FAQs
I’m using Wordpress or Shopify (not Squarespace), will this be okay?
Yes it’s fine, the focus of this is creating a community of creatives. You get access to a training course which includes modules on using Squarespace.
What is your refund policy?
This is an online membership, so we do not usually provide refunds. But if you are unhappy with your purchase, please get in touch. You are able to easily cancel your membership at any time within your login portal.
I’m not a creative or artist running their own business/freelancing, is that OK?
This creative community is designed specifically for creatives who are freelancing/running their own business, but the definition of a creative is pretty broad. If you have a creative business that includes art or design, this will be perfect for you.
I have more questions, who can I ask?
Absolutely, please get in touch with me at any time regarding your questions at emma@theginkgotree.com.au
Are all the online training modules included all at once?
No, the modules will be uploaded every month so you are not overwhelmed with content. You will also have the members only Facebook group to discuss and ask questions.
