I'm currently volunteering at and I just got a freelance marketing project through this org's President (super serendipitously and it was because I had made such an amazing strategy deck!!). So I just wanted to thank you for passing down your wisdom and knowledge and literally changing lives.
Read MoreThe digital audit and strategy sections made me realize how much knowledge and skillset I already have to offer. The toolkit section was the most valuable as I learned a lot of new skills on how to run ads. The resource section has amazing tools to help organize the information, which I was previously confused about how to present effectively.
Read MoreI'm a senior copywriter, but I was really lacking a supportive mentor who could help me get out of my head during my creative process. This course definitely delivered on that; it's restored my confidence in listening to my own instincts and helped me with my creative process.
Read MoreI loved the opportunity to receive real, thoughtful feedback from Mindy and Sarah throughout the course. Their feedback allowed me to incrementally uplevel my designs and come away with a finished product I was really proud of. They're also the sweetest and it was so fun working with them as instructors after having collaborated with them previously as a client. <3
Read MoreI loved how the curriculum was structured, and getting to feel like I was learning 1:1 with Puno by my side was amazing. Diving into the coding side of things and discovering how much customization you can do with CSS was so satisfying. Honestly, this course was exactly what I needed to jumpstart my freelance web design business. It gave me an incredible foundation, and I’m so excited to see where things go from here!
Read MoreI loved the connection to web designers all around the world, the supportive community in Discord! People were always helping each other out with code snippets and giving each other feedback. I found Puno and the course teachers's feedback so valuable as well, I felt that I grew so much as a designer through their ample help.
Read MoreI think my favorite part was receiving such deep and thorough 1:1 feedback from Puno. Her insights were incredibly valuable, allowing me to understand my strengths and identify areas for improvement. Having the opportunity to make revisions based on her feedback really elevated my learning experience. Puno's personalized feedback made the course feel very tailored to my growth and development, which was truly invaluable.
Read MoreThis 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.
Read MoreI 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.
Read MoreMy 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.
Read MoreIt 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. So to actually have a course like this to understand the concepts, the building blocks behind the design, so that we can prepare a good design for the developers, so that they love us—they don’t hate us anymore.
Read MoreOur 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.
Read MoreMy 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.
Read MoreI 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!
Read MoreWhen 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. I've actually been able to structure a portfolio, land clients, and fulfill briefs thanks to the Creative Copywriting Course.
Read MoreMy 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.
Read MoreThis 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.
Read MoreI 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.
Read MoreCeilidh 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.
Read MoreCreating my portfolio was my favourite because I had full creative expression and could create something that reflected my values and vision! 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.
