Could not recommend more highly! I utilized the ilovecreatives community to find a videographer for a brand video. I worked with Shawn to get a brief description up on their newsletter and received direct emails from creatives within a couple of hours. We ended up working with incredible filmmaker, Brennan King. He was very professional, was able to work within our budget and timeline, and was overall just a great person to work with.
Looking forward to using this community more in the future and highly recommend to anyone looking for super talented creatives!
Since graduating from the course I've made about $60K-$70K in NZD.
What the Squarespace Design Course has allowed me to do is break the imposter syndrome of "Oh, but it's a website builder" and realize that I'm actually an expert. So because I'm an expert I'm able to charge $5 - $8k for a website.
Read MoreSince taking the Squarespace Design Course I’ve made about $15k on web designs, but I plan to do waaaaayyyy more now that I have all these skills in my back pocket! I was also able to get my profile up on ilovecreatives, which has meant, on average, an extra 50 people checking out my website every month! And we all know exposure in web designing is as important as location in real estate!
Read MoreI'm predominantly a brand designer who only started offering SS design as an add-on in the fall. It's been a great additional revenue stream because I'm able to book larger packages with new clients and work with old clients a second time. Also, I made my investment in the course back entirely after completing my first project ($1500) within two months of finishing the course.
Read MoreThis course has really blown me away! I have learned so much and not just with Squarespace but full-on life lesson stuff. For the first time, I've actually felt comfortable and confident in what I am doing and pursuing and it has taught me how to embrace and enjoy the challenges. That's how I know it's REAL good! Tips for the Community: Don't think twice about it. DO IT! It is worth every minute and dollar.
Read MoreI was looking for an interior designer to join my multidisciplinary design firm and posted an ad with ilovecreatives. The candidates that found me through ilovecreatives were all really creative with diverse backgrounds which I loved seeing. I ended up hiring someone who saw my posting on ilovecreatives and I couldn't be happier with the fit. Thank you for helping me find such a wonderful person to join my team!
Read MoreI joined a Super Productive Time session to give me no excuse to continue working on website 3.2 in the Squarespace Design Course after a long hiatus.
I got about half of the website done during the time period, all while working alongside other creatives and Super Productive People.
I really enjoyed the course format — from video tutorials, step-by-step guides to my little astro person (so cute!). This course not only teaches you design, and introduces you to some coding, but also teaches you how to research, investigate, and problem-solve on your own which is a crucial skill to being a freelancer or working solo.

I'd been wanting to pivot from my career path in digital marketing agency life and felt very alone and unsure of myself. I just worked with my first paid client and this community is a great one to be a part of, regardless of where you are in your design journey.
Read MoreA couple of weeks ago, I signed the biggest project I've gotten to date for $5,000, which is a combination of social media and web design. At this point, l know I have the skills. I can design you a cool website and I feel pretty confident in that. So to ask for that much money, I'm like, yeah, I can do that.
Read MoreI’m a graphic designer and I’ve been using Squarespace before this course, but I often felt stuck or my sites looked too much like the templates; in the end, they weren’t what I envision them to be. Then I decided to take this course and I’M SO GLAD I did it! I’ve learned SO MUCH and I feel much more confident about using Squarespace now.
Read MoreIn Level 1, you show us perfectly well the basics and how to search in the code and I really like the detective side of it. 🕵🏻♀️ Squarespace is not enough known in France and that's a shame but thanks to ILC, I feel prepared and motivated to continue my reconversion as a Squarespace Designer. 🙂 Thank you again Puno and thank you to the entire amazing team ✨❤️
Read MoreAt my last agency, I was in a team of 8 creatives but only a few were actually designers. In the Squarespace Design Course, it was so nice to be with other designers in a non-competitive environment. Everyone was empathetic and helpful, and literally the world’s nicest people! Also, being able to ask people questions about code can save you hours of research time.
