Meet Karissa Skirmont

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.

“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.”

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.

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.

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!!
