Launch Day: David Alex of Launch Happy

No Surprises

The founder of the Squarespace hub and SEO agency talks building and nourishing community.

“True growth comes in community, when there are people pushing you forward.” It’s this quote that makes David Alex not only one of our very favorite collaborators, but the perfect guest for our first episode of No Surprises Season 3, which focuses on community. (And thanks to his SEO expertise, he’s one of our most essential collaborators, too.)

We launch the new season by sitting down with David — the founder of Launch Happy, a Squarespace and SEO resource hub. With his hands in so many parts of the web design experience — including building Squarespace sites, creating communities, content creation and the oh-so-essential SEO — we relish the chance to chat with David about building a business, leading a community, trusting your intuition and letting the bird fly, fly away (even when there’s big money involved).

David also discusses collaboration versus competition in a community, and we dig in the idea of starting before you’re ready — an especially hard task when you’re working with, you know, people.

Welcome to Season 3!
