What Arts Organizations Say About Ruddle Creative:
"Wow! Thanks for the detailed feedback. This is very helpful, and I’m going to pass it along to my graphic designers as we prepare to do next year’s brochure. You really are the Go To Guy for detailed analysis of collateral."
--Erik Curren, Director of Marketing, American Shakespeare Center
"Thought you'd like to see the brochure for our new season. The response has been overwhelming: 91% of last year's subscribers renewed! 125 new subscribers."
--Rick Schiller, Executive Director,
Angelina Arts Alliance
"Thanks for your interest and expertise. My Board and I are very excited about the direction you're taking us."
--Ray Solley, Executive Director,
Torrance Cultural Arts Center Foundation
"Your advice was so helpful! Thank you. We will definitely implement your suggestions the next time we print our brochures."
—Elizabeth Halverstam, Executive Director,
Arts Horizons
"At first I thought it was going to be difficult to read what someone 'from the outside' had to say... In the long run, I am pleased to have a different and outside account of the process, which served (and will continue to serve) as a tool for us to refine our process and improve this weak area within our organization."
--Emma Palzere-Rae, Executive Director,
Chorus of Westerley
"I want you to see how far we've come... and the impact of your input on us, both in your presentation, as well as the one-on-one consultation we were fortunate to share with you. We found your advice about our brochures to be most helpful. We were able to communicate your ideas to our designer and create marketing pieces that reflect our museum more positively."
--Gwen Young, Director of Marketing, Midway Village & Museum Center
