How we help brands as their Growth partner

Launch is a growth partner combining commercial advisory and full-service digital expertise, offering a unique market blend that goes beyond traditional agencies focused solely on digital execution.

Business Consulting

We bring real-world commercial experience to help shape your growth strategy — whether you're preparing to scale, attract investors, expand into new markets, or plan your exit. Our consultants work directly with founders and executive teams to align business goals with marketing execution, ensuring every move is made with purpose and long-term impact.

Digital Partner

We operate as your end-to-end digital growth partner — whether you’re outsourcing your entire marketing function or augmenting your existing team. Our full in-house performance team includes specialists in paid media, growth strategy, SEO, social media, and website development. From lead generation to long-term retention, we build digital ecosystems that drive consistent, measurable business outcomes.

Creative Partner

In a world flooded with AI-generated content, authentic storytelling matters more than ever. Few agencies can create high-quality content at scale — we can. With a team of 7 full-time videographers and photographers, plus in-house graphic designers, animators, and motion graphic specialists, we bring your brand to life through visuals that build trust and drive action. Every performance package we offer includes content creation — because great marketing starts with great content.

Our why

Proven Frameworks That Drive Real-World Growth

We’re not just marketers — we’re founders. We’ve built, scaled, and exited companies, worked closely with private equity and venture capital firms, and helped generate over $750M in direct client sales. Launch was founded by Ben, a storyteller and videographer who shaped the agency’s digital offering around content — because creativity is the engine of online growth.

In 2022, Launch merged with Kiran’s commercial consultancy to form something rare: a hybrid agency where creative, performance, and business consulting work seamlessly together. The result? Brands grow faster, scale smarter, and no longer need multiple external partners to succeed.
