Contractor Testimonials

”What I liked most about working with Sam was the transparency surrounding new ideas.

Neither one of us needed to sugar-coat anything, because we both shared a common goal; making something great, not only for the client, but their users as well.

Sam brings her own skillset to the table and it enhanced mine, it didn’t compete with it.

I loved that. I’ve worked with tons of people, and often times I see them trying add ideas for the sake of adding ideas. Not Sam. She only added ideas that aligned with the strategy we were using as our compass through the project. That kept momentum going.

Payment was made on the terms we agreed upon, which is all I ever ask. Legend.

I was extremely satisfied with Sword & Spark, and I’m happy to call them a partner of BisonTongue. I’d happily run alongside this business again when that time comes, and I’m sure it will. “
