A Website in a Week? Only If It’s Built on Squarespace
You’re finally ready to launch (or re-launch) your business. You’ve got the offer. The idea. The vision.
So the next step is obvious: reach out to the handful of designers you’ve been low-key stalking on Instagram. You’re ready to get this thing rolling.
But then…the timelines hit.
8 to 12 weeks.
Minimum.
And now you’re stuck.
Do you wait it out? Move the launch? DIY it and hope for the best?
Meanwhile, we’re over here launching custom Squarespace websites in 7 days.
Because when you use the right platform (hi, Squarespace), and have a killer team (copywriter and designer), you actually can launch your website in just one week.
Why “Fast Website” Sounds Like a Scam
Let’s be honest, “fast website” can sound suspiciously close to “cheap template someone slapped your logo on at 1 a.m.” You’ve probably seen some version of this play out:
A “custom” site that somehow looks exactly like 27 others
Fun quippy copy that doesn’t actually help people decide to work with you
A churn-and-burn timeline where you’re left rushed, confused, and underwhelmed
So yeah, the skepticism is legit. There are “VIP days” and “website in a day” packages out there that don’t include the website fundamentals.
But here’s the problem: that fear gets lumped in with a bigger myth that:
If it’s fast, it can’t be thoughtful.
If it’s streamlined, it must be low quality
And that myth keeps a lot of businesses waiting months (or even years) to launch a website that could be working for them now.
Because the truth is your website doesn’t need five rounds of stakeholder feedback, a four-month timeline, seven freelancers you have to project manage, and “bespoke” build so complex you’re scared to even log into the backend.
What it needs is copy and design pedalling in the same direction…on a platform that isn’t trying to toss you off the bike.
Squarespace Lets Us Build Websites in Days, Not Months
So how are we launching strategic sites in 7 days without turning it into a stress sprint?
It’s because the whole ride is designed to be focused and calm. We’ve tested the process, tweaked it, and fine-tuned it with real clients who told us, “I actually need more space here” or “I knew exactly where we were in the project!”
The result is a Website In A Week that gives you…
time on your own to reflect and brain-dump (comfiest sweatpants encouraged)
time with us live to connect, talk things through, and make decisions
enough structure to keep the project moving without taking over your life
And it’s not just us saying that.
I probably couldn’t have picked a busier time to do my ‘website in a week’ (amidst a cross-Canada drive and launching the website the DAY I flew to Europe). But everything was straightforward and easy on my end :) This service is convenient, thorough, and thoughtful. You can trust that your brand’s vision will come to life in ONE WEEK!

I adored the concept of having this done in a week so the process wouldn’t drag on and on which can happen with website design. Samara and Isobel have excellent listening skills. They hone in on what’s most important and are capable of channeling that into design and copywriting that truly match your deepest desires. Plus, it’s completed quickly so you have results that are tangible and ready to share with your market right away!

We then pair this client-approved process with a platform that’s built for this pace – Squarespace. That combo is what keeps a 7-day website in the “this actually works” zone for both you and us, because you get:
Drag-and-drop design that leaves room for customization and simple coding
A clean, straightforward editor you’ll actually feel comfortable using after launch
Mobile responsiveness baked in, so your site looks good on the tiny screens too
Easy SEO features to help your new website actually bring in new visitors
Built-in integrations with email, ecommerce, and even appointment scheduling
No developer bottlenecks, which means no waiting two weeks to move one button
A one-week website doesn’t mean cutting corners. Squarespace makes the pace possible, and we make the whole thing feel…surprisingly smooth.
A 7-Day Squarespace Website That Looks Fully Custom? Yup
When we started building Website in a Week, we paid attention to what actually worked in real life, not just on a feature list. The patterns were pretty clear:
Our clients cared about looks and experience
They were happy to pay for one system, not 5 different add-ons
They wanted to feel comfortable logging in after launch
And Squarespace is the platform that can handle all of that.
So here’s how it works:
You bring your incredible business: offers, ideas, a general sense of what you want this next version to feel like. Then, we come in, ask intentional questions, plan together, write the words, design the flow, and build it all into a site that’s clean, clear, and keeps up with your business.
In seven days, you don’t just get “a site.” You get,
a home for your offers that matches where your business is headed
a platform you can update without becoming a developer yourself
a link you’re proudly sharing in every email, post, and DM
If you want to see what that looks like in the wild, take a spin through our 7-day Squarespace launches.
And if you’re ready for your own week, we’d love to ride this one with you.
