with any company anywhere around the world.

The ease of doing business with Jess Glebe Design was great
While looking for a graphic designer to create the logo for our restaurant Stable, Jessica got recommended to us. We were delighted from the moment we started working with her.
The easiness to do business with her was great, but the creativity, understanding and her talent to capture an idea and concept in to one logo is impressive.
While getting the logo designed, we found out that she also does web-design. So of course we tasked her with building our website, e-mail accounts and everything else that comes with it and we are more the satisfied with what she did.
To top it all off, Caitlin did the copy-writing for our website and totally succeeded in bringing our message across. Big thanks to the two of them!

I have never worked with such a professional designer.
In our search for a designer to help us with our catering truck design, a good friend suggested that we speak to Jessica of Jess Glebe Design. So, so, so very happy that we did. Jessica is an incredibly talented graphic designer. She offers a fountain of great suggestions throughout the process and keeps your project on track.
She responds to every concern and question with great sensitivity and thoroughness.
I have never worked with such a professional designer. She gets things turned around instantly and never keeps us waiting on anything. Jessica has created designs for our catering truck, catering menus, flyers, takeout bags, and digital ads for our social media sites. Great work!!

Caitlin was indispensable in capturing our voice...
We could not be more pleased to have worked with Jess Glebe Design. We had plenty of face-to-face consultations and working process with both Jess and Caitlin. Continuing support via phone or email was timely.
In addition to designing and setting up our website, Jess has done a fantastic job in getting us on the road to establishing a cohesive brand appearance for our business and a more targeted presence on social media.
Caitlin was indispensable in capturing our voice and giving our business the "Zeitgeist" for which we were searching.
Jess and Caitlin incorporated our ideas into the process and had impressive suggestions when we came up blank. We look forward to maintaining both our business and personal connections with them!

Effortless + Pain-Free
Jess Glebe Design came highly recommended by our friends at Modus Hotels. With such high acclaim, we were naturally a tad skeptical...but with the pressing need for a logo design and all around branding for our new venture, D.C.'s Hotel Hive, we quickly reached out to Jess.
After viewing her first design presentation, we let out a great sigh of relief—Jess's work lived up to its renown, our hesitation was put to rest, and we're happy to say that it's been smooth sailing ever since.
From our hotel collateral to interior wayfinding signage, working with Jess was effortless and pain-free. Her aptitude for communication, impeccable turnaround time, and creative capacities are forces to be reckoned with. She listened to our feedback, collaborated with our team, and was a huge part in making Hotel Hive a great success.

Jess drove the boat with a seasoned hand...
Choosing a designer to create my logo and label was a huge nerve-racking step. You’re tasked with choosing someone to help you move your idea, your baby, forward. After seeing Jessica’s work and speaking with her, my gut told me I had found the right person.
Without a doubt, Jess brought my vision to life. She listened to my ramblings, earmarked keywords, and interpreted my dreams to distill everything into a logo and label that matched what my subconscious was looking for.
Her communication is amazing, and thank goodness! I wanted someone to take the lead and guide me through this daunting process. She did that and more. From sourcing the perfect paper to overcoming design challenges with optimism and calm, Jess drove the boat with a seasoned hand, all the while fully collaborating and keeping me up to speed.
My happiness is re-affirmed every day when I see the gorgeous label gracing my honey jars, not to mention that I saw an immediate increase in sales with my new packaging. What’s more, the responses from customers were the exact keywords we had hoped to manifest through graphic expression: classic, simple, elegant, timeless.
I recommend Jess whenever I overhear a friend or colleague looking for a talented designer, and my advice to you, if you’re on the fence, is to leap on over.

I knew I wanted to work with Jessica the minute I saw her website
Jessica's designs spoke to me right away. I knew she could capture the essence of my business and create a logo just for me. Her process helped refine my thoughts and crystallize key components which she then used to create a beautiful logo. This logo captures layers of meaning and projects the exact feeling I needed it to. Brilliant! I also enjoyed brainstorming with Jessica and teaming with her through this process. It was a joy to work with her. I look forward to working with her in the near future to redesign my website and create all new stationery for me. This process of rebranding marks the start of a new life for me. And Jessica is helping this new life take form. How exciting!

Jess listens very well to the needs of her customer.
Modus Hotels is owner and operator of privately owned lifestyle hotels based in Washington, D.C. We worked with Jess Glebe Design to create a new brand identity for Modus Hotels. Jessica presented us with six rounds of options and we settled on a very modern, fun, clean logo that helped give our brand more presence in the market. From there, we worked together to create a whole new brand package for each hotel, so that Modus would be recognized at each one of our 8 hotels. Jess is incredibly creative, and listens very well to the needs of her customer.
We get so many wonderful comments on the new branding for Modus. We will continue to work with Jessica on all of our branding needs in the future. We really enjoyed working with her.

I knew she could execute my vision.
I found a very talented designer by the name of Jessica Glebe. I called her up and told her about a small artisan line of food products that I was producing. She told me about her experience so I viewed her portfolio and it was impeccable. After searching thedieline.com, I knew she could execute my vision. I wanted something that represented local, organic and fresh. With her combined experience and my passion, we set off to create the perfect logo.
The first three options I received were all so awesome, it was hard to choose which I wanted! I decided on simple and modern design with a touch of the South...

It’s rare to find one designer that can handle such a variety of challenges...Jess Glebe Design is the exception.
Sprout does a lot of work with independent designers, everything from brand and logo development, to printed pieces that combine text and imagery, to graphic design that’s adaptable to the web, to infographics that tell a story.
It’s rare to find one designer that can handle such a variety of challenges all while maintaining quality and fidelity. Jess Glebe Design is the exception.
No matter the medium, Jess has responded with awesome work that shows that she really listened to our challenge, understood our needs, and figured out a thoughtful solution that doesn’t just look good, but makes sense. Plus, she does it all quickly!
