Welcome

Let’s cut to the chase…

If you can’t find it, see it, read it, or understand it, marketing won’t work. The design and message must be clear, obvious, clean, simple…and be accessible to your audience.

At Eyegate Design, teamwork is key. It helps us accomplish what we need to do as quickly and effectively as possible.

We listen. We’re dedicated to finding out what your needs are. We want to know about you, your business, objectives, challenges, audience, and what you’ve already tried. Listening opens doors.

There is no cookie-cutter strategy. Every aspect of the project has to be custom and as individual as you are. Through research, communication, and imagination, we strategize ways to get your business noticed.

Our clients want results, and our creative, professional approach will help get them. No fillers. No clutter. No hidden messages or fine print. It’s all about creating a visual impact, a clear message and a lasting impression.

Thank you for visiting our site! Please check out our portfolio and see if what we do… can work for you.

Where did “Eyegate” come from?

You’re not the only one who’s curious…

Kim Murray (formerly Schanz) is from Ryegate, Montana. Since design is all about the visual eye, she merged the two to form “Eyegate”. Just a fun play on words…and it works!

Ryegate is a very small town (population of about 150… that’s not in thousands) in the center of the state; Kim grew up on a farm 13 miles south of town. Her graduating class had 10 people, which included three exchange students. She’s been driving since she was 5, she can help a cow give birth, and if she had her way, she’d probably eat hamburgers daily. Kim likes being ANYWHERE in the WORLD where opportunity knocks, as wanderlust is one of her passions. Kim’s family still lives in Montana. And yes…she watches (and finds hilarious flaws in…) Yellowstone.  Trust us when we tell you there’s no such thing as a quick trip to Custer from either Bozeman or Helena, for instance.) Eyegate Design is an incorporated company.
