Client: Dead River Coffee
Date: November 2010
Task: Web Design, CMS, E-CommerceClient Testimonial:We at Dead River Coffee called on Obadiah at Middle Ear Media for a web design consult after looking over a number of locally owned web sites and asking for the opinions of people we trust. The experience of working together has been good to say the least.
Our requests of Middle Ear Media were both very specific and very vague. All were handled with aplomb and grace. When a request could not be fulfilled within the confines of the budget or the state of the art, the reasons were explained and alternatives suggested to accomplish the desired goal or effect.
We asked for a fully functional web site we could “grow into” and alter to fit as we polished our skills. Middle Ear Media provided us with what we wanted, well within our budget, and has followed up with help and suggestions as we move along.

Sisu Spine, LLC
Client: Sisu Spine, LLC
Date: December 2010
Task: Web DevelopmentClient Testimonial: I’ve worked with several web developers, and I’m very impressed with Middle Ear Media’s attention to detail, the quality of their work, and their speed. Their approach of gathering input in a thorough questionnaire to better understand customer needs and how the website will be used is a practice more developers should apply.
When I chose Middle Ear Media for my latest business website I was under a severe time crunch, so there was no margin for error as we approached the target date. I was concerned, as I had become accustomed to excessive delays arising from a general lack of attention to detail among web developers. Many are competent artists but poor at execution. I had no such issues with Middle Ear Media. They delivered quality work on schedule and on budget.
I strongly recommend Middle Ear Media to other business owners who need a professional, thoughtful, thorough and efficient web developer.
