Ready to grow your small business or creative venture with an effective and affordable website — built for you in 5 days?
While custom-designed websites can cost upwards of $6,000+ and take several weeks to design and build, these one-week Squarespace websites are a bit different. Using a base template and preparing all the content in advance saves money and time.
Once the process starts I work on your website exclusively for 5 business days, creating it from scratch to completion. Then it just takes a couple of days to go live.
I don’t use stock-standard templates, I have built several templates that give most businesses a great presence online and simply…. work!
They are carefully designed to take visitors on an easy journey through your website, creating connection and removing any barriers to them buying from you or engaging in your services.

What you’ll need
Words, beautiful words
I’ll send you a content planner that you can use to work through the content for each page.
There are some restrictions in what goes where in order to keep the design looking good and to make it easy for people to navigate. The planner will help you keep your writing concise and effective.
Images that sell
Your images are incredibly important, they sell your business and tell your story. I will need a variety of images, you can use ones you have taken or stock photography. I can help you with resources for this.
The colours in your photos should compliment the rest of the design and your work/services.
Branding elements
This is so much more than just a logo, it is helpful for me to have brand colours, fonts and of course your logo.
The colours in your branding will influence the design of your website so it is best to start with these from the beginning.
How it works

Reach out to me
It’s helpful to know a bit more about you, fill this questionnaire in and then I’ll set up a time to chat. I can answer any questions you have and show you the base templates. If you decide to go ahead we’ll book your design slot in and organise the deposit.

Welcome info
Once I’ve booked in your design week I’ll send you through some info to get you going, this includes the content planner. You’ll also get a chance to have a one-hour meeting to work through ideas, create a plan and settle on a structure for your website. Then it’s over to you!

Prepare your content
This step is vital and must be done before your build week. Using the plan we made in your previous session you’ll prepare everything I need in terms of content. This means all the branding details, content and images. I’ll touch base with you two weeks out from your build week to answer any questions.
