Squarespace Websites for Ambitious Women
Turn one of our premium Squarespace templates into a conversion-focused website that makes your business stand out among the competition
The Customization Process
01
Choose Your Template
Choose one of our premium templates for your website. Your choice will be finalized at onboarding so you have time to be sure before we start.
02
Workbook & Assets
Work through the workbook to gather your branding and to write copy for each of the pages. You should dedicate a week or so for this part - it will take the longest.
03
Customization
The template will remain in our Squarespace Circle account through customization. Once we have all of your assets, this part should take about a week.
04
Revision Round
Once customization is complete, you will have five days to go through the website to make adjustments to your colors, fonts and copy.
05
Template Transfer
When your project is complete, we’ll transfer the template to your Squarespace account. This will start your 3-month trial so you can launch when you’re ready.
06
Support Period
Once you have the template, you can connect your domain and subscribe when you’re ready. You’ll get 30 days of email support for questions.
Customization projects are asynchronous. We’ll communicate via email and inside the Google doc workbook. No Zoom calls required.

All of our templates have the same elements, just configured in different ways depending on the design. Templates also contain the same functionality. So choosing a template comes down to these things:
The layout of the pages: Each page of a template follows a similar flow for design continuity. Consider the kinds of information you need your website to have and choose the template that best accommodates it. Keep in mind that the template will be adjusted for size and spacing during customization (no matter who does it) and you will be able to make any additional changes once your template is in your account.
The template's purpose: The majority of our templates are universal and can be used for any kind of service provider business. There are a few that are designed with more specific businesses in mind. That doesn't mean you can't adapt the template to your own business.
The overall design: Which design catches your eye? Focus on structure and large design elements. Can you picture your content and imagery in that configuration?
Don't focus on the template's color palette, fonts or imagery as those will be changed during customization. Instead, focus on structure, design and flow.
Take your time in choosing because once a template is purchased it cannot be changed.

Choose where to put your website involves a lot of factors beyond the aesthetics. The Squarespace platform provides everything you need to get your business online.
A Self-Contained Platform: Unlike WordPress, Squarespace comes with everything you need to create your website. No plugins required.
Drag-and-Drop Builder: Easily place your elements wherever you want them and create layers that add dimension to your pages.
No Outside Hosting: Though you can purchase your domain outside Squarespace, you don’t need an extra hosting account for your website.
Integrated Shop: Want to sell digital (or even physical) products? Squarespace has everything you need for eCommerce.
Email Marketing: Keep everything on one platform with Squarespace’s email marketing, which is managed along with your website.
Native Analytics: See how your website is stacking up right inside your dashboard with Squarespace’s real-time data.
