All I want for Christmas is…


Hi there, Reader!

The end of the year can be pretty hectic – how are you holding up?

If it feels like you’re just trying to hang on until Christmas, I’m right there with you. Between clients trying to squeeze into your calendar before the end of the year, hustling to check off your 2022 goals, and solidifying your plans for growth in 2023, it can be tough to slow down and sink into the spirit of the season.

☝️ Let’s try to steal some of that Buddy the Elf energy, ok?!

As you may or may not be aware, I’m getting ready to launch my first program at the beginning of 2023 – and while it’s taken up a ton of space on my calendar and in my brain, I’m SO excited about it!

If you’re thinking, “Wait a sec Erica, this is the first I’m hearing about this,” you can learn more about it here. It’s called Showit Shortcuts, and it contains everything you need to know about expanding the Showit platform with code – over 30 unique plugins along with in-depth tutorials about how to use and customize them!

Since I opened Seedling Studio, I’ve been incredibly passionate about helping designers and business owners who don’t have coding/tech chops create the websites of their dreams.

Nowadays, you don’t have to have a computer science degree to create a website. BUT, the more you know about the technology behind the websites you create, the better you’ll be able to create user experiences that go above and beyond to serve your clients.

While the full curriculum of Showit Shortcuts won’t be ready until February, the pre-sale is launching in less than a month!! 🤩 It’ll contain instant access to the first four modules of the program at an insanely discounted price, so be sure to hop on the waitlist if you’re not on it already!


In the meantime, I’m sending you love and well wishes for an amazing end to your year!

*We’re proud affiliates for some of the products mentioned in this email, and we receive a small commission from each sale.

Hi , As both a website designer and developer, I talk a lot about what it takes to create a website that’s both beautiful and functional. Websites aren’t just meant to be pretty online spaces – they can and should be your business’s most effective sales tool! To make that happen, we can’t just be throwing website pages together willy-nilly. In fact, some of the most important work that goes into creating a website happens before we ever start talking about color palettes, content, and website...

Hey there Reader, The other day, I was reviewing my LinkedIn profile (as one does when trying to embody *PEAK* professionalism as a solopreneur), and I decided to scroll allll the way back in time to my first job... Back to the good old days when I was collecting cash in the In N' Out drive-thru. And as I reminisced, letting the burger-scented waves of nostalgia wash over me, something caught my attention on my computer screen. "2 yrs 4 mos" The amount of time I was employed at In N' Out....

Hey there Reader, With all the craziness that went into our first-ever launch of Showit Shortcuts, I almost forgot to celebrate the fact that Seedling Studio turned TWO! If my business were a baby, it would be walking, talking, and tearing up my office right now. Proud mom moment. 🥲 So, I thought it would be cute and on-theme to share two big lessons I've learned from these last two years serving a spectrum of service providers, creatives, and organizations with high-converting website design...
