Neal Smoller

I've been working with Cody for well over 5 years. I've come to rely on him and his expertise for all branding aspects of my businesses. As we've matured, so has our branding. Time and time again he amazes me with the quality and creativity of his work. Looking back, the versatility to constantly improve our look has been a great asset. For a small business owner that wants to have top notch branding, there is no better option.

Cody is a true professional. He really listened to the details of what we wanted to accomplish and presented us with creative ideas. He's intuitive and very knowledgeable on branding a business, and we have received dozens of compliments on our website as well as our menu layout that Cody helped design. Customers have said that they find our website extremely user friendly and among the best local website they've seen. Furthermore Cody was very easy to get in touch with and completed all work in a timely fashion. On a scale of 1-10, I'd give him a 10! We've recommended Cody to many others and will continue to do so!

Jack Scotti

Cody Schatzle has a holistic understanding of web design that's hard to come by. He thoughtfully balanced functionality and aesthetics to give us something that looked great and worked even better. Taking the time to understand of our specific business goals helped him build an end product that we couldn't be happier with. He was ridiculously speedy in his execution and tremendously helpful throughout the project and even after it had launched.

Cody has a terrific design sense, keeps his commitments, explains technology in a way that the lay-person can easily understand, shows up on time and is all in all incredibly helpful, going above and beyond.

Laura Massari

I always get compliments that I have a beautiful site, and other tech people compliment that it's user friendly and has a great mobile version. I've seen many other websites all going that route now too & I really think that my site was more mobile friendly than some MAJOR retailer competitors of mine.

Cody has taught me how to manage orders on my site and is always available to help me when I need something. I've also found out that he has great ideas for graphics as well and has helped me with some marketing and branding. You are in good hands with Cody.

Maranatha Human Services Logo Mark

We were looking to overhaul our Not-for-Profit website which had started to look outdated. With our old website we had to go through a secondary party to change our content (something that could be costly and time consuming) so it was important this time around to find a web designer who could build in Wordpress. It was also important that our new site was modern and showcased what we do as an agency through a variety of media (video, pictures, etc.). When we found Cody of Query Creative we knew we had come to the right place. Not only were his quotes reasonable, but he was able to redo our site through the platform we desired while giving us a fresh design. He also helped us rebrand ourselves by creating a new logo that better reflected who we are. We were so pleased that we also had all our new stationary and business cards designed by him.

If you want to take your site to the next level I highly recommend going with Query Creative. You'll get an impressive and quality site that will push your business to the next level.

Jon Zeltsman

Down to Earth was wrapping up on a re-branding project and a management systems project. We needed someone who understood both graphic design and database design to bring our website to life. Cody turned out to be the guy. He executed beautifully on the visual and designed a back end that captures the data from our management system to drive the content of our website. Cody designed an easy interface so we can update the site in-house and on demand. He's there to train or trouble shoot as needed.

Dawn Siebel

Cody has created two websites for me since 2010. As an artist, how I present myself visually online matters intensely. One site was built from scratch and required eight pages and 343 separate subpages, each with its own image, each able to accept comments from readers. After he successfully created that site, Cody rebuilt my original artist website, visually and functionally improving what came before. I now update both sites as needed, but I am grateful that Cody has always been at the ready should I run into any questions or troubles. I can recommend him without qualification!

Mike Lund

I am pleased to call Cody a friend and someone I call on for advice. He is sharp all around -- just leave him alone and let him work. He's one of those people you should not try to micromanage or question too heavily. Let him be, and he'll give you beautiful work.

Linda Lendvay

Cody redesigned our website and made it really pop. He listened carefully to what we needed, who we were trying reach, and helped us to make it all less complicated. We are a student government, and our website serves many purposes for our current students, as well as those searching for the right college to attend. Most importantly, the site is as adaptable as our audience.

Query Creative is at the forefront of the digital world for many reasons. First and foremost, the knowledge base and talent of their team is evident in all of the great work they've produced. Often times businesses think they need one particular solution. However, a company like Query is often able to open their clients eyes to other possibilities and solutions that they previously didn't know were possible. Query thinks ahead for its clients because they care deeply about the clients success. Aside from their talent, what carries them to the top of the digital world is their unwavering work ethic and dedication to sticking to their word and deadlines. We have not encountered another company that works as efficiently and as precisely as Query Creative. No matter what the job, no matter what the time limitation, Query comes through every time - they also somehow are able to deliver a picture perfect product that exceeds standards & expectations each and every time. We are very thankful for our relationship with Query Creative and look forward to many years of working together.

Our website was 10 years old and we needed a facelift. Cody was all ears for what we wanted and delivered a well needed fresh face to The Ranch PROshop. It’s exactly what we wanted and more! It has been easy for us when we need changes or additions, we just email him what we want and before we know it, bam!! it’s done. Great job with great service!

After interviewing several candidates found through online research, we chose Cody to develop our website. We found him to be creative, responsive and sincere. He was reliable and completed the task in a timely manner. Cody took an unusual product and made it interesting and appealing, and we have subsequently received many compliments on the site. When our new product line was introduced, we again hired Cody to develop the logo and integrate the information into our website. He has also designed related palm cards and business cards. Results in all of our dealings have exceeded expectations.

As Co-coordinator of the Minnewaska Distance Swimmers Association (MDSA) I was charged with getting our > 2400 member database online. Members needed the ability to renew membership, pay online, and maintain individual membership data. We only had an Excel file of all our members, active and inactive, with a variety of individual member information—all of which needed to be captured and manipulated for mailing purposes. Thanks to Cody’s knowledge of and expertise in database management we now have a streamlined member renewal and payment process, plus a variety of mailing list options for contacting specific groups within our membership. To any organization that needs a sustainable online membership process, or to anyone who wants a well designed web site, with or without the ability to collect data, I highly recommend Cody Schatzle.

Just ASK CODY. He doesn't need a lot of direction. Solves problems. Back end, front end. Never disappoints. He does it all. I have worked with Cody for 5 years. 2 websites, 14 monthly dashboards, 48+ blogs, and tweaking my social media platforms as needed. Most recently, did a quick turn-around making my website and content mobile ready. His word is his guarantee.
