Becoming a Squarespace Designer can completely change your life - it changed mine.

👋🏼 Hi, if we haven’t met before I’m David!

I built my first website about eight years ago.

I had no coding experience, no college degree, and no Bootcamp certificate.

I knew absolutely nothing about wireframes, code, launching websites, SEO, but after watching hundreds of tutorials, I figured out the basics.

Growing as a designer was a challenge at first.

Code scared me and I always felt like a bit of an imposter (“Should I even be a website designer??”)

On top of that, I had to pay all my bills, and try and maintain my health and social life.

That didn’t leave a lot time or resources to become a website designer.

But I knew I wanted the freedom & flexibility that being a sought-after designer could give me…

I remember seeing people who were crushing it, landing project after project, and having to say no to most opportunities as they only said yes to the ones they really found exciting.

This blew me away. So I kept trying.

About 8 months later, I landed my first client. I made $1,700 in a 17 minute phone call.

I remember looking at the phone after the call was complete and being baffled that in 17 minutes I had just made what would take me 3 weeks of full-time work at a job I disliked.

Fast-forward to today, and I have earned over $1 million from designing websites. I make more in one year alone than I would working my old corporate job for five years! I’ve been able to afford the lifestyle I want, support my family, and give to my church generously.

Today, I have worked with over 1,000 clients, manage my own team, and help 50k people a month find answers to all their burning Squarespace questions.

I genuinely love website design. I look forward to getting to work. I look forward to having meetings with my clients.

I am fortunate to have the opportunity to do what I truly enjoy, with a lot of freedom, fun, and flexibility.

I get daily messages from people saying my tutorials or guides have helped them.

And I make more money in a single month than my parents made in an entire year.

I know, it’s wild!

I think it’s fair to say that being a Squarespace Designer has completely changed my life.

And I fundamentally believe that if you take it seriously and figure out how to build websites, Squarespace can change your life too.

So how do you do it? How do yo unlock the power of a growing, sustainable, and profitable design career? Well, it’s pretty simple…

The Simple “Secret” Formula to $15k Projects

Everyone always wants to crack the code on freelance success. It seems like you can search forever without ever getting a clear answer on how to make money on their own terms.

The truth is that there is no magic secret. The answer isn’t luck, either.

HARD TRUTH: You can watch every YouTube video and read every article online, but the info you need isn’t there.

So, what’s missing?

You need quality relationships with people who understand you.

Connections guarantee you have the support, guidance, and advice you need to succeed. Building others up helps us grow ourselves.

Out of the hundreds of hours I’ve spent making websites and building my own business, I’ve realized that there is nothing more valuable than the right people.

Building relationships is what helped me go from:

• 0 freelance projects to 100s of them
• $0 in revenue to earning $30k+ in a few months
• Working 60 hours a week to 12 hours a week
• Living more fully and freely than I ever have before

Join Now

But you probably already knew that.

All of this stuff is easy in theory, but difficult in execution. Why?

If success is so easy, why isn’t everyone making money?

One word: time.

Becoming a profitable Squarespace designer isn’t a one-and-done deal. You don’t take a single course and start raking in thousands of dollars. You have to put in the work to develop the right skills and foster the right connections to create a sustainable business.

Most people are working 40 to 60+ hours a week. They don’t have time for side-gigs, no matter how much they want to break free from the never-ending “hustle culture.”

The little time they do have goes to family and friends. They don’t have 40+ hours a week to spend learning new skills and working for free until they get a good portfolio.

If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. And I’ve made this community to help you because I am you. I’ve been there, and I know there’s a way out so you can start living a life you love while doing work that’s fun, rewarding, and pays you better than any corporate job ever would.

“I just launched my first company for real content creating…. seeing the gold in me from the very beginning when I first met him and seeing where I'm at now, I would not at all be in this position. Every single question that I had, even any question that I didn't even think of, he completely answered all of it.”

And so much more!

We all know tools are essential, but if you don’t know how to apply them most effectively you miss out on their potential. That’s where our podcast comes in. We’ll deliver our top tips for scaling your business and growing as a designer, along with practical lessons to sharpen your skills.

I’ll be honest: You don’t need my community to grow as a designer.

You can learn plenty of skills yourself and become a successful entrepreneur by yourself. After all, that’s what I did. But flying solo doesn’t give you the tools and connections of a community.

By joining our group of friendly designers, you learn how to work smarter, not harder and build a business using professionally developed design methods.

Instead of struggling to teach yourself skills, or getting stuck in a design rut, you’ll always have tools, tips, and advice at your fingertips.

When you learn how to build a business and even manage your own team effectively, you free up time to do more of what you love. While you will grow to love your job, it won’t be the center of your universe anymore.

Instead, you’ll have more time and money to focus on doing what matters most to you. All the while, you’ll have a successful business that continually attracts new clients and higher revenue.

So the SDC Community does amazing things.
But will it work for me specifically?

We can’t tell you that our community will, without a doubt, make you rich or help you score a certain number of projects. There are always a lot of variables that impact someone’s success, and we would never make you promises that we can’t deliver on.

We may not be able to guarantee a certain income level or number of clients, but we can assure you that our resources and information are the best we have to offer, and they’re always kept up to date.

We’ve drawn from over 7 years of experience to help designers help themselves. Our goal is to teach them everything we wish we would have known when we first started out, so they can grow.

Our community is a support system for designers who are willing to work hard and write their own success stories. Nothing can replace hard work and dedication on your part.

Master Squarespace with an exclusive community of designers.

Who This Community Isn’t For

The SDC Community probably isn’t a good fit if…

➔ You aren’t willing to commit several hours a week to learning about design principles and making websites.

➔ You’re looking for a design hack that will get you rich without effort.

➔ You want to guarantee $10k, $15k, or more in revenue or grow your clients by a certain amount. No one can promise you that, and if they do, they’re likely just trying to take your money.

You must be willing to make design a part of your weekly routine. If you’re willing to do that, you can use our framework to strategically build a business that will continually attract new customers and opportunities.

Our goal is to show you what tools and resources work for us, so you can apply them.

With our framework, we’ll teach you the systems and techniques that help make running your business a lot easier and enjoyable.

Because this is what we know

The minute you unlock how to do this on your own, you will be unstoppable.

Who This Community Is Great For

If you’re serious about building your own career, then this could be the perfect opportunity for you. You need to be passionate about design, eager to learn, and willing to put in the work to succeed.

We recommend our community to:

➔ Those who want transformation

There’s a great quote that goes, “If you aren’t embarrassed by who you were 12 months ago, you aren’t growing.” This community is all about transformation, so you can look back and say, “Wow, I can’t believe I’ve grown so much!”

If you love to evolve and develop new skills, build new relationships, and set goals, this is the place for you.

➔ Those who understand the value of community

Building a successful career isn’t just about what you do but who you do it with. A community is where you grow and help others do the same. Just as you are willing to listen and learn, you should be willing to teach and inspire.

How much does this cost?

We know, the big question that’s been on your mind since you started thinking about joining. We’ve been shocked and amazed by how many people have signed up in such a short period of time.

To make it easier for you, we’ve created individual packages that suit different budget levels. This makes our community more accessible and helpful for everyone and anyone that wants to learn our framework.

You may look at our rates and wonder, “Okay, but is that really a good deal?” Well, typical 1:1 coaching is $10,000 quarterly. Many new designers aren’t even making that annually. So, we’ve made realistic packages for someone with a budget. You can also scale up as you grow to learn more and access even more benefits.

We want to be as transparent as possible, so we’ve put together a full chart with the complete breakdown of our packages and pricing models.

Not sure if you’re ready?

That’s okay! Because of our Safety Net Guarantee, you can just try the SDC Community for 30 days just to see if it works for you.

If it does, you’ll be delighted at your new ability to transform your life and find a community of like-minded designers to exponential grow your income and influence.

If that’s not your experience, simply send us a message within your first month of membership, and I will refund every penny you paid me (I’ll even cover the cost of your refund processing fee). That's my Safety Net Guarantee.
