I've worked with Leif as part of a web marketing team at a global software company and have also used the services of Mastermynde Strategy in my job as a web marketing manager. In both capacities, his work has been skillful, highly professional, and on time. I've especially valued his focus on making sure processes are repeatable and efficient.
Mika Sissonen | Business Objects
Leif is one of my favourite vendors. His field -- search marketing and optimization -- is often mysterious and, even more often, mind-numbingly detailed. Yet Leif has an intuitive grasp of its ins and outs and explains every aspect of his work in easy to understand terms. Over the past year Leif has increased our traffic and, more importantly, helped us understand which online marketing dollars were spent effectively. We just wrapped up our 2010 planning and Leif figures prominently in all our online efforts. We look forward to another fruitful year with Leif and Mastermynde.
Alex Dunae | Oak Bay Marine Group
I have worked with Leif for several years, first as a colleague at Business Objects and, more recently, as a client at BuildDirect. Leif is an excellent web designer. He produces high-quality work that is timely and cost-effective. His solid understanding of business issues enables him to contribute strategically as well as technically.
David Jenkins | BuildDirect
Leif is a knowledgeable individual that has been very helpful with our I.T. or web based requests. He is generally good with work turn around - and always available for consultation. Leif is definately an asset to our needs.
Steven Hegedus | Vida Wellness Spas
I am greatly satisfied with the results of Leif's services. From the very start my website obtained more relevant traffic which has generated numerous opportunities for my company. It's been quite some time and the results are still coming through. Thanks Leif!
Aaron Heppell | Brand & Bridge
Although I haven't worked with Leif very long I truly appreciate his calm attitude and the fact that he understands and responds to an "Urgent" request ptomptly. He does good follow-up as well, he's a pleasure to work with.
Deanna Taylor | Libart Enclosure Systems
Leif has provided all aspects of web production and marketing for my company since 1998. In the past couple years he has focused mainly on SEO for my web sites. Leif has two amazing strengths. First, he can converse with me about technical matters in a language I can understand. Second, he has developed multi prong web marketing strategies that work. Leif's skills more than pay for themselves. I enjoy high rankings on google and a North American reach that allow me to have a very diversified clientele. I think the best testimonial I could give Leif is this: until 2 years ago, I used to spend marketing dollars on yellow pages, trade shows, print ads and allocate a small portion to web marketing. Now Leif gets 90% of my marketing budget because I can see the results. The return on investment by hiring Leif is huge. My sales have increased from 30-150% a year since employing him. He's no slouch at graphic design either!
Craig Davidiuk | Ultimate Promotions & Earth Imprints

Well, Leif Jason, Creative Director at Mastermynde Strategy has just performed his incredible magic so that my website, PhotographyTips.com, shows up in Google.com using "photography" as the search word, in the top ten. Think of that! My website shows up as Number 8 out of 115 million Google hits when you use "photography" as your search word! It is mind-boggling! It will lead to many new memberships, more product sales and much greater profitability. What else could I ask for? I am so happy.
Infectious Awareables, Inc. first established its online presence back in the internet dark ages of 1997. We were fortunate to be referred to Leif Jason a few years later, under some duress, and have been working with him seamlessly for many years now. I am pleased to be able to recommend his services without reservation. Leif, in my opinion, is an “outlier” in his profession, for while he is obviously technically capable, he also has excellent communication skills – unusual for a “geek,” and a critical advantage when working with us “civilians” who don’t know HTML from pc HELL. His work ethic is first class; he has always been there for us when time is of the essence, or any other time, for that matter. Rest assured your company will be well served with Leif Jason and Mastermynde on your team.

I had the pleasure of working with him many years ago at Business Objects and he's carried those qualities I admired then - almost encyclopedic knowledge of SEO/web marketing, an eye for design, easy to work with, efficient, smart, savvy - with him to Mastermynde. I and my clients feel like we're in expert hands with him, and in just months he can movee the needle and get results on your web strategy - he guides you through even the things you don't know enough to ask about!

Leif is extremely responsive and flexible, generous with his time and a great source of creative and technical advice. He thinks not just about the job at hand but how to best serve his clients over the long term. His contacts and experience have been extremely valuable and he is a pleasure to work with.
I've hired Leif dozens of times over the years as a contractor to do web site design and marketing. The most telling story that involves Leif had to do with him stepping up when the person I had lined up to fill in for me while I was away on my honeymoon flaked out on me at the last minute. Leif stepped in and told me not to worry about a thing. I didn't, and when I got back, he was able to deal with everything that came his way during my abscence. Very few people could have stepped in at that point and had my full trust, but Leif did and that's what makes him so valuable.
Leif is the first person we recommend when it comes to SEO services. Past clients have always been pleased with his work and service. You can be assured that your clients will be in good hands with Leif.

Leif is a fantastic employer. I really appreciate his availability, patience and guidance, and his sincere desire to send projects my way that he knows would be of interest to me. It is nice to see that such an expert in his field is also an expert in employee management.
