Your Marketing Looks Like You Made It in Microsoft Paint. We Can Fix That.
The free design course for marketers who are tired of their campaigns getting bottlenecked by design queues—and their DIY attempts looking… rough.
No credit card. No catch. Just knowledge.
"Let me save you
from the deep end!"
Let me paint you a picture 🎨
It's 4pm on a Tuesday. You have a BRILLIANT campaign idea. Chef's kiss. Actually viable. Could move the needle.
But it needs a graphic.
Your designer? Booked until February 2027 (or next Thursday, whichever comes first).
So you open Canva. Pick a template. Change the colors to your brand colors (they clash horrifically but you're committed now). Try 47 different fonts. Add a gradient because you saw one on Instagram once.
You show it to your coworker. They say "it's... good!"
Translation: It's bad, but they don't want to hurt your feelings.
You post it anyway.
A single tumbleweed rolls across your engagement metrics:
Sound familiar?
Yeah, we've all been there. The design queue is where good marketing ideas go to die. And when you try to do it yourself? Well... let's just say "quick and dirty" usually ends up being just dirty.
What if you could just... not suck at design?
Color Theory Fundamentals
Master the color wheel, understand primary, secondary, and tertiary colors. Learn the difference between warm and cool tones and why it matters.
Color Schemes That Actually Work
Complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary—learn all the color harmonies so you stop guessing and start designing with intention.
Typography That Doesn't Suck
Understand typefaces, fonts, and categories. Learn the anatomy of letters so you can pair fonts like a pro (not like a ransom note).
Layout & Composition Principles
Balance, contrast, hierarchy, emphasis, movement, repetition, and white space—the invisible rules that make good design look effortless.
Hands-On Canva Training
Apply everything you learn in Canva. Because theory is useless if you can't actually make the thing.

Who This Is For 🎯
This course is perfect if you:
- Have great campaign ideas that die waiting on design resources

- Spend 2+ hours on a single social post
- Want to move faster without sacrificing quality
- Need to communicate better with designers
- Are tired of being the bottleneck on your own campaigns
This course is NOT for:

FAQ âť“
I'm not creative. Can I really learn this?
Design isn’t about being “creative” (whatever that means). It’s about following principles. Contrast, alignment, repetition, proximity—these are rules, not artistic expressions. If you can follow a recipe, you can learn design fundamentals.
How is this different from just watching YouTube tutorials?
YouTube is great for random tips. This course gives you a complete SYSTEM. We’re not teaching you tricks—we’re teaching you principles you can apply to any project. Plus, it’s structured to build on itself, not just random disconnected lessons.
What tools do I need?
Will this replace my need for a designer?
No, and it shouldn’t. This makes you self-sufficient for 80% of routine assets. For complex work, rebrand projects, or anything mission-critical? You should still hire a professional.
Is this really free?
What if I don't have time to do it all in 4 weeks?
It’s self-paced with lifetime access. Do it in 4 weeks, 4 months, or 4 scattered sessions between meetings. Whatever works for you.
This course is free.
But you know what isn’t free? The cost of NOT learning this:
Campaign ideas that die in the design queue
2 hours per social post (that's 100+ hours per year)
Missed opportunities because you couldn't move fast enough
Looking unprofessional when you DIY without the skills
The course takes 8-12 hours total over 4 weeks.
How many hours are you currently LOSING to design bottlenecks?
Ready to Stop Being the Bottleneck on Your Own Campaigns?
- No credit card required
- Start immediately
- Lifetime access
Look, here's the deal:
This course won’t make you a designer. You won’t land a job at a design agency. You won’t win any awards.
But you WILL:
- Stop waiting on design queues for basic stuff
- Cut your asset production time by 60-80%
- Ship campaigns when the moment strikes
- Look more professional in everything you create
- Become more valuable to your team
- Actually understand what designers are talking about
And it’s free. So worst case? You spend a few hours learning something new and decide it’s not for you. Best case? You 10x your ability to execute campaigns.
The marketers who can move from idea to execution quickly are the ones who win.
This course helps you be one of them.
P.S. — Still not sure? Fair enough. Start with Week 1 and decide if it’s worth continuing. You’re not locked into anything. It’s free. Just… try it.
P.P.S. — If you’ve ever had a brilliant campaign idea die because you couldn’t get a graphic made in time, you know exactly why this matters. Don’t let it happen again.
