“My name is Michael Kern, with Shades of Texas Window Tinting, and I recently had the pleasure of working with Chris Valentine from Adeo Interactive. My overall experience working with Chris was extremely positive. I’m a little different than most, and consider myself savvy enough with marketing/technology to know what I need. Unlike most, I actually spend 5 months looking for a web designer who could deliver what I needed, which was a unique, customizable website that could still include the bells and whistles needed to drive business leads to my service-oriented business. After a frustrating span of denying many designers I found Adeo Interative. The difference between Chris and all the other numerous designers battling for my business was he was the first to literally ask what it is I was looking for in a designer (to see if we were a fit), NOT bombard me with all the things he could do for me. My answer was –customizable, unique, professional, a solid foundation of SEO, and the ability to have a CMS system to maintain the site myself. In addition to offering a full service package for web design at an incredibly reasonable price, Chris has an impressive talent for taking one’s vision and applying it. Furthermore, his expertise in his industry is fully applied to your needs as he makes the best recommendations to fulfill your vision. He was more than capable of understanding my specific needs for design/marketing and how that correlates to my business model. I was very impressed and extremely happy with the unique site we created, and the input from his design team. In fact he exceeded my expectations, which isn’t easy. From someone very picky who spent a ridiculous amount of time looking for the right web designer, I could not recommend going with any other business in Austin or elsewhere. Chris’s track record speaks for itself and after my experience I will recommend anyone looking for web service to Chris. Thanks Chris for turning my vision into reality and driving internet leads to my business from day one of our site launch! This site has already paid for itself after a few weeks! It’s been a pleasure working with you.”
Michael Kern, Marketing Manager

“Words cannot express how pleased we are with the work that was done by Adeo InterActive on our downtown walking tour of San Antonio. They offered great ideas and suggestions on making the project successful, and were flexible in helping us to stay consistent with our new branding campaign. The best part is that Adeo InterActive was available and present from start to finish, providing support and assistance to the end. The result is a great tour that we know will be enjoyed by visitors for years to come.”
Katrina Entzminger, Visitor Center Manager

“Adeo InterActive was a jewel to work with on our audio walking tour for Historic Downtown Bristol.

Moontoast
“Dear Busby Foundation, Lindsey and I have been so wonderfully blessed by your organization! The generous gift from the Busby Foundation has given our family a chance to catch our breath during this difficult journey. For many months prior to my final diagnosis of having bulbar ALS with limb onset, I had been struggling with my speech. My slurring speech and the depressing reality of having this horrible disease contributed to me falling significantly behind on our bills to the point that we were fearful of losing our house. We did not know how we were going to make “ends meet” before disability kicked in…thankfully The Busby Foundation stepped in and filled that gap! We cannot even count how many of our friends have recommended your foundation once they learned of my ALS diagnosis. We know you are a gift from God and an answer to our prayers! Words cannot express your impact on our family! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!”
Kirk Caldwell
Recipient of Busby Foundation gifting program
“Partnering with Adeo InterActive to develop several city walking tours for Connecticut’s Fairfield County CVB was definitely a good idea! Adeo InterActive not only drew upon its considerable tourism marketing expertise to provide creative suggestions but also proved adaptable, flexible and patient as we explored and refined our original concept. The user-friendly simplicity and colorful design of the walking tour pages have been met with delight and enthusiasm by visitors, staff and stakeholders. We are grateful to the Adeo InterActive professionals who understand the needs of the visitor and our objectives as a tourism agency and look forward to working with Adeo InterActive again.”
Catherine Sidor, Executive Director
Fairfield County Convention & Visitors Bureau
“The new site looks awesome. Great job Chris. Not only does it look great but it is extremely user friendly. This really is a huge step up. Great job! I know you put a ton of work into it!!! Thanks for your dedication!”
Brian R. Utley, President and CEO

“Chris, you deserve ALL of the credit for this great Busby Foundation website effort! You were tireless and I continue to be amazed at how hard you work to pull all of this together – kudos! Thanks, Chris, you are a special person.”
Jerry DeVries, Venture Partner

“I had the privilege of working with Chris Valentine on BiG Austin’s Big Idea Day – Business Plan Competition. Chris is a very detail oriented planner, and one who can clearly visualize multiple tasks occurring simultaneously. He did an outstanding job of briefing each presenter prior to their entering the stage and worked closely with me to ensure that we were both on the same page in reference to the timeline. I welcome the opportunity to work with a professional like Chris in the near future.”
Valerie A. Williams, President & CEO
Beyond the Big Day
“Chris Valentine is the consummate professional. I have worked with him for more than a year on various projects. After seeing him work for that time, I can say that he lands big projects, gets them done quickly, professionally and on time. He has the ability to conceive of (and carry out) large projects, but also is willing and able to focus on even the smallest detail. Chris has a quick wit, a unique view and a great sense of humor. I am honored to consider him both a colleague and a friend.”
Kris Gove, Senior Communications Specialist
Citizens Financial Group
“My experience working with ADEO Tours, specifically with Chris Valentine, was a very successful and pleasant one. After deciding to create a much need driving tour for St. Tammany Parish, a cluster of our historic and growing cities, we finalized the agreement with ADEO Tours. However, because we were planning to pay for this project using Hurricane Katrina relief funding, we gave Chris a very tight timeline to deliver the end product. From the beginning stages of the process, Chris kept us very informed, initiating weekly conference calls to discuss status. The conference calls and wealth of information really helped to push us through what we thought at one point would be an impossible deadline to meet. Working hard and remaining positive and focused, Chris immediately had a researcher and writer on board. In a world-wind tour of St. Tammany Parish, Chris and his writer, Susan Busa, traveled to our area for only one weekend, learning history, tasting food, experiencing culture and interviewing personalities. Always willing to go above and beyond, Chris and his team nailed the concept we were looking for and worked tirelessly to meet every request. Needless to say, not only did Chris get St. Tammany Parish a CD driving tour under very strict time constraints, but he delivered an end product that exceeded expectations. I would be happy to recommend his work to anyone looking for this type of service.”
LaDana Williams, Communications Manager
St. Tammany Parish Tourist Commission
“In July of 2009 I had the honor of working with Chris to develop and re-launch the Busby Foundation website (www.busbyals.org). Chris managed the entire process including: structuring the site map for the website, working with an advertising company to develop the graphical elements, arranging external resources for the website (PayPal, twitter, facebook, etc.), and coordinating my efforts to provide the text content. Chris is an excellent project manager with an admirable ability to develop a project timeline with milestones, multitask with collaborators at all levels, and simultaneously empower and hold accountable those on the team with the perfect balance of patience and determination. His enthusiasm and zeal are infectious, and those who work with him are made better in the process. I would gladly recommend him as a client or collaborator to anyone who needs consistent and quality results.”
