FAQ

common questions.

What is launchpad and who is it for?
launchpad is our strategy product, a one-off six-week engagement for recruitment agencies without a structured marketing plan. We define your ICP and positioning, audit your brand and tech, and build a campaign strategy with a 30/60/90-day roadmap to run it.
What do I actually get at the end of launchpad?
21 deliverables across research, strategy and outputs, including your ICP definition, value proposition, brand voice document, 12 messaging frameworks, a competitor positioning map, channel priority matrix, content pillars and a week-by-week 30/60/90-day roadmap. We present it in a strategy deck and set it up in a Teamwork workspace you can edit and share.
How long does launchpad take?
Six weeks from start to finish, across eight stages: discovery, insight, positioning, audit, planning, direction, output and accountability. After delivery you also get a 30-day check-in call and a 90-day strategy review.
Is launchpad a one-off cost or ongoing?
It's a one-off payment of £4,500 + VAT with no ongoing commitment. Afterwards you can move into ignition, liftoff, mission control or b&h+.
What's the £1,500 credit?
If you start liftoff, mission control or b&h+ within 30 days of delivery, we credit £1,500 of your launchpad fee across the term. The credit covers our fees only, not third-party costs such as ad spend, production or software. It is limited to one credit per agency and can't be combined with other discounts.
What if I already have some marketing activity running?
Stage four is an audit of what's already there: your brand, tech stack and analytics setup. It shows what is working and should be kept, and where activity is being wasted so you can refocus it.

let's define your strategy.
