Designer Tip: Pitching Bold Templates to Your Clients

As a professional designer, you know: safe doesn’t always sell.
When a client comes to you wanting to “stand out,” they don’t mean slightly elevated beige. They want a website that sticks, in memory, in experience, and in how it positions their brand.

A bold template isn’t just about color or contrast. It’s about creating clarity, energy, and emotion. It's about giving your client the kind of online presence that:

  • Captures attention in a sea of sameness

  • Commands trust with confident, cohesive design

  • Drives action by making the user journey feel effortless and engaging

And with SquareKicker templates, you’re not locked into someone else’s idea of bold. You can dial it up, scale it back, or make it entirely your own, without writing custom code.

So if your client’s ready for more than just a clean layout and pretty fonts, start with a template that sets the tone. These are the best bold Squarespace templates for brands ready to take the lead in 2025.
