Why Geist chose Everything Design

Geist — a Bangalore craft-beer brand — moved off an ancient, hard-to-update WordPress site onto a Webflow website the team could update themselves as new beers and events launched, and so customers could finally find where the beer is stocked.

"You solve every designer's pain point. I've put so much work into a design and I need someone to develop it exactly as I imagined — and usually you can't trust anyone to get your vision. What you did on Figma, I put on Webflow, exactly. You solved that connection that was always missing."

"We didn't have to go through the heartache of designing something and it not coming out in development. People could see Geist in the website — a natural extension of the brand onto another medium."

"I asked for help with MailChimp and you came straight back: 'that's not an area we're experts in.' Very refreshing — you clearly know where your capabilities lie."

The team also singled out the process: "The weekly summary emails really helped — when the wider team asked how the website was going, we always had the answer." Their one regret: "I just wish you'd been there five years ago."
