“I have had the pleasure of having Derek Peacock of D. Peacock Studios take over my Social Media marketing for my company, Business Plans & More, Inc. In a short amount of time, he has set up and integrated most all of the popular Social Media sites and associated softwares to totally integrate with my website and my marketing plan, including Linked-In, Facebook, Twitter, WordPress (Blog), You-Tube, my website and probably others that I have left out. I have already started to receive referrals for my services as a result of Derek’s work. I highly recommend Derek if you are considering maximizing your Social Media marketing impact.
Thanks, Derek!

“It has been a pleasure working with Derek. I contacted Derek looking for Social Media direction for my start-up business. Derek offered what I was looking for and much more! He asked very detailed questions to find out what my goals were and what my vision was for my teen cafe. He turned around and offered a very detailed growth plan for my business and really put a positive twist on things that I had not seen. I highly recommend Derek. He is very supportive of small businesses and very active in the community. I met Derek through the Gwinnett County Chamber of Commerce. I look forward to working with Derek again.” May 3, 2010

“I found Derek on Craigs List, as I was looking for a graphic designer for my website MyRapAudition.com . To this day, I still tell people it was like finding a diamond in a field of stones. After suffering through numerous undependable, untrustworthy, and downright untalented individuals – finding Derek was truly a gift and a blessing. Right from the get go, I could tell there was something special about him – he cared about my project, he wanted to make it great. Not only did he bring a special skill set that I was looking for, he also had the ability to listen to what I wanted and transform that into something even better than I could have imagined. And when obstacles appeared (as they always do), he took the extra time and diligence that was required to solve these, which ultimately took the project to levels which I couldn’t even have invisioned. I have worked with Derek for a year and a half now and will certainly continue to do so – my only concern is others will find what a truly talented and gifted designer/marketer/business person he is and I will have to share him with others.

1^st Brent Brooks,
hired Derek as a Social Media Marketing in 2010

“I met Derek at the Gwinnett Chamber of Commerce of which we are both active members.

My company has expanded and needed a way to cross-promote the various arms of the core business. Derek worked hand-in-hand with my website developers to link various forms of social media onto the main website (there are two). He also set up my YouTube channel, my blogs, and several Facebook Group pages to create “neighborhoods” for the variety of my clientele. He linked my Twitter, LinkedIn, multiple Facebook pages, blogs, YouTube and email to each other for easy updating and access. And he did it all in about 1-2 weeks. He followed up regularly via email and telephone, and personally met with me twice to train me on every aspect of my new social media empire.

The real icing on the cake with Derek was the fact that he spent a great deal of time graphically creating unique backgrounds and page designs for all of my social media pages. He solicited my input along the way, utilized photos I already had and offered suggestions for improvement along the way.

I am already starting a new project with D. Peacock Studios and would highly recommend him to anyone that wants to build a web and internet presence.
