Mindwatering is a full-service design, development, and consulting company, serving a global clientele since 1996. In addition to developing print and digital promotional packages, we can also design a robust and extremely user-friendly custom web site for you that will be a portal for all of your creative outlets.

Regardless of how many or how few services you need, we offer an incredibly easy ala carte process, so you can bundle services together into a branding package for extra savings, or you can fill in the missing pieces with what you already have in place.

Who will handle all the back and forth between author/artist and vendor(s)? After we design your promotionals, we can handle all of the communication, project management, and file maintenance between you and our print vendors for quality control and peace of mind. Following the details of a job are especially important when it comes to outsourcing projects to outside print vendors, because there are often a lot of moving parts to the project.

Why do we prefer to handle the details? Well, for a few really important reasons. First, so our clients do not have the hassle and time consumption of playing the go-between between us, themselves, and the vendors. Second, so we can be confident that all of the files, films, and proofs are in order and to our client's exact specifications. Third, because Mindwatering/South Main Studios/South Main Media is truly a one-stop shop. We're highly seasoned at what we do, and we know how to precisely navigate the process so that in the end, our clients have a great product and feel good about what they're putting out there.

We aim to make each job as seamless and easy for our clients as possible. We always make this full service available to our clients, but we are also happy to provide our clients with their files and specs if they should choose to manage their outsourcing themselves. We are here to answer any questions and provide additional assistance, should the need arise.
