Created & taught by the designer behind @ilovecreatives social, James Junk!

❝There’s this moment where you realize most of the design work you’re doing isn’t posters or logos — it’s social content. Carousels, story ads, paid variants, versioning. And no one really teaches you how to do that part. You kind of just figure it out as you go. In this course, I walk through the workflows I’ve developed from actually designing for social — and give you a clear system you can use moving forward.❞ — James Junk

Who is this course for?

I’m a freelance designer.

I create social assets for brands, agencies, or clients. I want to work faster, build repeatable systems, and feel more confident designing within existing brand constraints.

I’m an in-house creative.

I ship high-volume social content on tight timelines. I want better workflows, clearer decision-making, and ways to maintain quality without burning out.

I work in a content-adjacent role.

I’m a social media manager, digital marketer, or project manager who collaborates closely with designers. I want hands-on design skills so I can design, edit, and communicate more effectively.

I’m a beginner-intermediate designer.

I know the basics of design tools and principles, but I want to specialize in social content. I’m looking to sharpen my instincts and understand how social design works in real-world settings.

I’m a brand designer expanding into social.

I’m comfortable with brand systems and identity work, but social content still feels fast and unfamiliar. I want to translate brand thinking into feed-ready design without starting from scratch every time.

I’m a designer stuck in “options mode”.

I can make things look good, but I struggle to decide what’s right. I want to get better at making clear design decisions, explaining my thinking, and moving projects forward with confidence.

Before ilovecreatives, James was a designer at Impact @impact, a digital media brand with 2.4M+ followers, where he designed award-winning, high-volume organic social content as well as co-branded partnership work with brands including Beyond Meat, KEEN, Strava, Hinge, Climate Power, and more.

His experience spans both organic and paid social design, with previous clients for social ad creative including Bulleit, Rémy Martin, Sundays for Dogs, Buoy, and Jungmaven.

In this course, James teaches the exact pipeline he uses to design, iterate, and deliver social content at scale—so you can graduate from “making posts” to confidently owning the process end-to-end.
