Windward Design Group designed my engaging website and marketing materials. Tina Marker is a very creative writer and does an excellent job of storytelling my business. She performed photo sessions with clients at my studio, collected testimonials, and paired all to music for a great visual that attracted new clients to my studio.

Tina also created strategic social media campaigns for me and manages my Facebook and Instagram accounts.

When I became a young widow three years ago, Tina even helped me write my husband’s death announcement.

Tina’s skills are rock star quality! I could not have ever marketed and built my business without her expertise. I am technology challenged and find Tina is always just a short phone call away to help me.

When I first arrived at Miami Valley Child Development Centers, Inc. in 2007, the program was in need of some rebranding as we started our journey together. Windward Design Group was selected to complete this for us.

The agency now has a crisp, clear new branding design. In addition to developing Mission Boards, Tina designed stationery/business cards for the staff as well as materials to use in presentations such as table tents and brochures.

Tina was able to assist the agency with media releases when needed and offered training to key staff about how to correspond with the media especially in times of crisis. She facilitated media coverage for the agency on several occasions and was consistently available to offer guidance as various issues needed attention.

Windward Design Group’s most outstanding work was the development of the agency’s Annual Reports for the last 12 years. This work incorporated all the requirements of the federal Office of Head Start as well as information about the agency and the Board of Trustees. Over the years, Tina won competition awards for the reports as she was recognized for the high-quality presentations evident in the reports.

In addition to all this marketing work, Tina is an excellent event manager. She personally coordinated the agency’s 50th Anniversary Celebration in 2015. This outstanding event, held at Sinclair’s Ponitz Center, highlighted the agency’s work since its opening in 1965. Nearly 300 people in the community attended.

Tina created and implemented many successful campaigns for Women in Business Networking from 2009 to 2014, until WiBN became a program of the Dayton Better Business Bureau. I credit Windward Design Group’s professional expertise, capabilities, marketing and PR impact, and innovative solutions to be instrumental in bringing the needed branding to WiBN.

Her expertise coupled with her collaborative and innovative spirit made her the go-to expert for our most significant projects. She single-handedly developed the branding of WiBN that assisted in increased growth of 300% within a two-year period by using forward-thinking strategies.

Tina is detail-oriented, organized, and always open to constructive feedback, making our business relationship both effortless and pleasant.
