Karissa, You have been nothing short of total joy. Your energy and commitment to excellence, your customer service, your creative ability. You are outstanding and easy to work with. You came to us just at the right time. Toni needed to move to other responsibilities to impact women and you took the ability to support that to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. You made this communication tool critical and amazing to all who visit and to all who use it. Thank you for bringing the FORCE to life and making the MAGIC shine so bright.
Love, Gloria

Thanks, Karissa! Our success was due in no small part to all the branding and media work you did for us. Your work was everywhere at that Miche M-Power conference: on the purple shirts that our team proudly wore, on the Ask Me About My Purse buttons they all wore, and on the lanyards and nametags they all had. Well done, and thank you! You are definitely part of our success!!

I feel like I've won at the lottery! As a result of hiring Karissa, I not only have a logo and website that truly reflect my essence but I also have a strategic foundation from which future versions, as well as my online presence, will continue to be developed. Karissa is like a holistic web practitioner if you will. While collaborating, she listened attentively, researched diligently, and kept her nose to the grindstone until I was satisfied. Karissa is one of few people-focused, service-driven, and results-centred technical professionals out there. I highly recommend her services.

I can testify to Karissa's knowledge, ability to get things done quickly, ability to research a situation and way of communicating to me in a way I understand, and yes, even purple - started to make me smile! Want it done well and right, and better than you knew could be done, check this young lady out.

Hi Karissa, It was great talking to you and your advise helped out quite a bit. I now have a different perspective on how to tackle a WordPress Multisite project.

We met Karissa at WordCamp Kansas City, and we admired the branding package she made for the conference so much that we asked her to make one for Haden Interactive. Our designers had already created our logo, website, and lots of graphics.
The process was very smooth and well organized. She set up a Google Doc with a form for us to fill out with things like our social media accounts, our fonts and hex codes (colors), our logo wardrobe, and so forth.
If you don’t know whether you have all those things or not, you’ll benefit from Karissa’s website/brand audit. Karissa caught some places where we were still using earlier versions of our graphics, pointed out some beautiful graphics that weren’t featured on our website at all, and caught some errors, too.
Karissa’s prices are very reasonable, and we will probably go back to her for future projects. If you’re at a DIY stage, you’ll find it useful to have a style guide ready when you bring in a web firm — and for yourself. Karissa gives sensible, gentle advice that a business thinking about branding should find useful (if you’re reading this, Karissa, I assure you that we are going to make those changes you suggested as soon as we get a chance). And we also found that looking at the PDF printouts together sparked some interesting new ideas for us.

"Before I found Karissa, I was planning to host my first webinar. I didn't have the time, nor was I interested in learning the technicalities of the platform. I knew trying to be both moderator and presenter would interfere with the power and impact of my presentation.
Karissa is a dream come true. Not only did she take control of all the techy details, she soothed me with her caring nature. I knew I could just relax on what I do best... presenting, as I left the rest up to her. The webinar was a great success. I didn't have to think about anything other than delivering my content. Karissa even knew to do things I didn't know needed to be done, insuring the communication between myself and the participants was smooth, elegant and professional. Working with Karissa is a joy. She is calm, grounded and a true professional, an expert in her field.
Now, I can't imagine doing a webinar without her. As I move forward preparing to create my new home study program from the webinar series we did, I have complete faith and knowing that Karissa will create everything necessary to systemize all the pieces of the puzzle together as we create a first class product. I especially love the passion Karissa has for her work. Creating systems and making the magic happen behind the scenes clearly excites her. It doesn't get better than that.
If you are considering hiring Karissa as your assistant for any of her offerings, do it! You will be happy with the results and you will feel at ease knowing that she’s got your back in ways you can't even imagine."

My website was a disaster in every way before Karissa took it over and saved my business from crashing! I paid someone $1,200 to build me a lousy and unattractive site. It was so bad, I had to completely redo it. Karissa took over for me and for a really minimal fee, she turned it to in a beautiful and functional site! You won’t believe how many of my clients take the time to comment on how good my website is. She didn’t just make it pretty, she made it useful. She tinkered with the back end and made it so that it shows up on Google searches. There are so many details that I never would have even noticed, and she just perfected all of it, leaving me with a crisp and ideal website. I can’t give her enough praise!

I highly recommend Karissa! She did an amazing job setting up our website, responded quickly to our requests, gave some great creative ideas to make our website user-friendly, refreshing, and covering all the info we wanted. With such a great experience setting up our website, we have continued to use Karissa to maintain our website, keeping it fresh and updated. Karissa rocks!

Karissa helped me with a website. I thought I knew what I wanted until she presented me with all kinds of options. It was wonderful and I really appreciate her helping me make the site unique and not come cookie-cutter variation. Thanks.

I needed someone to take over my WordPress website and take it to the next level. After creating and maintaining it myself for several years I knew I needed an upgrade.
Karissa is an amazing young women. Her tech skills are outstanding as well as being very creative. What I really appreciate is that Karissa will listen and then take the action what you want. I know what I like and what I don't and I didn't have to worry about being honest.
I love my new website. She was able to navigate through WordPress to get the results that I like and add the new things I wanted as well as many things I didn't even know to ask.
I highly recommend Karissa to anyone seeking to update or create a new and relevant website.

When I was writing my true crime book, suddenly I came to the realization that all would not be completed with the finishing of the manuscript.
There would be website construction, which I possessed no knowledge of where to start, what to include, how to put anything together. So I went into this venture blind.
I was referred to Karissa by another woman who helped with the construction of my landing page. Another aspect I had no knowledge of whatsoever.
All I could say about Karissa was when you go into a project blind as I did, Karissa brings you out of the darkness into the light with her brilliant abilities and acumen. She is up on all the latest WordPress functions and when I first shared a screen with her and watched her put things together it was mesmerizing.
Karissa is very knowledgeable and patient and listened to what I was looking for in a website. I watched as her fingers slipped over her keyboard with lightning speed. If I had a ticket book and a radar gun I could have easily cited her for speed. What seemed impossible to me was extremely simple and quick for her. I highly recommend her services to anyone wanting to expand their existing website or for someone looking to set one up from the beginning.
I say sit back, learn and enjoy working with her. She is an absolute Angel and when she's on a mission for you just sit back and enjoy the ride, because Karissa is in the drivers seat.
Karissa strives and dedicates herself to accomplish perfection for her clients. I have never been happier with the results she has provided me to this point and will continue to do so in the very near future. I have recommended her to several people and I expect her to become one of the greater and mostly asked for website builders.
Thank you again Karissa!
With much Admiration,

Karissa is Fantastic!! She helped me so much today. I see light at the end of the tunnel! She helped me with a CRM and it will get these piles upon piles of contact sheets off my desk & in my automated program! Life Changing! Very professional and very pleasant! 5 Star!!!! Thanks Karissa

If your computer files are overwhelming you, Karissa can do amazing organization for you. Just like anything else, our homes, our offices, our computers can also get unruly. This is a service that can help so many of us! We feel overwhelmed with many different aspects of our businesses and life. I think that we don't often consider that what we do on our computers everyday does that. And when you think of the idea of organizing ALL those files, pics, we just stop. Karissa can stop the overwhelm even with just a couple of hours. Take advantage of this because you are not seeing this service anywhere else.

Karissa listened well and designed a great website for me! She does not use a cookie cutter approach, but instead listens to what you want and adapts her design to fit you. It was a pleasure working with her and I highly recommend her services!

While working on the design of my websites with Karissa, I mentioned my over flowing email inbox which had over 21,000 emails from the last 18 months. She said that she could help with that too and I jumped on that offer, as I wanted it done.
After 1 week of some online sessions and some work afterwards by myself and we had it cleared into folders or deleted into a manageable system that runs by itself.
Profoundly thankful for working with her and for this help. She works very hard for her clients and helps to really improve their strategies and marketing. Highly recommend working with Karissa.
Just Do it, it will help you get organized!
