Stand out online (while on a budget)!
Squarespace setup and strategy for small businesses: the easiest website project you’ll ever meet.
Looking to help your small business stand out online with a new website, but don’t have a huge budget for a full-fledged design and development project? Afraid that not having a huge budget means that your budding (or established!) business will have to settle for a mediocre-at-best website—that you may even have to DIY? If the thought of setting up your own website and customizing a template makes you break out into a cold sweat, then you’re in the right place!
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Questionnaire
You tell me all about your biz, your audience, and what you need your website to DO for you.
Step 2: Homework
I’ll assign your homework, which includes gathering all content and images for the various pages of your site.
Step 3: Setup + Design
My favorite! This is where I translate your vision onto the page, using your chosen Squarespace template.
Step 4: Launch
We go live! In fewer than 30 days you’ll be rocking a brand new web presence that is ready to work for you.
A snazzy, results-driven website, including:
Strategy
Including questionnaire and curated template selection
Page Setup
Including up to 8 unique web pages set up and styled
Design Customizations
Including adding in your logo, fonts, colors, and navigation
Imagery
Including custom hero image designed and curated photo recommendations
Contact, Social, and Tracking
Including contact form setup, social media integration, and Google Analytics installation
Launch
Including any necessary domain configurations and a custom training video
Investment: $2000 + Squarespace Fee

It’s all about the happy clients
Before we work together, I want to make sure you’re a total “heck yeah!” about collaborating. A huge part of working with a designer is making sure their design style matches your preferences, so I encourage you to take a look at some of my past projects (and happy clients!) to see if you think we’d be a good fit.
Frequently Asked Questions
If a Squarespace site sounds like a good fit for your small business, head over to my contact form and shoot me a message. Or you can email me directly at shannon@blazdesign.com to begin!
For all projects, a 50% deposit is required prior to project commencement, with the balance being due upon project completion. I accept all major credit cards (processed securely through Freshbooks), and personal checks can be accepted with prior approval. We can chat about the specifics or alternate payment arrangements if you have any questions!
I take on a limited number of Squarespace projects each month so we can ensure a 30 day launch. We’ll select a start date prior to kicking things off that works with your schedule and allows the necessary time for content gathering and feedback to ensure we wrap up in the 30 day time frame.
The biggest thing I expect from clients is honest, timely feedback. I also expect that you’re hiring me because you truly believe I’m the best gal for the job, and so, while your feedback is paramount to a finished product you’re 100% happy with, I expect you’ll allow me the creative freedom to do my job to the best of my ability.
Yep! You won’t be locked into any sort of contract with me once we wrap up your project. You will, however, still pay Squarespace’s monthly or yearly subscription fee (paid directly to Squarespace).
