What our clients say

“I enjoyed working with Liz and Moe at Hop Skip on my branding during a crucial time of transition. The work they did on my branding perfectly captured what I wanted to convey as a keynote speaker and an experienced consultant. Hop Skip came up with my brand colours and presentation that added a spark of energy and fun way for me to communicate with people. They provided all the tools, including a website, business cards and social media artwork. It has allowed me to present a professional and fun brand experience to clients and for my speaking opportunities. What I most enjoy is how accessible they are as a team to brainstorm ideas and figure out solutions to brand challenges.”

Mitzie Hunter, Founder, Advisor, Chief Strategist, Keynote Speaker, Fmr MPP Ontario and Education Minister

The Hop Skip team, and their partners, were professional, creative, engaging and really listened to us. We are so happy with the end result and feel the brand and website now aligns with the reputation we have in Western Canada.”
