I had the pleasure of collaborating closely with Steve Brentlinger for more than seven years, and I can say without hesitation that he is one of the most talented and versatile creative directors I’ve ever worked with. Steve's ability to turn complex ideas into something truly brilliant is unmatched. He has a unique gift for understanding what's needed and bringing it to life with creativity and precision.
Steve's approach to every project is collaborative and thoughtful. He listens intently, asks the right questions, and ensures that the final product always exceeds expectations. Whether under tight deadlines or faced with challenging demands, Steve always delivers with speed and excellence. There was never a task too big or a detail too small for him.

I am confident that Steve will quickly become a go-to resource for anyone in need of top-tier creative direction, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to elevate their brand.

Amy Carter - National Director of Marketing, Staffmark Group
Solutions Now, a twenty-year-old technology company servicing Fortune 500 industries, had the privilege of working with Steve on re-branding and re-defining of our messaging in the market. Steve led us through focused discussions on key messaging first and foremost. Once we were confident in our messaging, he lead us through our presentation and image changes including updated logos, new product introductions, new partner introductions both in digital and physical media. His leadership and design creativity drove our team to focus on the customer benefits and drive our solution messaging around the benefits, the “Why”, not just the “What” or “How”.    

Our entire team and partners are proud of our new brand image and look forward to working with Steve again on future projects as we continue to roll out new products and integrate into new industries. 

Jay Battershell - CEO, Solutions Now
I have had the privilege of working with Steve since 1997 and can confidently say that he is an exceptional professional whose creativity and dedication are unmatched.
 
Steve possesses a remarkable talent for transforming vague, conceptual ideas into fully realized campaigns and deliverables. Whether we provided him with a rough concept or just an idea floating in our heads, Steve consistently delivered outstanding results. His ability to create fresh, engaging content month after month for years on end is a testament to his creativity and commitment to excellence.
 
In our years of collaboration, Steve has always been a joy to work with. His pleasant demeanor and positive attitude made every interaction enjoyable, and I often found myself ending our interactions with a smile. Despite the frequent last-minute requests and minimal context that were sometimes part of our working dynamic, Steve never failed to deliver high-quality work.
 
Steve's versatility and market understanding are particularly noteworthy. In the staffing and recruiting industry, covering the administrative, light industrial, distribution, customer service, and healthcare verticals, he demonstrated an acute awareness of our audience's needs. His dedication to researching and understanding our business ensured that the content he created was always relevant and appealing.
 
Steve's consistent excellence and reliability were so impressive that I engaged Steve for my recruiting practice at my subsequent company. His work ethic and creative insight were invaluable to our success, and I have no doubt that he will bring the same level of commitment and brilliance to his freelance work.
 
I highly recommend Steve Brentlinger for any graphic design needs. His ability to take concepts from inception to completion, combined with his market understanding and dedication to client satisfaction, makes him an ideal partner for any business looking to enhance its creative and market presence.
