Gecko Designs’ Staff Current Favorite Songs

February 1, 2022 Dylan Office Culture

William Cowper once said, “variety is the very spice of life, that gives it all its flavor” and the staff at Gecko Designs is about as spicy as it comes.

When I first started working for Gecko Designs, I immediately felt at home and was welcomed into the family with open arms. Over the course of my first year with the company, I have found countless areas that we all have in common – an important piece to the puzzle when it comes to a healthy work culture. What I didn’t realize, at first, was how wildly diverse we are as a team, as well!

With 11 people on staff, coming from all walks of life, we thought it would be fun to try a little social experiment. I asked each of them to tell me what their current favorite song is, so that I could compile a music playlist to reflect our tastes. I was shocked to see how eclectic the list was!

Even the responses to my request varied. Take a moment to think about it. If I asked you to give me a song, just one, that was your current favorite – forget about your all-time favorite song, that question seemed to derail the experiment as there are way too many to choose from – would you be able to quickly come up with a song? Some of our staff were able to give me an answer right away, while others tried to negotiate; “Does it have to be just one song?”…”Can I give you a song from a few different genres?”…”Can I get back to you? This is going to take some heavy soul searching.”

It turns out that our motley crew (pun intended) of designers, developers, and project managers have something in common – but it certainly isn’t our tastes in music! It’s our passion for that which makes us smile inside and out. Though not all of us enjoyed every song that was submitted by our fellow staffers, we all laughed and appreciated the insight that the experiment provided into what we’re all bopping away to in our AirPods. We’ll see what happens when I open Pandora’s Box and ask what their favorite foods are!

So, here is the list of the current favorite songs from Gecko Designs staff!

Now, I present the question to you! If you had to choose one song that is your current favorite, what would it be?

Gecko Designs did an amazing job creating our new logo. When the initial concepts didn’t quite match our vision, they went above and beyond to provide fresh ideas until we found the perfect fit. Their creativity, patience, and professionalism made the process seamless. Highly recommend!

We engaged with Gecko Designs for logo/branding and a static website. Their process was smooth, predictable, and yielded the results we wanted. We would highly recommend Gecko Designs and look forward to working with them again!

I have worked with other website designers who did not listen to my concerns nor take the time to explain to me what the process entailed and the mutual goals we were trying to accomplish with my firm website. Also, after the website went live they returned my calls and answered my emails - wow that did not happen with other companies before. Nor was i shuffled off to multiple minions whom i needed to educate again and again about the services my law firm provides. Our main contact Maggie M. has remained our main contact and she has been great to work with - very patient with a guy who started practicing law when faxes were the cutting edge of technology. Finally. Gecko provided onsite training which will help us manage many things on our own without the need to incur additional fees in the future. i highly recommend this organization.

The Converge Foundation team really enjoyed working with Gecko Designs. It was our first foray into a professional website, and we had lots of ideas and much to consider. The folks at Gecko guided us through the process and we ended with a product that not only met our needs but was visually pleasing and easy to navigate. Our foundation works with a wide array of persons with varying abilities, so it was important for our foundation to have a website that was accessible. Gecko had the tools and background to support that objective.

Because the service we received greatly exceeded our expectations; I wish more stars could be added to this Gecko review. When our firm, Briggs Architecture, relocated to Missoula in 2016, our website and brand did not reflect the desired image. Gecko listened to us, understood our mission, and helped us breakdown what seemed to be an insurmountable problem into manageable pieces and then brought it all together creatively. Gabe, Melissa, Kate and the whole Gecko team continue to update our website and manage our Google presence. They are very professional and fun to work with and I am more than happy to refer Gecko as the best provider with whom we've worked.
