“I cannot sing Dan’s praises enough.

Dan’s creative vision and innovative approach is key in leading remarkable projects that look great, and leave a lasting impact. Dan also fosters a highly collaborative environment–seamlessly bringing together diverse teams and inspiring them (and ensuring them) to perform at their best. His effective communication skills, open-mindedness, and creative approach make him not only an extraordinary leader but also a remarkable team player.

Throughout our time working together, I have been consistently impressed with Dan’s flawless leadership and care for his team. He pushes micromanagement to the side, and really opens an environment for his team to grow, flourish and excel in their craft and expertise with guided direction when needed.

I wholeheartedly recommend Dan Case for any creative endeavors or leadership positions; he’s a genuine asset who will undoubtedly make a profound impact wherever their talents are applied.”

“Dan is a true leader. A CD for the people. A creative thinker who can drive multiple projects, manage difficult clients with a smile, and keep surprisingly calm in the face of mounting chaos.

He’s always quick to stand up for the good of the creative work—and the good of the company/client—and keeps his team motivated by giving the right mix of autonomy and/or supervision to the teammates who need more of one than the other.

He’s a rare, unflinchingly positive force in an industry that could use more of it. If you need a Creative Director and you haven’t talked to Dan—stop waiting and do it.”

“The best managers help their team members grow in their talents, lead by example, and create a safe space with which to share thoughts, ideas, and improvements—and Dan does all of those things and more.

A master at creative conception, I was continually floored by the memorable and innovative (yes, as a copywriter this is one instance I actually support using that word!) campaigns he crafted! His conception skills helped me become better at that crucial task myself, and also helped my copywriting grow and improve. And the best part...it made the work FUN and exciting! That’s what every creative craves.

Additionally, he leads with compassion. Agency life can be hectic and even combative, but Dan is always calm, cool, and kind. He’s really everything a creative manager should be and more!”

“I was so lucky to have worked with Dan at Refine Labs! He has such a strong imagination and was excellent in bringing the creative team through processes on time and producing high-quality work at the same time. Can’t say enough good things about Him!”

“Dan is a true creative strategist and leader — he provides valuable feedback that makes work better and pushes it across the finish line. Like all of the best leaders are, he’s an advocate for those underneath him, while also holding them accountable to a high standard of quality. Dan’s visual direction and expertise were invaluable in the strategy and brainstorming stages with many clients. Especially in the B2B space (where pushing creative boundaries requires building trust with clients and earning the right to take risks) Dan’s kind and educational spirit come in handy often — he’s got a natural way of breaking down complex topics and building buy-in. He’s a great teacher, a great creative partner, and a great advocate. If you get the chance to work with Dan, do it!”

“When he speaks, you listen. In my experience working with Dan, he’s a deep, creative thinker that applies that genius to his work, and shares it with those who work with him.

He’s highly talented in the arts, and I’ve seen firsthand how that work translates into success in the B2B marketing space. But he’s also respected and highly regarded as a manager and leader by his reports, and it’s clear that he invests the time in ensuring that everyone on his team grows.

I’m not at all creative, so I look to people like Dan for inspiration, and he’s the whole package. I would recommend him as a Creative Director, as an individual contributor, or even just as a consultant or creative advisor, drawing on his depth of experience. Work with him, if you can!”

“Dan Case is the best creative mind I’ve ever worked with. His ability to take concepts and develop messaging, branding, and tell stories from them is second to none. He’s a man of his word. He hits deadlines. He’s no drama. He flat-out nails the work. I couldn’t recommend him higher. If you’re a company or individual who needs creative work, stop looking. You’ve found it with Dan Case.”

“Dan hired me as a subcontractor on a large creative project. As creative lead, Dan is as innovative and creative as he is professional and a wonderful team member. I would recommend him to anyone seeking skillful creative strategy and practiced team leadership.”

“Dan is one of the best people I’ve ever worked with. My respect for him is enormous — both for the quality of his creative work and for the quality of his character. He improves and shapes the culture around him. He gave direction, vision, coherence, and beauty to our firm’s story, branding, design, and customer experience that we have been thriving on. Dan is also profoundly honest and kind, and he influences each person around him to excellence.”

“Dan Case is a rare combination talent – the heart of a storyteller, the sensibilities and taste of an award-winning designer, and the mind of a brilliant strategist. He creates highly compelling and effective campaigns, and he improves every brand he touches. ”

“Amazing to work with! He understands the digital process and cares about all the visuals. He is very flexible with his designs and a joy to be around.”

“Lock this guy in a closet for 3 days. Open it back up and you’ll have a modern, spacious living room with a walk out patio that overlooks an ocean that doesn’t exist yet.

I’ve seen this before, but never more so than Dan. He will take your crappiest assignment and turn it into something that everyone is trying to get their name on. And he will take your best assignments and make sure that everyone wants to keep their names on it.”

“Daniel Case is everything you’d want in a great creative. He brings his unique voice to every concept and design. He’s collaborative, works hard, pushes ideas and fosters his creativity by constantly seeking out new inspirations.
On top of all that he’s just a swell guy to be around.”

“If you’ve seen Dan’s portfolio, you don’t need to read my recommendation to know he’s groundbreakingly talented.

If you’ve met Dan in person, you don’t need to read my recommendation to know he’s one of the nicest people in advertising.

If you haven’t seen Dan’s portfolio or met him in person, you really should. Especially if you’re hiring. Because you, friend, will have found exactly who you’re looking for.”

“Dan is passionate about all things design related (typography, graphic design, furniture, architecture, and design-thinking). He would be an ideal candidate for a design oriented Art Director position at any creative shop. He is a hybrid of all things visual. Plus, he’s also a very nice guy.”

“Dan gets it. His design chops - second to none. He gets his hands dirty on every assignment and turns them into pure platinum. Not only he’s intelligent but very humble. I highly recommend him.”

“This guy: Dan is a joy to work with. He’s always encouraging, and his taste level is paramount (that’s right, I said “paramount.”) This dude is everything anyone would want in a creative director and/or designer. What sets Dan apart is his ability to strip down a design or idea into the most impactful attribute. Dan and I both come from the school of thought that art directors are always better when they can 1. draw and 2. design. Dan does both.”
