A growth consultancy. London, Ontario.

Founders. Not marketers.

Three operators who built and scaled their own businesses first. Strategy, creative, execution. All under one roof.

Why we exist

Most agencies fail before the first ad runs.

73% churn in 90 days. Because they sell ads, not businesses. We do it backwards.

Most clients don't have an ad problem. They have an offer problem. Pricing, positioning, sales process. All upstream of the ad account. So we fix the offer first.

The team

Three operators. One team.

Strategy, creative, and paid media under one roof. We have each built the thing we now build for you.

How we're different

Two ways to spend a marketing budget.

Typical Agency

  • Takes your money, runs ads, sends a report
  • Never looks at your offer, pricing, or sales process
  • Blames the algorithm when results drop
  • Locks you into 6 to 12 month contracts
  • Outsources creative to stock photos and templates
  • Measures vanity metrics: impressions, clicks, reach

Launch & Found

  • Audits your entire business before touching an ad account
  • Fixes your offer, pricing, and sales process first
  • Produces all creative in-house: photo, video, drone
  • Month-to-month. We recommend 3 months. Never locked in
  • Agrees on the exact numbers we'll move, in writing. We prove results
  • Some clients never run ads and still grow

How we work

Four pillars.

01

Strategy that aligns

Audit before spend.

02

Systems that convert

Pages, funnels, AI.

03

Execution that scales

Paid, creative, weekly.

04

Results you can see

Cost per customer, customer value, return on ad spend. Monthly.
