Template: Ava Grand

“I love my website! I feel like it totally represents who I am and what I do and the vibe I wanted to capture.”

I knew I needed a change, and was feeling super stagnant. I couldn't put my finger on exactly what I was looking for in terms of design. I was lacking that specific vision, but this template helped me find it!

I have grown so much as a person and in my business over the past 2.5 years. I wanted my new website to reflect that. It's the perfect balance between professional, sophisticated, but also fun! It allows me to showcase my offers in an incredibly streamlined way. I feel extra creative and have my spark back! 

The DIY was so simple. Super straightforward and easy to follow. I feel extra creative and have my spark back!

“I feel like I finally have a little space on the internet that is 10000% me and represents my business so well.”

It was one of the first templates I had looked into. No matter how many templates I looked at, I kept coming back to it over and over again.

I didn't have a lot of money to spend on the website, so hiring someone to design/develop it was out of the question. Plus, I really like being able to have control over every aspect of my business and wanted to be sure I would have the knowledge to make changes and updates over time. The Big Cat Creative templates checked all the boxes. The cost, in my opinion, is very affordable for all the value you get.

The process was incredibly simple, and super organized. There is so much attention to detail in the guided process and resources that Big Cat Creative provides. I never felt confused or overwhelmed, and knowing that I could reach out if I did was a huge relief.

Template: Unearth

“I was intimated, but so excited for something new, and Big Cat Creative's step by step process eliminated that fear for me immediately.”

I wanted a template that felt fresh, modern, captivating, and immersive. Unearth was definitely that for me. It brings visual interest and playfulness without competing with the imagery. It was the perfect foundation to build from and customize as my own.

I love knowing that when potential couples visit my new site, they are getting an accurate representation of me and who Blnk Films is. I'm so excited and confident to continue adding to it. The money I invested into this template is going to payback tenfold.

It couldn't have been easier, I truly mean that. [The process] was so informational and goes through EVERY single step without skipping a thing. I found myself halfway through feeling comfortable to just take the reins and have fun with it. Seriously, anyone can do it!!

“The videos are a huge added bonus, as every single template I'd ever purchased in the past left you to figure out how to customize it all on your own.”

Big Cat Creative easily had the most chic, modern and professional designs I could find — especially for the price. Not only was I obsessed with the template, but I was also super excited to learn how such a look could be achieved.

I had a certain vibe in mind for the look I wanted to create, but my more limited understanding of Squarespace never allowed me to achieve something that I felt completely proud of.

I love my site, and am really excited to share it with others. I feel like it really represents & conveys my style, which is so important when it comes to asking others to trust me with their branding vibes.

Template: Belladonna

“I feel so proud of myself for taking the steps to create my dream website with the help of the incredible Belladonna template”

I was really drawn to the layout of the Belladonna template; when I viewed it as a template, I could immediately envision so many ways to display my photographic work and guide the reader to my galleries and blog. It felt fun, creative, and feminine, all qualities which mesh well with my business.

I liked my old website, but I had designed it myself in Squarespace and didn’t feel that it fully reflected the improved quality of my photography work. I finally feel that my site is truly reflective of what I want my business to look like and it makes me feel even more confident in my skills and offerings.

The tutorials were so easy to follow and it made the entire process so enticing. Once I finished, I felt so confident to make additional changes and customize my site more with my increased knowledge of Squarespace.

Template: Ava Grand

“I'll feel proud to direct people to my site”

I felt like Ava Grand was the one that tied in the most with my design vision. I could literally see my color palette and graphics woven into it.

Honestly, I hated my previous [website] and now it's been revamped I feel excited to grow my online home. I wanted something that felt more in keeping with my brand values and encompassed more of my personality. I have various products and services I want to offer in the future, so I wanted a site that would grow with me over the next couple of years

I knew your template kits would assist me in learning the basics of the platform, so it was a no-brainer to buy from you.

[The template was] really easy to install and very helpful in terms of the extra value you get if you're totally new or transitioning to SS 7.1. Getting to grips with the basics of 7.1 through installing this template was a total win for me!

“The whole Squarespace Template process from purchase to launch was super easy. Inspiring. Then back to easy again. And very exciting!”

I needed a website to support my newly launched copy and brand voice biz! I looked at a lot of templates. A LOT. But Big Cat Creative stood out from the crowd. Not only was the design ridiculously lovely to look at, but I also loved Erica's whole vibe.

Before I created my website, I felt like I was simply incapable of reaching my ideal clients in a way that would truly amp up my business, in a way that really felt like me. I felt behind and frustrated because there was nowhere I could really send anyone to showcase who I was and what Wordcraft Studio was all about.

[Now] I feel empowered, I feel motivated and I feel inspired to kick some major biz butt! I'm excited to reach out to potential clients and share who I am and what I can offer them.

“I feel like I got a crash course in web design along with my template and that knowledge is just priceless to me.”

This [template] was so different and refreshing. I love how it stood out and showcased the images and was so much more expressive. It really felt like me and meshed so well with how I wanted to be represented.

I have redone my website SO many times and have never been quite happy with it. I didn't have the skills to make a super customized website and I was nervous that if I hired someone else to do it it wouldn't be a true expression of me. I feel like I totally broke through that barrier with this template and made something that is super customized and professional but also a really true reflection of who I am and what the business I run is like.

Everything was explained so well and so thoroughly that I never had questions. I also was shocked at how many extra tips were in the guide. You weren't just sent off to fill in the text or add the photos of your website alone. There were so much extra info in there that was incredibly helpful. It was so much more than just a design template in the end.

Template: Gigi Rose

“SO EASY. Seriously, I think I launched my website in less than 3 days from purchasing the template.”

The Gigi Rose template really caught my eye because its beautiful simplicity and focus on imagery. I knew I wanted a template that I could add our bold brand colors to and it still be visually easy to look.

Big Cat Creative's templates stood out to me because they were unique compared to templates I was seeing on other websites. Soel Studio is also a start up company so I had a budget of around $200 to make my dream website. I truly feel like I have a custom made website for such an amazing price.

I'm so proud to show it off now, I feel like my brand identity is complete with this website. I am getting compliments on it regularly and that's such a great feeling! I feel like a weight is taken off of my shoulders and I can focus on other aspects of my business knowing that my website is doing it's job!

“The tutorials were super actionable and took my overwhelm from 90% down to 0%.”

Big Cat Creative templates are the ONLY ones I found that seemed to really match my personality and the vibe I was going for. The fact that the template was affordable (and came with matching social media graphics) was an A++ in my book.

Before purchasing a template from Big Cat Creative, I felt completely overwhelmed at the thought of starting a new website from scratch. Everything I read online said I HAD to use WordPress and it was honestly a major pain in the butt to figure out. I didn't want "building a website" to be the thing that held me back from launching my biz, so I knew I needed a plug-and-play template that did 80% of the work for me.

The thing that surprised me the most about Big Cat Creative is that it came with an entire mini-course that walks you through exactly how to update the template to match your style/branding. I’m not a tech person by any means so I love that there were video tutorials walking you through how to do literally everything—connecting social accounts, compressing images for better site speed (something I've NEVER done in the past).

“From the minute I clicked Purchase, I was given clear, easy-to-digest instructions for every single step.”

After a year in business, I was well overdue in getting my online presence going. I was missing out on reaching prospective clients and without a website, I had to go through the same spiel over and over again with people who had been referred to me.

I appreciated that I'd get to learn Squarespace in the process and could then really go in and make a templated site feel more custom. I also couldn't believe how much value I was getting for the cost. Once I got into the how-to/building process, I was blown away by how simple (and organized!!!!!) it all was.

Yes, it took quite a chuck of time to make it through the steps, but I have complete confidence that I've been equipped with the know-how to make my own changes going forward and adjust them to make them my own. I seriously cannot get over how great of an experience this was from start to finish.
