The fact that we have had such a long association, over 12 years, with Smarta by Design is fine testimony in itself to the quality and excellence of their service and work. Committed, efficient, effective, genuinely respectful and understanding of the client and a great ability of ‘value-adding’ makes for a highly productive and professional business relationship for Catholic Mission.

It was always an absolute pleasure working with Smarta by Design and I would highly recommend them. They have a strategic and creative eye which is rarely matched in this game and great attention to detail. They encourage and relish a challenge and
work very collaboratively with their clients, creating true partnerships to achieve the best results. Nothing was ever
too much trouble.
