Chris was a pleasure to work with. We especially appreciate that he took the time to learn about our target audience, which includes Tribes in remote areas of Alaska with limited technology infrastructure. He made sure the new website reflected Alaska’s values and was easy and reliable to use.

Chris’ guidance and expertise in rolling out the updated site was invaluable and we are seeing increased traffic to the site and receiving positive feedback from users as a result.”

Working with Chris to rebuild our website was such a pleasure! Chris did an excellent job of listening to what our needs were and making suggestions of how to improve what we offer to our audience. The end product is a website that is both more user-friendly and much easier for me to maintain. Chris’s work has made my day-to-day work more efficient and has allowed me to engage more effectively with the attorneys that our agency serves.”

Working with Chris on our Central Carolina Regional Education Service Alliance and Central Carolina Principal Preparation Program websites over the past few years has been fantastic. In the beginning, he created successful and engaging websites that exceeded our expectations! Chris’s ongoing dedication to quality ensures a smooth and enjoyable process in maintaining our websites. His consistent availability, reliability, and eagerness to tackle challenges continues to make our projects and websites run seamlessly!”

We have received nothing but praise from visitors to our new website. Chris skillfully (and patiently!) created a site that is both informative and enjoyable to navigate. Having a fresh, professional look makes my colleagues and I proud to widely share our website as a resource. Chris is wonderful to work with because he shows not just a commitment to detail and professionalism but a genuine commitment to presenting our organization in the best possible way.”

Tomatillo Design made the process of developing a new website for my non-profit smooth and easy. Chris walked me through each part of the process and worked through design issues with me when I wasn’t sure of what I wanted. We are really excited about showing off our new website because it reflects the positive impact we aim to have on the state of Montana.”

Chris saved the day. We wanted a new, more modern website, and our old website included outdated and numerous retired pages that made navigating the backend very challenging. Chris took us through a very clear, simple process to audit our current website allowing us to take or update what we wanted and leave all the old information behind. He was responsive, nimble, and offered solutions to several challenges we encountered.”

It was a pleasure working with Chris to develop an updated website for Family & Children’s Resource Program. He helped us design a website that is attractive, informative, and easy to navigate. He worked with us to ensure the website reflected our vision and that it met our requirements for web accessibility. I highly recommend Chris to other organizations looking for a new or refreshed website!”

Designing a website for a social justice organization can be a daunting task, but Chris makes the process easy. From providing guidance on current trends on website functionality to specific attention to detail, Chris has done a great job with our new website to ensure it reflects the thematic feel of the work we do.

Since the launch of our new website, traffic to our resources, initiatives, and even our donate page, have increased significantly. Chris provides great customer service, and is always willing to be a resource with our website updating needs. We will continue to partner with Chris in our future digital endeavors.”

Chris is incredibly responsive, generous of spirit, and knowledgeable. I appreciated all those things, but the two things I appreciated the most:

1) He had a clear process and guided us through it, with honest feedback about what it would take to meet our deadline.

2) He has first-hand knowledge of the importance of a strong focus and clearing the clutter on an organization’s website–and the importance of creating a website that does as much work as possible for an organization that’s already stretched in time and resources. Hugely valuable and rare.”

I can’t say enough about Chris and his work! He was very patient and professional every step of the way. He was a true partner in the design of our website and he really listened to what I needed. I highly recommend working with Chris on any and all website design projects.”

Chris has been great to work with in the design of our new website. He has been both patient and responsive throughout the development and implementation process for our ‘new look’ at Advance Physical Therapy. His ability to help us clarify our vision for the site, while remaining receptive to our preferences and suggestions for practical day to day function and aesthetic particulars, makes collaboration easy. We are quite happy with where the site is today and know it will continue to evolve with his support.”

Chris exudes empathy. His approach is first to listen carefully, then he acts to represent exactly what he hears from his client. If he doesn’t get it right the first time, he’ll go back to the drawing board until the product suits all concerned. Chris is the person I want in my corner when I’m trying to communicate my message to a broader audience.”

Chris understands what every successful nonprofit needs, and this knowledge is reflected in the modern website designs he creates. He went beyond other website developers by providing tools that empower our team to continue building the platform we need and to have full ownership over it. We cannot overstate the quality of his work and professionalism – he is efficient, effective, and responsive. He is also a joy to know.”

Chris has always been so determined and persistent to help us design and produce an attractive and compelling website to use in telling our story. There is no way we could have accomplished this new site without Chris’ guidance and direction over the whole project. I HIGHLY endorse and recommend Chris and his company to anyone who may have a need for website design.”

We are so grateful for the hard work, patience, and creative energy that Chris put into our new website! Our organization was extremely impressed by the high-quality of work and by how fast the website was completed.

From the initial point of contact to after the redesign was complete, Chris took time to learn about our communications needs in order to create something that would truly work for our clients and organization. We were particularly impressed by the professionalism, patience and flexibility that Chris demonstrated in navigating through our different needs. The new website is already making an impact in helping the clients we serve find the resources and services they need. Thank you to Tomatillo Design for meeting and exceeding our expectations!”

I’m so happy to have discovered Tomatillo Design while working with Mental Health America of Greenville County (MHAGC) on updating and modernizing its website. As we searched for that magic mix of affordability and expertise, Chris stood head and shoulders above the competition. From the first meeting, it was clear that Chris really gets the non-profit world, and that had a huge impact on our work together. His insight and responsiveness made him a thoughtful design partner throughout the entire experience. Chris made sure that MHAGC met its goals for the new website’s look and feel. And he’s been a supportive teacher as we’ve worked to maintain and manage content on the new site. I highly recommend his services to other non-profits seeking a skilled web designer.”

Chris is a gem to work with! He is quick, efficient and very responsive. He helps us think through creative ideas for our websites and executes the plan flawlessly. His skills are top notch and I would recommend his services to anyone!”

As a small non-profit with big tasks we needed a turn-key solution for our news site and Chris delivered! The process was efficient, responsive and cost-effective.”

Chris did a fantastic job with his revamp of our website. It’s crisper, more modern, and easier to navigate. We’ve gotten nothing but compliments about it. What visitors to the site don’t see is how wonderful Chris is to work with. He listened to what we needed and made the process easy and affordable, a real win-win for a small nonprofit like ours!”

Chris recognizes the importance of creating a website that does as much work as possible for an organization that’s already stretched in time and resources.

Hugely valuable and rare.”

As the executive director of a statewide non-profit with a very small staff, I rely on Chris to not only keep our website up and running smoothly, but also to take the helm when we need major changes on our site. Not long ago we were at a critical stage for our organization’s growth and branding. I knew I could trust Chris’ expertise at creating an engaging and user-friendly platform, and indeed he provided exactly what we needed and I had envisioned. Additionally, Chris is incredibly responsive whenever we have a question or website-related issue.”

We didn’t know what was possible until we met with Chris. He invited us to imagine with him. From our conversations, Chris was able to translate our aspirations for an online presence into a beautiful and friendly website. His design offers windows into our community.”

Working with Chris on to update and modernize our website was a great process. He brought a lot of creativity and new ideas while still honoring the core vision we had. Even with it being a complete site overhaul, the process felt fresh and even fun throughout the course of our work. Chris was always on call to help sort out issues and answer questions during and after completion. He never failed to impress me with his knowledge and ability to find unique approaches to any and all questions about form and functionality I’d throw at him.”

Working with Chris was the best decision I could have made for taking my website and business to the next level. Chris is an incredible listener, thoughtful problem-solver, and responsive designer. He desires to truly collaborate to deliver optimal results that meet—even exceed—expectations. I absolutely love my new website, and I cannot recommend Tomatillo Design more highly.”

I have been so impressed with Chris at Tomatillo Design, and thankful for his thorough, thoughtful, positive work on the Sisters’ Voices website. He had the site ready to go live well before expected, having listened to all our hopes and dreams, and having made all of them happen! He continues to stay on top of the details and to support us as we learn to use the site well. All the people who pointed us to Chris were right on — he is flexible, resourceful, and creative, and he knows his craft extremely well.”

Chris was the ideal person for our organization to work with on our website. His patience and expertise, combined with his experience working with other nonprofit organizations, supported and empowered us throughout the process. Since launching, my day to day work has been transformed by the fresh look and functionality of our new site, and the response from our supporters has been overwhelmingly enthusiastic!”

As a 100% volunteer led nonprofit, taking our website to the next level was a critical investment we knew we had to make. During the interview process, we felt that Chris was our best bet and we were right! His ability to listen, seek clarity, and provide us professional insights throughout the design process was amazing. Combine this with his professional demeanor, knowledge, skills, and use of best practices has built our capacity to keep our site fresh in better serving our stakeholders in the coming months and years.”

Working with Chris to build our new website was a complete pleasure. He was responsive, flexible and open-minded to the vision we had for our organization. The product he created is exemplary and we are more than pleased.”

Tomatillo Design has done exemplary work for me. I have nothing but the highest praise for Chris’ communication skills, his technical skills, his invaluable creative input , his warm and non-judgmental personality, and his timely work on our projects. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone who wants a sharp, modern, knowledgeable approach to creating a digital presence. Every year I have worked with Chris there is an opportunity to rethink and reshape the presentation. I know there are options out there for ‘do it yourself websites.’ In my opinion it is worth every cent to have it done right and have it maintained by a consummate professional. After all, the work Chris has done with me IS my face to the world. I want it to be professional, comprehensive, and visually engaging. You won’t be sorry.”

Chris was pivotal in our transition from updating an incredibly old, non-user-friendly website to a dynamic, clean, and highly functional new website. He was very responsive, thorough, and attentive to our branding needs. In addition, he has been very supportive and accessible as we have continued to work with him for maintenance and updates in the two years since he helped us create the new website.”

I was really impressed with how Chris interpreted my vague vision for a site and made it materialize in a way I would not have imagined myself. I love the clean look, the detail of the home page and believe it represents me and my work well. Thank you, Chris!”

Our old website was messy and cumbersome to navigate. Chris saved the day and created a beautiful new site with no hassle on our end. Easiest and smoothest website transition of all time!”

Chris’ work from 2016-2021 was instrumental in helping NC Health News transform itself from something that definitely looked like a blog to a news website that had polish and style. He worked with us on designing something that looked professional and helped our readers find stories more easily. 

But, really, it was behind the scenes that Chris was a superstar. He made himself available and always set reasonable expectations on timelines and delivery. Working with him was seamless and smooth, problems were addressed promptly and additions made on a reasonable timeline with minimal fuss. 

While I like my current platform, I do miss Chris’ customer service, always done with a smile and a sense of humor. I can’t recommend Chris’ services more highly to build your business’ website and manage your online presence!

Working with Tomatillo Design to develop our website exceeded expectations. We needed to develop the website in a matter of weeks, and Chris met the timeline with days to spare. He was highly responsive; patient and accepting of requested edits; expert in his knowledge and recommendations; and fully collaborative during the design and development processes. After the launch of the website, he remained available and helpful when issues arose, including providing informative videos to give our team the capacity to make edits going forward. We recommend Chris without reservations – especially to smaller organizations or those that have minimal experience with website design and development – and will engage him in a heartbeat for future efforts.”

We approached Chris with a unique and challenging job and could not be happier with the results. Chris has not only produced beautiful and functional websites for several of our congregations, each with different needs and styles, but he has also been a great guide and partner throughout the process. We recommend Chris and Tomatillo Design to anyone seeking web design services.”

Chris designed a search engine within our new website, which allows travelers to find the trip they are looking for. This has given us an amazing new tool and we’ve already gotten great feedback about how easy the site is to use! Thank you, Chris!”

Chris was incredibly easy and wonderful to work with. He took time to listen and meet with me on our vision and goals for our brand new website and executed it perfectly – he was able to really help me think through what we needed and wanted and propose new ideas I hadn’t thought about. Our new website was launched quickly and smoothly thanks to his hard work and creativity. He has continued to be readily available for ongoing support as needed.”

Working with Chris was the best decision I made as I got started with my political campaign. As a first-time candidate, there were a lot of questions about the best design and functionality for my website. Chris not only listened to my questions and concerns, but he went above and beyond to do his own research to make sure we were positioned to have our best digital foot forward as we launched our campaign. Having a clean, crisp, and great looking website has done wonders to raise my profile as I run in a competitive race in my community.”

Chris has created several websites for my nonprofit over the past decade, and his services have been invaluable. Before we met Chris, we paid exorbitant prices for complex websites that we could not change or edit ourselves, which meant they quickly went out of date. By contrast, Chris worked closely with us to understand our organization’s needs, and then he created simple but beautiful websites that we could easily update ourselves. His websites are extremely user-friendly and easy to work with. Chris is always available if we have problems or questions, and he is prompt and professional in resolving any issues. To top it all off, his prices are far more reasonable than any other web design service I’m aware of. I truly don’t know what we’d do without him.”
