Methodikal, Inc.

Methodikal is wonderful to work with. Truly, Mike & Seth couldn't have selected a more appropriate name for their company. Their systematic approach to learning about their clients' needs and about their clients' products is unparalleled. Perhaps they know more about our organization than we do at this point! Through the discovery process, interviews with our staff and guests, Google Hangouts, in person presentations, and phone calls- Methodikal has been a reliable partner in developing our branding at Basin Harbor in Vergennes, VT. For a resort that has been around for over 130 years, there is a tremendous amount of history, information to take in, and vision to streamline. Mike & Seth are helping us to do just that with a professional approach and a sprinkle of humor. They take the myriad anecdotes and memories that our team and guests have to share and turn it into a meaningful narrative that is not only visually beautiful, but has substance. We asked ourselves, "How do we convey the feeling that our guests have when they stay at Basin Harbor?" "How do you capture that emotion in words, imagery and design?" We are finding our answers through our marketing, branding, and ad campaign development with Mike & Seth. They are creative, consistent and their work has depth. It has been a little over a year since we began our journey with Methodikal and we look forward to the future! We couldn't be more grateful for their partnership, they really "get us", and we highly recommend Methodikal.

I have been working with Mike and Seth at Methodikal for ten years now and they are a very important part of my organization’s team. The thing I appreciated most about Methodikal is that they view our business relationship as a true partnership. Several years ago we printed a booklet that heavily featured a performer who subsequently had legal trouble. We were facing a very expensive reprint of the piece that we simply could not afford. Seth and Mike spent time brainstorming with me and ultimately came up with a wonderful solution that not only was affordable but turned the situation into an opportunity for an important community-wide discussion. Their projects are always done on time and at budget. They are very open to feedback and their designs are fun and lively. In fact, several of their posters are hanging on my office walls right now. I have enjoyed working with Methodikal so much that when I changed positions and moved from New England to the Midwest, I brought them along. The physical distance has done nothing to deter their dedication to ensuring our organization looks its best!

When we began a rebranding initiative at Howard Center, we were looking for a company that could help us explain to the community the range of services we provide to Chittenden County residents. Mike and Seth at Methodikal understood the challenge, and they spent time with our staff and board members to be able to distill our services into a single, clear message: Help is here. From those interviews, they designed our new logo, a new brand ad campaign, business materials, and templates to use going forward. Because of their help, our materials now have a consistent look, our organizational message is recognized throughout the community, and people know who to call for help. The success of our rebranding effort is due to the expertise, talent, insight, and patience of Mike and Seth. They were great to work with and provided us with a solid visual representation of our brand that captured our mission. Today, five years later, we still hear regularly that Help is here is a great tagline!

If you’re looking for top notch branding and design work in Vermont, this is the place to go! I started a small artisanal perfume company one year ago, and Methodikal took me through the whole process, from name development to packaging, unified design conceptualuzation through all elements of the brand, as well as e-commerce website building. If they don’t do something you need ( like photography), they work with other professionals to find the quality services you need. They consistently meet deadlines and are always cheerful and professional to work with. When you’re starting a business or looking to overhaul your brand, you want to work with professionals who believe in what you’re doing and will go the extra mile to make your company a success. You’ll find those people at Methodikal!!

Seth and Mike...where do I start. Years ago I hired Seth as he was just starting out in his career because I sensed he had the talent and personality to create compelling work. I was right. And then some. I also had the pleasure of hiring Mike as well. Mike had the sensibility and ability to craft authentic and fresh ideas. Again, Mike proved me right. When Seth and Mike started Methodikal, I knew they would kill it. Two talented and down-to-earth professionals, doing great work for clients who appreciate it. I have watched their work closely over the years. It is always good. Always smart. Always relevant. I refer clients to them regularly. They are a unique company in this market. You'd be foolish not to consider them for your next project.
