Dawson Design hear us RAR

RAR Certified Agency Dawson Design

We are very pleased about this validation, as it can only be gained following positive reviews by previous and existing clients, which is worth much more than any boast we can come up with (although we can be guilty of that as well).

Why Choose a RAR Certified Agency…

… i.e. Dawson Design. As it’s proof that we’ve been independently assessed by an outside organisation, based on testimonials from people we’ve worked with (both previously and ongoing), and judged to be reliable provider of high-quality, good-value services. Put simply, it means you can trust us to deliver what we say we will.

Also, RAR is up-to-date. As you can see by the logo, you only get 12 months’ grace until you either;

a) have your certification renewed because new people are continuing to rave about you, or

b) disappear from the register and have to hand back your logo and certificate, because you’ve not done anything good in the last year.

This means you can be sure that any positive news about an agency is recent, and not ten-year-old client quotes from days gone by.

Thanks to everyone that contributed to us reaching the RAR status, we will continue to maintain the high standards we’re (now officially) known for.

If you would like to discuss a project with RAR Certified Agency Dawson Design please get in touch!
