The DigitaI Gene - Stockton-on-Tees

Kate Hutchinson

I recently completed my Digital Carbon Literacy Training with Sharon, who was a knowledgeable and insightful teacher. Sharon explained complex information in a simple and easy to understand way and made the training fun and informative. I’ve walked away with a much more in-depth understanding of my personal and professional digital carbon footprint. I would highly recommend this training to anyone looking to become carbon literate, especially if your role involves digital/tech.

Cannot thank The Digital Gene enough for their amazing 'Decarbonising Digital' Carbon Literacy course. I am over the moon to be certified. Sharon's knowledge, especially in such a relatively new area of sustainability conversation, is second to none. The training session was a safe space to have honest discussions about the climate crisis and how we can all do our bit to build a better future. Can't recommend their course enough!

I had heard great things about Digital Gene from a couple of people I knew, whose website they had designed and developed.

They were really professional all the way through, which was awesome. I sometimes felt that Sharon should have been awarded a medal by the end of the project. I have lots of personal barriers to addressing technical challenges, it really isn't my area. To get the kind of authentic, really personal representation of my business that I wanted I had to initially be very reflective, and that really needed to be done in collaboration with the team. The initial questions they asked me, although they took me some time to consider, really set a solid ground for the whole design. I felt that they really understood my vision from the outset.

That's because they really know their market.

The result exceeded my expectation. I absolutely love it! It is really functional, makes my booking so much easier and looks amazing. My business has moved on a big stride because of it.

The best thing about working with Digital Gene was that they were really flexible. I was Ill throughout the build and the flexibility was very much appreciated.

I look forward to the next stage, which I hope isn't too far away. They really know my business now and have lots of ideas so I feel like they're part of my growth process.

I thoroughly recommend Digital Gene.

Side note: They also sent me marshmallows with my face on!!

From start to finish, working with “The Digital Gene” on a micro website project has been a pleasant experience with a great end result.

Thank you Sharon Williams for your prompt and professional advice, guidance feedback and overall service. I wouldn’t hesitate in working with you on future projects and would highly recommend you to anyone asking me for a recommendation.

The team at The Digital Gene are amazing. They spent time with me and in my business so that they understood my business and its USP's. As such they were able to design and create a website that accurately reflects me and my business. The website is engaging, colourful and attracts clients to visit and spend time on the site. It has future proofed my business. It has already won me work!

The team encourage and support you to write great content and Blogs for SEO. They are quick to respond and ensure the website goes live on schedule and they support the launch and their aftercare has been brilliant. They have exceeded my expectations.

I tried with 2 different companies to get a website that I was proud of and failed! I was disengaged, frustrated and sceptical (not an easy client), but The Digital Gene proved to me that my time with them was being well invested - they taught me how important a website, and its content is, and how it must reflect your business positively. I am proud of what we achieved together and highly recommend The Digital Gene.

Wow, what can I say.....The Social Gene, designed the Halloween and (hot off the press) Christmas graphics for Ultra Accountancy with minimal input from us.

The service has been exceptional.

Both Declan and Sharon are a pleasure to work with - it was much easier than dealing with any other graphic designers:

We arranged a phone call (so I could explain who we are, what we are about and what we wanted to achieve) and they came back within a couple of days with a few examples - 2 of which we used in our marketing as we couldn't decide which to go for!

We have placed our graphics on our website, social media and email footers and we've received lots of compliments from our clients and connections.

If you are looking for a fantastic graphic designer who is passionate about what you do as well as expressing your business visually, then look no further than The Social Gene!

I really needed some help with influencer marketing so I got in touch with the Digital Gene. I've received amazing support from Sharon and the team and it was all so personalised to my business, budget and needs. I even got website and marketing advice too. I was given the advice and tools to move my business forward in an area that was totally new for me. It's all been a huge help and something I can use in my business going forward. Thanks for everything 🙂
