It’s the usual, James. I gotta stuff ten pounds of shit into a five-pound bag. Make me look good.

Working with Jim Hayes over the past several years has been excellent. He does a great job of taking an idea and turning it into a wonderful finished product, nearly always on very tight deadline. He couldn’t be more reliable and easy to work with.

Jim has more amazing talents than necessary. I know I can count on him not only for quick turnarounds and deadlines, but taking the time to mock up multiple ideas that I may not have thought of initially, in order to get the right “vibe” for the piece. His communication is efficient and very timely. The Hotel Monaco Salt Lake City has used him for years, and I can’t imagine why we ever wouldn’t.

Jim Hayes is the ultimate example of someone uncovering his true passion and reason for being on this planet. Jim is doing PRECISELY what he should be doing. His flair for grasping intimate details and only half-communicated concepts and concocting amazingly relevant, forward-thinking masterpieces of creativity is uncanny. I remain in awe that Jim can employ far-out-of-the-sphere thinking and, yet, develop results that are unexpectedly professional and appropriate for sophisticated audiences. (He doesn’t use cutesy-ness just to prove his bizarre thought patterns.) Jim’s work is on-target, he makes the process fun, and the bonus is that he’s a good guy!

It is extremely rare to find someone such as Jim that is not only talented on the design side but also versed in the business and marketing side as well. Jim truly “gets it!” In the short time I worked with Jim it became clear that he is one of the most creative, talented, trustworthy and honest individuals I have had the pleasure to work with. His work ethic, talent and focus on detail and desire to understand the full nature of the project are just three of the reasons why Jim would be an asset to any company looking to build their brand and send the right message to their clients. We will be working with Jim on future projects as we grow our company.

I’ve worked with Jim for 15 years and always think of him first for my graphic design needs. Whether it’s a simple flyer or ad or a complete branding package, Jim provides designs that are both elegant and efficient. I appreciate that he truly listens to my needs and strives to meet each project’s goal, whether it’s to attract eyeballs or spark action.

String Beads has worked with Cenozoic Design (now Ha! Yes!) since our inception in 1993. During this time, Jim has assisted and helped guide our efforts in the promotion and presentation of the businesses. Cenozoic provided creative design work for various projects, as well as production orientated assistance with quarterly newsletters, postcards for classes and packaging. All work was completed on a timely basis at an outstanding level of quality. His facilities and state of the art equipment enabled us to be competitive. We are very appreciative of his efforts.
