After many years of running agencies and developing brands, I decided to start my own business. After an internet search, my wife found Blue Tomato, which stood out with bold design. Discussing my needs with Kim was a pleasure, and she quickly developed a logo and website that incorporated my personality and style. It has proven to be a terrific brand design and a great business generator. Not a day goes by that I don’t hear, “I love that business card,” or “what a great logo.” I highly recommend the lovely Kim Collins and Blue Tomato.
"Kim recently created an ad for our ecommerce business. Since the ad was being displayed on a local movie theatre screen as a preview, there were specific requirements Kim had to meet in order for the ad to accommodate the screen size. Kim turned the creative around in 48 hours, in time to meet the theatre's deadline. We were very pleased with Kim's creativity and turnaround time."
"Kim at Blue Tomato was so wonderful to work with!! It was our first experience doing a customized website.

Our old website was stale and needed to be completely overhauled and blue tomato delivered for us promptly and effectively.

Kim is our go-to designer for all my business needs PERIOD! She understood what we need as a client and able to come up with various design ideas to fit our needs immediately. We trusted Kim's service since 2011! Great personality and very creative.
Kim and her team have been amazing in creating a new online store for our bakery La Gourmandine. They have also created our backend system for our production team to fulfill orders for customers from our 4 stores. Since the launch of the website and the internal system (2021) they have been very quick in responding and making any edits we requested (which have been a lot!). To this day we are still perfecting and adding new features to the system and the website. I highly recommend Blue Tomato.
