Who Do We Work For? Our Clients.

Being a company that offers a variety of creative design communication services, our personal and company goal are to ensure our clients know that they are serviced well. For our clients, this manifests itself in having Empire carefully oversee and manage their creative and messaging product in whatever form that it may take. It’s simple, we are a service-oriented business, so we are here to serve our clients.

In particular, Empire serves using a set of principles. We listen. We think. We create. We deliver. At Empire, we saw a need to provide client services that understand the intricacies of managing the creative product across the world of print and digital forms and sources.

A Single Source for Creative Design Solution: We aim to offer you a single source for your business’ brand management needs. One location that can manage complex print capabilities, various applications, deadlines and schedules. Rely on MindDessign to generate the brand image, marketing messaging and design that commands attention and gets a response. These are needs that our clients demand of us. And that’s who we serve.

Our Core Values

We basically have four “client-focused” core values that provide our foundation. We could certainly add more, but if we can hit the mark on these, then we’ve got our client’s covered.

Stewardship: Our experience and expertise enable our business and serve our clients. Being a good steward is rightfully managing those tools. And stewardship at Empire means reliably serving the needs of our clients frugally and with the utmost integrity.

Integrity: A good reputation speaks volumes of the trust a client has in us. At Empire we let our “yes” mean “yes” and our “no” mean “no.” We strive never to lose our reputation in the eyes of the clients.

Diligence: We are about getting it done, the right way. Our diligence will push us to find that new creative idea, that new source in technology, all in an effort to give our clients what they pay for.

Trust: Trust is another one of those nebulous concepts that all companies strive to earn. However, clients know when they have it and when they don’t. At MindDessign, we plan to earn your trust.

What We Do for Our Clients

Empire is a focused-creative design firm specializing in all forms of print and digital communication.

Creative and Corporate Communications: We got our start in logo design and corporate communications. Empire provides all forms of creative design for business communication media, including ad campaigns, supportive marketing materials, trade show design and production, film and video solutions.

Web Design & Development: From providing long-term clients a fresh design to their online presence to creating a new business web site and custom development applications, our goal is to get your company noticed.

Search Marketing / Promotion: MindDessign provides targeted search marketing that includes identifying the clients audience and engaging them with efficacious intent. We want our customers to communicate effectively and elicit the right response. We do this through on-site, on-page search optimization and on-going content development, email marketing campaigns and conversion solutions.

Our Clients Say the Nicest Things

Mark A. Dubois Chief Operating Officer – Transdermal Therapeutics, Inc.
My name is Mark Dubois and I am the Chief Operating Officer at Transdermal Therapeutics here in Birmingham, Alabama, and I’m writing on behalf of my friend, Chris Sizemore, and Empire Design & Development. I have known Chris personally and professionally for almost 20 years now, and I can say, without hesitation, that his quality of work, professionalism, honesty, and integrity are unmatched. I believe so much in him that I don’t even entertain requests from other design firms anymore because I know they can’t deliver in the way that Empire does.
Unfortunately, the art of customer service and quality seem to be fading from the playbooks of too many companies these days which is why I love working with Chris. He’s not just going to tell you how valuable a customer you are, he’s going to show you by treating you as one. In short, look no further than Chris and Empire if you’re looking for top quality work, unparalleled service, and absolute integrity.

Janet Everheart – CEO – West Texas Opportunities, WTO,I
To Whom It May Concern:
Since my retirement from West Texas Opportunities, Inc. (WTO,I) in 2009, the new WTO,I CEO has allowed me to assist the agency with their annual reports.
We became acquainted with Chris Sizemore through our relationship with Atmos Energy. WTO,I was very fortunate to have a great working relationship with Atmos Energy and in 2008, we were seeking to improve our locally-produced annual report. The Atmos Energy Manager of Customer Advocacy, Dan Alderson, put us in contact with Chris Sizemore at Empire Design and Development to explore new ideas for producing our reports. Dan highly recommended Chris and his company for their design skills, dependability and overall product excellence.
WTO,I recently received their 2017 report and I believe it is the best one to date. It really does seem to improve every year, thanks to the creative skills of Chris and his staff. This report is distributed to State and Federal agencies, County Judges, City Managers and non-profit agencies such as WTO,I. I highly recommend Chris and his staff at Empire Design and Development!
Thank you for allowing me to “pay it forward” as Dan Alderson and Atmos Energy have done for WTO,I.

Ramtech Building Systems, Inc. Testimonial for Empire Design & Development
When Ramtech embarked on the challenge of redesigning our existing flagship corporate website to incorporate the content from our industry-specific websites, we turned to Chris Sizemore and his company Empire Design & Development. Our challenge was to continue to emphasize the specific markets we serve while telling the Ramtech story with a heavier emphasis on the visuals. From the outset, Chris listened to what we desired while also doing a tremendous amount of homework by studying our existing sites to learn not just about Ramtech and our products, but also our customers. From this, Chris recommended using a Content Management System on the WordPress platform and worked with us to select a theme that was adaptive to our needs.
Throughout the process, we were very impressed with Chris’ creativity and patience in getting everything just right. Our Marketing Team is admittedly a diverse bunch with strong opinions, but Chris took this all in stride and was able to incorporate all the comments to deliver a site that we’re all very proud of. In addition to his visual creativity, Chris has a strong knowledge of SEO and PPC and worked closely with our consultant to incorporate the requirements necessary to optimize the new website.
We pride ourselves on being a customer value driven company, and we believe Chris delivered tremendous value to us on this project. We will not hesitate to call on Chris again, and wholeheartedly recommend Empire Design & Development for any project that requires graphic and creative design.
Sincerely,
Ramtech Building Systems, Inc.
