Mariah Kaercher - Owner / Operator

Pikes Peak Ranch

“Working with OverTide Creative has been an absolute game-changer for us as a growing small business! From the very beginning, their team took the time to understand our vision, our values, and what makes our ranch unique. They transformed our brand with a stunning new identity, a beautifully designed website, and engaging content that truly tells our story.

Their creativity and attention to detail were unmatched—every element, from the visuals to the messaging, perfectly captured the essence of our ranch. Not only did they elevate our online presence, but they also helped us connect with our audience in a more meaningful way. The feedback we’ve received from our customers has been phenomenal!

We can't recommend OverTide Marketing and Design Services enough. If you’re looking for a team that’s professional, talented, and genuinely invested in your success, look no further.”


Jamie Merrick - Project Manager

Orange Pegs Growth Marketing

“Sara and Charlie are exceptional professionals who consistently deliver high-quality work. As a project manager at a growth marketing agency, I have hired them multiple times across several accounts, and they have exceeded expectations every time.

Sara is a highly skilled copywriter with a talent for crafting engaging, conversion-driven content. She has a keen ability to incorporate essential keywords while speaking directly to the target audience. Charlie’s graphic design work is equally impressive—his creativity and attention to detail have brought our projects to life beautifully.

They are reliable, meet tight deadlines without compromising quality, and have always left my clients thrilled with their work. If you're considering hiring them, know that you’ll receive professional, detail-oriented service that truly makes an impact.”


Josh Gettler - Founder

Ace the Moon

“The team at OverTide Creative is a gift. I met them early on when I started acethemoon.com and have been working with them ever since. Charlie understood the concept right away, and created some of our best selling, most fun apparel designs; including our Tennis NoMad collection. 

We have since designed many other graphics together, and continue to develop super fun ideas that drive sales and evoke positive and happy vibes with our audience.”
