Some more written testimonials we have received over the years!

"From business cards, to banners, signage, apparel, wedding invitations, and so much more, DPP is the perfect blend of creativity and professionalism to make your design ideas come to life! Tara and the team are awesome to work with and always do a top notch job." - Hannah Lacy

"In 2023 my husband and I used Design Print Promote to design and print our wedding invitations. I sent the owner, Tara, several pictures of various ideas and concepts I wanted to use for our wedding and she was able to combine and transform my ideas into this super cute wedding invite!! The back of the wedding invitation had all the specifics and a QR code you could scan to RSVP (which was an amazing idea that Tara came up with)! For privacy reasons I did not attach a photo of the back of the invitation for this review. I would highly considering working with Design Print Promote for any of your business needs as this small family-owned business was the perfect company to work with for our special day!" - Brittany Naden

She gives her time freely to help the youth in our community and has an artistic side that I wish I had! If you need a new logo, marketing material, or anything to help promote your business you can't go wrong if you hire her!" - Megan Smith, Vice President of Coastal Alabama Business Chamber www.mygulfcoastchamber.com


A big "thank you" to our friend, Tara McMeans, of Design, Print, Promote, for helping make our vision for our logo a reality! It looks even better next to that gold medal!!" -NUISANCE Group, Chef Chris Sherrill and Chandra Wright (Founders) https://www.facebook.com/NuisanceGroup

"Hey I don't normally do this because most comedy flyers I see make my eyes bleed, but I just wanted to give you mad props on that flyer. I think it looks amazing. And I'm not just saying that because I'm in it either, I think you really knocked it outta the park! Thanks!" -Chase Durousseau, Comedian www.myspace.com/chasecomedy

"I get fantastic, prompt, professional service with DPP. Tara is a jewel to work with, and I get a great value for high-quality work!" -Robert "Tito" Norris, DDS www.stoneoakortho.com

"Design Print Promote is the only company I know of that you don't have to sit with and design a flyer! They get the message across. I guess that's why its called Design Print Promote. Most companies are more concerned with how cute it looks versus getting a message across. Take it from someone who has been promoting for 7 years." -Lewis Sevilla, CEO Redline Ent. & Prod Inc. www.SAcarshow.com / www.SAdanceparty.com

"A company I can count on! It is so easy, I just send an email of what I want and I quickly get a design back. The final product is delivered to my door and is top quality! With all of the day to day responsibilities I have, it is nice to be able to know that when I use DPP the job gets done with ease and allows me to focus on other things within the business." -Carrie Sue Turner-Gray, M.B.A. Chief Financial Officer / Alternate Administrator Meta-Care Corporation www.meta-carecorp.com

"A couple of my fans got together and asked Tara (another fan) if she would make an e-flyer just so they could promote.. she did it and it looks great. She has her own design company so if you like her work... use her on some work you need done for flyers or anything that you may need to look great... wow!! Awesome job... Thanks" -Johnny Vicious www.johnnyvicious.com

"The nicest flyer I had seen in a while" -DJ Mea www.meamusic.com

"If you are in need of excellent professional quality graphics for logos, business cards, posters, flyers, etc... Design Print Promote is the company you will want to do business with. Tara McMeans of Design Print Promote designed an amazing logo for capAcity Entertainment. " -Lance McNeill, CEO capAcity Entertainment http://www.myspace.com/capacityentertainment

Winter 2026


As I sit down to write this newsletter, I’m filled with gratitude, reflection, and excitement for what’s ahead. This year marks 20 years of Design Print Promote, and that milestone is something we could have never reached without the incredible support of our clients, partners, friends, and community.


What started as a creative dream has grown into a business built on relationships, trust, and a shared love for bringing ideas to life. Over the past two decades, I’ve had the honor of working with small businesses, nonprofits, municipalities, festivals, and events, and helping to tell their stories. Every logo, banner, ad, shirt, sign, and campaign has been part of a bigger picture: supporting local dreams and strengthening the community we love.


Reaching this anniversary isn’t just about looking back, it’s about celebrating the people who made it possible. Your encouragement, referrals, collaboration, and belief in our work have meant more than you know. I’m incredibly thankful for each opportunity you’ve trusted DPP with along the way.


As we head into 2026, we are more inspired than ever. The future is full of new ideas, fresh collaborations, and meaningful projects, and I can’t wait to see what we’ll create together. Thank you for being part of this journey, for supporting a small business, and for allowing Design Print Promote to grow alongside you.


Here’s to 20 years of creativity, community, connection, and to an exciting new year!

❤︎ Tara
