About Knapsack Creative Co.
We’re on a mission to create the world’s best web design experience. Our speciality is building Squarespace websites for clients all around the US (and the world). Even though we’re a small team of seven, we build around 80 websites per year.
We’re known for our high-quality design work and unique customer experience. The proprietary web design process that we’ve developed since our founding in 2012 has removed common pain points in the web design process and enables us to build websites in as little as one day.
We also have a brand called StorySite where we design and sell Squarespace templates specifically for people who follow the StoryBrand marketing framework.
Our latest initiative is The Friday Habit podcast which helps promote The Friday Habit System – a system that we’ve developed that helps teams like ours set aside Fridays to work on improving their own business instead of doing client work.
