What My Clients Say
Thank you so much for all you have done! The site looks lovely and fresh. It is functional on computers, tablets, and phone and will allow us to display our growing digital content resource links and information, and all the activities of the Society on an easy to navigate site. We love it and we are getting good comments from users.

Ledyard Historical Society
Libraries Online, Inc., a 30-member library consortium, worked with Kirsten to completely overhaul its website. Thanks to her keen ability to genuinely listen to what we wanted, as well as her talent for design and navigation, the end result was both elegant and effective. Not only do we look forward to working with Kirsten again, we’ve recommended On Trend to other organizations looking for a rethinking of their web presence.

I hired Kirsten for her professional content writing skills that a client of mine was needing assistance with. Right from the start she was a blessing to have on my team. Her experience and love for writing really shines through her work. I also admired her capability to write about a variety of topics and industries, even those she wasn’t experienced in. I look forward to working more with her in the future and recommend her for any of your content writing needs.

Kirsten was the developer for the Brian House website. She worked with our IT professional to enable website integration with financial services such as event ticketing and donations, as well as our graphic designer to achieve and maintain brand consistency. Kirsten was always willing to collaborate with other partners on ideas, with the goal of making our vision come to life on our website. She has been part of the “Dream Team” at Brian House.

and Development, Brian House, Inc.
Kirsten has been a god-send to my business. She advised me on branding colors, proofread a few newsletters, and calmly walked me through some challenging issues in WordPress. She also provides consultation on my business when needed. Not only is Kirsten knowledgeable, but she is easy to work with, calm and has great ideas and suggestions. She’s a highly-valued business partner.

Kirsten created a personal website for me, and the result has received great feedback. She was both skilled and patient, and we worked together well. If you want technical ability combined with a good eye for aesthetics, she’s an excellent choice.
George Bradley, Author and Poet
Kirsten Carbone created a fantastic website for my online jewelry design business. My website is professionally done, creative and well-organized. She is very knowledgeable, articulate and easy to work with. I especially like the fact that Kirsten is very patient with clients, such as myself, who are technologically compromised; she explains everything and is very approachable when you need to get a hold of her for help. I highly recommend On Trend for all your website needs.
Christine Barclay, Jewelry Designer and Owner
Rayne New England Creations
I have been self-employed for over 30 years, owning and operating two separate business entities. I always felt I needed to do everything myself if I wanted it done right. After a few unsuccessful attempts to get marketing help, I struck Gold.
Kirsten was understanding of my concerns from the start. We work at a pace that makes me confident I made the right choice. Kirsten has successfully completed several projects for me, on budget and in a shorter time than expected. She has helped me with brand assets such as a new logo, business cards and brochures. She has also developed a new website for my business and continues to consult with me on content creation and other business development.
As my business has grown, Kirsten’s roles have evolved. Working with On Trend is seamless and I consider her a valued part of my business.

Kirsten edited my draft manuscript for its final pass. Her turnaround was fast and thorough, and I felt confident turning it in to my literary agent. The final product was worthy of a publisher’s time. I appreciated Kirsten’s professionalism.
Thomas Coleman Harmon, Writer
Kirsten is a true professional. She is very talented at promotion and social media, and she increased traffic to my website greatly. She is detail-oriented and on-point.
Amanda Cushman, Chef and
Culinary Instructor
Kirsten’s help led me to my new website, which has many more capabilities and allows me to be found more easily on the internet. She showed her value with upgrading images on my website and created some valuable Facebook ads. She also wrote some great blog articles, which were well-received by my audience. She was an asset to my company
Paul Heyman, Owner
Affordable Fashion Readers
Kirsten worked on projects relating to communication, public relations and grant-writing. In all endeavors she showed herself to be competent, and most important, effective. She established our intergroup communications process, which is still in use today, organized outreach programs, and we received a number of sizable grants due to her diligent efforts.
Stephen Bruce, Phd, PHR, Director
Con Brio Choral Society
It is my pleasure to recommend Kirsten Carbone as a web designer. She is professional, enthusiastic and detail-oriented. I particularly appreciated her hands-on approach. In a world of texting and digital communication, Kirsten met with me face-to-face and truly listened to my concerns. I felt that we worked together as a team, and that’s a welcome asset for any small business. I recommend her without reservation and encourage you to hire her as part of your creative team.

Merlo’s Fine Foods
Kirsten put in a lot of time and artistic energy to help refine my image and it shows. The newsletter looks wonderful. The decorative touches add a lot and her photos are out of this world. She is a pleasure to work with.
Jill Peterson, Small Business Owner
Kirsten is an excellent writer, with a special interest in food. She is also a very good photographer. In 2013, as her web design business began growing, I asked Kirsten to help me with a website of my own. She patiently worked with me and was always punctual with her correspondence and updates. I highly recommend her ability as a website designer for small businesses and non-profits. Kirsten easily grasps the message that her clients want to convey and is a conscientious manager of her client’s content.
Jil Nelson, Social Media Strategist
Kirsten is a conscientious and patient person who cares about the success of her client’s business. She has been more than helpful in an area I know nothing about (social media), and she has guided me through the process of getting my business set up and personalizing my website. Yikes! Thanks to Kirsten, I am able to keep it all going.
