2022 Best of Michigan

November 19, 2022

Normally, we share articles that are beneficial for other business owners and will hopefully help guide some of your business decisions. Well, this post is going to be a little different. We are very proud of this year and the efforts we have made trying to support our clients the best we can. Well, all of that hard work has paid off. We have been awarded with a 2022 Best of Michigan Award by UpCity. Please read the article below and contact us if you would like to talk with us about any projects that you may have.


The UpCity “Best of” Awards have returned after a successful inaugural year in 2021. To commemorate the top 50 B2B providers in each U.S. state and Canadian province, the UpCity “Best of” Award highlights the tremendous work being done by our partners and more in their local area. 


Awards are given based on the
UpCity Recommendability Rating, which was developed to determine a B2B service provider’s credibility and trustworthiness, giving UpCity the confidence to recommend them to potential buyers seeking their services. 


We are proud to reveal that
Speck Designs has been recognized as a Best of Michigan Award winner by UpCity!


UpCity is a B2B online marketplace that connects businesses to trustworthy service providers.


With 70,000+ listed providers—from digital marketing agencies, consulting firms, development specialists, and many more—over 1.5 million businesses have used UpCity to find exceptional partners for their needs. 


UpCity’s proprietary algorithm pulls from digital data points like reviews (both on UpCity and other third-party review sites), rankings in relevant search results, domain authority, website speed, and user experience to connect businesses with high-quality service providers like us. 


Jen Gadus, VP of Product & Creative at UpCity, had this to say about Speck Designs:


  • “From website development to high-quality creative design, there’s seemingly nothing that Speck Designs can’t do. I’m proud to name them a 2022 Best Of Award winner. Congratulations!” —Jen Gadus, VP of Product & Creative, UpCity 


This honor has been possible, in part by
our 5-star review rating on UpCity. Here is one of our favorite pieces of feedback we’ve received from our excellent clients:


  • “Working with Speck designs was fantastic. Steven took the time to explain the process, and how to make our ideas a reality. Steven was a pleasure to work with. His knowledge and expertise made the project better than we could have hoped for since we don't have much background in technology and website development. Wieber Lumber cannot recommend Speck Designs highly enough; The quality of work, communication, and overall experience continue to be top-notch.” - Todd H., October 2022


Thank you to UpCity for naming us a
2022 Best of Award winner. We’re incredibly proud to be named one of the best companies in our area. Thank you to all of our family, friends, and customers who have helped us get to where we are at today.
