I've taken many design-related courses, and this one stands out as the best by far. It's an incredibly useful skill to have, and even if you don't become a Squarespace web designer, you'll gain valuable insights into navigating challenges without frustration and learning how to activate your creative vision and turn it into something real. These skills are applicable not only in various creative careers but also in life in general. I'm genuinely so glad that I took this course and highly recommend it to anyone who's interested.

This course was genuinely healing work. Going to be so real, there were moments where I wanted to give up, give in, and toss off my little fantasy web design top hat. However, I did not. I learned first that I was not alone; I had a whole community of people on the Discord channel who had either figured it out or were willing to help. There were also times when I wanted to challenge myself and see if I could figure it out on my own. Spoiler alert: I did! Let me tell you, those breakthrough moments boosted my self-confidence.

During the course, I gained extensive knowledge about Squarespace, web design, freelancing, and, unexpectedly, myself. I realized I had been imposing unnecessary constraints on my growth as a designer and as a person. Working in a job with rigid expectations and processes had inadvertently led me to box myself in. This course helped me break free from those limitations and explore new possibilities. It also inspired me to take the graphic design course to explore more and lean into this creative side of myself.

My skill set is more aligned toward analytics and research rather than creative writing. I had the most fun researching brands I had an interest in, doing a deep dive into their promotional materials, determining a tone of voice, and analyzing them more than creating copy for them. I also figured out my own personal TOV which gave me more insight into myself. I used this opportunity as a means of being more creative and expressive.

There are many favourite things I can highlight about this course. Working through the assignments and coming out with a portfolio I can actually use to gain clients. Gaining skills and knowledge of what goes into a real life copywriting brief. Getting actionable feedback from Caitland and Tasha. Both ladies being on hand to answer my silly questions 😁

It has been great to actually have proper knowledge about the store object, the product object, the collection object, to really learn about all of these, technically, what is available to be manipulated, to what extent can we manipulate it. I had a good time looking into the theme “Spoons” because Megumi has a custom font selector written in there. The basic Dawn doesn’t have that customization. It has been great for me to look into the code and to see how Megumi implemented the custom code into the theme settings. That has been great to really see what are the possibilities to offer to clients.

Our ROI on ILC ad's have been INSANE the last year. I think I could probably stop marketing my business all together and just send in the occasional newsletter ad and we'd be more than fine.

This course opened my eyes to what's possible for me as a designer and freelancer. I never thought I could become a web designer because my background isn't in art or design, but I learned that's simply not true. If you're on the fence, ask yourself if you'd rather stay in the comfort of where you are or if you're tired of daydreaming about where you could be.
My confidence in my taste as a designer has skyrocketed! I also feel so, so confident navigating around Squarespace. I can now look at a gorgeous Squarespace site and have a pretty solid idea of how the designer built it (whether that be with custom code or using sneaky block settings!). This course is a GAME-CHANGER.

I was finally able to learn and understand CSS. With the course, it was less overwhelming than learning by myself. The lessons were simple, easy to follow and fun! Now I find CSS and code fun to play with!

When I started to receive constructive and positive feedback from my teachers it was incredibly validating and made me think "wow, I think I can actually do this!". Once I got that confidence I was surprised how inspired and motivated I was to keep going.
Developing writing for a consistent fictional client was really fun and helped to give a lot of structure to the exercises in the course. I've actually been able to structure a portfolio, land clients, and fulfill briefs thanks to the Creative Copywriting Course.

My favorite thing about the course is getting direct 1:1 critiques and time with Puno and the team is the best thing by far. So many of us work in a vacuum - either with ourselves or clients. Getting that friendly and structured 3rd party to weigh in is immeasurable.

This course was so incredibly insightful. It gave me a different look and perspective on social that I haven’t seen before. Joellen made tackling a social strategy seem so easy, and I especially appreciated how in-detail the lessons go for building reports. Not to mention the real-world advice I couldn't have found anywhere else. Joellen truly is an expert and just as importantly, she’s hilarious. 10/10.

I have tried many courses before and they can be a snooze with the length of the videos, delivery, and tone. This course was divided into digestible pieces that made this easy to refer back to when I needed to be reminded of something while infused with Megumi's fun personality which kept me up and energetic to follow along.
The first client I took on after the course was a queer small business brand that I won dress giveaways from. I always felt bad because these dresses are stunning and not cheap - but now I've been able to pay them back and support them with my new skills!

Ceilidh is an incredible and super experienced instructor, getting insight into her way of working is invaluable. You can take this course with any level of experience; it’s perfect for anyone who’s never opened Google Analytics to someone who works as a digital marketer. It was great to review the foundation pieces and then get granular, insightful info and instructions from someone who’s worked with many high level brands.
The templates are really game changing. They make it easier to understand the data, present marketing ideas, and also offer a new way of thinking about the digital marketing process by walking through every aspect from analytics to creative content.

The business section was a huge eye opener as I had never been taught the skills on finance or how to estimate projects based on tracking my time. This is going to be so important for the future and how to navigate the business side of things.
I have had so many people reaching out to work on projects and on brands from my portfolio. It feels amazing to be working freelance with such creativity.

The format of the class is one my favorite things. ilovecreatives crushes e-learning so hard that it doesn't feel like e-learning. Being a visual learner I loved getting walked through the nitty gritty. I would never have learned 5% of what I did in this class if I tried to absorb it through blogs/forums or even a traditional class.

Having the 1:1 time with the TAs and Puno with all that industry knowledge and experience was so incredibly valuable and I can already feel myself getting better at designing. Puno makes the course content itself so fun!! Which is so important as its all self-paced. I also love that once you've accessed the course, you also have access to a whole world of like-minded creatives, inspiration and resources that you can redeem your rewards for, so your learning doesn't actually end when you finish the course.

I learned the most about myself when creating a custom site for my therapy practice. I learned about the colors I'm drawn to, the images I wish for folks to resonate with and see themselves in, and overall how design can help me tell the stories I wish to tell.
