BIGSKY PRINTING

During the initial design Simon helped us focus on what we want our site for and what we wanted it to do for us, he also guided us through the work we needed to do to supply him with the necessary resources. His knowledge and implementation of measures to increase the number of customers who find us via searches and visit our site has resulted in a steady stream of enquires and consequent design and print work. We now have a very prominent presence on the web in our particular sector. I have no hesitation in highly recommending fluidstate to anyone who needs a partner of integrity in the design, implementation and marketing of their website.

DR. ULLA SEBASTIAN

Simon has worked patiently and diligently with me to achieve the web presence that I wanted for promoting my coaching, training and therapy practice. I have received very positive feedback about the clarity, beauty and lightness of my new web sites and am highly impressed by Simon’s web design and technical skills. The result is a web presence that my visitors find engaging, thus encouraging them to contact me to discuss their needs. I am also impressed by Simon’s willingness and ability to share his knowledge, helping me to learn the how to maintain and manage my own web sites.

FABFOODPIX

Client statement from 2007:

I asked fluidstate™ to develop an on-line stock image library through which I can sell my food photography. Fabfoodpix.com is now one of the leading libraries for selling high quality food images. We have over 50 1st place rankings in Google and the site now receives around 70,000 visits per month with no paid advertising. Simon Bowen has played a central role in developing the on-line business strategy and traffic-building systems and is an indispensable member of the fabfoodpix team. I would recommend him and his fluidstate team to anyone who is serious about starting a new Internet venture.

THE FINDHORN FOUNDATION

The fluidstate™ team played a central role in redesigning our website, rethinking our web presence strategy and dealing with technical aspects of our site solution. They demonstrated the incredible ability to understand our needs and vision and then with commitment and patience turn it into a reality. fluidstate™ also marketed the website after the redesign and is largely responsible for doubling the number of visitors to our site within 6 months of the launch. Visit our site and see the miracle for yourself.

GLOBAL CITIZEN COACHING

Working with Simon at fluidstate™ has been a wonderful pleasure! In his calm but direct "coaching" manner, he focused on what was important to me in building my website, while making me aware of many critical issues that I needed to take into consideration. He challenged me to do much more with my site than I originally had planned at this stage and graciously helped me over the bumps. My investment in strategic Internet consulting and web design expertise has resulted in a savvy, professional website that completely reflects the true nature of my Global Citizen Coaching business. Simon's web expertise, advice and service is top notch! I know I can depend on Simon!

CAROLA SPLETTSTÖßER, PAINTER

When Simon Bowen from fluidstate™ developed my website I got into a 'fluid state' myself: sorting out all the things I had actually done in my life, sifting out what I wanted to present, and feeling much better about myself at the end of it! That's because Simon is not just a wizard when it comes to intuiting what to do with the material you give him and putting it all into a wonderfully creative website - as a web master he is like a very gentle and experienced midwife helping you along to birth your baby...this guy knows his steps and guides you well.

fluidstate™ (formerly Tarantula) provided creative design solutions for The British Council, The Natural History Museum and The Australian Museum while working on The Kaleidoscope of life website project. I was impressed by the commitment, enthusiasm, creativity and technical expertise of the fluidstate™ team.
