Help for businesses to launch into their market

With entrepreneurship booming, three business people from North Wales have launched a service to help new ventures get their marketing right from day one.

Graphic designer Sharon O’Brien, web designer Rhys Taylor and PR consultant Claire Savage have joined forces to set up Biz Launchpad, a one-stop shop for new business marketing.

Packages include a logo, branded business stationery, website, PR and marketing materials. The service is set up so that businesses deal with just one point of contact, who project manages their launch.

Claire Savage said: “It’s so easy when starting out to be pulled in lots of different directions. From the finance, to finding premises, purchasing equipment, there are a lot of things drawing on your time and attention.

“Our packages aim to take marketing and web design off the business owner’s shoulders. By working together we make sure that the website and marketing materials build a cohesive brand to give clients a professional edge.”

The trio also turn around their off-the-shelf launch packages within 30 days. Graphic designer Sharon O’Brien said: “Once we have the brief, the three of us collaborate in order to complete the project within a month. We work closely to make sure that everything ties together – the website, logo and marketing materials.

“We also create bespoke packages for customers who need something different to our standard packages. We quote our timescale for that on a per project basis.”

The three say the idea for Biz Launchpad came from noticing businesses struggle to get clients with poor quality marketing materials.

Web designer Rhys Taylor explained: “When you start-up money is tight, but you have to let people know what you do or there will be no customers. We’ve created this service to help new businesses and we’ve priced it at a start-up level.

“I’ve been in business for 10 years, and in that time I’ve seen some of my clients grow from one-man bands to companies with multi-million turnovers. We are offering our services at value prices for a reason: We trust that the quality of our services will keep businesses coming back for more.”
